For this purpose, 150 day old broiler chicks were reared in floor pens and raised on commercial feed for 7 days for adaptation. After seven days, birds were distributed into five groups in such a way that each group contained 3 replicates and each replicate had 10 birds. All groups were fed commercial diet and offered water with or without additives. In control group drinking water was without any additives; In second group drinking water was supplemented with antibiotic (Flavomycin 10 ml/liter). The remaining three groups were supplemented with Lonicera japonica, Radix liquiritiae, and Codonopsis extract @ 20 ml/liter, 15 ml/liter, and 10 ml/liter in drinking water, respectively. Results indicated improved growth performance in broiler had supplementation of Chinese herbal extracts in drinking water as compared to control (P<0.05). A significant decrease in cholesterol and blood glucose was observed in those birds which had supplementation of Chinese herbs extracts in drinking water (P<0.05). Moreover, Chinese herbs extract in drinking water improved immune organ weight and immune indexes in broiler. It could be concluded that supplementation Chinese herbs extracts in drinking water had positive influence on growth performance, blood biochemistry and immune organs in broiler.","PeriodicalId":403375,"journal":{"name":"Poultry, Fisheries & Wildlife Sciences","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132531256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the present research has been carried out to understand the histomorphological architecture of the lymphoid organs (thymus, spleen, bursa of fabricius and intestinal villus) in Japanese quail. Initially 24 quail chicks were weighed and randomly divided into three age groups, i.e., a (2 weeks), b (4 weeks) and c (6 weeks). Histological study was performed on 3 μm thick transverse section, cut by microtome then fixed on slide and stained with haematoxylin and eosin, counter stain then tissue sections were examined on a Nikon phase contrast microscope the results of the gross morphology showed weight, length and width of lymphoid organs in all three age groups were insignificantly (p>0.05) higher in females than males, whereas, they were significantly (p 0.05) higher in females than males. However, they were significantly (p<0.05) higher in group c, b and a respectively. Thymus shows immature fine fibrous connective tissue capsule, septa were invaded by lobules into cortex and medulla, and spleen was encapsulated by thin fibroblastic contained numerous smooth muscle cells & elastic fibers in their elliptical capsule. It can be concluded that the size of the thymus, bursa of fabricius and spleen reached its maximum at 5 to 6 week of age in male and 6 to 7 in female. Regression of thymic lobules, splenic nodules and bursal follicles were noticed with a clear change in shape with advancement of age from 2 to 6 week of age with an increased number of hassall’s corpuscles and adipocytes, whereas, height and width of intestinal villi were significantly higher from 2 to 6 week followed by thymic lobules, splenic pulp, and bursal follicle.","PeriodicalId":403375,"journal":{"name":"Poultry, Fisheries & Wildlife Sciences","volume":"175 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114064327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Spores, the dormant form of the bacteria, can survive for decades in nature’s harshest environments and maintain their viability to cause disease. Outbreaks are common in free-ranging livestock and wildlife, thus making anthrax an economically and ecologically important disease. The currently available vaccine to protect livestock is a suspension of B. anthracis Sterne Strain 34F2 spores in saponin (Sterne vaccine). However, it is only available as a subcutaneous injection which is an impractical method of prevention for wildlife. Oral vaccination is the ideal method for free-ranging wildlife, but the Sterne vaccine has never been thoroughly evaluated for oral administration. The current study evaluated the antibody titers induced in mice by subcutaneous or oral vaccination with three different doses of the Sterne vaccine. Results described here show a gradual increase in antibody titers at each time point following subcutaneous vaccination with all vaccine doses. In contrast, no antibody response was detected from any dose or any time point after oral vaccination. Taken together, these results suggest that the Sterne vaccine is only effective as a subcutaneous injection and that an alternate oral anthrax vaccine formulation must be developed to allow for efficient vaccination of free-ranging livestock and wildlife.","PeriodicalId":403375,"journal":{"name":"Poultry, Fisheries & Wildlife Sciences","volume":"131 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133185555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
