Stray dogs are the ones not microchipped, which live across streets and other public surfaces unattended, so represent a serious public-health problem. Lack of human support for stray causes range problems - from territorial status to ensuring food. Such conditions force them activate self-preservation mechanism return natural behavioral patterns. Regarding fact that several thousands were recorded in observed regions Bosnia Herzegovina period 2008 – 2009, it was obvious such could endanger...

Coal mine Tusnica is located in South-West part of Bosnia and Herzegovina the municipality Livno. consists two surface coal mines. The first one brown deposit called Drage second lignite Table. shows increased levels natural radionuclides. highest absorbed dose rate recorded center Tusnica-Drage (500 nGy h-1) as result content uranium radium (average specific activity U-238 623 ± 23 Bq kg-1 Ra-226 1191 5 kg-1). Levels radionuclides vicinity agricultural soil (about 3 km centre mine) are...

The laboratory rat, as important biomedical model, was often fed with unconventional diet usually made up of products from the bakery industry. Such consisted insufficient caloric and nutritionally unbalanced meals could cause unreliable results in research. study investigates effects malnutrition on haematological profile rats.
 is performed Wistar male female rats which were for 4 weeks exclusively ad libidum. following hematological parameters observed peripheral blood smears: red...

The objective of this study was to evaluate potential unfavourable side effects, especially on the blood corpuscles, experimental calcium aluminate and silicate cements that are applied subdermally or directly tooth pulp.In study, fifty-four Wistar rats were separated into two groups (n=27 in each group).The effects dental haematological parameters observed three times (after 7, 15 30 days): erythrocytes, haemoglobin, haematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, haemoglobin concentration,...

The paper describes radioactivity monitoring and radiological risk assessment procedures for the population environment in three villages located around coal-fired power plant. dose assessments were performed after long-term that was carried out production process vicinity of plant Kakanj, Bosnia Herzegovina. estimated annual effective doses living observed range 1.89–2.13 mSv. most significant contributions delivered from ingestion food water (0.55–0.63 mSv y−1); external exposure building...

Various studies confirm the biocompatibility and efficacy of clips for certain target tissues, but without any comparative analysis hematological parameters. Therefore, we conducted a study to assess possible association implantation titanium plastic in neurocranium with morphological changes blood cells experimental animals.As control, peripheral smears were taken before surgery from 12 adult dogs that divided into two groups. After placing neurocranium, first group was analyzed on seventh...

The study of crystalluria is great importance for the detection substances endogenous or exogenous origin that are present inthe urine, to a greater lesser extent. Urinary sediment crystals can provide valuable answers assessment therapeutic efficacy, as well congenital and/or acquired pathophysiological conditions. nature observed informs clinician biochemical irregularity urine. Crystalluria clinical significance only if it has been studied under good test conditions (sample selection,...

CBPP Kakanj is one of the most important Coal Burning Power Plants in Bosnia and Herzegovina (producing power 450 MW, waste storage site 5 000 tons). Mapping measured gamma-dose rate has been performed with goal identifying hot spots area 3×3 km surrounding Kakanj, special emphasis on (1×1 km). Maximum was 140 nGy h-1 210 h-1. Average levels natural radionuclide agricultural soil samples vicinity are: for 238U 41 ± 4 Bq kg-1, 232Th 32 1 226Ra 27 2 kg-1 40K 486 9 kg-1. Obtained results...

Distribution of radionuclides depends on various factors, and milk processing into cheese is recommended as one the significant measures radiation protection during radioactive contamination environment. A total 16 (soft hard) samples were examined using HPGe gamma‐ray spectrometry to obtain 137 Cs 40 K activity concentrations. The Pearson's correlation coefficients between determined (0.73, 0.68, 0.19, −0.23), followed by determination distribution from cow two types cheeses food retention...

This study aimed to assess the microbi- ological quality of Livno cheese and milk as its raw material. It also investigated potential differences in microorganism presence quantity between under- stand impact processing on micro- biological quality. A total 15 ripened samples were ana- lysed for Salmonella spp. Listeria monocytogenes. Detection quan- tification performed following microorganisms: coagulase-positive staphy- lococci, aerobic mesophilic bacteria (for samples), E. coli,...

In this paper, the impact of increased levels uranium and radium in soil on activity radiation-hygienic validity animal products ruminants was investigated.Region around Livno town is placed coal layer with creased compared other coals used Bosnia Herzegovina. As a result mixing between matrix soil, value average absorbed dose rate at 1 m above ground (144 nGy h-1) measured. The highest 238U 226Ra samples measured sheep cheese (0.070 Bq kg-1 for 0.207 226Ra). these two radionuclides rest...

in broiler’s small intestine. Investigation were carried out on isolated smooth muscle of the circular and longitudinal layer broilers intestine (strip dimension 3-4 mm x 2 cm). The strips placed an organ bath. mechanical activity preparations recorded via isotonic force transducer coupled to a pen recorder. This was done following addition serotonin (nonselective 5-HT agonist), 2-Me-5HT (5-HT3B agonist) Y-25130-hydrochloride (selective 5-HT3B antagonist). research established presence...

The aim of the study was to determine possible presence adrenergic receptors in smooth musculature small and large intestines heavy hybrid turkey, using different concentrations non-selective receptor agonists, noradrenaline, under vitro conditions. research carried out on 24 fattening turkeys. Tests circular longitudinal layers muscular duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum colon organ isolation apparatus, noradrenaline hydrogentartarate solution, were tested. has established within effect layer...

The aim of the study was to determine whether calcium chloride affects proliferation osteoblast like cells in a sex-dependent manner, as well most effective concentration on cells, vitro conditions. Bone marrow used biological material from young adult rats, both sexes, aged 90-95 days. Six different concentrations were tested, determining numerical representation after 24 and 48 hours. Test results mean values between males females hours, indicate significant differences with probability P
