Honeybees' gut microbiota can provide new valuable access into the pathogenesis-related factors included in infections. Hence, we researched presence and comparison of groups control Nosema spp.-infected honeybee colonies through high-throughput sequencing 16S rRNA. As newest approach apiary management, hypothesize that EM® probiotic for bees could have an important role therapeutic immunomodulatory effects on colonies. The aim this study was to estimate its impact composition adult...
The histopathological structure as well content and distribution of mucosubstances in the mid-gut mucosa honeybee (Apis mellifera) treated with phyto-pharmacological preparation Nozevit was studied. For purpose describing neutral, acid sulphate mucopolysaccharides we used Periodic Acid-Schiff Reaction (PAS), Alcian blue-specific (pH = 1.0 2.5) Toluidine staining. Based on our results have concluded that herbal induces production secretion mucous from epithelial layer bees, additionally coats...
Waters can be polluted by heavy metals which are accumulated and concentrated fish ; therefore they show the degree of environmental pollution. The aim this paper was to determine concentrations in water, mud organs, whether these allowed accordance with normative provisions and, considering pollution metals, if meat is hygienically safe food animal origin. Concentrations (lead, chromium, manganese, iron, copper, zinc) were determined different organs (liver, kidney, intestine, milt skin +...
Control of the nosema disease poses a major challenge, and therefore, treatment this serious parasitic using natural preparations could be great benefit. The aim study was to test performance zeolite clinoptilolite as curative measure against honeybee colonies (Apis mellifera L.) naturally infected by Nosema ceranae. histopathological structure, content distribution mucosubstances histochemical activity aminopeptidase non-specific esterase in midgut mucosa honeybees originating from fed...
Exotic pet medicine is rapidly evolving, with reptiles becoming increasingly popular animals. Yet, there are only a few literature reports on veterinary perception of kept as pets. The aim the study was to assess opinions and knowledge Croatian veterinarians-to-be about their welfare. questionnaire survey conducted in academic year 2019-2020 included students all six years integrated undergraduate graduate at Faculty Veterinary Medicine, University Zagreb. First-year were surveyed twice,...
Summary The histochemical localization of non‐specific esterase, alkaline and acid phosphatase as well aminopeptidase in the intestine free‐living common two‐banded sea bream ( D iplodus vulgaris ) was investigated. Fish were caught near town Z adar A driatic Sea, C roatia). Samples pyloric caeca three parts proper (anterior, middle posterior) used for description aminopeptidase. Non‐specific esterase activity found cytoplasm enterocytes all investigated intestinal segments. stronger...
The histochemical activity of aminopeptidase and non-specific esterase, both important enzymes intermediate metabolism in the mid gut honeybees (Apis mellifera), was investigated. Nosema disease control poses a major challenge, thus, treatment this serious parasitic using natural phyto-pharmacological preparations could be great besnefit. Additionally, effects residues their by-products honey wax represent an environmental concern are another reason for reducing use conventional chemical...
In this study, we examined the gastrointestinal tract of European barracuda (Sphyraena sphyraena) living in Adriatic Sea near Dubrovnik, Croatia. The study aimed to identify presence and distribution four digestive enzymes: alkaline phosphatase, aminopeptidase, acid non-specific esterase. We found that phosphatase activity was present brush border enterocytes all investigated intestinal segments. strongest pyloric caeca but strong only basal part villi anterior middle posterior segment, had...
Investigations were carried out on the early developmental stages of softmouth trout (Salmothymus obtusirostris, Heckel, 1851), taken from a hatchery in Proložac near River Vrljika, Croatia.Samples collected every two days 10-56 post-hatching (dph), fixed 10% buffered formalin, embedded paraffin, cut into 10 μm thick serial longitudinal sections and stained with Hematoxylin Eosin, Toluidin Blue, Alcian Blue-specific (pH = 2.5) Blue Alizarin Red.The number myomeres dorsal epaxial musculature...
Kvaliteta stelje je među glavnim čimbenicima o kojima ovise dobrobit i proizvodnost tovnih pilića. Intenzivan rast razvoj pilića u tovu rezultiraju produljenim razdobljima odmora, što kombinaciji s lošom kvalitetom pogoduje pojavi kontaktnog dermatitisa na jastučićima nogu, tarzalnim zglobovima prsima. Kontaktni dermatitis negativno utječe zdravlje pilića, kvalitetu zdravstvenu ispravnost mesa te ekonomiku proizvodnje. Glavni uzroci su vlaga kemijske supstance stelji koje djeluju...
