In situ PCR was developed for the detection of proviral DNA of bovine leukaemia virus in paraffin embedded tissues, tissue smears of experimentally inoculated sheep, as well in peripheral blood leukocytes of naturally infected cattle. The liver, spleen, lung, heart, kidney, and lymph node were collected from two infected sheep, which died or were euthanized due to lymphosarcoma and persistent l...

In this study, we evaluated the monitoring of tick fever (TF) in a Brazilian dairy farm Minas Gerais state, Brazil, from July 10 to August 4, 2018. We aimed identify diagnostic and treatment flaws protocol adopted by farm, establish novel accurate TF based on precision farming rational use antimicrobials antiparasitic drugs, while evaluating economic benefits proposed strategy. monitored 395 he...

Acid phosphatase activity of various blood cells were histochemically observed on peripheral blood and bone marrow smears using the azo dye method which had been reported in my previous paper, and following results were obtained. 1) In the neutrophilic granulocyte series, the largest acid phosphatase score was obtained in immature cells, which might include promyelocytes, myelocytes, and metamy...

The problem of the histogenesis of blood platelets has been attacked from many points of view, but none of the theories advanced seems t'o be wholly satisfactory. Among the causes which have contributed to this confusion is the failure to recognize the unity in character of all blood platelets, and, until recently, the inability to reproduce the structural and tinctorial characteristics of bloo...

OBJECTIVE Chhattisgarh in India is a malaria-endemic state with seven southern districts that contributes approximately 50-60% of the reported malaria cases in the state every year. The problem is further complicated due to asymptomatic malaria cases which are largely responsible for persistent transmission. This study was undertaken in one of the forested villages of the Keshkal subdistrict in...

Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and visual assessments of anisocytosis assess variability in erythrocyte size. Veterinary studies on the correlation between two methods observer agreement are scarce. The objectives were to grading by means conventional microscopy canine smears RDW, intra- inter-observer variation assessing degree anisocytosis. study included 100 samples which smear exam...
