The samples were collected from a large capacity slaughterhouse on two slaughter lines, from two groups of poultry. An antemortem and postmortem examination was conducted and the samples collected from the neck of poultry carcasses were analyzed using the VIDAS® bioMérieux automatic test using analytical technique. The results of the antemortem inspection indicated negative results. The postmortem examination on group I and group II indicated different types of lesions. The surveillance of contamination of poultry meat with germs of the genus Salmonella spp. highlighted 397 compliant samples in group I, out of a total of 403 samples and 6 non-compliant samples. Salmonella infantis was identified in these non-compliant samples following laboratory examination. The lesions associated with Salmonella infection are not specific and therefore there is no direct correlation between the results of laboratory examination and lesions.","PeriodicalId":9470,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca.

The serum level of uric acid was increased during the period of massive moult revealing a high protein catabolism. Total nitrogen manure was decreased during the period of massive moult, a fact attributed to the decrease in food intake.

The collection of 752 ovaries resulted in 608 oocytes descending from 2824 ovarian follicles by the method of ovarian scraping at a rate of 21.53% and an average of 0.80 oocyte/ovary. During the breeding season, 432 oocytes were collected whereas 176 oocytes were collected in the non-breeding season. The results showed that the number of cultivable oocytes during the breeding season was 256 oocytes (59.25%), while the number of cultivable oocytes in the non-breeding one was 120 oocytes (68.18%) at the level of p <0.001. The application of oocyte collecting by scraping method allowed obtaining a number of 608 oocytes, of which a number of 376 oocytes (61.84%) were cultivable, the rest of 232 oocytes (38.16%) were classified as uncultivable. It is concluded from the current study that the application of the ovarian scraping method in horses contributes to obtaining a high and encouraging rate of oocytes that can be used in in vitro embryo production programs.","PeriodicalId":9470,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca.

ELFO presents advantages that include time reduction low sample consumption, high method efficiency and the integration of results in the context. With sample proper preparation the method becomes accurate and robust and the reagents and consumables used are considerably reduced. This paper describes the adaptation and improvement of a raw milk protein analysis protocol, reported in the standard microfluidic electrophoresis analysis procedures of Agilent Technologies. The described protocol makes adaptations regarding the preparation of biological samples composed of raw milk in the pre-analytical stage with multiple benefits in reporting the final results. Besides the proteins, in the composition of milk, significant percent of fats could be found and the described procedure is practically another step required for the elimination of those interfering substances. This method involves the pre-analytical stage of preparation of raw milk samples, separation and quantification of major milk proteins and total protein content. The improvement proved to have an important beneficial impact on the analysis as the result was very accurate in terms of quantity and quality and also it has drastically reduced the errors in data interpretation of the equipment.","PeriodicalId":9470,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca.

Regarding mitochondrial distribution, the percentage of oocytes that had a homogeneous distribution around the germinal vesicle was higher in group C1 than C2 and also higher in sow oocytes than in gilts oocytes. For class 1, the difference was 10.58% in favor of sows, the same trend is maintained for C2, the difference being 4.37%. The results are confirmed by morphological examination, where C1 sow’s oocytes matured 26.09% more, compared to gilts oocytes, a difference maintained for C2 oocytes, being 27.4% more sow’s oocytes IVM compared to gilts. Based on mitochondrial distribution we observed that the stage of sexual development of females influences the IVM of oocytes.

In order to have a maximal effect, probiotic bacteria have to prove a high tolerance for the conditions present in the upper gastro-intestinal tract. The aim of the present study was to assess, from a qualitative point of view, the tolerance of different probiotic bacterial strains and combinations to simulated gastric juice, bile, fructose, lactose and glucose. Also, the influence of food on the bacterial growth after artificial digestion was analyzed. A bacteriologic assessment was realized for three different commercial probiotic products (Bacillus subtilis + Bacillus licheniformis + Pediococcus acidilactici; Enterococcus faecium; Bacillus subtilis + B. licheniformis + B.coagulans + B.indicus + B. clausii), simulating different conditions (artificial digestion method in the absence/presence of food, presence of bile, fructose, glucose, lactose). The obtained results suggested that the tolerance to simulated gastric juice is higher if the food is present in the moment of digestion, regardless of the probiotic bacterial strain or combination. Also, the tolerance to bile was different from one combination to another. The influence of fructose, lactose and glucose are not remarkable from a qualitative point of view. Moreover, the growth of different probiotic bacterial strains is influenced by the simulated gastro-intestinal conditions, sporulated bacteria presenting a slightly higher tolerance compared with non-sporulated strains.","PeriodicalId":9470,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca.

Although many methods have been developed based on the analysis of protein substances by which adulteration is detected, they have low efficiency in the case of processed products. In this context, methods based on DNA analysis have become the best choice, although the results are not universally valid and must be adapted to the composition and local specificities. Here is presented a study of the applicability of a fast and cost-effective DNA-based method to determine the species composition of dairy products by performing a qualitative triplex PCR detection technique in the analysis of local dairy products. The procedure is adapted to the domestic market and considers experimental models developed and well defined internationally. In the in-house validation of this method, three species of ruminants were considered: beef, sheep, and goat. The reference material was represented by cheeses prepared in our laboratory in strictly controlled percentage mixtures. Total genomic DNA isolated from the reference cheeses were used to develop a triplex PCR method, which involves the simultaneous detection of the three species studied using a mixture of three pairs of primers. The reference materials proved to be optimal for such studies and have been used successfully in the process of validating the method of detecting the composition of commercial cheeses.","PeriodicalId":9470,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca.

The data obtained were statistically analyzed, calculating the Mean and Standard Deviation (Microsoft Excel).
