Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, KonyaBiyolog., Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, KonyaThis investigation was performed on 800 milch sheep belonged two state farm in Konya region. Sheep were examined by elinical procedures and tested with California Mastitis test (CMT). Milk samples taken from sheep with maStitis (CMT scores, ++/+++) w ere cultured in aerobic, microaerophlic and anaerobic conditions for bacteriological and mycological examination bacteria isolated and identified were tested against Ampicillin, Streptomycin, Tetracyclin, Penicillin, Kanamycin, Erytromycin, Gentamyem and Chloramphenicol discs (Difco ). In this area, in the mammary glands of 13.5 % of the -tested sheep, mastitis was detected. Although the rates of elinical mastitis was 0.75 percent, subclinical mastitis in sheep was 12.75 percent. Microbiologic isolation were succeded from (75.0 %) 81 samples of 108 mastitic milk. But, there was mix infection in 8 samples. The percent values of isolated microorganisms were found as below : 57.3 % Staph. aureus, 9.0 % for E. coli, 7.9 %for Bacillus ssp. 5.0% for B. cereus, 5.0% for C. pyogenes (Actinomyces pyogenes), 3.4 % for Str. agalactiae, 3.4 % for C. pyogenes (Actinomyces pyogenes), 3.4% for Sir. agalactiae, 3.4% for K. pneumoniae, 3.4 %for Candida albicans, 2.2 % for B. subtilis, 1.1 %for Str. dysgalactiae and 1.1 for Enterobacter ssp. In antibiotic susceptibility tests, Staph. aureus isolates were found to be sensitive to Tetracyclin, Chloramphenicol and Erytromycin, at the rates of 76.0 %, 58.0 % and 38.0 %, respectively. E. coli strains were sensitive to Streptomycin (100 %) and Tetracyclin (100 %), C. pyogenes strains were sensitive at the rates of 100 %, 80.0% and 80.0 %, for Penicillin, Streptomycin and Chloramphenicol, respectively. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=718 eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 6 1 7 12 719 article Studies at the level of light and electron microscopy the connection of perlslnusoldal cells with vitamin a, lipid metabolisms and fatty liver syndrome in hens Reşat Nuri AŞTI 1 Prof. Dr., S.Ü. Veteriner Fakültesi, Histoloji-Embriyoloji Bilim Dalı, KonyaThe purpose of this study was to investigate at the level of light and electron microcopy the connection of perisinusoidal cells with Vitamin A, lipid metabolism and fatty liver syndrome in hens. Forty adult Bobcock breed hens were used throughout the study. Examination of control animals' liver tissue revealed few perisinusoidal cells carrying one or two smail lipid droplets in their cytoplasms. In the animals subcutanely administrated with Vitamin A palmitat, it was determined that the number of perisinusoidal cells and of lipid droplets in the cytoplasm of these cells were increased lipid droplets in the epithelial cells had not changed. In the third group animals fed with high energy rations, histopathological features of fatty liver syndrome were observed.Epithelial cells of the liver tissue filled with big and smal lipid droplets.lt was determined that the number of perisinusoidal cells and of lipid droplets of these cells had not changed. On the other hand characteristic histopathological findings of fatty liver syndrome were sean in the hepatic cells of hens fed with high energy rations and given Vitamin A palmitat. In addition, together with the increase in the number of lipid droplets enumeration of perisinusoidal cells have multiplied. According to our findings. lt was concluded that perisinusoidal cells of liver are related with Vitamin A metabolism. However these cells did not participate in the formatian of fatty liver syndrome and lipid metabolism. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=719 eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 6 1 13 15 720 article Studies on the fertilization of mouse eggs in vitro Tevfik TEKELİ 1 Mehmet GÜLER 2 Melih AKSOY 3 The aim of this study was to test the recommended techniques of in vitro fertilization in Iriice as an experimental animaL Adult female mice of Swiss albino strain were superovulated by intrapeıitonal injection of PMSG and HCG 48 hours apart. They were killed 16 hours after injection of HCG and their eggs were recovered under warm oil in a plastic dish containing 0.4 ml of ineubatian medium. Sperms recovered from cauda epididymis of adult males of the same strairi were suspended in a medtum and incubated at 37° C under % 5 CO2 in air for 1.5-2 hours before they were used for insemination. The ineubatian medium was THY medium containing glucose, sodium pyruvate, bovine albumtn and antibiotics. At the time of insemination, a drop of sperm suspension (10-20 µl) was added to the medium contatning egg clot. Eggs and sperms were incubated in ineubatian medium for 6 hours. In the fırst group, fertilized eggs were left into the same medium. In the second group they were transferred to the development medium (Modifıed Whitten's) without sodium lactate and incubated until they were examtned under stereo-microscope. As a conclusion, in this study fertilized eggs and 2-cell stage embıyos were obtained but further stage of embıyos (morulae, blastocyst) couldn't be reached. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=720 eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 6 1 16 22 721 article Histopathological studies upon effects of zeranol on the reproductive system in male merino lambs M.

Veteriner Fakültesi Patoloji Anabilim Dalı, KonyaZeranal has been used as anabolic agent in cattle and sheep, especially in recent years. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of zeranal on the development and histopathological changes of reproductive organs of male merino lambs implanted with zeranaL In this trial, tourty-five m ale merino lambs at 126 ± 8 days of age were used. These lambs were divided into three groups. Each group consisted of 15 animals. Group I and group II were implanted with 12 mg zeranal subcutaneously the base of ear of lambs at the baginning of trials. After that, the same dose of zeranal was reimplanted to group II 40 days after first implantation. The remaining 15 lambs were used as a control group. Five lambs from each groups were slaughtered at 80, 120 and 160 days atter the trial. The implantation of zeranal to the lambs induced histopathological changes in the genital tract, which included; reduced seminiferous tubular diameter, delayed spermatogenesis in the testes; increased interductal connective tissue, adenomyosis, hyperplasia and intraepithelial lumina in the epididymides; squamous metaplasia, cystic dilatation of same acini, keratinisation, hyperplasia and increase in connective tissue in the prestat and bulbourethral gland; reduced alveolar development and an increase in connective tissue, alveoler cystic dilatation in vesicular gland. lt may be concluded that zeranal induced changes in the testes was reversible, whereas changes in epididymides, prostat, bulbourethral and vesiculer gland were irreversible. For this reason, zeranal implanted lambs should not be used for breeding purpose. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=721 eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 6 1 23 28 722 article Histopathological changes in the testes, epididimis and accessory sex glands of pubertal brown swiss male bulls zeranol implanted M.

Twenty three Brown Swiss bulls, 6-9 months old, were used in this study. These bulls were divided into three groups; Control, Group I and Group II. 36 mg zeranal was implanted subcutaneously .at the base of ear of bulls in Group I and Group II at the beginning of the experiment and the same dose was reimplanted to Group II 65 days after the first implantation. Implantation of zeranal to the bulls induced histopathological changes on the reproductive tract, which included; reduction in the diameter of seminiferous tubules and delayed sperınatogenezis in the testes, inercaseel interductal conncctive tissue and muscular layer of the d. epididimis in the epididimites, augmented interalveoler connective tissue and reducecl alveoler development in the prostate, vesicular glands and bulbouretlrral glands. It may be concluded that the implantation of zeranal would cause incufficiency at sexual breed function in bulls after 6 months of age. http://eurasianjvetsci.org/pdf.php3?id=722 eng Selçuk Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eurasian Journal of Veterinary Sciences 1309-6958 2146-1953 0000-00-00 6 1 29 31 723 article Importance diagnostique et prognostique des certains parametres sanguins et de liquide perltoneal chez les chevaux atteints de coliques Veysi ASLAN 1 Kürşat TURGUT 2 Abdullah BAŞOĞLU 3 Mahmut OK 4 Doç.
