In this study, ventricular wall volume of female and male quails was investigated stereologically. Six females and six males were used in this study. All of the animals were perfused. After the perfusion, the quails were kept in 10% formaldehyde solution. Afterwards, chests of quails were cut and their hearts were resected. Ventricles of the hearts were separated. Specific ratio of tissue samples was obtained from each ventricle. The 5-µm thick samples were cut by using a microtome. Sequentially, 10 sections were obtained. These sections were stained by hematoxylin eosin and photographed. Volumes of all tissues of the ventricles were estimated by using the Cavalieri Estimator. In this study, the volume values of female and male quails were compared. Some differences were found between these values. The volume values of six female quails were compared with each other. While the lowest volume value was 0.398 cm³, the highest volume value was 0.612 cm³. The male quails’ volume values were between 0.438 cm³-0.817 cm³. It was found that volume values of male quails were higher than volume values of female quails. As a result, although there was a specific distinction between volume values of female and male quails’ ventricles, there was no difference between statistic values (P>0.05). It was thought that this study will be guiding for other related studies.

This study was carried out to make was to determine the craniometric characteristics of the crania of Akkaraman and Kangal Akkaraman sheep, local breeds of Turkey, by using computed tomography (CT). Equal numbers of healthy male Akkaraman and Kangal Akkaraman sheep heads aged 8-12 months were used in the study (n=12/group). The images were obtained by scanning the heads with a CT device. These images were converted into a three-dimensional structure using the 3D Slicer program and their morphometric measurements were calculated. In the study, a total of 13 parameters and 5 indexes were measured in the skull. As a result, the morphometric differences of the skulls of Akkaraman and Kangal Akkaraman sheep were determined by statistical methods. All the characteristics examined were expressed as mean ± SE. Results of our study, when the craniometric data were examined a statistically significant difference was found in skull length, skull width, greatest length of the nasal bone, greatest breadth across the nasal, medial frontal length, cranial width, facial width, height of the foramen magnum, greatest breadth of the foramen magnum, greatest frontal breadth and least breadth between the orbits parameters (P 0.05). It is thought that the presented study may be useful to veterinarians in the fields of surgery and clinical practice, and to studies in the field of zooarchaeology, as well as sheep taxonomy.

This study was carried out to examine the effect of adding potato chips waste, which is a by-product of the potato processing industry, on silage quality, as an easily soluble carbohydrate source, to the alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) plant, which has a high buffering capacity and is therefore difficult to ensilage. In the study, alfalfa (Medicago sativa) harvested at the 10% flowering point was used as the plant material. Four different groups were formed by adding the silage groups prepared in the study, alfalfa plant control (without additives), and potato chips waste at the rates of 0.5%, 1% and 2% on a wet weight basis to the alfalfa plants. The silages were opened at the end of the 60-day fermentation period and raw nutrient compositions and fermentation products were identified. When the effects of the silages prepared by adding different levels of chip waste to alfalfa plant on the nutrient value were examined, the differences between the groups in terms of dry matter (DM), crude ash (CA), acid detergent fiber (ADF) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) content of the silages obtained from the study were statistically significant. While it was not significant in terms of CP content, the differences between the silage groups were found to be statistically significant. In the study, when the pH, ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N), carbon dioxide (CO2) production and total yeast mold values of the fermentation properties of the silages were examined, decreases were observed due to the addition of chips compared to the control group. When the total lactic acid bacteria (LAB) values of the silages were examined, an increase was observed after the addition of 1% chips. As a result, when all the parameters were examined, it was determined that the silages prepared by adding 1% chips waste had positive effects on silage fermentation.

The current study investigated whether commercial collagens were within physiologically acceptable limits to ensure their safer use. For this purpose, 10 of the 25 most popular collagen from fish and farm animals (FA) sold on the internet were randomly selected and purchased from a pharmacy. The zinc, lead, cadmium, mercury, and arsenic levels in these commercial products were then analyzed by ICP-OES. Streptomycin, sulfonamide, tetracycline, and chloramphenicol levels in the samples were determined by HPLC. No lead, mercury or arsenic residues were found in any of the tested samples. The mean cadmium levels in fish and FA collagen samples were not significant between the groups (P=0.2548). The lowest cadmium level in fish collagen samples was 0.152 mg/kg and the highest cadmium level was 0.288 mg/kg. Cadmium levels detected in FA collagen samples ranged from 0.183 mg/kg to 2.78 mg/kg. The mean zinc levels in fish and FA collagen were not significant (P=0.2644). The lowest zinc level in fish collagen was 1.368 mg/kg and the highest was 2673 mg/kg. The lowest and highest zinc levels in FA collagen were 1,750 mg/kg and 1528 mg/kg, respectively. According to the current results, no streptomycin, sulfonamide, and tetracycline residues were found in any of the collagen samples evaluated. Chloramphenicol was only in two fish collagen samples, but these values were below the lower detection limits. The results indicated that the risk of heavy metal and antibiotic residues in commercial collagen sold in our country is low.

The transmission of West Nile Virus (WNV) to new locations is mostly facilitated by migratory birds. Türkiye's domestic ducks, geese, and chickens have already tested positive for WNV by serology. This study was conducted to identify the seroprevalence of WNV in wild bird species because wild birds in the Western Mediterranean Region are found along migration routes from Africa to Europe, they are home to a wide variety of bird species due to the abundance of lakes and wetlands, the mild Mediterranean climate, and some areas that are suitable habitat for mosquitoes due to their low altitude. Serum samples were taken from 141 wild birds in Isparta (66), Burdur (42), and Antalya (33) for this study on birds in the wild. During serological studies, there was no evidence of WNV-specific antibodies.

In this study, the gingival inflammation degree of dogs was determined according to the Gingival Index (GI). According to this index, it was aimed to determine the free gingiva (FG), attached gingiva (AG) and alveolar mucosa (AM) temperatures of the gingiva of dogs with healthy gums by means of a thermal camera. The material of the study consisted of the gingiva of 140 dogs aged 2 years and older, who were brought to Burdur Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Hospital, Surgery Clinic, non-brachiocephalic and without periodontal destruction in their gingiva. Healthy maxillary (n= 427) and mandibular (n= 671) gums in addition maxillary (n=432) and mandibular (n= 463) gums with gingivitis were included in the study. The FG temperature of the buccal surface of the healthy maxillary gingiva was 36.25±1.43°C, the AG temperature was 36.81±1.37°C, and the AM temperature was 37.53±1.30°C. The FG temperature of the buccal surface of the healthy mandibular gingiva was 35.46±1.42°C. In addition the AG temperature was 36.26±1.35°C, and the AM temperature was 37.01±1.22°C. The FG temperature of the maxillary gums with gingivitis was 36,40±1,32°C, the AG temperature was 36,95±1,21°C, and the AM temperature was 37,57±1,21°C. The FG temperature of the mandibular gums with gingivitis was 35,82±1,26°C, the AG temperature was 36,57±1,16°C, and the AM temperature was 37,27±1,10°C. Temperature difference (r) between in maxillary and mandibular FG (r= 0.78°C and p= .000), AG (r= 0.52°C and p= .000) and AM (r= 0.51°C and p= .000) of dogs with healthy gums temperatures were found to be significant. Temperature difference between maxillary and mandibular FG with gingivitis (r= 0.58°C and p= .000), AG (r= 0.38°C and p= .000) and AM (r= 0.29°C and p= .000) were found to be statistically significant. It was concluded that the thermal camera can be an effective diagnostic tool in detecting inflammatory changes in the gingiva.

In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of ethanol extract of Punica granatum L. peel (PGE) on oxidative stress and histopathological values in blood and testis tissue in rats with diabetes. In present study used twenty-eight male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into four equal groups containing of seven rats per group. Group 1; peros physiological saline to the rat, Group 2; STZ 60 mg/kg/IP single dose, Group 3; PGE 10 mg/kg/20days/peros, Group 4; STZ as 60 mg/kg/IP + PGE 10 mg/kg/20days/peros. After the end of the experimental procedure, the rats were sacrificed, blood and testicular tissues were taken, and biochemical and histopathological examinations were performed. The administration of PGE was shown that the activities of CAT, SOD, GPx and GSH increased and the levels of MDA decreased in diabetic rats. Oral administration of PGE reduced the levels of LPO and improved the antioxidant activity in plasma and testis tissues while compared with the Groups 4. Histopathological examination of testicular tissues in the Group 2 is revealed edema in the intertubular spaces, thinning of the tubule walls due to diminished spermatocytes in the walls of the seminiferous tubules and severe degenerative and necrotic changes in spermatocytes. These changes were found to be very mild in Group 4. According to immunohistochemical findings, in Group 2, caspase 3 expression was intensely expressed in spermatocytes. As a result, it was observed that Punica granatum L. peel extract strengthened antioxidant defense and reduced oxidative stress in diabetic rats.

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the correlations with leptin, ghrelin, irisin and insulin levels in the blood serum of cattle with subclinical ketosis. For this purpose, 10 healthy and 10 Holstein cattle with subclinical ketosis obtained from farms in Burdur region were used. A diagnosis of subclinical ketosis was made according to the Rothera test performed in milk, by performing a general clinical examination of the animals. Blood samples were taken from vena jugularis into tubes without anticoagulant. Serum leptin, ghrelin, irisin and insulin levels were measured in the obtained sera using commercial ELISA kits. In cows with subclinical ketosis, serum ghrelin, leptin, irisin and insulin values were increased compared to the control group (p

People are looking for new sources of nutrition as a result of the growing global population. Alternative seafood, such as crabs, mussels, and shrimps, have gained interest recently as a source of nutrients in addition to traditional seafoods. This study aimed to develop new strategies for reducing Escherichia coli count in shrimp In our study, the effects of nisin, lactic acid, acetic acid and their combinations were investigated in shrimp contaminated with E coli. At the end of the study, a statistical difference was found between the effects of single and combined use of all substances (p
