Lung tissue deposition and antibacterial efficiency of nebulized intravenous amikacin (AMK) were compared in anesthetized ventilated piglets suffering from a bronchopneumonia produced by the intrabronchial inoculation Escherichia coli. AMK was administered 24 hours after either through an ultrasonic nebulizer (45 mg · kg−1, n = 10) or infusion (15 8). Piglets killed 1 hour second administration performed first one, lung concentrations bacterial burden assessed on multiple specimens. The...
Abstract The aim of this study was to estimate genetic parameters for different precocious calving criteria and their relationship with reproductive, growth, carcass feed efficiency in Nellore cattle using the single‐step genomic BLUP . reproductive traits used were probability ( PPC ) at 24 24), 26 26), 28 28) 30 30) months age, stayability STAY scrotal circumference 455 days age SC 455). Growth such as weights 240 (W240) (W455) adult weight AW used. Rib eye area REA ), subcutaneous fat...
Qualitative characteristics of breast meat broilers fed diets supplemented with different concentrations (0; 0.3 and 0.5mg kg-1) selenium in the form selenomethionine sodium selenite were analyzed. A total 1050 one-day-old male Cobb broiler chicks arranged factorially at random to five treatments (two x two sources + control diet without addition selenium) 7 replications thirty birds each received an isonitrogenous isocaloric all phases according their ages (1-21, 22-35, 36-42 days). At 42...
Lung deposition of intravenous cephalosporins is low. The lung equivalent doses ceftazidime administered either intravenously or by ultrasonic nebulization using nitrogen-oxygen helium-oxygen as the carrying gas aerosol was compared in ventilated piglets with and without experimental bronchopneumonia.Five noninfected lungs 5 Pseudomonas aeruginosa bronchopneumonia received 33 mg/kg intravenously. Ten 10 others P. 50 nebulization. In each group, ventilator operated half animals a 65%/35%...
Hypericum perforatum is an important medicinal plant containing numerous biologically active compounds. The effect of chitosan elicitation on xanthone biosynthesis in calli and cell suspension cultures H. subsp. angustifolium was evaluated. Elicited showed increase production a simultaneous decrease flavonoid production. Chitosan also induced the 1,7-dihydroxyxanthone (euxanthone) cadensin G, which were not detected either nor non-elicited cultures. 1,7-Dihydroxyxanthone part (21%) released...
Desmosine and isodesmosine are products of elastin breakdown which candidate biomarkers to measure lung destruction in COPD. Data exist on the burden desmosines urine plasma COPD but long-term changes have never been investigated. We determined desmosine levels over 14 months patients with type ZZ alpha-1-antitryspsin deficiency-related Urines for determination were collected from 11 ex-smokers moderate/severe emphysema at monthly intervals months. Spirometry gas transfer assessed baseline...
The aim of this study was to characterize the breast meat turkeys affected by different degrees severity (normal [NORM], moderate [MOD], and severe [SEV]) white striping (WS) myopathy, as well evaluate influence myopathy on quality. Twenty-nine samples pectoralis major muscles each treatment were obtained from Nicholas breed male female turkeys, reared slaughtered in center-west region Brazil. whole breasts used for macroscopic classification, weight evaluation, morphometric measurements....

Pleurotus ostreatus Lectin (POL) is a 353 amino acid chain lectin that can be purified from the fruiting bodies of very well-known and widely diffused edible oyster mushrooms (P. ostreatus). The has been partially characterized by different groups and, although it was crystallized about 20 years ago, its 3D structure details interactions with carbohydrates are still unknown. This paper reports ligand-binding properties POL. We have determined X-ray apo-protein mushroom recombinant protein in...
This study aimed to characterize the effects of wooden breast myopathy (WBM) on quality broiler chicken meat. Normal samples (absence myopathy), moderate-degree (hardness only in one area fillet) and severe-degree throughout were classified. In macroscopic analysis, pectoral muscle affected by WBM showed, general, pale color with stiff, irregular reddish regions (suffusions petechiae), presence white striations. microscopic was characterized loss polygonal aspect fibers. Samples moderate...
The objective of the present study was to characterize possible variations in quality wooden chicken breast meat during freezing for 12 mo, order prove whether shelf life recommended by industry allows storage that type without compromising its consumption. Three hundred samples male Cobb 500 broilers slaughtered at 42 d age were used. Part (n = 20 normal—control group; n moderate degree; severe degree) analyzed on day collection (beginning), previously kept under refrigeration (4°C). other...
