Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEFFECTS OF MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR GENE ON GROWTH AND MEAT TRAITS IN PIGS RAISED IN RUSSIAA. Klimenko, A. Usatov, Lyubov Getmantseva et al.The Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R), a G-protein coupled receptor, is implicated in mediating the effect of leptin on food intake and energy balance. A previous candidate gene study reported an association between an MC4R polymorphism (Asp298Asn) and growth and meat productive traits of pigs. The aim of this work was to determine frequencies of the MC4R/Taq I genotypes and alleles in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMORPHOPHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATIONS OF THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT IN PIGLETS FED A SESAME MEAL OR SOYBEAN MEAL DIETAraceli Aguilera Barreyro, Tércia Reis de Souza, Gerardo Mariscal-Landín et al.An important indicator to recommend a protein source for piglet nutrition is the absence of intestinal damage. The effects of sesame or soybean meal based diets on Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) morphophysiology, diarrhea incidence and severity in piglets were studied during the first two weeks post-weaning. Thirty-six piglets weaned at 21 days of age were fed one of three diets: A … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2014 · 7,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTRANSMISSION CONTROL PROTOCOL PERFORMANCE COMPARISON USING PIGGYBACK SCHEME IN WLANSAli Ahmad Milad, Zul Azri Bin Muhamad Noh, Abdul Samad Shibghatullah et al.The main problem at wireless networks is the overhead at MAC layer; when the data physical rate is increasing it causes increasing the overhead and decreasing at the MAC efficiency. In this study we study the performance comparison of TCP protocol in WLANs with and without using piggyback. The study of results concerning of implemented both mechanisms in NS2 simulator … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 2 Jul 2013 · 7,360 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Splay Leg Syndrome in Piglets: A ReviewVassilis G. PapatsirosProblem statement: The splay leg syndrome is the major congenital cause of lameness in suckling piglets. It is characterized by a temporarily impaired functionality of the hind leg muscles immediately after birth, resulting in an ability to stand and walk. Etiology and pathogenesis is complex and remain still poorly understood. Approach: The aim of the present study is to perform … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 19 Jul 2012 · 10,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Comparison of Spectrophotometric Method and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography in Photosynthetic Pigments AnalysisSabina Jodłowska, Adam LatałaProblem statement: Spectrophotometric method and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) are the most useful tools to photosynthetic pigments analysis. The main objective of this reaserch was to compere the results obtained by these two independent methods in experiments under controlled laboratory conditions. Approach: Comparison between spectrophotometric and HPLC methods for pigment analysis was carried out on Baltic cyanobacterium Geitlerinema amphibium, which … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2011 · 10,865 accessesView PDFCite
