the aim of the present study was to determination the prevalence of gastric ulcer in caspian miniature horse. the design field- laboratorial study on 23 caspian miniature horses. feed withdraw 12-16 hours before study and the owners or riders completed a form about housing, medication, age, sex, cell boold counts and the biochemical profile tests were carried out. endoscope performed through th...

ome of the highlights of the ongoing program within the Sensor Science Group of APL’s Milton S. Eisenhower Research and Technology Development Center to develop novel magnetometers are summarized. In particular, two approaches are described: a magnetostrictive device based on the deflection of a Terfenol-D coated single-crystal silicon cantilever and a Lorentz-force device based on a classical ...

This paper presents a method for determining the uniaxial tensile properties such as Young’s modulus, yield strength and the flow behaviour of a material in a virtually non-destructive manner. To achieve this, a new dumb-bell shaped miniature specimen has been designed. This helps in avoiding the removal of large size material samples from the in-service component for the evaluation of current ...

Blood samples were collected from 20 healthy miniature Caspian horses at 37 °C. Isolation of cryoglobulin was performed based on a standard method in present study. Harvested sera were kept at 4 °C for two hours and then examined for cryoglubolin. Four serum samples containing precipitate Suspicious of containing cryoglobulin were selected. Subsequently serum protein electrophoresis was perform...

Ultrasonography is a relatively easy, safe and non-invasive examination method which can be used in diagnosis of ocular disorders as complementary to routine ophthalmic examinations. As there has been no collated study undertaken on the normal measurements of ocular structures in Caspian miniature horse, obtaining these measurements could be a benchmark to diagnose some of the diseases and eye ...

BACKGROUND Scabies is a contagious skin disease rarely described in miniature pigs. To the best of the authors' knowledge, a zoonotic transfer from infected pet pigs to humans has not been reported previously. CASE PRESENTATION This case report describes the infestation with Sarcoptes scabiei mites in two miniature pigs presenting with unusual clinical signs, and disease transmission to a chi...
