The current paper summarizes the findings on endogenous morphine isolated by HPLC and characterized by mass spectroscopy in Schistosoma mansoni, Dracunculus medinensis and Ascaris suum. Morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G) has also been found by HPLC and confirmed by mass spectroscopy in Dracunculus medinensis and Ascaris suum. In addition, a morphine like substance has been isolated from Trichinella s...

Animals that are well-managed thrive and produce better than those kept under conditions which do not take full consideration of their behavioural welfare needs. This experiment was conducted with one hundred eighty unsexed day-old Marshall Arbor Acre breeds broiler chickens to investigate the effects housing systems on assessment, bone morphometry faecal egg counts. The birds were brooded for ...

background: the aim of this study was to determine intestinal and liver helminth infections in rattus rodents in tehran iran. methods: overall, 306 traps were put in 39 different regions in tehran from 2009 to 2010. rodents, including r. rattus and r. norvegicus were caught by live-traps.they become unconscious and the spinal cords were cut, afterwards the body was dissected and the stomach, sm...

an epidemiological  study  was carried out to determine the prevalence rate  and  significant cost benefit of various helminthes ( gastro-intestinal)  disease in cattle and buffalo population in two industrial husbandries in  north and south provinces of iran before and after treatment with oxyclozanide.  results show out of 450 fecal samples examined. 205 (37.96%) were found infected with oeso...

A 3-week study was carried out to determine the prevalence of gastro-intestinal helminths in slaughtered pigs at Bodija Abattoir, Ibadan. Five faecal samples per day were collected for 21 days (105 samples) from rectum pigs, stored sterile container, labeled appropriately and then transported a flask with ice pack parasitology laboratory department veterinary microbiology, University Ibadan, wh...

Microorganisms and helminthes can cause serious diseases in humans as well animals. The use of antimicrobial antihelminthic drugs have created selective pressure caused resistance to antibiotics used against them, thus it necessitates the honey bee’s derived natural products. One such bee product is pollen, collected by worker bees from flowering plants modify adding its salivary secretions. pr...

helminths infections are chronic illness in human being and cattle. the use of alternate drugs has been a remedial measure against the resistant strains of helminth parasites, as well as means of reducing the cost of controlling diseases caused by helminthes. pseudocedrelakotschyi is a medicinally valuable plant and possesses various pharmacological properties. p. kotschyi has been traditionall...

Recently, it has been suggested that low-grade inflammation may underlie chronic complex diseases, such as diabetes, dyslipidemia, atheroslerosis, and metabolic syndrome.1,2 High-sensitivity C-reactive protein has been adopted as a biomarker.3–5 However, the site of low-grade inflammation has been of debate; whether it is the adipose tissue6 or other tissues such as the periodontal tissue.7 Evo...

in this study parasitic infection of bobwhite and japanese quails were clarified in farms of garmsar city in province of semnan. forty quails from two breeds randomly were selected and they examined to identify all internal and external parasites .finding was shown that five percent of the quails examined harbored one or more species of helminthes. two cestodes, raillietina echinobothrida and r...

Electron microscopy has proved to be a very helpful those at posterior end consisting of powerful adhesive instrument in the study of biology in general. Since it has disks usually provided with chitinoid hooks or anchors; been invented a lot of information has accumulated in with single host, parasites of cold-blooded aquatic different aspects of biology. Studying the ultrastructure vertebrate...
