This study aimed to evaluate the effect of oregano oil on intestinal and liver morphometry yellow tail tetra, Astyanax altiparanae. Fish (1.46 ± 0.09 g) were kept in a 60-L aquaria, at stocking density 0.5 fi sh L-1. Six diets containing varying amounts evaluated (0.0; 0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0 2.5 g kg-1). At end 90 days, euthanised. Four intestines four livers collected per treatment, which xed Bouin embedded resin. For height width folds, absorption surface area thickness muscular layer positive...
Hemidactylus mabouia is an Africa oviparous lizard that now distributed on other continents and has been introduced to Brazil. In the majority of reptiles, females have ability store spermatozoa in specialized regions genital tract. Considering H. storage restricted region uterine tube, this study we utilized optical transmission electron microscopy investigate processes related large number vagina. Although it was possible visualize vagina, ultrastructural analysis revealed significant...
Rodrigues Sartori, S. S., Nogueira, K. O. P. C., Rocha, A. and Neves, C. 2011. Morphology of the stomach tropical house gecko Hemidactylus mabouia (Squamata: Gekkonidae). —Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 92: 179–186. is a common species in Brazil, which facilitates its use research several areas allows display it as benchmark for studies with reptiles. To study morphology H. mabouia, we carried out anatomical, histological histochemical analysis. The 'J' shaped can be divided into oral fundic...
Heavy metals appear in the aquatic environment mainly due to anthropogenic activities, such as mining. The impacts of environmental pollution by can be identified and quantified target organs animals, which tend accumulate pollutants. In November 2015, ore tailings dam Mariana-MG ruptured, dumping toxic mud into Doce River Basin, with great mortality fish other organisms, addition long-term effects water soil contamination.
Os mirídeos têm papel importante sobre a economia brasileira devido à sua influência diversas culturas agrícolas. Devido isso, este artigo foi desenvolvido visando apresentar as espécies de Miridae que possuem associações ou potenciais com plantas no Brasil. Para foram realizadas consultas artigos, livros e coleções museus. Ao todo, encontradas 168 associadas plantas; estes dados manipulados para elaboração gráficos representando interações entre percevejos hospedeiras
In view of the great diversity dietary habits among bats, and need for morphological adaptations in their digestive system, this study characterized compared morphology small (SI) large intestines (LI) bats Artibeus planirostris (Phyllostomidae: Stenodermatinae) Diphylla ecaudata Desmodontinae), interpret morphologies context differences. We hypothesized that diet could influence characteristics these two species by means a more complex intestinal A. than D. ecaudata. The were histologically...
Different lignocellulosic biomasses are found worldwide and each country has its own important industrial crop that can be converted into high-value products, such as ethanol. Therefore, evaluation of new to used in biorefineries is decrease the dependence on non-renewable resources guarantee sustainable development. This work evaluated Brachiaria brizantha, a grass commonly animal forage, standard biomass for 2G-ethanol, sugarcane bagasse. The chemical compositions both were determined...
The nervous and endocrine systems jointly control intestinal movements, secretions of their glands also participate the processes nutrient digestion absorption. Therefore, central objective this study was to verify existence a possible relationship between number cells ganglia submucosal myenteric plexuses in small intestine adult D. aurita. utilized staining techniques were Grimelius, modified Masson-Fontana, direct immunoperoxidase H-E. Argyrophillic, argentaffin insulin immunoreactive do...
Abstract Due to the ecological importance and given scarcity of studies on digestive morphology primates, anatomical aspects body tract, as well food content were analysed for marmosets Callithrix sp. (hybrids exotic species) captured in forest fragments Minas Gerais ‐ Brazil, during dry rainy seasons, considering that seasonal variations affect availability quality diet. Data such weight length, thoracic abdominal perimeters analysed, no significant difference was found between seasons. In...
RESUMO Objetivo: Este trabalho avaliou a modulação da microbiota gastrointestinal, do perfil de ácidos orgânicos e lipídeos em ratas Wistar ovariectomizadas, sendo que algumas receberam dieta suplementada com 6% fruto-oligossacarídeos inulina, partir produto base yacon, outras não. Métodos: Analisou-se o peso ceco, pH orgânicos, conteúdo cecal, colesterol total frações. Resultados: No grupo recebeu durante todo experimento ocorreu benéfica intestinal função fermentação dos...
Abstract A complex network of nerve fibers the enteric nervous system and enteroendocrine cells is known to regulate gastrointestinal tract. The distribution frequency argyrophil, argentaffin serotonin immunoreactive endocrine submucosal myenteric ganglia were studied in small intestine capybara Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris , aiming verify existence possible numerical correlations between ganglia. Fragments duodenum, jejunum ileum adult animals collected processed according routine histological...
Abstract Morphofunctional characteristics of the large intestine are rarely explored to understand physiology, behavior and ecology neotropical primates. In this study, we analyzed histometric parameters hybrid marmosets ( Callithrix sp.) captured in forest fragments Viçosa‐Brazil, under seasonal interference. These animals were predominantly insectivorous rainy season gummivores dry season. Large collected processed according histological methods stained with toluidine blue for general...
