The buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is an important contributor to milk, meat, power, fuel and leather production in many developing countries. Buffaloes can be categorized into Asian and Mediterranean buffaloes. Asian buffalo includes two subspecies known as Riverine and Swamp types. Riverine (water buffalo) and Swamp buffaloes possess different genetics (50 vs. 48 chromosomes, respectively), morpho...

b a ckground: there is a little or no data available on the natural babesia bovis ( b . bovis ) infection in water buffaloes( buba l u s bubalis ) comparing to the available one for cattle. this study was conducted to investigate the natural b. bovis infection in water buffaloes in comparison to crossbred cattle under field conditions in egypt. m e t hods: a total of 35 buffaloes and cattle wer...

linguatula serrata is a cosmopolitan parasite which has been reported in iran. the aim of the present cross-sectional study was to determine the prevalence of linguatulosis in ruminants and its association with the age and sex of infected animals. for this purpose, mesenteric lymphatic nodes (mlns) and liver of 2721 slaughtered animals including 623 cattle, 784 buffaloes, 787 sheep and 527 goat...

Lipids in liver wet and dry matter, liver moist and dry matter and their relationships were investigated based on species, sex and age in cows, buffaloes, sheep and goats. Mean percentage of lipids in liver wet and dry matter and liver dry matter in cows were 3.60%, 1.10%, 29.70%, and for buffaloes were 5.30%, 1.55%, 29.20%, sheep 3.00%, 0.83%, 27.90%, and goats 2.910%, 1.55% and 28.40%, respec...

AIM The aim of this study was to assess the effect of microclimate alteration on temperature-humidity index (THI), milk yield, and milk composition of Murrah buffaloes during summer for a period of 90-day from March to May-2014 at Buffalo Research Station, Venkataramannagudem, Andhra Pradesh, India. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 40 lactating Murrah buffaloes were selected having similar bo...

This study compared the composition, yield, and freezing point of buffalo colostrum milk collected on 30th, 60th, 90th day lactation from purebred Murrah its crosses with Philippine Carabao. A total 133 samples were 36 buffaloes (20 16 “Murrah x Carabao” crosses) evaluated for fat, protein, lactose content, solids non-fat (SNF), solids, point. Colostrum contained significantly (p<0.05) more ...

The temperature–humidity index (THI) has been commonly used to analyse heat stress in dairy cattle, but little is known about its effects on buffaloes. In this study, daily milk yield (MY), fat percentage (FP), protein (PP) and somatic cell count (SCC) data from 808 buffalo cows plus environmental temperature relative humidity were investigate the consequence of stress. Two mixed models evaluat...

The present research was carried out to study the bio-ecological aspects and density of Haematobia exigua flies in cattle buffaloes. total length life cycle from laying eggs emergence adult recorded as 10 days, 15 days 12 respectively during monsoon, winter summer season. Cattle Konkan region having highest fly followed by North Maharashtra, lower Vidarbha, Western Maharashtra lowest Marathwada...

INTRODUCTION The complex electronic systems being designed today often require mixed technologies to incorporate the most efficient balance of performance, speed, power, and cost. In order for one technology to communicate with the other, an interface is needed. One of the most common mix of technologies seen today is high speed ECL with the slower, but very popular TTL and CMOS. To make this i...
