Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPHENOTYPING, VIRULENCE CHARACTERISTICS OF AEROMONAS SPECIES AND THE EFFECTS OF ESSENTIAL PLANT OILS AS ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS AGAINST PATHOGENIC ISOLATES FROM DIFFERENT SOURCESAhmed M.A. Mansour, Hoda M. Zaki, Nibal A. Hassan, Nihad A.M. El-NasharAeromonas species are increasingly recognized as enteric pathogens. Faecal samples from 20 cow, 45 sheep; 60 goat and 60 camels were examined for the presence of Aeromonas species, which was also sought in the available drinking water (55 well water and 52 drinking chlorinated tap water were also examined). Aeromonas species was isolated more frequently from goats (21.7%) than from … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2014 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Compositions and Resistant Starch Content in Starchy FoodsAnuchita MoongngarmResistant Starch (RS) is one of nature’s most interesting bioactive compounds. There is a wide variety of starchy food plants in Thailand that are good sources of RS, but they have not been well studied. As such, this study was carried out to investigate the potential food source of RS. Twenty-two promising food plants were selected. The samples included (1) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Mar 2013 · 15,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Antifungal Bacteriocin-Synthesizing Strains of Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis as the Perspective Biopreservatives for Protection of Raw Smoked SausagesL.G. Stoyanova, E.A. Ustyugova, T.D. Sultimova et al.Problem statement: Screening for the effective bacteriocin-synthesizing strains of Lactococcus lactis as the perspective biopreservatives was performed. We used a raw milk and dairy products from different climatic regions as well as from powerful drinks of mixed lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation: kurunga, kumiss and Iranian “Dough”, that were widely used by local population to prevent diseases. Approach: The special … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 15 Dec 2010 · 9,683 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Determination of Buffering Capacity of Some Ruminant's Feedstuffs and their Cumulative Effects on TMR RationA. MoharreryTwo experiments have been conducted in order to investigate the buffering capacity of some ruminant's feedstuffs and their additivity to calculate ration buffering capacity as a tools for feed formulation. The first experiment was performed with different types (65 samples) of feedstuffs to determine the Buffering Capacity (BC) and Buffer Value Index (BVI). For investigation of cumulative effects of buffering … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,434 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of a DNA Vaccine for Immunocontraceptive Potential Against Zona Pellucida Glycoproteins in CattleC.A. Foley, S.M. Boyle, R.E. Pearson, F.C. GwazdauskasHolstein cows were administered zona pellucida (ZP) DNA vaccine and used to determine the potential of recombinant rabbit ZP glycoproteins (rZP) as immunocontraceptive antigens. Zona pellucida proteins were purified and quantified. Cows were assigned to one of four treatment groups in which plasmids encoding rabbit ZP proteins were administered, i.d., using a gene gun (ZP55, n=2; ZP75, n=2; Hep55, n=2; … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,888 accessesView PDFCite
