| Cadmium (Cd), a toxic heavy metal, is often associated with the reproductive disorders of mammals. The edible bird’s nest (EBN) is a naturally occurring food product made from the saliva of swiftlet birds ( Aerodramus fuci-phagus & Aerodramus maximus ) in the form of a nest, and it has been consumed as healthy food or tonic for decades. This research aimed to study the possible protective effects of EBN against Cd toxicity in ovaries of Sprague Dawley rats. Thirty (30) female Sprague Dawley rats were assigned into five groups as follows: group 1-Negative control (NC) received distilled water; group 2-positive control (PC) administered with CdCl 2 , 5mg/kg BW; while groups EBN 1, EBN 2, and EBN 3 received CdCl 2 (5mg/kg BW) concurrently with graded concentrations of 60, 90 and 120 mg/kg BW of EBN, respectively. After four weeks of treatment, rats were euthanized to collect ovaries for histopathological studies using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stain. Expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were analyzed through immunohistochemistry, and levels of superoxidase dismutase (SOD) were assessed using a SOD assay kit. Oral administration of CdCl 2 without EBN supplement resulted in significantly decreased (p<0.05) immunohistochemical expressions of VEGF in ovarian tissue and a decrease (p<0.05) in the activity of SOD. Moreover, ovarian histopathological changes, including follicular cysts and a significant increase (p<0.05) in the number of atretic follicles, while a decrease in the number of growing follicles was noted in Cd only treated group. Animals treated with CdCl 2 and EBN at three different dosages resulted in significantly increased (p<0.05) expressions of VEGF in ovarian tissues, low degenerative changes with normal histomorphology as well as significantly increased (p<0.05) SOD activity as compared to the PC group. Overall, the findings revealed that oral exposure to Cd at a dose rate of 5 mg/kg BW resulted in significant alterations in ovaries, as evidenced by a lower degree of VEGF expression along with reduced antioxidant activity and histomorphological changes. Meanwhile, EBN proved to exhibit a significant protective role against Cd toxicity in ovaries, possibly through its antioxidant effect.

| The current study aimed to investigate the bacteriological quality of the ready-to-eat (RTE) meat sandwiches prepared using the meat and treated ingredients viz., green salad and tahini sauce. Two hundred and forty samples of RTE meat sandwiches, vegetable salad, and tahini sauce were used in the study. The washing of vegetable salad for 10 min with water providing 50 ppm chlorine reduced (p < 0.05) the aerobic plate count (APC), Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) count. Similarly, addition of 1% garlic essential oil during formulation of tahini sauce reduced (p < 0.05) APC, B. cereus and S. aureus count. The counts in RTE meat sandwiches after using treated green salad and tahini sauce reduced (p < 0.05) APC count from (5.58 ± 1.21 and 6.54 ± 1.12) to (3.2 ± 0.22 and 4. 89 ± 0.31) log10CFU/g. The counts of B.cereus reduced (p < 0.05) from (2.98 ± 0.11 and 3.34 ± 0.15) to (<2 and 2. 49 ± 0.09) and S.aureus reduced (p < 0.05) from (3.18 ± 0.15 and 3.85 ± 0.13) to (<2 and 2. 87± 0.09) log10CFU/g. These results demonstrated that use of treated vegetable salad (washed by chlorine water) and tahini sauce (containing 1% garlic essential oil) in preparation of RTE meat sandwiches results the improved bacteriological quality of RTE meat sandwiches.

| Respiratory disorders have an economic effect on the dairy industry. The purpose of this study was to di-agnose cattle with respiratory problems, as well as to assess the nature of the lesions. A variety of practical approaches are used to examine respiratory disorders in cattle. The present study involved 55 cows of which 10 cows were clinically healthy and served as the control group. Cows were brought to the clinic for a number of complaints, including in-appetence, cough, dyspnea and nasal discharges. The total leucocytic counts, aspartate aminotransferase activities, and carbon dioxide tension were significantly higher in all diseased cows. The ultrasonographical examination of the lungs demonstrated several comet-tail artifacts in cows affected with pulmonary emphysema. Various degrees of pulmonary consolidation in bronchopneumonic cows were observed. Furthermore, cows with pleurisy showed anechoic pleural effusion with fibrin deposits and an irregular pleural surface. It is concluded that, hematological and biochemical findings are the key indicators of bovine health, and they are more expressive when correlated with the history, clinical symptoms, and ultrasonographic examination of cows with respiratory diseases.

but Abstract | This study aimed to determine the effects of selenium (Se) injection on 1) the Se concentration in blood, 2) the body condition score, 3) the number of artificial fertilizations per conception, and 4) the days open of dairy cows. In the conduct of the study, forty-two (42) Holstein cows were divided into control and treatment groups. The treatment groups were classified based on the parity of the dairy cows (2 ∼ 3, 4, 5, and 6 ∼ 7 parity). The control group was fed with basal diet while the treatment groups were fed with basal diet plus 40 mL of Se injection. The results showed that the Se concentration in blood was greater in treatment groups than that in the control group (p<0.05). The average Se concentrations in 2 ∼ 7 parity treatment groups and the control group were 0.24 and 0.16 mg/L, respectively. The effects of Se injection on the number of artificial inseminations per conception and on the days open of dairy cows, on the other hand, resulted to be lower in the treated cows compared to the untreated cows or control group. The average number of artificial inseminations per conception in the 6 ∼ 7 parity treatment group (1.50) lowered by half than the control group (3.67). The treated cows also showed a decrease in days open as compared to the untreated cows. The days open decreased by an average of 13.35 days in the treatment groups (126.96 days) compared to the control group (140.31 days). In conclusion, these results indicate that the injection of Se to dairy cows might affect the parameters of their reproduction such as the number of artificial inseminations per conception and days open.
