As the research material. 778 Avian female and 116 Peterson male broiler breeders, and totally 459 chicks obtained from that broiler breeders were used. Parent male and female chickens were separately divided into three base body weight groups called low, middle and high at 22 weeks old age . Separately three body weight subgroups which have almost similar variance and average values were obtained from base body weight groups by using sensitive sampling method. Six male and 64 female broiler breeder parent chickens obtained from bodyweight subgroups were housed in 9 pens during production period, feed conversion, body weight and performance indices of progeny groups were determined. Performance indices for 49 days old progenies of Hh (Light male x light female), Ha. Ho, Ah. Aa (Heavy male x heavy female), Ao. Oh. Oa and Oo (Middle male x middle female) parent groups were estimated as 193.71, 181.54, 226.83, 211.40, 204.44, 188.23, 203.40, 201.14 and 202.40, respectively. As a result , it can be said that Body weight of Broiler breeders can influence Body weight of their own progenies. When average progeny (commercial broilers) bodyweights and performance index values were taken into consideration, it may be possible to say ıha! if light males and females with middle bodyweights at sexual maturity age are used in broiler breeder pareni matings, optimum performance in progenies of Broiler breeders will be able to be obtained. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=291 Broilerbreeder parentssexual maturity agebody weightfeed conversionateperformance index eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 17 3 13 16 292 article İbrahim Pirinçci 1 Ahmet Ateşşahin1 Bülent Elitok2 1 Fırat Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Farmakoloji ve Toksikoloji Anabilim Dalı, ELAZIĞAfyon Kocatepe Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı, AFYONThis study was carried out to investigate the changes in the levels of serum aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), g-glutamyl transpeptidase (g-GT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosfokinase (CPK), total bilirubin (TB), direct bilirubin (DB), total protein (TP), triglyceride, albumin and glucose in sheep experimentally poisoned with selenium.

According to the chemical analysis results significant differences were found in protein, (at. ash and salt contets during all of Ihe period in the pastramies produced from turkey, chicken and cattle meat and also there were significant differences in pH values and moisture content in all periods except alter coating with çemen. The result of microbiological examinations showed that there were significantly differences on total mesophil aerob and Staphylococcus-Micrococcus number in all periods, a significantly difference was determined in the mold and yeast number in all periods excepl after salting and all the periods after coating with çemen a significant difference on Lactobacillus number was seen and also a difference was seen on Enterobactericeae number before salting. No growth was seen on coliform group and Salmonella species in pastrami samples. As a result, it was concluded pastrami should be produced from turkey and chicken meat having similar properties with cattle meat pastrami. While the pastrami produced from turkey and chicken meat was acceptable microbiologically, problems were determined on moisture and salt contetnt according to chemical analysis findings.

Frassino and Arifiye) at varying maturities on chemical composition, silage quality and digestible dry matter (DM) yields ol corn silages. Corn varieties were harvested at early-milk, milk, and dough stages and were ensiled in mini-silos (1L in volume) in triplicate tor each variety and maturity. Packing was accomplished by hand-power. After 60 d of incubation, silages were opened and analyzed for DM. organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (NDF). acid detergent liber (ADF), pH, lactic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid concentrations, and in vitro DM digestibility (IVDMD). In general, the concentrations of DM and OM increased, but NDF, ADF concentration decreased with increasing maturity in silages (P<0.05). The changes in concentration of CP were variable among corn varieties. Even though silage pH increased with increasing maturity, all silage pH were around recommended optimal pH value ol 3.5-4.5. Silage organic acid contents were generally in a desirable range (low in acetic and butyric acid and high in lactic acid content) and correlated with pH values. While IVDMD of 33-94 (77.16% and 76.80) and Frassino (79.18 and 78.48) were the highesl (P<0.05) at early-milk and milk stages, respectively, IVDMD of silages were similar at dough stage (P>0.05). 33-94 variely had the highest digestible DM yields ai early milk and milk stages (1142.4 and 1363,7 kg/da, respectively), but Arifiye variety had the highest digestible DM yield (1232.9 kg/da) at dough stage. In conclusion, while milk stage seemed to be the best harvesting stage for Rx-947, 33-94 and Frassino varieties, dough stage seemed to be the best harvesting stage for Arifiye variety based on digestible DM yields. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=297 Com silagematuritysilage qualityin vitro digestibilitydigestible dry matter yield eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 17 3 51 58 298 article Sibel Yavru 1 Atilla Şimşek 1 Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, Viroloji Anabilim Dalı, KONYAIn this study, 100 feces samples from 0-1 old year calves with clinical sign of respiratory and digestive systems, fever and acut diarrhae symptom in eight private managements of Konya and its arround were used for virus isolation studies in sensitive cell cultures and checked for BAV 1,2 and 3.

Eight heifers and 12 cows were inserted a PRID for 10 days. A single injection of 500 mcg Cloprostenol. PGF2 alpha analogue, on the day removal of PRID. All animals inseminated three times at 48, 72 and 96 h following removal of PRID. Pregnancy rate in animals with anoestrus and suboestrus were 81.8 % and 62.5 % respectively, while onset of the oestrus occurence in animals with anoestrus and suboestrus were 91.7 % and 100 % respectively. The onset of the oestrus and pregnancy rates in all animals that PRID application were 95.0 % and 73 6 % respectively. The findings indicate that the use of PRID is effective for treatment of animals with anoestrus and suboestrus. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=311 Dairy cattleanoestrussuboestrusPRID eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 17 3 135 142 312 article Ramazan Durgut 1 Uçkun Sait Uçan 2 Emine Özlem Ateşoğlu 3 Mustafa Kemal Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, İç Hastalıklar Anabilim Dalı, HATAYSelçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, Mikrobiyoloji Anabilim Dalı, KONYATarım ve Köyişleri Bakanlığı Veteriner Kontrol ve Araştırma Enstitüsü, KONYAIn this study, a dog brought with a complaint ol turning around was evaluated. Clinical examinations revealed a marked weakness in the femoral pulsation, eodema developed in the tarsal and carpal regions and wounds in the skin. It was observed that the haematocrit values increased by 66%. In thick blood smears, in ava rag e 7-8 Di-roflaria larvae were seen in each viewable area when viewed with the 100X objective. In the analysis ol the blood: the levels of urea, albumin, glucose, creatinin, ALT. ALP and LDH were found to be in the normal range. In the necropsy, marked dilatations in the right chamber of the heart were observed and 20 mature Dirofilaria immitis (ranging 18-20 cm) were seen. Brain looked hyperemic and bulgy and menings appeared cloudy. Hislopathological examinations showed that oedema, fibrin and thickining in the menings and numerous erythrocytes in the blood vessels of the menings. In these regions, there were condense mononuclear cell and neutrofil leucocyte infiltrations. The brain tissue under the menings involved with the infection (substantia grisa region only), severe necrose, condense mononuclear cell, neutrofil leucocyte infiltrations and also dense gitter cell proliferation were detected. In the brain tissue. Staphylococcus aureus was identified by bacteriological examinations. In conclusion, by carrying out clinical, biochemical, heamatological, microbiological and histological examinations, the case was diagnosed as drofilariasis complicated with purulent meningoencephalitis. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=312 Dogdirofilariasismeningoencephalitis eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 17 3 143 147 313 article Ali Rişvanlı 1 Cahit Kalkan 1 Fırat Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, Doğum ve Jinekoloji Anabilim Dalı, ELAZlĞThe aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between mammary papillomatosis and mastitis in cows. A total of 1249 cows (396 Brown-Swiss, 338 Holstein, 31 Simental. 355 hybrid. 6 Jersey and 123 local strain) aged between 2-16 were used as subjects. The presence of mastitis was determined by clinical examination, CMT and microbiological examinations. Then, this data were compared with mammary papillomatosis rates. In conclusion, il was determined that the incidence of mammary papillomatosis was 13.37%. In 45.99 percent of these cows, papillomatosis were accompanied with mastitis. However, the rate of mastitis was higher in Simmental breed cows with papillomatosis than other breeds. The incidence of mammary papillomatosis was low in Jersey breed cows. Additional, mammary papillomatosis was found to be lowest in cows of 2-4 aged group. There was no difference between cows regarding to the rale of mastitis when their ages were considered. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=313 Mastitispapillomatosiscow eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 17 3 149 157 314 article Murat Boydak 1 Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, Histoloji ve Embriyoloji Anabilim Dalı, KONYAThe aim of study was lo determine histological structure of both nictitating membrane, itself and, its glands, to evaluate possible contribution lo the local immunity of the eye itself and the basic histological knowledge to be used as reference out on local interventions. For Ihese purposes a comparative histochemical and light microscopic evaluation of PT was carried out on the both sexes in Brown Swiss and Holstein cows. The periodic acid-Schiff (PAS).alcian blue pH=2.5 (AB) and PAS/AB at pH=2.5 combined staining was used to histochemical properties in Ihe glands of the PT.lt was observed thai Ihe PT of cows investigated had an "T" shaped hyaline cartilage, so-called cartilago palpebra tertia (KPT) which was covered with the continuation of conjunctival epithelial tissue in the medial canthus in cows.The epithelia of the both palpebral and bulbar faces, and free marginal aspect of the PT were stratified squamous epithelium as in conjunctiva.GII. palpebra tertia superficialis (GPTS) was observed as lobes surrounded by connective tissue capsule located around the KPT.AIthough the gll. palpebra tertia profundus (GPTP) were observed in the cow, it was lack of the histological and histochemical properties of the Harderian gland. The cows investigated wide lymphocytic infiltration areas were observed m the connective tissue. Especially, cows the areas formed lymphoid follicles in the fornix conjunctiva and lamina propria of the palpebral and bulbar aspects ol the PT.Branched tubuloalveolar construction of GPTS with mix secretion was found in cows. Varying degrees of pigmentation was observed over the free margin, palpebra I and bulbar aspects ol the PT in cows Elastic.reticular and collagen fibers were observed under Ihe epithelium and deeper parts of the lamina propria,Plasma cells were lound in groups in the connective (issue of the free margin,palpebral and bulbar aspects.and intralobular and interlobular interstitium of the GPTS and GPTP, Myoepithelial cells were found to be located in the corpus glandulae and walls ol the ducts systems of both GPTS and GPTP. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=314 Palpebra tertiacowharderian glandhistologichistochemical
