Avian Leukosis Virus Subgroup-J (ALV-J). Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) and MycopJasma synviae (MS) are important pathogens in chickens that cause severe economical losses in poultry industry throughout the world. Seven broiler grandparent flocks of Iran (six broiler strains) were sampled randomly at the ages of 8-63 wk (100 samples from each flock) for antibody detection to ALV-J, MG, and MS ...

Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) and synoviae (MS) are considered the most pathogenic economically devastating avian mycoplasmas. A definite MG MS diagnosis depends on three main approaches, including isolation identification, demonstration of specific antibodies, detection genetic materials. fast precise technique is an indispensable prerequisite to prevent control pathogens more effectively. Thi...

The effect of fermented wheat germ extract (FWGE, Immunovet-HBM) was studied in chickens challenged with Mycoplasma gallisepticum. Ninety M. gallisepticum- and M. synoviae-free 3-wk-old chickens were exposed to aerosol infection of M. gallisepticum. One group (30 birds) was treated with FWGE, a second group with tiamulin, and a third group was untreated. The fourth group was exposed to PBS aero...

The aim of the study was to investigate intramuscular pharmacokinetics enrofloxacin in black vultures (Coragyps atratus). a single dose (10 mg/kg) studied six vultures. Plasma concentrations and its active metabolite, ciprofloxacin, were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLCuv). Pharmacokinetic parameters estimated using non-compartmental compartmental analysis. After admin...
