On d 0 of the experiment Bos indicus x Bos taurus (n=130) cows received an injection of GnRH and a progesterone-releasing device called an Eazi-BreedTM CIDR® for 7 d with a prostaglandin F2a injection at CIDR removal. Upon CIDR removal cows were divided into two AI treatments: 1) injection of estradiol cypionate (ECP) 24 h after CIDR removal with AI 8 to 10 h after a detected estrus and timed-A...

csn1s1is one of the major genes encoding milk proteins of mammals. in this study we determined allele frequencies of csn1s1-5` flanking region as well as exon 17 variants and their effects on milk traits in three indigenous cattle breeds mazandarani, golpaygani (bos indicus) and sarabi (bos taurus) and holstein cattle in iran. csn1s1*b variant was nearly fixed in holstein but ranged from 0.40 t...

objective: dietary changes playmajor risk roles in oxidative stress andcardiovascular disease and modulate normal metabolic function. the present study was designed to investigate the ameliorative potential of different extracts of hemidesmus indicus to experimental high-fat diet in wistar rats, and their possible mechanism of action.  materials and methods: male wistar rats were divided into 6...

Certain parasites can cause severe diseases in shrimp. Among these, protozoa are very important. The objective of our study was to describe the signs, prevalence, and intensity of hemocytosis, a new disease in shrimp, Fenneropenaeus indicus. The experimental design included three groups, one treatment as infected shrimp or group B and 2 controls with non-infected but exposure to White Spot Synd...

Copper deficiency is a commonly diagnosed problem in cattle around the globe. In Jimma, Ethiopia, 8 zebu (Bos indicus) and 8 zebu ×: Holstein Friesian cross (Bos taurus ×: Bos indicus) heifers were used in an 11-wk study to investigate breed type differences and effects of Cu deficiency on concentrations of trace elements in plasma and edible tissues as well as mRNA expression of Cu-related gen...

Seven major commercially important marine fisheries species, Fenneropenaeus indicus, Chaceon quinquedens, Lethrinus nebulosus, Scomberomorus commerson, Plectropomus pessuliferus, Pampus argenteus, and Epinephelus summana were seasonally sampled from Jeddah main local market, Saudi Arabia. The heavy metals, namely arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), le...
