Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity of Red Chittagong Cattle Using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA MarkersMohammad Masud Rana Mufti, Mst. Parvin Mostari, Gautam Kumar Deb et al.Problem statement: Red Chittagong Cattle (RCC) is a potential genetic resource in Bangladesh having dairy potentialities, high resistance to disease and survive harse environmental condition while require low input supply. This resource is now disappearing due to indiscriminate crossing with other local and exotic cattle. To conserve this resource, find out the genetic diversity of RCC is prime concern. Approach: … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2009 · 8,680 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Management of Effluents from Small Piggery Farms in MexicoJ.L. de Victorica-Almeida, M. Galván-García, R. Ayala-RuizIn Mexico, pig farming is the third most important livestock activity due to its contribution to the total meat production. However, it is estimated that around 38% of pig farms dispose their wastewaters without any treatment directly into the nation’s water bodies, which in turn has a severe impact in the environment. One reason for not treating is the high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiosorption of Cr(III) by Microalgae and Macroalgae: Equilibrium of the ProcessIzabela Michalak, Agnieszka Zielinska, Katarzyna Chojnacka, Jan MatulaEquilibrium experiments of chromium(III) biosorption by microalga (Spirulina sp.) and macroalga (Pithophora varia) were investigated in this paper. Influence of the following process parameters was studied: pH, biomass concentration and temperature. The equilibrium of the process was described with Langmuir equation. The model parameters were determined at various process conditions. The best operation conditions for the process were selected: pH … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Yeasts Enriched with Cu, Fe and Mn on Digestibility of Main Nutrients and Absorption of Minerals by Growing PigsDaniel Korniewicz, Zbigniew Dobrzanski, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing in 1 kg of dry product, separately 32.0 g Fe (Y-Fe), 23.0 g Cu (Y-Cu), 35.4 g Mn (Y-Mn), were used as the source of these microelements in complete diet for growing pigs. If considering livestock requirements, feed supplementation with this organic form of microelements, covered animals’ requirements in: Fe-27%, Cu-75%, Mn-30%. ZnO was the source … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioaccumulation of Cr(III) ions by Blue-Green alga Spirulina sp. Part I. A Comparison with BiosorptionKatarzyna ChojnackaThe paper presents the results of studies on kinetics and equilibrium of bioaccumulation process of Cr(III) ions by blue-green alga Spirulina sp. Bioaccumulation was described as the process that consists of two stages, passive (identical with biosorption) and active (accumulation inside the cells). The passive stage (similarly as biosorption itself) was found to be quick process and the subsequent active … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Levan by Bacillus licheniformis for Use as a Soil Sealant in Earthen Manure Storage StructuresAbdel E. Ghaly, F. Arab, N.S. Mahmoud, J. HigginsManure application is not permitted on frozen land in Canada and therefore, manure management and storage are the primary issues facing the agri-food industry. Low-cost, effective and environmentally safe earthen manure storage (EMS) facilities will lower costs and help make the livestock industry more competitive and efficient. The goal of this study was to develop a biological sealing technology for … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,974 accessesView PDFCite

Rahman, M.A. Jalil et al.This experiment was conducted in the Genetics, Breeding and Reproductive Biotechnology Laboratory under Goat and Sheep Production Research Division, Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute (BLRI), Saver, Dhaka, Bangladesh. DNA was extracted from 14 goat breeds and the extracted DNA was observed by gel electrophoresis. Eight goat specific primers were synthesized by ASM-800 DNA synthesizer and screened in the study and all … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 9,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecovery and Germination of Grass Seeds Ingested by CattleFerhat GökbulakSeeds of bluebunch wheatgrass [Psuedoroegneria spicata (Pursh) A. Love] and Sandberg bluegrass (Poa secunda Presl.) were fed to Holstein heifers in different amounts to investigate the effects of seed feeding level and seed size on the recovery and germinability of passed seed. Animals were fed 60,000, 30,000,15,000, and 7,500 seeds of each species. Passed seeds were recovered from dungcollected daily … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,752 accessesView PDFCite
