The study was aimed to investigate the possibilities of obtaining slaughtered kids using indigenous breeds in Saanen flocks, which does not require breeding. The cross-sectional surface of the Musculus longissimus dorsi (MLD) muscle was used to evaluate the some meat quality parameters. Evaluations were made after slaughtering and at 24th hour and on 7th day after the slaughtering. The average values of pH, pH 24, cooking loss, water holding capacity and shear force values obtained in research groups were 6.46, 5.02, 24.58%, 3.25% and 3.67 kg / cm2 in Honamlı x Saanen; In the same order, 6.46, 5.69, 25.66%, 5.59% and 4.52 kg / cm2 in Saanen and 6.62, 5.27, 22.69%, 2.55% and 4.25 kg / cm2, in the Turkish Hair x Saanen (F1) respectively. It was found in the study that L0 (brightness), a0 (redness) and b0 (yellowness) values were 47.50, 7.51 and 12.67 for Honamlı x Saanen crossbred kids, respectively. The same values were 48.34, 7.74, and 12.62 for Saanen kids and 47.73, 8.01, and 13.20 for Turkish Hair x Saanen crossbred kids, respectively. In the study, the amount of muscle fat in Turkish Hair x Saanen (F1) crossbred kids was found 2.85%. While there was no difference in oleic acid content among genotypes, the ω-6 fatty acids linoleic and arachidonic were detected in the Saanen kids with a maximum of 10.67% and 4.98%, respectively (P< 0.05). According to findings, It was found that Honamlı x Saanen (F1) cross kids have shown beter performance for many traits than others. Therefore, Saanen farms which has no need young breeding animal can use Honamlı bucks as patternal line for the butchered kid production. This application can be introduced to the sector.

Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is a viral disease affecting sheep and goats caused by peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) has a serious economic impact due to the restrictions on animal trade and animal movements and high mortality rates in small ruminant populations. The common clinical sings of the PPR are fever, muco-purulent nasal discharge, diarrhoea and abortion. Seroepidemiological studies of PPRV infection in sheep and goats in Turkey are scant. Therefore, this study was aimed to evaluate the seroprevalence of PPR in small ruminants in Turkey. Ovine blood samples were collected by random sampling method from sheep (n = 77) and goats (n = 61) from unvaccinated flocks (n = 40) in the Antalya Province in the Mediterranean region of Turkey. A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (c-ELISA) kit was used to detect antibodies against PPRV in sera samples. Out of 138 sera samples analysed, eighteen sera samples (13%, 95% CI: 7.4 - 18.7) were PPRV seropositive, of which 18.2% (95% CI: 9.6 - 26.8; 14/77) were from sheep, whereas 6.6% (95% CI: 0.3 - 12.8; 4/61) were from goats. Although PPRV seropositivity rate was higher in sheep than goats, it was not statistically significant (P = 0.07). PPRV seropositivity was higher in small ruminants older than 24 months (19.4%) compared with less than or equal to 24 months (7%) (P = 0.04). Although, there was no statistically significant difference between sexes, PPRV seropositivity rate was higher (14.5%) in females than males (10.9%) (P = 0.61). The flock-level seroprevalence was 30% (12/40). The result of the present study showed that seroprevalence of PPRV infection is high in sheep and goats in the Antalya Province. However, results of the study are not enough to determine the regional and country-based profile of the PPRV infection in Turkey. Further epidemiological studies are required to get more epidemiology data on PPR in Turkey.

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of slaughter weight and muscle types on carcass characteristics, chemical composition and meat quality characteristics of young Holstein Friesian bulls. For this purpose, the 21 young bulls were assigned to three experimental groups based on their weights at slaughter called lighter (LSW) (470.4±32.5kg), medium (MSW) (540.8±10.9 kg) and heavier (HSW) (605.8±28.3 kg). Animals in the HSW group resulted in higher carcass weight, LD area, crude protein content, pH24 value. On the other hand, L* and a* values color parameters and LD area per 100 kg carcass weight were significantly decreased with the increasing slaughter weight. The meat obtained from the LSW group were brighter and redder compared to other two slaughter groups. Additionally, there was a decreasing trend in the proportion of the non-carcass components with increasing of the slaughter weight. However, increasing of the slaughter weights led to a significant increase in the carcass measurements such as thoracic depth, carcass length, length of the round as well as width of the round. Although the crude protein content was significantly affected by both slaughter weights and muscle types, only muscle types were also significant sources of variation in percentages of moisture and crude ash.

The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of increasing doses of boron on methane gas production amounts, short chain fatty acids level, protozoa number and organic matter digestibility in vitro with HFT (Hohenheim Futterwert Test) technique. In vitro incubation was performed in the Hohenheim Gas test method at 39°C for 24 hours in the study. Dried alfalfa was used as substrate for fermentation. Increasing doses of boron were used on fresh rumen fluid, buffer solution and dried alfalfa. In the study, 54 syringes were used for a total of 6 groups, including 1 control and 5 trial ( B1: 25 ppm boric acid, B2: 50 ppm boric acid, B3: 100 ppm boric acid, B4: 200 ppm boric acid, B4: 500 ppm boric acid). The measurement of methane gas at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24th hours of boric acid addition at increasing doses was found to be significant the difference between the groups at each hour under in vitro rumen conditions. When we look at the effect of the dose; Increasing doses appear to reduce methane production for each measured hour. The difference between the measured hours (except the 24th hour) of each group was not significant. However, the difference between the groups was found to be significant in the methane measurement made only for the 24th hour. At the 24th hour of fermentation under in vitro rumen condition, acetic acid and total short chain fatty acid values were linearly and cubically affected. With increasing doses of boron, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, butyric acid and valeric acid values were linearly affected The total number of protozoa was not affected by the addition of increasing doses of boron at the 24th hour of fermentation under in vitro rumen conditions. Consequently, the addition of boric acid at increasing doses in in vitro rumen conditions decreased methane production and positively affected the amount of some short-chain fatty acids, organic matter digestibility and total short chain fatty acids. In the light of these findings, it was emphasized that boron has the potential to reduce methane emissions from ruminant animals, considering the greenhouse gas effect.

Aortic dissection is an uncommon finding in both dogs and cats. The precise pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the development of aortic dissection remain unclear. In humans, aortic dissection is usually secondary to another systemic disease, such as systemic arterial hypertension, an abnormality of connective tissues or a parietal trauma. This is a case of an aortic dissection in a hypertensive hyperthyroid cat, presenting with haemorrhagic pericardial effusion. The dissection affected both thoracic and abdominal aorta, with histopathological confirmation. This case is an example of the utility of both thoracic and abdominal ultrasound for the diagnosis of aortic dissection in cats and it highlights the importance of rigorous clinical examination. Aortic dissection should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pericardial effusion in cats. Further investigations are fundamental to understand how dissections develop and extend to achieve good clinical results. REFERENCES Braverman et al. (2012) Diseases of the aorta.

This study was conducted by carrying out a questionnaire with 98 enterprise owners rearing Anatolian water buffalo in 2015 in Igdir city of Turkey. The average daily milk yield, annual milk yield, and sales price buffalos milk of the enterprises were determined as 5.48±0.07 (kg), 1228.56±15.60 (kg/lactation), and USD1.06 (price/per kg), respectively. 3% of the produced raw milk was put on the market as raw milk, 20.9% as product, and 76.1% as raw milk + product. 81.54% of the processed milk was marketed as butter+cream+curd cheese, 7.69% as butter + cheese + curd cheese, and 10.77% is marketed as butter + cheese + yoghurt + curd cheese. It was determined that out of the companies selling raw milk, 88.7% sold to street milk + grocery stores and 11.3% sold to daily farms. As a result, in order to ensure sustainable buffalo breeding in Igdır province, buffalo milk collection centers, processing facilities, buffalo breeders' union should be established. Anatolian water buffaloes reared in Igdir city should be protected in order to protect the gene resources. Non-native buffalo insemination should not be allowed. Otherwise, it should be remembered that the heads rearing in each region are adapted into the region they inhabit in. Matings made to increase the amount of milk can affect negatively the properties like butter and cream yield. However, kinship degeneration should not be allowed in animals raised in the province. Mating of cows should be done with a system.

The average daily milk yield, annual milk yield, and sales price buffalos milk of the enterprises were determined as 5.48±0.07 (kg), 1228.56±15.60 (kg/lactation), and USD1.06 (price/per kg), respectively. 3% of the produced raw milk was put on the market as raw milk, 20.9% as product, and 76.1% as raw milk + product. 81.54% of the processed milk was marketed as butter+cream+curd cheese, 7.69% as butter + cheese + curd cheese, and 10.77% is marketed as butter + cheese + yoghurt + curd cheese. It was determined that out of the companies selling raw milk, 88.7% sold to street milk + grocery stores and 11.3% sold to daily farms. As a result, in order to ensure sustainable buffalo breeding in Igdır province, buffalo milk collection centers, processing facilities, buffalo breeders' union should be established. Anatolian water buffaloes reared in Igdir city should be protected in order to protect the gene resources. Non-native buffalo insemination should not be allowed. Otherwise, it should be remembered that the heads rearing in each region are adapted into the region they inhabit in.

In this study, MTGase (Control (without enzyme), A-0.5% MTGase (Group A), and B-0.8% MTGase (Group B) were added to rainbow trout meatballs at two different rates and the samples were stored at -18±1°C. The chemical (TVB-N, TBARS), physical (pH, water activity, color, texture, and cooking loss), microbiological (TMAB, TPAB, TYM, TCB, TAB, E. coli, and S. aureus), and sensory properties of the trout meatballs were examined for 210 days. The TVB-N and TBARS values remained within the limit values during frozen storage. The pH and cooking loss values of the control group were different from those of Groups A and B. The water activity values generally remained stable. The L* and a* values were affected by the addition of MTGase. Moreover, the textural properties and sensory quality of the trout meatballs improved. During the frozen storage, the limit values were not exceeded in all groups, except for the TCB values.

A total of 20 cows with caecal dilatation and dislocation were included in this retrospective study. The aim of the study was to describe the findings of the initial clinical examination, the haematological, biochemical and venous blood gas analysis as well as the therapeutic management and the surgical findings of these cases. A positive simultaneous percussion and auscultation in the right flank as well as rectal palpation of the distended caecum were the most common findings in 90% of the animals. Increased haematocrit, hyperlactateaemia and hyperglycaemia were the most often occurring laboratory findings. Conservative treatment using neostigmine s.c. (0.025mg/kg) was successful in three out of four cases. Surgical therapy including laparotomy in the right flank and typhlotomy was performed in 17 cases. Caecal dilatation (n=9), retroflexion (n=4) and torsion (n=4) were revealed intraoperatively. During surgery in three cows, the caecum had filled once again with fluid content and typhlotomyhad to be repeated. Typhlectomy was not necessary in any of these cows. A relaparotomy due to recurrence of the caecal disorder was not required in any of the cases during hospitalisation. The postsurgical treatment included antibiotics, neostigmine in all cows and fluid therapy in the majority of the animals. Laxative treatment using 250 g sodium sulphate twice daily per os was applied in 10 cases. All cows were discharged from the clinic and returned to the farm.

The experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of adding different levels of iron salts, iodine and vitamin B12 on yield, quality traits and antioxidant capacity of eggs in laying hens. A total of 320 laying hens (HyLine Variety White, 28 wk old) in a 2x2x2 factorial experiment were randomly assigned to 8 groups, and each group consisting of 40 hens (5 replicates of 8 hens each) for a period of approximately 13 weeks in a completely randomized design. Hens in the control group received a basal diet with no supplementation whereas hens in treat 2 received basal diet supplemented with 400 mg Fe/kg as FeSO4, treat 3 (basal diet + 450 mg I/kg as KI), treat 4 (basal diet + 0.1 mg B12vit/kg), treat 5 (basal diet + 400 mg Fe/kg as FeSO4 + 450 mg I/kg as KI), treat 6 (basal diet + 400 mg Fe/kg as FeSO4 + 0.1 mg B12Vit/kg), treat 7 (basal diet + 450 mg I/kg as KI + 0.1 mg B12Vit/kg), treat 8 (basal diet + 400 mg Fe/kg as FeSO4 + 450 mg I/kg as KI + 0.1 mg B12Vit/kg), respectively. The results showed that the use of iodine and vitamin B12 increased the shell thickness of eggs (P<0.05). The use of iron, iodine and vitamin B12 supplements increased the antioxidant capacity of eggs compared to the control group (P<0.05). The highest antioxidant capacity of eggs (0.77) was observed when these three supplements were used together in the diet of laying hens. The length of storage had significant effects on the weight of albumin and yolk and antioxidant content of eggs (P<0.05). The highest weight of albumin and antioxidant content was at the beginning of storage, while the highest weight of yolk was obtained in 4 weeks after storage, with increasing of storage time to 8 weeks, all three attributes of albumin weight, yolk weight and antioxidant content of eggs decreased (P<0.05). The related effects of interval of the storage and the experimental supplementation, the use of iron, iodine and vitamin B12 supplements increased the antioxidant capacity of eggs, so that the highest amount of antioxidants in eggs in 8 weeks after storage and by supplementing the diets with all three additives (P<0.05). According to the present experiment, the use of iron, iodine and vitamin B12 additives in the diet of laying hens, improves the performance, the content of iron and iodine elements in eggs and maintains the suitable condition of eggs during storage.

In a variety of diseases, altered respiratory modulation is often an early sign of autonomic dysfunction. Therefore, understanding and evaluating the effects of artificial ventilation on the autonomic nervous system is vital. The effects of artificial ventilation on autonomic balance have been assessed by heart rate variability using frequency domain and non-linear analysis including fractal complexity and entropy analysis in anesthetized mice. BALB/c mice (n=48) were divided into two groups: Spontaneous breathing and artificial ventilation. The electrocardiograms were recorded. Four different analyses were used: i. frequency domain analysis, ii. Poincaré plots, iii. DFA and iv. Entropy analysis. An unpaired t-test was used for statistical analysis. In a ventilated group, VLF and LF parameters were not changed, whereas the HF parameter was decreased compared to spontaneous breathing mice. DFAα1 was significantly increased due to artificial ventilation but DFAα2 was unchanged. SD2/SD1 ratio was increased, however, SD1 and SD2 were not significantly affected. Also, ApEn and SampEn remained unchanged. HF parameter, DFAα1, and SD2/SD1 were affected by artificial ventilation. Decreased HF and increased DFAα1, further support the notion that HRV is dominated by respiratory sinus arrhythmia at high frequencies, this may be due to decreased vagal tone caused by artificial ventilation.
