Mehmet Kocabatmaz, Mursayettin Eksen, Zafer Durgun — 1992-01-01

In this investigation, three Angora Goats of 3 years old and with the permanent rumen cannula were used. The goats were fed with alfalfa hay (40%) and the pelleted white beet pulp (60%). The first animal was used as a control and 1 g and 2.4 g phosphorus were infused via rumen cannula into rumen of the second and third animals respectively. Rumen content and blood samples were taken before feeding and at the 3rd and 6th hour after feeding with 7 days intervals. The pH values of rumen contents were highest before feeding and generally lowest at 6th hour after feeding for all animals. At the each sampling time, the average values of protozoa counts and percentage of Isotricha intestinaiis, Isotricha prostoma and Dasytricha ruminantium for second and third animals to which phosphorus (Ig and 2.4 g respectively) infused were highest than first animal but the percentage of Entodinium minimum and Entodinium caudatum showed decrements for second and third animals. On the other hand, the highest NH3 - N values of rumen contents were determined for the second animal at each sampwling time but same values were lowest for first animal. Before feeding, urea-N of blood was highest and showed gradually decrements after feeding for first animal. The same values were found to be lowest before feeding, and showed increments for second animal at other sampling times. All of the total protein values generally were equal for ail animals. The glucose values of blood sera beiongig to the third animal were found higher than the other animals only the lower values of glucose at the before feeding showed gradually incaremets after feeding for all animals. In addition before of the effect of phosphate infusion, inorganic phosphorus values of rumen contents and blood sera of the second and third animals were higher than the first animal at each sampling time.

Suzan Yalçın, O. Cenap Tekinşen — 1992-01-01

This study was carried out to investigate the nutritional values of culture-mushrooms and to obtain some basic information to increase their consumption. Agaricus bisporus, Agaricus campestris and Agaricus bitorquis were analyzed for chemical composition. Based on the chemical analysis, the average values of dry matter, crude protein, fat and available carbohydrate were 6.31-8.87 %, 2.54-3.70 %, 0. 18-0.39 % and 0.38-1.87 %, respectively. Energy values of culture-mushrooms according to Atwa-ter system were found to be 9.59-17.85 kcal/100 g. The average values of calcium, phosphorus, copper and zinc were 1.64-1.86, 113.78-156.38, 0.52-1.01 and 0.54-1.56 mg/100 g, respectively. As a result, culture-mushrooms are poor in the values of fat, available carbohydrate and available energy but rich in protein and mineral content. Therefore it is concluded that culture-mushrooms are valuable foods.

Investigations on the efficacy of flumethrin against tick infestation of sheep and goats

Nazir Dumanlı, Hasan Yılmaz — 1992-01-01

The efficacy of flumethrin (Bayticol 1 % pour-on, Bayticol 05 % pour-on and Bayticol EC 6%) was tested against tick infestation of the sheep and goats under field conditions in Bekçitepe village of Elazığ. All of the sheep and goats were found to be infested with different species of ticks before treatment. The majority of ticks was Rhipicepalus bursa. In addition, R. sanguineus and Hyalomma excavatum were detected on these animals in small amount. Bayticol pour-on was used at the dose rates of approximately 0.5 mg/kg and 1 mg/kg on the sheep and goats along the backline of each animal. Bayticol EC 6% as 0.003 percent and 0.005 percent concentrations (20 and 30 ppm) was used by dipping the sheep and goats in a suitable tank. Both of the dip and pour-on treatment of flumethrin provided effective control and was found to have a protective period of four weeks on sheep and three weeks on goats.

Abdullah Başoğlu, Kürşat Turgut, Mahmut Ok, Ramazan Kadak — 1992-01-01

Electrocardiographic prameters in iotal 43 healthy Brown Swiss cow ranging in age from 4 to 8 years were measured, computed and analyzed. Electrocardiograms were recorded on a one-channel, portable electrocardiograph using bipolar limb, augmented unipolar limb and unipolar precordial leads. The electrocardiograph was calibrated at 20 mm per 1 mV and the paper speed was set at 25 mm per second. Electrocardiograms wera recorded twice in each cow within 15 days in the morning after feeding. The P, QRS, T waves and PQ, QT, ST intervals, as well as, the amplitud of the P, QRS, T waves were measured. The result of the study showed that the recording of bipolar limb, augmented unipolar limb and unipolar precordial leads varied from animal to animal, and in the same animal from time to time.

The effect of EDTA on the development of mouse eggs fertilized In vitro

Tevfik Tekeli — 1992-01-01

The present study was undertaken to whether EDTA exerts beneficial effect on the development of mouse embryos derived from eggs fertilized in vitro. Superovulated eggs were collected from ddY females and were inseminated with epididymal sperm obtained from ddY males. At 6 hours after insemination the fertilized eggs were transferred to the Whitten's medium with or without EDTA and then cultured for 24 to 120 hours. The development of embryos beyond the 2-cell stage at 48 hours was significantly enhanced by the presence of 10 mM EDTA. Fifty seven per cent of embryos cultured for 96 hours in the medium containing EDTA developed morulae stage. Only 13% of embryos cultured for 96 hours in the medium without EDTA developed into morulae stage. On the other hand, 27% of embryos cultured in the medium with EDTA developed into blastocyst stage. As a conclusion, the development of in vitro fertilized mouse embryos beyond the 2 cell stages in Whitten's medium was enhanced by the presence of EDTA.

H. Osman Korhan Ulusan — 1992-01-01

The aim of this study was to investigate and compare of the seasonal changes of the fertility performances in Brown cattle raised under the conditions of Elazığ and Susurluk Sugar Factory farms. The investigation material consisted of fertility records of 406 Elazığ and 310 Susurluk from a total 716 on the farms within the period from 1979 through 1984. The results of the fertility traits were obtained in Brown cattle on Elazığ and Susurluk Sugar Factories farms respectively. The ages at first insemination were 24±0.64 and 23± 0.55 months, the ages of first calving were 34±0.62 and 32 ±0.55 months, the number of inseminations per conception were 1.36 ± 0.00 and 1.63 ± 0.03, the conception rates were 58 and 63%, the percentage of abortion were 1.50 and 4.16%, the calving intervals were 397 ± 5.61 and 398 ± 4.47 days, the first gestation fengths were 283 ± 1.30 and 278 ±1.44 days, the average gestation lengths were 283 ± 0.92 and 281 ± 0.90 days, the first service periods 111 ± 9.60 and 105 ± 8.60 days, the average service periods were 105 ± 4.70 and 110 ± 5.50 days, the intervals from first parturition to first insemination were 69 ± 1.10 and 77 ± 1.95 days, the male calf birth rates were 46.45 and 44.00% The effects of seasons on the fertility traits were usually non significant. But the same effects on first service period for Elazığ and interval from first parturition to first insemination for Susurluk farms were significant P < 0.05 level. The longest first service period was in the summer, and the longest interval from first parturition to first insemination was in the fall.

Hasan Erden — 1992-01-01

In this study, the comparative macroanatomical and subgross studies on the lumbosacral plexus of the Akkaraman sheep and Angora goat were investigated. For this purpose, eight Akkaraman sheep and eight Angora goats, in different sex, were used. It was observed that there wasn't a significant difference in the cources and distributions of the nerves arising from the lumbosacral plexus in Akkaraman sheep and Angora goat. On the contrary, there was significant differences in the origination of the nerves arising from the lumbosacral plexus between two species and individual member of the species.

An Investigation on the viability and growth characteristics of Walliser-Schwarzhals and Walliser-Schwarzhals x Hairy Goat breeds

Fuat Odabaşıoğlu, Tufan Altın — 1992-01-01

The main animal material of this investigation consisted of 7 Walliser, 17 Hairy goat and 31 Walliser-Schwarzhals x Hairy goat (F-₁ ) crossbreed. Using Walliser and other genotypes, 7 Walliser, 21 F₁ and 32 G₁ kids were obtained. In this study, viability and growth characteristics of these genotypes have been investigated. In the Walliser, F₁ and G₁ kids, the percentage of viability was 71, 42 %, 79,16 % and 90,62 % respectively. In the Walliser, F₁ and G₁ average birth weights were determined as 3.66 ±0.20 kg, 3.46 ±0.11 kg and 3.54 ±0.09 kg respectively. As far as the birth weight is concerned, the difference between genotypes was not statisticaly significant. In the Walliser, F₁ and G₁ body weights at 12 week were 11.48 ±1.07 kg, 13.02 ± 0.58 kg and 14.58 ± 0.45 kg respectively. The difference between values was found to be significant (P < 0.05) and this variation was due to the difference between Walliser and G₁ . There was a significant difference between birth types, namely, single kids had more birth weights than twins. An important difference was not found between the sexes. The average daily gain of the body weight in Waliser was 0.094 ± 0.012 kg, in F₁ 0.113 ± 0.007 kg and in G₁ 0.131 ± 0.005. Cross-breeds gave far better results than pure breeds with regard to daily average gain of the body weight and 12 week body weight. It was concluded that using Walliser goats as improvers for the hairy goats was more appropriate.

THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF ENROFLOXACIN ON PNEUMONIC AND DIARRHOEIC CALVES

Kürşat Turgut, Osman Erganiş, Abdullah Başoğlu — 1992-01-01

The therapeutic efficacy of Enrofloxacin (Bay-tril;Bayer) against respiratory disease and diarrhoea in 60 neonatal calves was investigated in fieldtrial. Nasal and tracheal flushing samples from calves with pneumonia and rectal samples from calves with diarrhoea were taken for microbiologica examination. Microbiologic isolation from tracheal flushing samples could not be succed in 10 out of 30 pneumonic calves. After sampling, treatment of calves with baytril, initial subcutaneus application (2.5 mg/kg b.w., 10% sol.) followed by oral treatment (2.5 mg/kg b.w. 10% sol.) for three successive days was performed. P. haemolytica (70%) and mycoplasma ssp (30%) in calves with pneumonia and E.coli (86.6%) in calves with diarrhoea were the most common isolated bacteria. Except for 3 calves with pneumonia and 6 calves with diarrhoea, all calves cured by the treatment. In conclusion, Baytril was found to be highly effective in the treatment of pneumonic and diarrhoeic calves.

Ahmet Acet, Ömer Demet, D. Ali Dinç, Bünyamin Traş, A. Levent Baş — 1992-01-01

This study was conducted to determine chloramphenicol level and its clearance time from milk cow with mastitis, which were medicated with chloramphenicol at therapeutic doses. In this experimental study, three groups that each has two Browns Swiss cows were used. Milk samples were collected and analysed in the last of 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., 6., 7., 8., 12., 24., 32., 46, hours after administration of drug. In Group I, after intramuscular enjection of 10 mg/kg chloramphenicol average drug levels were found as 24.072 mg/kg at first hour, 0.096 mg/kg at eight hour. These levels were 488.720 mg / kg at first 0.19 mg/ kg at twentyfourth hour in Group II after intra-mammar injection 2 g chloramphenicol and 784.05 mg/kg at first, 0.038 mg/kg at thirtysecond in Group III after administration of intramuscular 10 mg/kg intramammar 2 g chloramphenicol combination. No Drug residue was found in milk collected after 8 hour in Group I, 24 hour in Group II and 32 hour in Group III. The curve of chloramphenicol level was showed with a graphic against time period. As a result, chloramphenicol levels and discarding time were seen changing according to administration ways and doses.

The effect of granulated sugar application on healing In the treatment of infected wounds and abscesses

Nuri Yavru, Yılmaz Koç, Mustafa Ancan, Yusuf Doğruer — 1992-01-01

With this study it was tried to use the rather simple, cheap and uncomplicated treatment method of crystallise sugar application as an help of treatment in the field of veterinary medicine. In this study materials were consisted of total 28 cases; these were; 1 dog, 1 rabbits, 2 horses and 4 cattle which had been brought to the surgery clinics. 1 horse, 2 catle had bursitis purulenta, 2 calves had arthritis purulenta, 1 cat, 1 sheep, 4 horses, 3 cattle had infected and necrotic wounds, 6 dogs had experimentally made symetric wounds. Granulated sugar was applied in crystallise form as 40% solution and 59% paste form. One of the experimentally made wounds was treated in clasical medhod, and the next one is by grunulated sugar application. Any antibiotic was used expect in arthritis purulenta cases. The resistance of the wound was measured comparatively with an electronic prebe (Eastern-Animdletek-lnc. USA) in order tohave an idea about the improvement rate of the healing results of granulation tissue of experimentally made wounds in 3 dogs. From the other 3 dogs 1 gram of muscle piece was taken before and third and sixth day after the treatment in order to detect the bacteria level on both of the wounds, that colony counts were made. Putrid flow from abscesses in different dimensions has stopped varying in time of 3 to 5 days by application of 40 % granulated sugar solution. This time was obtained as 4 days in arthritis and 2-3 days in bursitis cases. Complete healing was in between 10-17 days. In the infected wounds it was detected that production of granulation tissue by ceasing of flow occured in 3 to 5 days depending on the size of the wound, it has neeted 7 to 13 days for granulation tissue to reach to the skin level. It was reported that the regression of the size of the wound half of its original size on the fifth day and a higher resistance of sugar applied wound was detected in the measurements of the granulation tissue improvement. Reduction of bacteria number was detected in sugar applied wounds comparing with the other one in colony countings bacteriologically. Findings at the end of this study was showed that because of good results, cheapness, easily applicabliness and most abundancy of sugar it may be an alternative to other classical treatment methods.

Behiç Coşkun, Suphi Deniz, Ali Ayar, Ramazan Kadak, Fazıl Deligözoğlu — 1992-01-01

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of treatment of wheat straw with aqueous ammonia on its digestibility and feed intake and weight gain of beef cattle fed two level of concentrate mixture. About five tones wheat straw stack treated with 40 g aqueous ammonia contains 25 % NH3 per kg straw for 30 days after covering the stack with plastic sheet. The digestibilities of untreated and treated straw was determined with four Merino rams. The digestibilities of dry mat. ter, crude protein, crude fibre, organic matter were 47.74, 58.80, 58.83 and 49.22 % for untreated straw and 49.59, 73.42,63.35,52.92 % for treated straw, respectively. In the feeding experiment, 28 bulls were allocated to four groups each of 7 bulls. Two level of concentrate mixture and two straw (treated and untreated) were given with a 2x2 factorial arrangement. The ammonia treatment decreased straw intake. No differences in the live weights gain were found among the groups.

Investigations of the effects on the blood glucose levels of surgery and general anaesthesia with xylazine -ketamine and xylazine-pentobarbital sodium in healthy dogs

Celal İzci, Ali Muhtar Tiftik, Yılmaz Koç, Mustafa Arıcan — 1992-01-01

In this study, the effects of surgery and general anaesthesia that is with xylazine -ketamine hydrochloride and xylazine-pentobarbital sodium used commonly in carnivore, on the blood glucose levels, were investigated. The study was carried out in two groups, that each was consist of 5 dogs. The investigation was carried out in two parts. In the first part, the animals in the first group were anaesthetized with xylazine -ketamine hydrochloride and the animals in the second group were anaesthetized with xylazine-pentobarbital sodium. In the second part, the same animals used in first part were anaesthetized with the same anaesthetic combinations, and than experimental laparatomie was made. In the both parts, 1-2 ml blood samples were taken from animals before anaesthesia and operation then on the 30 th, 60 th, 90 th, and 120 th minutes after anaesthesia and operation. Glucose values were detedmined with spectophotometer. As a result, it may be said that pentobarbital sodium used in study has no hyperglycemic effect, but xylazine and ketamine hydrochloride has significant hyperglycemic effect.

Sertolizelltumor und Seminom bei einem Kangal Hund

Hüdaverdi ERER, Metin Münir Kıran, Nuri Yavru — 1992-01-01

Bei einem 12 Jahre alten maennli-chen Kangal-Hund werden im rechten Hoden Sertolizelltumor mit Invasion und im Unken Hoden diffuses Seminom beschrie-ben. Beide Tumoren lagen im Skrotum. Der rechte Hoden war atrophisch, ca. 2 x 1.5 x 1.5 cm gross und derbe Konsistenz.Die Schnittflaeche war weisslich-grau und durch wenig entwickeltes Bindegewebe lobuliert. Pa-renchym des Tumors wurde aus ungeordneten und erweiter-ten Samenkanaelchen, gross vakuolhaltigen, oft laenglichen neoplastischen Zellen bestanden. Die relativ kleinen, chromat-inarmen Kerne mit einem Nukleolus hatten eine ovale bis langgestreckte Form. Mitosen traten sehr selten auf und Infiltration der Tumorzellen in die Umgebung war zu beobachten. Die Oberflaeche des ca. 18x13x8 cm grossen ünken Hodens war unregelmaessig. Die Schnittflaeche war grau-weiss, durch unterschiedliche grosse Knoten lobuliert und wiess blutige sowie nekrotische Herde auf. Mikroskopisch, wurde die tubulere Hodenstruktur unsichtbar. Durch sehr dunnes Stroma getrennte Zellen waren uniform, rund Oder polyhedral und wiesen dichte Massen auf. Tumorzellen hatten grosse, rundliche, blaeschenförmige Kerne mit einem Oder mehreren deutlichen Kernkörperchen. Zellriesen und mehrker-nige Riesenzellen wurden gelegentlich und Mitosen haeufiger festgestellt. Lymphozyten werden als herdförmige Anhaeufun-gen Oder lockere Infiltrationen im Stroma besonders perivas-kulaer und an den Tumorraendern nachgewiesen. Haemorrha-gische Bezirke und nekrotische Herde sowie Hyperaemie wurden aufgewiesen, wobei in manchen Gefaessen metasta-tische Tumorzellen angetroffen wurden. Dies ist die erste Fallbeschreibung dieser primaeren kom-binierten Hodentumoren in der Turkei.
