the present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of parenteral supplementation of cobalt, copper and iron in late pregnancy on ewe hematology parameters and lamb vigour. twenty ewes were allocated to one of two groups (n=10). in the test group, on day 120 ofpregnancy, cobalt, copper and iron were injected at a dose of 0.1 ml/kg bw (fercobsang, france, cobalt gluconate 5 mg/100 ml, copper ...

this study investigated the effects of short-term fasting and re-feeding on hematological and immunological parameters of mesopotamichthys sharpeyi (günther, 1874) fingerlings. after 2 weeks of adaptation, 360 fish with an average initial body weight of 6.13±0.40g were distributed in nine 300-l circular fiberglass tanks provided with aeration system following a completely randomized design. the...

in the present study, the age- and sex-specific changes of various haematological and blood serum biochemical blood parameters of beluga ( huso huso ) were investigated. blood samples were collected from 4-, 6-, 7-, and 8-year-old beluga (n = 7 for each sex and age). the specimens were fed at a rate of 0.5-3% body weight per day. ast and ldh levels in 7- and 8-year-old fish of both sexes were s...

hematological parameters are suitable biomarkers for evaluating the potential risk of the chemicals. the aim of this study was to investigate of acute crude oil exposure on basic physiological functions of persian sturgeon, acipenser persicus. 210 juvenile persian sturgeon (9.4 ± 1g) were supplied by the rajaei fish farm in mazandaran province, iran.  juveniles were exposed to the crude oil (15...

babesia ovis plays an important role in causing anemia and kidney dysfunction in affected animals. there are few extensive studies about hematological and biochemical findings of small ruminants' babesiosis caused by b. ovis. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of babesiosis on some hematological and biochemical parameters in infected small ruminants with b. ovis. a total of 280 sh...

Reproductive traits from 7642 ewes were recorded from 1975 to 1983. The ewes were of five breeds (Dorset (D), Finnsheep (F), Rambouillet (R), Suffolk (S) and Targhee (T)) and two composite lines [C1 (1=2F þ 1=4R þ 1=4D) and C2 (1=2F þ 1=4S þ 1=4T)]. Genetic parameters were estimated for six basic and seven composite traits. The basic traits were conception rate (CR), total number of lamb born (...

The aims of this study were to identify the morphometric measurements and body weights Thin-tailed ewe, examine qualitative characteristics ewe close relationship between weight other measurements. This used 40 female Ewe aged under 1 year. method was purposive sampling. Parameters observed face length, ear chest circumference, width, depth, shoulder height, hip front leg hind tail length weigh...

This paper reports genetic parameters for ewe performance traits in sheep breeders' flocks in New Zealand. Animal performance records from the AgResearch Lamb Survival Database and from Sheep Improvement Limited were used to generate data sets from 3 lambing years (2003 to 2005) in 24 flocks, and involving 31,651 ewes and many breeds and breed compositions (predominantly Romney, Coopworth, and ...
