Objective: Disruption of the intestinal epithelial barrier has been shown to occur following burn injury. This process can lead translocation pathogens from gut lumen systemic circulation and distant organs thereby increasing risk for sepsis. The aim this study was examine effect amifostine (WR-2721) on bacterial in a rat injury model. Material Method: A total 27 male Wistar albino rats were di...

A potential source of pathogenic bacteria in ground beef is the lymphatic system, specifically the lymph nodes. Bacteria have been isolated from the lymph nodes of cattle at slaughter; however, most studies have dealt with mesenteric lymph nodes, which are not normally incorporated into ground beef. The objective of the current study was to determine the prevalence and multidrug-resistance stat...

Background:Liver lesions in cattle not only have negative effects on the cattle breedingindustry, but also lead to loss of animal protein production, and in particularto endanger the consumers’ health. OBJECTIVES:This study was carried out to examine the macroscopic and histopathologiclesions of liver in slaughtered cattle of Zabol City. METHODS:Livers of 281 cattle slaughtered at the industria...

Dendritic cells (DCs) are continuously transported from the intestine to mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs). The objective of this study was to determine the migration kinetics of DCs via intestinal lymph and to investigate regulatory factors affecting their migration in vivo. DCs were obtained from spleen or thoracic duct lymph of mesenteric lymphadenectomized rats. The DCs were fluorescently label...

BACKGROUND Bovine tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium bovis is primarily a disease of ruminants, particularly cattle (Bos primigenius) and buffalo (Syncerus caffer), and is endemic in most developing countries. To date, studies done in Uganda have documented the prevalence of M. bovis in cattle, humans and wild life, in addition to non-tuberculous mycobacteria in pigs. Pigs are increasing...
