Poultry production is facing severe losses due to the development of resistance against most available antimicrobials in treating various diseases. Moreover, social stigma use antibiotics also there. As, welfare animals, environment, food safety and hygiene are important factors. Something needed that would meet all these stigmas still be able provide best growth, immunity diseases, peak production, disease treatment reduce economic pressure. In recent era, biological products replace...
Aeromonas is recognized as a human pathogen following ingestion of contaminated food and water. One major problem in identification that certain species are phenotypically very similar. The antimicrobial resistance another significant challenge worldwide. We therefore aimed to use mass spectrometry technology for discrimination screen the hydrophila (A. hydrophila). A total 150 chicken meat water samples were cultured, then, isolates identified biochemically by Vitek® 2 Compact system....
The present study investigated the adverse effects of arsenic and chromium in broilers ascertained role vitamin E bentonite alleviating their harmful effects. For this purpose, we experimented on 180 one-day-old broiler chickens. feed was administered to chicks groups 2, 6, 7, 8, 9 @ (270 mg.kg-1 BW). Groups 3, were (50 4, received (150 BW), 5, (5%), respectively. Group 1 kept control. All treated with showed a significant (p < 0.05) decline erythrocytic parameters experimental days 21 42....
Toxoplasmosis, neosporosis, and brucellosis are devastating diseases causing infectious abortion and, therefore, substantial economic losses in farm animals. Toxoplasmosis neosporosis caused by the intracellular protozoan parasites Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) Neospora caninum (N. caninum), respectively. Brucellosis is a bacterial disease numerous Brucella species multiple hosts. also considered foodborne zoonotic diseases. In current study, specific antibodies to T. N. caninum, addition...
Bacillus cereus is one of the foodborne pathogens that incriminated in several outbreaks worldwide. The objectives current study were first to determine prevalence B. cereus-contaminated milk and dairy products retailed Egypt. Secondly, antimicrobial resistance profiling virulence-associated genes recovered isolates assessed. Finally, natural eco-friendly additives such as d-tryptophan l-ascorbic acid used for controlling viability spores. A total 200 samples including market raw milk,...
The prevalence of Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma gondii antibodies in raw milk samples was estimated different ruminants Egyptian governorates. Of 13 bulk tested by ELISA, five (38.5%) were positive for to N. caninum, two additionally T. gondii, resulting a seroprevalence 15.4% both co-infection. In individual (n = 171) from the same bulks, detected 25.7%, 14%, 3.5% had parasites. A strong correlation between OD values relevant found (Pearson r 0.9759) moderately 0.5801). Risk factor...
Cattle play an important role in the food chain as a major milk and meat producer. Helminths affect health production of livestock which need to be controlled efficiently economically. The high usage anthelmintic drugs has increased resistance all available classes resulting failed treatment options economic losses. Herbs, may better for animal safety, are among best candidates control these parasites. For this purpose, research experiment was conducted. Twelve Sahiwal heifers were used...
Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is one of the dangerous diseases poultry that affects bursa Fabricius, which an important organ bird’s immune system. IBD virus resistant to many drugs, making its control difficult. Vaccination in practice for a long time worldwide IBD, but secondary issues like vaccine failure and lower efficacy lead their reduced use field. Multiple medicines are currently used, phytochemicals have emerged as promising agents controlling IBD. The drugs be developed should...
Rabbit meat and offal are considered valuable sources of high biological value animal protein. is rich in essential amino acids, low cholesterol, contains considerable amounts trace elements such as calcium, magnesium, zinc. However, the potential contribution rabbit transmission foodborne pathogens Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) Salmonella spp. neglected. Therefore, this study was conducted first to investigate prevalence rates S. retailed at Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. Second,...
Background: The consumption of meat is a fundamental aspect global diets, providing essential nutrients and proteins vital for human nutrition. However, ensuring the safety products has become progressively challenging due to potential contamination by toxic heavy metals pathogenic microorganisms. Aim: This study focuses on assessing prevalence Lead (Pb), Mercury (Hg), Arsenic (As), Cadmium (Cd), in chilled frozen Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. Methods: A total 30 samples, comprising 15 beef...
Introduction Fascioliasis is a parasitic foodborne disease caused by the liver flukes, Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica . Such parasites cause serious illness in numerous domestic animals also humans. Following infection, parasite secretes variety of molecules that immediately interact with host immunity to establish successful infection. These include cathepsin L peptidase 1 (CatL1); highly investigated diagnostic vaccine antigens using various animal models. However, few studies have...
