Skin flaps, approximately 11 cm in diameter and 15 cm in length were removed over the umbilical area Consequently, hernial defect corresponding to the removed skin flap size, were created through the removal of abdominal musculuture and periton. Epidermal and dermal layers of skin flaps facing to the abdominal wall were placed in 3 sheep of each groups. Sheep were euthanized in 15, 30, 45 and 60 days, in groups 1. 2. 3 and 4, respectively. Following this, tissue samples were collected from different spots of autogen skin flaps and submitted for histologic evaluations.

A total of 22 adult New Zealand Rabbus consisting of 15 males and 7 females were used in this study. Fifteen rabbits consisting of 10 mates and 5 females were given latex for making dissection and 3 males and 2 females rabbits were used lor the corrosion casts and also 2 males rabbits for the histological sections ol Ihe hepatic artery. Liver, hepatic artery, portal vein and biliary ducts were investigated macro-anatomically and subgrossly and the following results were found. In the rabbit, the liver was consist of six lobes and Ihe gall bladder was located between the quadrate lobe and the right hepatic lobe. Common bile duct which was opened at the beginning of the duodenum, was formed by joining of the hepatic ducts which are coming Irom ihe liver lobes. In the duodenum the common bile duct made mucosal bubble which called" papilla duodeni major". The celiac artery gave off the splenic artery which was the first branch of this artery, then it gave off the left gastric artery and the vessel continued as the hepatic artery. The hepatic artery gave off Ihe gastroduodenal artery and the right gastric artery respectively and arrived lo the liver inside the lesser omentum then the hepatic artery dispersed to the liver lobes. In the rabbit, portal vein was formed by the left ramus and right ramus of the liver and the first branch of the portal vein was the gastroduodenal vein. The left gastric vein and splenic vein were leaved, the portal vein as a common trunk cranial mesenteric vein, which was the largest branch of the portal vein, divided to Ihe two branches which were called the common jejunal vein and the ileocolical trunk.

Feacal samples from dogs and cats were cultured in Cooked-Meat Broth. The cultures grown were inactivated in terms of vegetative bacteria in water bath for 20 min. at 80"C. Then, the cultures were subcultured on selective Colombia Blood agar plates containing gentamisin (5 mg/L). Agar plates were incubated aerobically and anaerobically for 48 h. at 37°C. Identification was based on colony morphology, flouresence under an ultraviolet lamb, Gram staining, subterminal spor formation, and some biochemical properties. Clostridium difficile strains were isolated from faecal samples of adults dogs and puppies as household pets: 17 positive (% 25.95) of 62 samples and 9 positive (% 28.1) of 32 samples, at ratio respectively. In uncontrolled dogs (both adults or puppies), 7 positive (% 14.28) of 49 samples and 6 positive (% 19.2) of 37 samples were determined, In cats, 4 positive (% 25) of 16 samples were detected.

In the study, 10-12 months aged and 12 Angora goals weighing 15-22 kg were used. Group 1(Conlrol) and group 2(Experimental) were fed with a standart ration containing 35 ppm Zn and the same ration supplemented with 250 ppm Zn respectively as ad libitum for 6 months. In the study, while the plasma zinc levels of control and experimental groups were 0.54-0.64 and 0.73-1.13 µg/ml, the plasma zinc levels of experimental group were signiliciantly(p<0.05) higher, except first sampling time, than in the control group. Although the erythrocyte count, haemoglobine amount and haematocrit levels in the group supplemented with zinc were generally found to be higher than those in control group, the difference at 3^rd month was important alone(p<0.05). It was observed that the erythrocyte count, haemoglobin amount and haematocrit levels in control group tended to decrease as compared with the first month values of the same group. The total protein levels in experimental group were found to bo generally higher, unless important, than those in control group. Although the albumin levels in experimental group were obviously higher as compared with that of control group, the difference of 5. month lonely was statistically important (p<0.05). In Ihe study there was no difference between groups in respect of total leucocyte count and lymphocyte percentage in any time, but it was striking that these parameters were higher in the group supplemented with zinc when compared with control group in all sampling times. In addition to, both T and B lymphocyte percentages also were close each other in either groups during all the study. Consequently, these data obtained in Angora goats which of the ration supplemented with zinc, may have been considered to be beneficial in point of exhibiting the effects of zinc on at least these parameters. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=418 Zinchaematological parameters.

For this purpose totally 12 dogs were used as a material. The dogs were divided into 2 groups each of 6 dogs. Haemorrhagic shock was performed experimentally by taking arterial blood via cut down catheters. By this way the mean arterial pressure was reduced to 40 ± 5 mmHg. At the end of the hypotensive period, the dogs of the group 1 and 2 were treated by bolus injection of 5ml/ kg of blood and 7.5 % NaCI/ 6 % dextran respectively. The blood samples for the determination of blood gases analyses were taken before the experiment, at the end of hypotensive period and after treatment at 30th, 60th and 90th minutes and other parameters (heart rate, blood pressure, respiration rate and body temperature) were recorded. In the study, Group 1 (treated by bolus injection of blood), after the bolus injection, blood pressure at 30th, 60th and 90th mins. were increased compare to the hipotensive period, but, this increased was only important at the 90th min.

The decreased levels of hematocrit values were significant compared to the hipotensive period in group 2 (p<0.05).

Serum aspartate aminotransferase and creatine kinase activities were significantly higher (p<0.001) in the lambs with white muscle disease compare to the healthy lambs.
