چکیده

The study was aimed at evaluating the frequency of spontaneous sister chromatid exchange in Polish White Improved goats (Capra hircus). The mean number of SCEs/cell was 2.73 +/- 1.84. The effect of sex and age on SCE incidence was also investigated. No statistically significant differences in the number of SCEs/cell were observed between the males and females. On the other hand, age was found to significantly influence SCE frequency. A lower SCE frequency was observed in younger goats. A positive correlation between chromosome length and SCE number was identified. The longer the chromosome, the more exchanges occurred. The highest number of SCEs was observed in the interstitial region, the lowest in the distal area.

Chromosomal appearance of 12 Holstein bulls selected for artificial inseminations were examined bysister chromatid exchanges (SCEs). For differential staining of sister chromatids bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)was inoculated in lymphocyte cultures. The mean, maximum and minimum number of SCE per cell weredetermined 6.8 ± 1.14, 8.3 ± 1.1 and 5.7 ± 1.5, respectively. SCE frequencies of all animals were...

Biochemical and Mineral Profile of South Eastern Algerian Desert Goats (Capra hircus)

An experiment was conducted in Algerian desert goats to study the effect of age and season on blood biochemical and mineral profile during different physiological stages of the goats. Serum Ca, Mg and Na levels were significantly high at birth and decreases as the age advanced. The season had a significant effect on the decreased levels of Ca, Mg and K and inversely on the increased levels of N...
