It is critical that the spermatological characteristics of semen obtained from breeding bulls using appropriate methods are stored using appropriate methods. During long or short-term storage of spermatozoa, an ideal storage medium must be used. For this purpose, diluents have been developed to meet the needs of spermatozoa. An ideal semen diluent contains ingredients that spermatozoa need, such as energy substances, protective agents against cold shock, buffering solutions that protect against pH changes, cryoprotectants to reduce damage to spermatozoa during freezing, and antibiotics against microbial contamination. Semen dilution also allows to increase the available semen volume to obtain more straws. maintaining spermatological parameters at the best possible level during semen storage has important economic implications in this industry. for this reason, scientists continue to develop new diluents in order to obtain optimum benefit from semen diluents. this review is written to provide information about semen diluents used in bulls.","PeriodicalId":508538,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Journal of Kastamonu University","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139155869","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}

Material and Methods: Fifty beef samples, each weighing 100 grams, were randomly acquired from butchers and markets. High-performance liquid chromatography was utilized for sample analysis. Main results: The MRL for red meat in the European Union (EU) and the Turkish Food Codex (TGK) is 100 μg/kg for enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and tetracycline, while according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) it is 200 μg/kg. Residues of oxytetracycline, enrofloxacin, and its metabolite ciprofloxacin were found below the maximum residue limits determined by the TFC and FAO in 5 (10%) out of 50 beef samples. In 90% of the samples, no residues of enrofloxacin, oxytetracycline, and ciprofloxacin were detected. However, enrofloxacin residues were found in 2 muscle samples (4%) at concentration of 47 µg/kg and 57 µg/kg, and ciprofloxacin residues of 60 µg/kg. Additionally, oxytetracycline residues were detected in 2 samples (4%) at concentrations of 88 μg/kg and 95 μg/kg. It was observed that oxytetracycline and enrofloxacin are used in fattening in Hatay province and pre-slaughter waiting periods are adhered to.","PeriodicalId":508538,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Journal of Kastamonu University","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139163683","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}

The calves were detected with intermittent fever, diarrhea, and pneumonia that did not respond to treatment. The most remarkable finding at necropsy was hepatosplenomegaly. The diagnosis of Salmonella spp. was confirmed from the samples taken from the calves and antibiograms revealed resistance to many antibiotics. The disease was not seen again after attention to management practices and application of protective septiserum. In the presented case report, it was pointed out that chronic Salmonella spp. infection may cause severe losses in calves and also pathological findings of the infection, antibiotic resistance, preventive and management practices.","PeriodicalId":508538,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Journal of Kastamonu University","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139167115","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}

The case data were obtained from a 2.5 kg male tabby feline, aged 6 months, who was presented to a private veterinary clinic. Following the examination of the cat, vomiting was observed as a side effect of the anaesthetic administered during the eye removal surgery. Macroscopic parasites were detected in the stomach contents. In order to identify the species, the parasite was placed in a tube filled with 70% alcohol. The Toxocara cati species was later identified microscopically at the Parasitology laboratory of Selçuk University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. Our case report contains useful information since toxocariasis infection in cats is rarely seen in the stomach contents and has zoonotic importance. This case is presented with the hope of raising awareness, especially among veterinarians working in animal hospitals and small animal clinics.","PeriodicalId":508538,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Journal of Kastamonu University","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139180965","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}

Despite the fact that cats of any age can develop this tumor, there is no breed or sex-specific susceptibility. Clinical examination, fine-needle aspiration biopsy, and histopathologic investigations are used to confirm the diagnosis of the illness. Early disease detection and surgical treatment are crucial for disease management. The patient's age, general health, and metastatic melanoma are taken into consideration while deciding whether to enucleate the eye. The case material was a female Russian blue cat that was neutered at the age of 5, weighed 4.5 kg, and was taken to the surgical clinic of the faculty of veterinary medicine at the University of Siirt. According to the patient's medical history, a brown spot-like pigmented region had developed on the right eye's iris two months prior, and up until the cat was brought to the clinic, the pigmented patches in the iris grew in number and size. The diagnosis of iris melanoma was made after a routine clinical examination, tonometry, hematologic, and biochemical tests showed that the melanoma foci had solely damaged the iris surface and had not spread to other eye tissues or organs. It was decided not to undertake surgery because the disease was still in its early stages and the patient's general health was good based on clinical examinations. The owner of the patient was instructed that during the follow-up phase, the foci should be checked and the patient should continue to be under supervision. When the patient was summoned back for a follow-up examination three months later, it was decided to undertake enucleation in case any potential melanoma foci or metastases had grown in other eye tissues or organs.","PeriodicalId":508538,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Journal of Kastamonu University","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139316469","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}
