#1 - In vivo amelioration of aflatoxin B1 in broiler chicks by magnetic carbon nanocomposite, 37(11):1213-1219

Abstract in English:

ABSTRACT.- Zafar R., Khan F.A. & Zahoor M. 2017. In vivo amelioration of aflatoxin B1 in broiler chicks by magnetic carbon nanocomposite. Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira 37(11):1213-1219. Department of Chemistry, University of Malakand, Chakdara, Dir Lower, 18800 KPK, Pakistan. E-mail: mohammadzahoorus@yahoo.com In this study an Iron oxide/carbon nanocomposite from maize straw was prepared and was characterized by XRD, SEM, EDX, FTIR, TG/DTA and Surface area analyzer. The adsorbent was fed to different groups of poultry birds along with aflatoxin B1. Different physiological and blood parameters were monitored in order to study the efficacy of the prepared adsorbent for binding of aflatoxin B1 in the gastrointestinal tract of chickens. It was found that adsorbent at dose of 0.3%/ kg feed was highly effective in detoxifying aflatoxin B1 in gastrointestinal tract of poultry birdswith no harmful effects. The high doses given to groups E and F; 0.4% and 0.5% respectively showed slight variation in tested parameters from group A. No negative symptoms associated with the use of activated carbon as previously reported were observed for the adsorbent under study.

#2 - Experimental poisoning of cattle and chicks by tive Senecio species

Abstract in English:

The toxicity of 5 species of Senecio was studied' experimentally in cattle and chicks. The chicks were fed during 60 days with a ration containing 5% of dry plant. All Senecio species were toxic in the following sequence of toxicity: S. brasiliensis, S. heterotrichius, S. cisplatinus, S. selloi and S. leptolobus. To cattle the plants were administrated at 22.5, 45, 90 and 180g per kg of body weight in a period from 15 to 39 days. S. leptolobus was not toxic at these doses. The other 4 species were toxic indicating its paiticipation in the occurrence of seneciosis in cattle in southem Brazil. The determination of the alkaloid content showed integerrimine and retrorsine (0.31 % of dry weight) in S. brasiüensis and S. heterotrichius (0.19%); retrorsine and senecionine in S. cisplatinus (0.16%) and S. selloi (0.10%) and neosenkirkine and florosenine in S. leptolobus (0.005%). Integerrimine, retrorsine, mixtures of integerrimine-retrorsine and neosenkirkine-florosenine were fed to chicken at 50mg per kg of food during 45 days; The mixture of necisenkirkine-florosenine was less toxic than the others. The alkaloids showed less toxicity than the dried plants, due probably to the loss of alkaloids during extraction or drying procedure or storage contions of the plants.

Abstract in Portuguese:

Com o objetico de determinar a toxicidade de espécies de Senecio existentes na região, cinco espécies desse gênero de planta foram administradas experimentalmente a frangos e bovinos. Para os frangos; que receberam a planta dessecada misturada a 5% na ração durante 60 dias, todas as espécies resultaram tóxicas na seguinte ordem de toxicidade: Senecio brasiliensis, S. heterotrichius, S. cisplatinus, S. selloi e S. leptolobus. Aos bovinos, as plantas acima mencionadas foram administradas dessecadas nas doses de 22,5, 45, 90 e 180g/kg de peso vivo. S. leptolobus não resultou tóxico nas doses utilizadas, e as outras 4 espécies foram tóxicas, o que evidencia que elas provavelmente participam na etiologia da seneciose em bovinos da região, de vez que tem sido encontradas com evidências de terem sido consumidas. Foi realizada a determinação química do conteúdo de alcaloides das espécies de Senecio utilizadas, observando-se integerrimina e retrorsina em Senecio brasiliensis (0.31% da matéria seca) e S. heterotrichius (0,19%); retrorsina e senecionina em S. cisplatinus (0,16%) e S. selloi (0,10%) e neosenkirkina e florosenina em S. leptolobus (0,005%). Integerrimina, retrorsina, misturas de integerrimina e retrorsina e neosenkirkina e florosenina foram administradas a frangos, durante 45 dias, na dose de 50mg/kg de ração, sendo que as intoxicações provocadas pelos alcalóides foram menos graves que as induzidas pelas plantas dessecadas, o que, provavelmente, foi devido à perda de alcalóides durante o processo de extração e/ou durante a dessecação e armazenagem das plantas.


#3 - Comparative evaluation of different administration methods of a vaccine prepared with the LaSota strain of Newcastle disease virus

Abstract in English:

A comparative study of different application methods of a vaccine prepared with the LaSota strain, in primary vaccination against Newcastle disease, was· carried out in broiler-chicks from immune parental stock. Primary vaccination of seven day old birds was performed by aerosol, eye drop instillation and drinking water. The aerosol method induced the highest response of the hemagglutination inhiniting antibody, which was significant at the 5% level of probability whem compared to the eyedrop and drinking water methods. Whem vaccinated birds were challenged, it was found that the aerosol method provided better protection than the drinking water method, significant at the 5% level of probability. However, no significant diferences could be detected between the aerosol and the eyedrop methods. There was no correlalion between the hemagglutination inhibiting antibody titers found and the protection to challenge.

Abstract in Portuguese:

Um estudo comparativo entre diferentes métodos de administração de vacina preparada com a estirpe LaSota, em primovacinação contra a doença de Newcastle, foi realizado em pintos de corte, procedentes de matrizes imunizadas. Empregando-se primovacinação aos sete dias de idade das aves, pelas vias aerógenas, ocular e oral; o método aerosol induziu melhor resposta de anticorpos inibidores da hemaglutinação (HI), com significância ao nível de 5% de probabilidade, em relação aos métodos ocular e oral. No teste de proteção ao desafio, verificou-se a supremacia do método aerosol em relação ao oral, com significância ao nível de 5% de probabilidade, entretanto, sem diferenças significativas entre os métodos aerosol e ocular. Os títulos de anticorpos inibidores da hemaglutinação, em têrmos de valores médios não guardaram correspondência com os índices de proteção ao desafio.
