Abstract

The amelogenin gene-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay offers a precise, efficient, and cost-effective approach for embryo sex determination in cattle. This method capitalizes on genetic differences between the X and Y chromosome-linked amelogenin genes, enabling early sex identification critical for livestock management. Our study outlines the methodology, from embryo collection and DNA extraction to PCR amplification and gel electrophoresis analysis. Results consistently demonstrated the assay's reliability, identifies that all examined embryos were female embryos (X/X) across developmental stages with a male and female control (X/Y) (X/X) respectively, validating the technique. This study underscores the assay’s potential for advancing selective breeding and enhancing productivity in the cattle industry.

Abstract

The ocular surface microbiome (osum) is an organized group of microorganisms along with owned genes residing on eye surface. The latter collection is a normal trait for eye health with a participant protection role. In the present original article of prospective case series the presenting author aimed at reporting natural treatment with osum, as because of microbiome modulation of ‘treat to target’ purpose. Given disadvantages of drugs used in ophthalmology, and based on selected probiotic strains with a very limited choices, presenting author decided to change ocular surface microechology by transferring microbiome from healthy donors to diseased 7 dogs. Canine allergic conjunctivitis (n=3), n=1 each for Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis co-morbidity infectious ulcerative keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis sicca, Canine Monocytic Ehrlichiosis related infectious ulcerative keratitis and vision loss were entire problem list. On every session a healthy donor was selected and used for transfer of ocular surface microbiome by use of sterile cotton swab.Complete recovery (n=3) and partial recovery (n=1) were evident out of 7 dogs enrolled. This natural treatment modality, unless this technique was developed by the presenting author, could substitute drug usage at least for canine allergic conjunctivitis along with microbiome modulation

Abstract

Understanding raptor breeding biology is essential for conservation. This study assessed the captive breeding of the Lanner Falcon (Falco biarmicus) and raptor presence in Libya. A pair acquired in 2018 was provided with artificial nests and monitored throughout the 2024 season. Clutch size ranged 4–6 eggs with a 32-day incubation. In 2024, all eggs hatched, producing three fledglings independent after four months. Between 2018–2025, the pair laid 35 eggs, yielding about 25 fledglings, confirming high captive success. Field surveys in October–November 2024 recorded 53 raptors: Falco peregrinus (39; Least Concern), F. biarmicus (6; resident), and Falco cherrug (8; Endangered, migratory). F. peregrinus was the most frequent, with Al Kufrah identified as the main hunting area. Results highlight the effectiveness of captive breeding for Lanner Falcons and underline urgent threats to wild populations, particularly habitat loss and poaching. Strong conservation actions are critical for sustaining both resident and migratory raptors.

Abstract

The outbreaks of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) and Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) in early 2024 significantly impacted livestock health conditions in Blitar City and led to an increase in emergency slaughter cases. The Dimoro Slaughterhouse plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of animal-derived food through the implementation of antemortem inspections. This study aims to evaluate the health status of beef cattle and identify pathological conditions detected during antemortem inspections at the Dimoro Slaughterhouse. The research used a quantitative descriptive method with direct observation of 40 cattle during the period of June 13–19, 2025. Clinical examinations were conducted on the head, neck, thorax, abdomen, anus, and limbs. The results showed that most cattle were male (34 heads) and predominantly of the Limousin breed (19 heads). No clinical symptoms of FMD, LSD, fever, or other disorders warranting slaughter rejection were found. Mild findings such as dirt around the anus were recorded in some individuals. Overall, the antemortem inspection was carried out effectively and contributed to ensuring the safety of meat products for public consumption.

Abstract

The continuing increase in egg consumption has led to the need to ensure that the laying hen industry sector is able to keep up with the need for eggs, one way is by increasing the productivity of laying hens and ensuring that laying hens can lay eggs on time. This study aims to determine the number and diameter of the bursa of Fabricius lymphoid follicles in late-laying pullets laserpuncture. This research is a 2x4 factorial complete randomized design experimental study. Chickens were divided into two groups, First Grade and Second Grade. Each Grade group was further divided into four groups based on laserpuncture points, namely control, Ova, weigen, and Ova-weigen. The variables observed were the diameter and number of lymphoid follicles of the bursa of Fabricius microscopically. The observation data were analyzed statistically using analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by the Duncan test. The results of the analysis showed that 0.5 Joule laserpuncture had a significant effect on the diameter and number of the bursa of Fabricius lymphoid follicles (p<0.05). Laserpuncture shooting 0.5 Joules at the Wei Gen point shows the smallest diameter of the lymphoid follicles. While Ova point showed the smallest number of bursa Fabricius lymphoid follicles.

Abstract

This study aimed to detect the presence of Salmonella sp. in broiler chickens raised in closed house systems using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method. Liver and intestinal samples were collected from chickens showing clinical signs such as diarrhea, anorexia, and lethargy, along with pathological lesions observed during necropsy. Bacteriological identification involved isolation using selective media, Gram staining and biochemical tests. Two samples (3A and 3B) showed colony morphology and biochemical characteristics consistent with Salmonella sp. Confirmation using PCR targeting the invA gene (primers 139 and 141, expected amplicon size 284 bp) yielded negative results in both samples, while the positive control successfully amplified the target. The inconsistency between bacteriological and molecular results may be attributed to several factors: absence or mutation of the invA gene in the tested isolates, primer mismatch with local Salmonella strains, or inadequate DNA quality and concentration. These findings suggest that reliance on a single molecular marker may be insufficient for accurate detection and underscore the importance of optimizing PCR conditions. The study highlights the need for locally adapted primers and complementary diagnostic approaches to improve the reliability of Salmonella sp. detection in poultry, particularly in intensive production systems like closed house environments.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of probiotic supplementation on serum leptin levels in neonatal Holstein calves over a 28-day period. Neonatal calves were allocated into three groups: probiotic administered from birth (Group 1), probiotic administered from the third day after birth when feeding with milk commenced (Group 2), and a non-probiotic control group. Leptin levels were measured on days 0, 14, and 28. A significant decrease (P = 0.013) in leptin levels was observed in Group 2 on the 14th day compared to the Control group. Conversely, a significant increase (P = 0.017) in leptin levels was detected in Group 1 on the 28th day compared to the Control group. Changes in body weight over time were not statistically significant (P > 0.05) across the groups. No significant association between leptin levels and body weight was observed at the end of the intervention. These findings indicate that probiotic supplementation, regardless of the timing of initiation after birth, does not have a substantial impact on serum leptin levels during the neonatal period in Holstein calves. Further research with larger sample sizes and consideration of additional factors influencing leptin levels is warranted.

Abstract

Pausinystalia yohimbe was investigated for its effects on the gut health and blood profile of broiler chickens. A study involving 225 chickens fed a basal diet or a diet supplemented with a larvicide or varying doses of yohimbe (240, 300, or 360 mg/kg) was conducted. At 56 days old, blood and intestinal tissue samples were collected. The results showed that the diets had no significant effect on PCV, Hb, RBC, and WBC. However, at the starter phase, chickens fed 360 mg/kg of yohimbe had significantly higher (p<0.05) eosinophil counts. Supplementation with 240 mg/kg of yohimbe led to significantly higher (p<0.05) levels of total protein, albumin, globulin, and uric acid. In the finisher phase, the 360 mg/kg group showed significantly higher (p<0.05) total protein, albumin, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Also, chickens fed 240 mg/kg of yohimbe showed the best results for duodenal villi height and crypt depth. The 300 mg/kg group showed the highest (p<0.05) jejunum villi height and a significant increase in ileum villi height and crypt depth. In conclusion, supplementation with yohimbe at 240 mg/kg is recommended for improved blood and intestinal health in the starter phase, while 300 mg/kg is most effective for the finisher phase.

Abstract

Nigella sativa possesses immunomodulatory and antiviral properties, but its effects during infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infection remain unclear. This study evaluated the impact of N. sativa seed powder (NSSP) supplementation on serum biochemical indices of cockerels challenged with very virulent IBDV (vvIBDV). One hundred Dominant Black Marshal birds were divided into five groups (A–E): Groups A and B received a basal diet, C and D received 2.8 g/kg NSSP from 21–27 days of age (doa), and E received NSSP continuously from 1–42 doa. On day 28, Groups B, D, and E were orally challenged with vvIBDV. Serum collected from days 1–42 was analyzed for total protein, albumin, globulin, urea, and creatinine. Results revealed that Group E had significantly (p < 0.05) higher total protein (from 31 doa) and globulin (from 32 doa) up to 42 doa compared to other groups. The albumin/globulin ratio was significantly lower (p < 0.05) in Group E from 31–42 doa, while serum albumin, urea, and creatinine showed no significant differences. These findings demonstrate that sustained N. sativa supplementation enhanced serum globulin response during vvIBDV infection, thus, suggesting its potential as a natural immunostimulant in poultry health management.

Abstract

Utilization of plants improve nutrient utilization and health. There is paucity of information on comparison of phytochemical and antioxidant potentials of Vernonia amygdalina, Carica papaya and Moringa oleifera leaf extracts. Leaves were air dried and soaked in 1.32 litres of absolute ethanol and placed on electronic shaker for 72 hours. The stock solution was filtered with muslin cloth, crude extract from the ethanol was then separated using rotary evaporator and dried at 40oC. Phytochemical and antioxidant analyses of the crude extract were then carried out using standard procedure. Results showed that the extracts contained glycosides, flavonoids, terpenoids, saponin, tannin, phytate and oxalate and varied significantly (P<0.05) in their antioxidants. Phenols (27.75±0.33), Flavonoids (2.97±0.01), FRAP (22.82±0.51), DPPH (63.89±1.55) and Vitamin C (60.19±0.17) had significant higher values in M. oleifera. It can be concluded that the plant extracts have very rich phytochemical and antioxidant compositions with potential to boost immunity in livestock.
