The calcium status of lactating, non-lactating, and male sheep on farm in southwestern Punjab, Pakistan was studied. Pasture and animal were sampled at the end of the first month of summer and winter. All samplings were carried out fortnightly. A mineral supplement was available to all animals throughout the year. Plasma calcium in all animals was not affected by the physiologic state and gende...

The present study was carried out to find the awareness of mother related breast feeding technique. Breastfeeding is ideal method suited for psychological and physiological needs children. Most mothers don't know correct technique feeding. This leads many unnoticed biased problems in babies lactating mothers. These include improper nutrition baby, altered growth, Oral thrush, low secretion milk...

1. Ribosomes prepared from bovine lactating mammary gland are able to synthesize protein, whereas similar preparations from non-lactating glands are not. Washing the ribosome suspensions through a medium containing 0.5m-ammonium chloride enhanced their ability to incorporate phenylalanine into polyphenylalanine. 2. Ribosomes isolated from non-lactating bovine mammary gland, in contrast with tho...

One critical determinant of fertility is the establishment and maintenance of pregnancy after insemination or embryo transfer. Pregnancy success is low in lactating dairy cows. Reduced fertility of the dairy female is only expressed in the lactational state but the magnitude of depression of fertility is not related to milk yield. Pregnancy failure occurs throughout gestation with the greatest ...

Prolactin (PRL), an anterior pituitary hormone with neurogenic properties associated with pregnancy, has been implicated in oligodendrocyte proliferation during gestation, contributing to increased myelination in the maternal brain. However, PRL is elevated during lactation as well, suggesting that the postpartum (PP) period may contribute to additional gliogenesis in lactating females. In the ...

Background: Addressing good breastfeeding practices in lactating mothers is important as it helps bringing about a positive change the behaviour, attitude, and practice with appropriate health education.

Haematological parameters during later gestation lactation periods female rats. kernel was collected extracted using Soxhlet, pure purchased from Malaysia. divided into two experiments; first included 15 pregnant females at days 17-19 a control group late pregnancy second administrat...

The metabolism of antibody-excess immune complexes was compared in lactating and normal female BALB/c mice. The initial rate of clearance of the antigen, dinitrophenyl- (DNP) ovalbumin, when complexed with mouse anti-DNP antibody was considerably faster in lactating mice. The half-life was 4 min in lactating mice compared with 8 min in normal female mice. Tissue distribution studies revealed th...
