Heat shock proteins (HSPs) associated with stress reactions play an important role in cell survival by activating numerous regulatory and inducing black apoptosis. This study aimed to identify the potential SNPs of HSP70 gene Kacang goats Indonesia. Forty-three were selected from Sidoarjo Tulungagung districts. The DNA isolated blood samples was successfully amplified using polymerase chain rea...

background : small ruminants’ babesiosis caused by babesia ovis, is transmitted during blood feeding by infected ticks and is the most economically important tick-borne disease in tropical and subtropical areas. this study was carried out to to estimate the infection rate of b. ovis in sheep and goats by pcr. we have analysed risk factors that might influence infection of sheep and goats with b...

this study was conducted to investigate the hair production and fleece characteristics of hairy goats according to the sex and age of animals. the material of the study consisted one total data of 73 hair goats, which were between more than one year-old and one year-old lori goats from both sexes (26 males and 47 females). the overall fleece weight, fiber length, lock length, washing yield, hai...

By complement fixation test 230 blood samples from goats and he goats were examined for presence of antibodies against Brucella ovis. 134 blood samples were from goats (23 of them were from slipping goats) and 96from he goats. The animals come from private farms in the Plovdiv and Pazardzhik regions (Southern Bulgaria). 10.87% of all tested blood samples contain antibodies against Brucella ovis...

Amblyomma hebraeum was present on goats at 25 and on cattle at 39 dip-tanks, and a total ...

this study was conducted to determine the electrophoretic pattern of serum protein in goats infected withbabesia ovis. serum total protein was calculated and serum electrophoresis from 15 goats naturally infectedwith b. ovis as well as same number of healthy goats was performed. microscopic examination of giemsastained peripheral blood smears revealed b. ovis infection. the parasitological diag...
