Campylobacter coli is an important species involved in human cases of enteritis, and chickens are carriers of the pathogen mainly in developing country. The current study aimed to evaluate the transmission of C. coli and its pathogenic effects in chicken embryos. Breeder hens were inoculated intra-esophageally with C. coli isolated from chickens, and their eggs and embryos were analyzed for the...

Embryo and hatchling survival diminish as turkey breeder hens age. Recent data indicated that a chelated calcium proteinate (CCP) additive given to turkey breeder hens improved embryo survival as hens aged but did not affect shell thickness. We hypothesized that the mechanism by which this occurred may be by improved functional shell quality and its consequent effect on cardiac physiology. To t...

The one-humped camel (Camelus dromedarius) is a seasonal breeder with a relatively short breeding period, when increased ovarian activity is exhibited (Shalash, 1965,1980; Nawito, Shalash, Hoppe ¿St Rakha, 1967 ; Novoa, 1970). In Israel, the normal breeding season occurs from December to early April. Female camels come into heat during this period and exhibit mainly follicular activity; there i...

An assessment of the thermal control mechanisms applicable to solid breeder blanket designs under ITER-like operating conditions is presented in this paper. Four cases are considered: a helium gap; a sintered block Be region; a sintered block Be region with a metallic felt at the Be-clad interface; and a Be packed bed region. For these cases, typical operating conditions are explored to determi...

increase in feed intake of broiler breeder hens, results to incidence of metabolic and hormonal changes and finally leads to poor reproductive performance. an experiment was conducted to evaluate responses of feed-satiated and feed-restricted laying breeder hens to daily injection of an acute dose of progesterone (p4). a total of 64 cobb 500 hens were fed either restricted or ad libitum from 27...

This study aimed to prove that giving hCG injection at the time of artificial insemination and five days afterartificial in dairy cows with repeat breeder can cause pregnancy. employed 30 dairycows breeder. All samples were divided into two treatments, P1 using adose 100 IU given intramuscularly P2 a dose of100 after insemination. The results analyzed Chi-Square test. Analysis showed all treatm...

The control of Salmonella in the poultry production chain combined with biosecurity measures is an important tool to maintain and guarantee sanitary status Brazilian flocks. aim this work was compare official laboratory data on molecular typification isolates from breeding flocks different states between 2016 2018 identify category most positive flocks, light current legislation. Surveillance s...

An investigation was carried out to evaluate the growth performance of six commercial broiler hybridsavailable in Iran (Arbor Acres, Arian, Cobb 500, Hubbard, Lohmann and Ross 508). Two hundred and fiftyfertile eggs of each hybrid were taken from different breeder farms, all over the country. The similarity offlocks ages and their health conditions were considered. After hatching, the sexed chi...
