N a preliminary note on the effect of X rays rats, an inherited anemia was I reported among offspring one irradiated animals (SLADIC-SIMIC et al. 1963).The present paper presents data our studies genetic transmission this disease and phenotypic characteristics mutant animals.

Abstract The parasitic nematode Ascaris suum is an economically significant worm that infects pigs and causes health issues economic losses in pig farming. intestine of A. a long, straight tube runs from the mouth to anus can be colonized by bacteria. Several bacteria have been studied for their potential antinematocidal effects. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), soil bacterium known produce many toxic crystal proteins (Cry), emerging as promising candidate control. Treatment with all tested Bt...

Abstract Salmonella spp. infections pose a significant threat to both animal and public health, with various serotypes affecting wide range of hosts. This case report investigates an outbreak salmonellosis on chinchilla farm in Serbia, focusing the clinical, pathological, microbiological aspects infection. Two cadavers were brought Faculty Veterinary Medicine, University Belgrade. The animals exhibited anorexia, apathy, diarrhea, abortions before succumbing Pathohistological findings...

Selection for "fast" preadult development rate among the progeny of flies collected in a natural population Drosophila melanogaster produced line that developed more rapidly than selected "slow" rate. Assays enzyme activity levels showed activities alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, alcohol and malic were higher fast slow line, but superoxide dismutase was lower line. Differences frequencies spacer-length phenotypes X chromosome-linked rRNA genes (rDNA), which between lines during...

This paper describes liver cirrhosis in 35 fallow deer infected with the giant fluke, as well distribution, origin, and role of myofibroblasts its development. In deer, stripes connective tissue are wound around groups degenerated regenerated lobuli. tissue, lymphocytes macrophages which often contain parasite hematin also present. The walls bile ducts thickened, epithelium multiplied mucous metaplasia, desquamated cells, eggs brown pigment present their lumen. livers cirrhosis,...

Abstract Blood smears stained with Diff Quick are the initial tool for cytological diagnosis of Haemogregarina spp. However, development sensitive and specific molecular methods enabled detection identification parasites in sample to clarify evolutionary relationships adeleorinid within Apicomplexa . The current study was attempted order perform investigation hemoparasites thirty European pond turtles ( Emys orbicularis) from quarantine section at Belgrade Zoo, which have been found poor...

In a previous study we tested the sensitivity of ovaries 8, 17 and 90-day old rats to doses 50 r, 100 200 r 400 total body X irradiation. We found that oocytes eight-day were sensitive lowest dose used (Pavić, Mirković Sladić-Simić, 1961; Zivković, Pavić Martinovitch, 1962). The object present investigation has been changes in progeny female exposed mated with normal males.

This paper reports on an outbreak of fumonisin toxicosis in a stable with 100 horses. Twenty-one horses were affected and fifteen died within month. The animals not febrile exhibited poor appetite, somnolence, head pressing, blindness, ataxia, lethargy, seizures, ending death. post mortem examination the one 18-month-old colt revealed large, bilateral, slightly asymmetrical large areas necrosis cerebral white matter. lesions involved frontal, parietal occipital lobes only. Histological...

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a disorder characterized by deposition in the wall of cerebral blood vessels. The deposits occur frequently vessels frontal, parietal and occipital cortex.To examine characteristics CAA classified according to Vonsattel scale elderly dogs histologically immunohistochemically as well semi-quantitative evaluation different segments brain.The brains 36 breeds sexes, which had been routinely necropsied, were used divided into two groups: from 1 5 10 18 years...

Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy modified clinoptilolite (Minazel Plus®, MZ) as a mycotoxin adsorbent for preventing negative effects ochratoxin A (OTA) on performance, pathohistological changes, and OTA residue in eggs laying hens. Methods: Forty eight (n = 48) hens (27 weeks old) were equally divided into six groups depending type addition allocated following experimental treatments 7 weeks: E-I group-1 mg/kg OTA; E-II group 0.25 E-III 1 + 0.2% MZ; E-IV...

Although Mycobacterium spp. often cause disease in domestic birds (chickens and companion birds), there are few data on avian tuberculosis wild populations, especially of prey. We describe here a case young adult female, free-living Eurasian griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) that was found dead. Granulomas were grossly evident the lungs at autopsy, suspected. Ziehl-Neelsen staining revealed large numbers intracellular acid-fast-positive bacteria within granulomas. Examination Löwenstein-Jensen...

Five Drosophila subobscura populations from south-eastern Europe were investigated with respect to chromosomal inversion polymorphism. They belong central European and their gene arrangement frequencies are in accordance latitudinal variation observed this species. The new complex A2+8+9, found one of the analysed, may be specific for southern Balkan refugium. A general tendency exhibit some characteristics was autosomal standard arrangements. Fünf Populationen von suboscura aus dem Süwesten...

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence organic and inorganic Fe supplementation on red blood picture, immune response quantity iron in organs broiler chickens. trial conducted 200 'Arbor Acres' chickens randomly alloted four equal groups. Birds from all groups were fed standard feed, supplemented with 40 mg/kg originating different sources: Group I (FeSO4), II (Fe bounded yeast), III (ferrous ascorbate) IV (iron chelate). From each group, 10 birds sacrificed 21st, 35th 42nd...

This experimental study was conducted to determine the ability of a novel mycotoxins detoxification agent (MR) at concentration 0.2% reduce toxicity aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) or T-2 toxin, alone in combination, and examine its effect on performance, pathohistological changes (PH) residue these toxins tissues broiler chicks. A total 96 chicks were divided into eight equal groups: group C, which served as control (without any additives); MR, received (supplemented with 0.2%); E-I (0.1 mg AFB1/kg...

In this study the resistance to mechanical, thermal, and radiation trauma in four inbred strains of mice (AKR, BALB/c, CBA, C57B1/6) was compared with degree genetic resemblance, by analyzing allozyme variabilities these strains. It shown that highest resemblance among CBA AKR strains, which correlated a similar trauma. On other hand, BALB/c C57B1/6 expressed significant differences, both genetically respect responses The hypothesis is introduced determination based on: a) polygenic control...

Out of the total number canine tumors examined at Department pathology based on biopsy and section materials over last five years skin mammary gland were proved to be two largest groups diagnosed in 33.4% 36% cases, respectively. Cutaneous 211 i.e., 123 (58.3%) male dogs 88 (41.7%) bitches, different breeds, average 7 old. Among tumors, 32 types cutaneous neoplasms diagnosed, with epithelial melanocytic being most predominant, followed by hematopoietic mesenchymal soft tissues. In our...
