Materials Methods: Ninety-eight female rats (Sprague Dawley) were divided into donor recipient groups, with donors further seven subgroups, including negative control, Cd-exposed, EBN-treated, EDTA-treated groups. Embryos from transferred rats, Cd administered for 4 weeks given only last 5 days group. Results:...

IMC has been reported to influence embryo implantation negatively in animals including rats. While EBN known have a potential protective effect against reproductive toxicity, there is limited study on the of toxicity reproduction. This aimed ascertain whether pretreatment with natural substance, Edible Bird’s Nest (EBN), will reduce IMC-induced pregnant Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats divided into five equal groups were treated and as follows: G1 = Control, G2 (4.33 mg/kg), G3 + mg/kg 60 G4 90 G5...

Background and Aim: Electroejaculation (EE) is widely used for semen collection in bulls but raises concerns about animal welfare due to potential pain stress. The physiological impact of EE on remains a topic debate, with previous studies yielding inconclusive results. This study aims objectively evaluate stress responses subjected using electroencephalography (EEG) alongside hormonal, behavioral, metabolite profiling. Materials Methods: Eight were three replicates, behavioral data...

Myxofibrosarcoma of the spermatic cord is a rare form para-testicular tumor that usually presents with painless scrotal or inguinal swelling. Ultrasonography revealed solid mass in scrotum, suggesting tumor, and exploration via high incision large mass. Finally, pathologic examination low-grade sarcoma favoring myxoid fibrosarcoma. Here, we present first reported case myxofibrosarcoma Ethiopia 54-year-old male patient reviewed available literature on topic.

This study was conducted to evaluate the response of Bali bulls (Bos javanicus) different semen collection methods and their effects on fresh post-thawed quality. The employed were electro-ejaculation (EE), transrectal massage (RM) RM followed by EE (RM + EE). A total 25 untrained (age between 2 4 years old) subjected methods. Fresh samples from all evaluated for volume, pH, general motility, live/dead ratio abnormality using conventional method. For frozen collected 10 bulls,...
