1:)8ssage of AMDUCA and its implementation by the r FDA-Center for Veterinary Medicine has allowed food animal veterinarians to use drugs legally in an exttalabel manner as long as an appropriately extended withdrawal time (WDT) is followed. Providing these extended WDT for specific drug classes has been the main focus for the FARAD Digest series in the ]AVMA.1 But, what is the basis of these e...

conclusions overall, the results of this study indicate that intermittent exercise reduces the plasma leptin level. in addition, this reduction is significantly correlated to the glucose level in the blood. the continuous exercise was shown to have no effects on the plasma leptin level, and there was no relationship between the glucose and leptin levels. results the results demonstrated that se...

organophosphate (op) poisoning is one of the most common causes of poisoning in developing countries especially in southeastern asia. poisoning with phosphorus-containing organic chemicals or op compounds can be managed with antidotes like oximes which are potential reactivators of acetylcholinesterase (ache). the efficacy of oxime therapy in op poisoned patients mainly depends upon various fac...

The compensatory growth, proximate composition and amino acid contents changes of young yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco R.) (1.63-1.69 g) had been investigated using a 45-day cyclic feed deprivation and re-feeding experiment. The control group (S0) was fed daily with live tubificid worms (Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri), while the S1/4, S1/2, and S1/1 groups cyclically experienced one-day of ...

this experiment was conducted to determine the effects of either twice or thrice a day feeding regimens on performance and as well on plasma hormone and metabolite levels of broiler breeder hens during 24 to 38 wk of their productive age. breeder pullets were provided form a commercial flock, and distributed in experimental units, in a compeletly randomized design with three feeding regimens (t...

Enteral tubes are frequently used in critically ill patients for feeding and gastric decompression. Many of the nursing guidelines to facilitate the care of patients with enteral tubes have not been based on current research, but on ritual and opinion. Using a computerised literature search and an evidence-based classification system as described by the Joanna Briggs Institute for Evidence Base...

The aim of this study was to investigate effects of dietary levels of histidine (His) and iron (Fe) on cataract development in two strains of Atlantic salmon monitored through parr-smolt transformation. Three experimental diets were fed: (i) a control diet (CD) with 110 mg kg(-1) Fe and 11.7 g kg(-1) His; (ii) CD supplemented with crystalline His to a level of 18 g kg(-1) (HD); and (iii) HD wit...

Copepod nauplii are either ambush feeders that feed on motile prey or they produce a feeding current that entrains prey cells. It is unclear how ambush and feeding-current feeding nauplii perceive and capture prey. Attack jumps in ambush feeding nauplii should not be feasible at low Reynolds numbers due to the thick viscous boundary layer surrounding the attacking nauplius. We use high-speed vi...
