Diarrhea is one of the most important issues in ovine medicine, particularly in lambs, and because of high morbidity and mortality rate, sluggish growth performance, and veterinary costs, it is believed to be a major source of economic loss. Salmonella and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli are the most common and commercially significant agents responsible for diarrhea.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>The objective of this study was to monitor the nucleotide sequence variations, gene expression, serum inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers in diarrheic lambs.

The second sample received 5000 I.U. of heparin calcium, and a clean plain tube was used for the third component. The second and third sections were centrifuged to extract serum and plasma until the biochemical and immunological analysis was completed. Fecal samples were collected for bacteriological examination, and the bacteria were identified by PCR analysis. PCR-DNA sequencing was conducted for immune (SELL, JAK2, SLC11A1, IL10, FEZF1, NCF4, LITAF, SBD2, NFKB, TNF-α, IL1B, IL6, LGALS, and CATH1), antioxidant (SOD1, CAT, GPX1, GST, Nrf2, Keap1, HMOX1, and NQO1), and GIT health (CALB1, GT, and MUC2) genes in healthy and diarrheic lambs.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Virulent genetic markers of pathogenic characteristics of E. coli (astA, Vt2e (Stx2e), CFA/I, groES and luxS) and Salmonella (invA, SopB, bcfC and avrA) were detected in all diarrheic lambs. PCR-DNA sequencing of immune, antioxidant and intestinal health genes found eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) linked to either diarrhea resistance or susceptibility in Barki lambs.

When applied in cadmium-polluted tilapia culture, this nanogel reduced turbidity and ammonia in the aquarium, adsorbed cadmium from the water with a larger quantity on the gel's outer surface than in its center., and reduced cadmium concentration in tilapia's liver, gills, and muscles. Application of this nano-based cryogel reduced the toxic effects of cadmium on tilapia fish. It maintained hepatic and renal cell nuclear integrity as determined by comet assay. This nano-treatment also reversed the cadmium-induced elevations of plasma lipids, glucose, stress marker cortisol, the hepatic enzymes AST and ALT, and the kidney function marker urea, and improved the lymphocytopenia and other hematological functions in tilapia fish intoxicated by cadmium.</p>","PeriodicalId":9041,"journal":{"name":"BMC Veterinary Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11462889/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142387759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, diseases like fowl typhoid remain a challenge to livestock keepers. This study was aimed at understanding the attitude and awareness of Poultry keepers about the prevalence of fowl typhoid in chickens kept in Dodoma. A cross-sectional survey using semi-structured interviews was employed to understand farmers' perception of the prevalence of fowl typhoid and associated risk factors amongst poultry farmers in three wards in Dodoma, namely, Nkuhungu, Msalato, and Mnadani. The overall prevalence of fowl typhoid among farmers was 22.30%, with significant differences being noticed in the first quarter (January-March) and the third quarter (July-September) (P < 0.05). Factors such as age and sex, flock size, and management practices influence the prevalence of fowl typhoid significantly (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the farmers had challenges accessing the veterinary services due to their unawareness, the availability of the service, and their distance from the service. The control strategies for fowl typhoid should consider the influencing factors while improving the accessibility and availability of veterinary services to farmers.</p>","PeriodicalId":9041,"journal":{"name":"BMC Veterinary Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11462888/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142387746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
