Aim: The experiment was conducted to study the total seminal plasma protein (TSPP) and heparin-binding proteins (HBPs) in relation to initial semen quality of buffalo bull. Materials and Methods: Semen from two Murrah buffalo bulls (bull no. 605 and 790) with mass motility of ≥3+ were used for the study and categorized into three groups (Group IMass motility 3+, Group IIMass motility 4+ and Gro...

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...

Selection or replacement of a herd bull is an important decision for cow-calf producers. To justify the price paid for a bull, cattlemen may utilize several criteria. They must also determine if the specific selection criteria used add or detract from the value of a particular animal. The study reported here evaluated 13 years of data presented to bull buyers at a graded bull auction in Florida...

Study Design: Descriptive Cross-sectional study. Setting: Department Pulmonology, Sahiwal Medical...

OBJECTIVE This experiment investigated the effect of isonitrogenous replacement of groundnut cake (GNC) by rice gluten meal (RGM) and maize gluten meal (MGM) at 75% level on nutrient intake, apparent digestibility, growth performance and related blood constituents in growing Sahiwal cattle. METHODS Eighteen Sahiwal calves were divided into three groups, based on average body weight (87.24 kg)...

this is a report of a penile fibrosarcoma in a two-year-old crossbred holstein bull. the ulcerated tumormass with dimensions of 7 × 9 × 6.5 cm, was enveloped the glans and body of the penis. it had a white-graycolor at cross section appearance. there was no metastatic evidence of regional lymph node enlargement.histopathologically, elongated spindle-shaped cells arranged densely in the interwov...

Thermal stress alters the normal body homeostasis and causes severe detrimental effects on production and productivity of animals. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are highly conserved family of proteins that are ubiquitously expressed in animal’s body during thermal stress. Out of all the members present in this family, HSP70 is regarded as the most significant indicator of thermal stress. The prese...

Rosettes formation technique (SRBC) was employed for the assessment of lymphocyte per cent. Development of accurate methods for enumeration of T and B lymphocytes in human and animal peripheral blood during the past decades has led to a plethora of papers on T and B lymphocytes in various pathologic states. Lymphocytes can be divided into T and B lymphocytes on the basis of selective binding ca...
