the effects of various routes of probiotic administration on performance, small intestine morphology and serum cholesterol of broiler chickens, were studied. we assigned 225 day old chicks (ross 308) to five experimental groups including control and four hatchery administration methods comprised of in ovo injection, oral gavage, spray application and cloacal inoculation. all of these were chall...

The morphology of the rat duodenum after chronic treatment with 15% (v/v) ethanol and 4% (v/v) pentanol was studied. Male Wistar rats of experimental groups were given ethanol and pentanol for 15 weeks with food and fluid freely available. Ethanol-15% and 4% pentanol-fed rats showed a significantly reduced fluid and food intake as compared with control rats. The study of the mucosa indicated th...

Introduction/Objective. Pancreatic cancer may be accompanied by infections caused various microorganisms. It is uncertain wheatear pancreatic infection precedes the development of or vice versa. The aim this study to analyze routes from duodenum through duct determine what types microorganisms can get into pancreas and nearby tissue. Methods. In patients subjected cephalic duodenopancreatectomy...

Female, especially for pregnant female, are vulnerable to psychological stress. The morphology and metabolism of the maternal intestine both obviously changed during pregnancy, thus making intestinal health status more fragile under aim present study was investigate role CRH CRHR1 in stress, exploring mechanism stress intestine. Bama miniature pigs were divided into control restraint groups fro...

background & aim:  non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids) are commonly used in clinical medicine. the adverse effects they produce in the gastrointestinal tract however, often limit their utility. oxidative stress has been shown to occur in the small intestine in response to the oral administration of indomethacin. in view of this, the effect of thyme essential oil, an agent with an...

The present experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of organic acids and phytase enzyme supplementation on performance and intestinal histomorphology of broilers. The experiment was done in a factorial arrangement 2 × 2 × 2 based on completely randomized design with eight treatments, five replicates with 12 chicks in each until 42 days of age. Diets included natural vinegar (0 and 2%),...

Primary duodenal adenocarcinoma (PDC) of the distal half of duodenum is extremely rare. We report a case of a young male with adenocarcinoma of third and fourth part of duodenum presenting with long standing proximal small bowel obstruction with associated weight loss and anemia. Esophago-gastro-duodeno-scopy showed a fungating intraluminal growth in third and fourth part of the duodenum. Compu...

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of supplementing different protease enzymes on growth performance, intestinal morphology, and selected carcass traits in broilers fed diets reduced 3.5% crude protein (CP) amino acids (AA). One thousand one-day-old Ross 308 (41 g) were assigned five dietary treatments with ten replicates 20 birds each: (PC) a positive control diet formulated meet acid req...

Background: Food intake of rats increases during pregnancy. This requires changes in the structure of the small intestine to absorb additional food. The aim of the present study was to investigate the morphological changes in the layers of small intestine in rats during pregnancy. Materials and Methods: Duodenum, jejunum and ileum of 18 pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats (day 7, 14 and 21 pregnancy) ...
