Innovative Production Strategies for High-Quality, Traditional Pig Products
In a number of European countries (e.g., Spain, Italy, France, Portugal, Slovenia, Croatia, Poland), a portion of the pig sector is aimed at the production of traditional and certified products (e.g., PDO-Protected Designation of Origin, PGI-Protected Geographical Indication). Dry-cured ham is probably the most famous traditional pork product; however, typical pork products are produced in (and exported to) many countries worldwide. The meat used for producing these high-quality delicacies needs to be suitable for seasoning and dry-curing, and these characteristics are the result of complex interactions between the animal (breed, genotype, rearing condition, feeding regime, age and weight at slaughter, etc.) and the environment, without disregarding the importance of ethical attributes such as animal welfare and the environmental impact. This Special Issue focuses on all the innovative production strategies for pigs intended for high-quality, typical productions (in term of higher sustainability of the whole production chain, improvement of animal welfare, innovative feeding and farming techniques, reduction in environmental impact, improvement in meat and fat quality, etc.), with emphasis on PDOs, PGIs, and other recognized production schemes, and it is aimed at providing new insights for a wide range of stakeholders from different countries.
Rvt & Veterinary Assistant Job Aid
This is my personal work and tool I use to help support me with my tasks and duties as a registered veterinary technician (RVT). Anyone who has worked directly with me knows about my pocket brain. I have shared and exchanged information in this small book to aid myself in patient care as well as support others who may have struggled and/or needed similar information to excel in their daily duties. The original book was created in 1999 but was lost. I restarted this book in 2006 as I felt the absence of this vital tool while on the floor in the clinical setting. Many have suggested that I turn it into a book so that more can benefit from it. It is a combination of things I have learned, researched, looked up, and experienced in my position as an RVT. I see this growing and adjusting with our role as veterinary technicians and assistants as a result of ongoing advances in care for our furry friends. This is just the start of volumes to come.

Mammalian Sexuality
There are more than 6000 species belonging to twenty-seven orders in the Class Mammalia. Comparative studies of this diverse and magnificent array of extant species provide valuable opportunities to formulate and test hypotheses concerning the evolution of reproduction. This is the first book to explore, in depth and breadth, the complex interrelationships that exist between patterns of mating behaviour and the evolution of mammalian reproductive anatomy and physiology. It focuses upon the role that copulatory and post-copulatory sexual selection have played during the evolution of the monotremes, marsupials and placental mammals, and examines the effects of sperm competition and cryptic female choice upon coevolution of the genitalia in the two sexes. In addition, due weight is also given to discussions of the modes of life of mammals, and to the roles played by natural selection and phylogeny in determining their reproductive traits.
Bone Graft and Biomaterials in Small Animal Surgery
Delayed union, malunion, nonunion therapy, osteomyelitis, arthrodesis, pseudoarthrosis and bone defects are problems encountered in orthopedics. Along with regulation of reduction and stable fixation, auxiliary measures such as the use of bone graft or bone graft materials are very important in most cases. Bone graft materials usually have one or more components. These components are an osteoconductive matrix that provides a scaffold for new bone growth, osteoinductive proteins that support the mitogenesis of undifferentiated cells, and osteogenic cells that can form bone in the appropriate environment. Autologous bone is considered the "gold standard" for stimulating bone repair and regeneration, but can be found in limited quantities and the material collection procedure may result in complications. Bone graft materials can be used in place of autologous bone graft or it can be enhanced by adding to the existing amount of autologous bone graft. In this book, it is aimed to examine bone graft and graft materials available in orthopedic surgery.
Recycling of Japanese Quail Hatchery Waste in Their Breeder Diets
Feeding of quail is a major factor in quail production since the feed constitutes over 70 to 75 per cent of the total cost of production of quail. The fast growing quail industry, their higher nutritional requirement, comparatively poor feed efficiency, short supply of ingredients, increase in prices of most of the feed ingredients result in high cost of Japanese quail production.Under present conditions, a newer search becomes a necessity to discover at least a few feed ingredients which can either partly or wholly replace the favoured feed stuffs so that the production cost of quail is reduced. Fish meal which is the commonest animal protein supplement used in livestock feed could be replaced by animal by-products such as meat meal, blood meal, poultry by-product and hatchery by-product meal. Even if it is assumed that consequent poor plane of nutrition will reduce the performance, there could be a favourable economic trade-off in reduced production cost as a result of lower feed costs. In this context, there has been growing interest in utilization of hatchery waste.

Metabolic profiling of hyperinsulinemic horses
Insulin dysregulation mediates the increased risk for laminitis associated with the two most common equine endocrinopathies, pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) and the equine metabolic syndrome (EMS). This thesis aimed to describe the metabolic profile of horses with this condition to help elucidate the cause for the increased insulin production it elicits and possibly uncover some pathomechanisms leading to laminitis. Besides identifying metabolites correlated to the level of the insulin response to an oral glucose test, such as carnitine, arginine and DOPA, this project revealed the potential of such molecules in recognizing horses with insulin dysregulation without complex diagnostic tests. Additionally, it allowed to concretely quantify the reduction of the insulin response to oral carbohydrates following weight loss, while differentiating the respective metabolic impact of weight gain and worsened insulin dysregulation. Lastly, metabolites associated with subsequent laminitis were described. Altogether, the results provided new concepts for the identification of insulin dysregulation, supported an association between this condition and vascular dysfunction, helped distinguish the metabolic impact of weight variations from the effect of insulin dysregulation, and suggested that carnitine and arginine could be investigated as nutritional supplements to treat insulin dysregulation.
In vitro and in vivo development of a topical drug for the treatment of equine skin cancer - based on naturally occurring and synthetically modified substances in plane bark
Equine sarcoids (ES) and equine malignant melanoma (EMM) are among the tumors affecting horses diagnosed most frequently. Both cutaneous neoplasms can be a significant cause of economic losses, morbidity and mortality in the animals. The treatment of equine skin cancer can be challenging and established, evidence-based therapies resulting in sustained tumor regression are rare. The pentacyclic, lupane-type triterpenes betulinic acid (BA) and betulin can be isolated from many botanical sources, predominantly from the bark of white birch and plane trees. In addition to various biological properties, they have gained attention mainly due to their anticancer features. Within the framework of the current PhD project, the compounds BA, BA derivative NVX-207, and betulin derivative betulinyl-bis-sulfamate were assessed in various in vitro and in vivo studies for their potential as a topical therapy for ES and EMM. In conclusion, the results generated from cell culture experiments, skin permeation assays and studies in the target species are promising. Further advancement of the investigational medicinal products studied herein could lead to an effective topical and marketable, novel drug which helps to relieve suffering and, consequently, improve the welfare of equine skin cancer patients.
Pharmacological preconditioning and ischaemic postconditioning in experimental jejunal ischaemia in horses
Strangulating obstruction of the small intestine in the horse is associated with a high mortality rate. Although many intestinal lesions can be treated surgically, more effective strategies are needed to decrease the occurrence of complications related to the intestinal segments that are not amenable to intestinal resection. The aim of this PhD was to determine the feasibility and effect of two novel treatment modalities in equine small intestinal ischaemia. Therefore, ischaemic postconditioning and pharmacological preconditioning with lidocaine and xylazine were investigated in two experimental in vivo studies. By evaluating different variables for intestinal ischaemia reperfusion injury by use of histomorphology, immunohistochemistry and biochemical analysis, the results of this study demonstrate the applicability of these treatments in experimental small intestinal ischaemia in horses.

No One Should Die of Rabies
This book is about the victory of science, and yet, the failure of our system to deliver its benefits to the needy, causing more than 55,000 deaths year after year due to rabies.Why should someone die of rabies when we have all the means to protect each life? Why do developing countries still suffer when developed countries have largely eliminated the disease? Although rabies is incurable, and once contracted equals to a death sentence, it can be effectively prevented with an inexpensive vaccine.These questions, and many more, haunt those whose loved ones are exposed to rabies and yet cannot find clear answers, leading to panic and anxiety. Even medical professionals are not well versed with latest recommendations and methods for dealing with each patient's unique condition. The abundance of half-baked and misleading information causes further confusion and mismanagement in a time when urgency is crucial. Each rabies death is a failure of our knowledge-sharing and health-care systems.This book contains easy access to medically correct, evidence-based information to aid both doctors and patients in informed decision-making.The author, a doctor and a top writer on Quora - the popular knowledge sharing platform - has made the whole subject easy to understand and interesting to read, with to-the-point answers and without academic jugglery.
Poultry Health
Poultry are a major source of valuable high-quality protein for much of the world's population, so food security is heavily dependent on maintaining poultry health. They are also increasingly important specialist hobby animals as backyard flocks. Despite this, veterinarians specializing in the care and health of these important domestic animals are few and far between, and many vets in small animal practice have little real experience of poultry health management and disease. Providing a comprehensive overview, this new handbook plugs that gap with 46 chapters of practical and accessible poultry health and management. The book: Covers the poultry industry, basic avian biology, infectious and non-infectious diseases and their agents, infection control, and disease investigation and legislationIncludes full color images for ease of identification and diagnosis, in addition to practical guides to disease preventionConsiders areas of increasing global importance, such as antimicrobial resistance.Written by international experts, this book forms a valuable illustrated resource for veterinary professionals, veterinary students, or those entering the poultry industry.
A Paw Partnership
A Paw Partnership charts a path toward hope and healing through partnerships between pet parents and the professionals who care for their pets. Neha Taneja knew the statistics. From her vantage point as veterinary practice manager, she'd watched the industry take its toll on her peers. Now she, too, was on the brink of burnout. By stepping away from the profession, Taneja found the compelling perspective offered in A Paw Partnership: How the Veterinary Industry is Poised to Transform Over the Next Decade.Through deeply personal storytelling, A Paw Partnership diagnoses an ailing industry's symptoms: For over-scheduled pet care professionals, the buffer between the beloved patient who died on the operating table and the next patient on the schedule may be little more than a five minute window and an exam room door.Doctors come out of veterinary school and medical school equally in debt. But the average salary of a veterinarian equals that of a department store manager.Without the systems and support they need, pet care providers risk burnout, compassion fatigue, depression, and suicide.
Prevalence of ovine and caprine babesiosis in Baligubadle-District. An empirical study
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Veterinary medicine, grade: 4.99, Makerere University (Veterinary Medicine), course: Animal diseases, language: English, abstract: This study was undertaken to know the Babesiosis prevalent in Ovine and Caprine in Baligubadle District, Hawd region, Somaliland. This study will add an additional advantage of the Babesiosis to cover the further way for launching sustainable animal disease controlling and minimizing in Somaliland. However there is little data on national herd distribution and composition up to date. Furthermore there is little information about the prevalence of Babesiosis in sheep and goats in Baligubadle district. Therefore this study is aimed at investigating the prevalence of sheep and goats Babesiosis in Baligubadle district, Somaliland. Ovine and caprine babesiosis is an acute or chronic infectious disease of sheep and goats, caused by two species of Babesia, transmitted by ticks, and characterized by fever, anemia, hemoglobinuria and icterus. Ovine and Caprine Babesiosis is caused by two antigenically different species of Babesia: B. motasi, is a large and more virulent form, occurring singly or paired in erythrocytes; B. ovis which is a small form. The main objective of this study was to establish the prevalence of Babesiosis in sheep and goats in Baligubadle District, Somaliland. Cross sectional study that has been carried out at 19 April up to 15 July in five villages in Baligubadle district. A total of 350 sheep and goats were sampled. Slides were made from a whole blood collected from the auricular vein of the animals. After staining, slides were read under a light microscope.

Pharmaco-toxicological characteristic of Iron(IV) clathrochelate complex. An analysis
Scientific Study from the year 2020 in the subject Veterinary medicine, grade: 500, language: English, abstract: The monograph summarizes for the first time the data of the literature and own preclinical and clinical studies of iron (IV) clatrochelate. Data on its physicochemical properties, acute and chronic toxicity, features of accumulation of iron in new rare valences in the form of clatrochelate are described. For the first time its antianemic activity is characterized. The scientific publication is intended for a wide range of scientists, teachers, graduate students, students of higher education institutions, veterinary specialists. An animal health is now regarded as one of the factors of the veterinary well-being in every country, so the issue of treating animals with pathological conditions and their prevention is given considerable attention by both scientists and veterinary practitioners. Uncontrolled usage of medicines cause an increase of toxic effects in human and animals organisms. In accordance with the guidelines of the preclinical study of drugs, every new drug must be evaluated for the following indicators: the toxicity of the bioassay to infusoria; the toxicity in laboratory animals after a single administration (acute toxicity); the cumulative properties; the toxicity in laboratory animals after long-term administration (chronic toxicity). The following study works with animal obduction and shows the methodology in pictures.

Comparative anatomy of head region bones of barking and sambar deer
The barking deer, also recognized as Indian Muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak) is a cervid species, indigenous to South and South-east Asia has been classified on the IUCN red-list as the Least concern. The sambar deer, also called Sunda sambar (Rusa unicolor) is a large cervid species that is indigenous to the Indian subcontinent, Southern China, and Southeast Asia has been categorized by the IUCN red-list as 'vulnerable' due to a decrease in their population year by year. This book describes the comparative morphology (gross, radiography, and computed tomography) of the skull of barking and sambar deer in detail. It also includes various important landmarks on the skull bones for tracking of nerves on the head region for regional anesthesia in both species.

Reproduction and Development in Annelida
This book is a concise informative elucidation of all aspects of reproduction and development in annelids covering from arenicola to tubifex. Annelids flourish between 4,900 m depth to 2,000 m altitude; some of them occur in unusual habitats like hydrothermal vents and subterranean aquatic system (stigobionts). A few have no gut and acquire adequate nutrients through osmotrophism and/or engaging symbiotic microbes. In the absence of exoskeleton to escape predation, the 17,000 speciose annelids have explored bewildering modes of reproduction; not surprisingly, 42-47% of them are brooders. With 13,000 species, polychaetes are gonochores but some 207 species of them are hermaphrodites. Clitellates are all hermaphrodites; of them, 76 species are parthenogens, of which 56 are earthworms.Regenerative potency of annelids ranges from an organ to an entire worm from a single 'seminal' segment. The head, tail and both together can be regenerated 21, 42 and 20 times, respectively. However, the potency is limited to 1% of polychaetes and Heterogamatic sex determination is reported to occur only in six polychaete species, although karyotype is known for 83 annelid species. In temperate polychaetes, a dozen neuroendocrines, arising mostly from the 'brain' regulates reproductive cycle. A complete chapter devoted to vermiculture, (i) recognizes the fast-growing candidate species, (ii) distinguishes 'layers' from 'brooders', (iii) indicates that the harvest of oligochaetes may reduce the input of nitrogenous fertilizer in the ricefield, and (iv) explores the scope for increasing wealth from waste.
Identity, Gender, and Tracking
Using in-depth interviews with veterinary students, Identity, Gender, and Tracking: The Reality of Boundaries for Veterinary Students explores the experience of enrollment in an educational program that tracks students based on the species of animals that they wish to treat. The identity of a veterinarian is one characterized by care; thus, students have to construct different definitions of care, creating a system of power and inequality. Tracking produces multiple boundaries for veterinary students, which has consequences not just for the veterinarian, but also for the treatment of animals. Written for administrators and students alike, Identity, Gender, and Tracking sheds light on how and why veterinary students construct their identities and end up in certain specializations.

Using in-depth interviews with veterinary students, Identity, Gender, and Tracking: The Reality of Boundaries for Veterinary Students explores the experience of enrollment in an educational program that tracks students based on the species of animals that they wish to treat. The identity of a veterinarian is one characterized by care; thus, students have to construct different definitions of care, creating a system of power and inequality. Tracking produces multiple boundaries for veterinary students, which has consequences not just for the veterinarian, but also for the treatment of animals. Written for administrators and students alike, Identity, Gender, and Tracking sheds light on how and why veterinary students construct their identities and end up in certain specializations.

Newcastle Disease Virus Infection in Chicken
Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) is a highly contagious pathogen and causes massive death rates in poultry. Our understanding of the free radicals pathophysiology of NDV is limited. To fill this gap, we present the findings of investigation on the pathological effect of NDV on vital organs of the chicken (Brain and liver). This books is divided into four chapters and it documents the 1) significant perturbations in the antioxidant defense system of the brain and liver of chicken during NDV infection 2) free radicals mediated immunopathological consequences which were gratified by the immunofluorescence studies 3) lower endogenous levels of vitamin E in the NDV infected animals. This book also describes the possible external supplementation of vitamin E to the infected birds for the improved antioxidant defense system, reduced viral titer, and improved life span of infected birds following pronounced immunity.

The Effect of Allogenic Cell Cultures on Type I Diabetic Rats
Scientific Study from the year 2020 in the subject Veterinary medicine, grade: 10, language: English, abstract: This study investigates the changes in the pancreas of rats with the introduction of alloxan, confirming histologically the presence of pathological processes characteristic of type I diabetes. Additionally, a cytogenetic analysis of rat cells in culture obtained from red bone marrow, adipose tissue and pancreas during subcultivation in the in vitro system was performed and their phenotypic characterization was given. Furthermore the histological changes in the pancreas of rats were analysed with the introduction of cell cultures obtained from different sources against experimental diabetes and studied the changes in the blood glucose of experimental animals with the transplantation of cellular material. Despite the shortcomings of the modern methods of treating animals with type I diabetes using insulin therapy, as well as the fact that pancreatic β-cell death is one of the important elements in the diabetes pathogenesis, new approaches to the treatment of this disease using cell technologies are being studied. Recent studies of β-cells in the in vitro system have shown that they have a fairly high regenerative capacity, but in the in vivo system with diabetes, these cells almost do not recover. The development of methods that can activate β-cell regeneration is an important area of the scientific research. To date, mainly red bone marrow is used as the source of stem cells for research, because this is the only tissue of the adult body that normally contains immature, undifferentiated and low-differentiated cells. However, adipose tissue is being increasingly used as an alternative source for stem cells, from which they can be isolated in significantly larger quantities using less invasive methods compared to using red bone marrow. It is worth noting that there are still a lot of unclear issues in the study of the pancreas regeneration ways, theref
