Gastrointestinal parasites (GIPs) negatively impact small ruminant production and productivity nationwide, particularly in tropical and sub-tropic regions. Amongst other nematodes,
,
, and
are the most common species in small ruminants animals. Thus, this study aimed to investigate communal sheep farmer's knowledge and attitudes toward GIPs in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa.
A cross-sectional survey was conducted between September and November 2018 from three agro-ecological zones, namely, arid region, semi-humid, and humid. All data from this study were analysed with the Statistical Analysis System.
Of the total of 107 farmers who participated in the study, 69% were males, and 38% were females. Most livestock owners (85%) were aged >46 years old across all the study areas. The majority of farmers (83%) perceived that their animals are susceptible to wireworm (
) during the hot-wet season, followed by the hot-dry season (14%), with relatively low during the cold season (2%). Most far in the study area. It was also suggested that farmers should adhere to remedial instruction and adopt rotational deworming programs to avoid anthelmintic resistance.
This study concludes that most farmers perceived lambs as more susceptible to GIPs than old sheep. Therefore, farmers should be enlightened about the infection and transmission dynamics of the GIPs to develop appropriate control measures against worm infection to boost sheep production in the study area. It was also suggested that farmers should adhere to remedial instruction and adopt rotational deworming programs to avoid anthelmintic resistance.
The research was designed to assess the consequences of
aqueous leaf extract (AILE)
neuropathic pain in Wister rats and the role of the ATP-dependent potassium channel (K
) as an underlying mechanism.
This experimental layout was conducted on Wistar rats (
= 120) having 150 to 200 gm of body weight. On the foundation of the experimental design, rats were divided into group I (normal saline, 5 ml/kg/body weight) and group II (sham surgery and treatment with NS), group III [chronic constriction injury (CCI) in the sciatic nerve; and treated with NS], group IV (CCI and treated with AILE 400 mg/kg body weight), Group V (CCI, pretreated with Glibenclamide 15 mg/kg followed by treated with AILE 400 mg/kg). All the treatments were given once daily for a consecutive 21 days via the oral route, except Glibenclamide. Glibenclamide was given once through the intraperitoneal route on the day of the experiment.
Based on the neuropathic pain evaluation test, all groups were again sub-divided into subgroup "aolved.
To elucidate the cellular mechanisms of polyherbal formulation [Kolin Plus
(KP)], genomics was performed to delineate the genes and pathways associated with lipid regulation through transcriptional profiling of the liver in commercial broilers raised on diets deficient in choline chloride (CCL).
The gene expression patterns were studied for four groups [normal diet normal, choline chloride deficient (CCD), KP (400 gm/ton), and CCL (400 gm/ton)] using Agilent microarray on day 42. The hierarchical cluster analysis was carried out on 12,614 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with a similar expression.
Out of 12,614 significant DEGs, 1,926, 448, and 1,330 genes were expressed at higher rates, and 413, 482, and 1,364 were expressed at lower rates than CCD (CCD
normal), CCL (CCL
CCD), and KP (KP
CCD), respectively. GO enrichment analysis of DEG further revealed the significant association of biological process items with the lipid, sterol, and lipoprotein metabolic processes. In particular, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha, carnitine palmitoyl transferase I, hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase trifunctional multienzyme complex subunit beta, and patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 2 genes involved in fatty acid oxidation and lipase C, ABCG5, ABCG8, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, ATP citrate lyase enzyme, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma genes involved in lipogenesis were altered by KP intervention for lipid metabolism.
These findings reveal that the supplementation of KP prevents fatty liver-associated problems in broiler chickens by modulating the expression of the above-mentioned genes that are responsible for the oxidation of fatty acids and lipogenesis in the liver.

This experiment investigated the effects of synbiotic supplementation produced from probiotics and prebiotics from trimmed asparagus by-products (TABP) on broiler chicken diets in order to yield designer meat production.
A total of 320 one-day-old Ross 308® chicks were randomly allocated to dietary treatments with four replications each (
= 20). The dietary treatments were composed of a control group without supplementation and treatment groups fed with 10, 30, and 50 gm/kg of TABP supplementation in diets combined with 2 gm/kg probiotics.
The results showed that broilers fed dietary supplementation of TABP with 2 gm/kg had a lower level of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the serum, which reduced the atherogenic indices of the serum, such as cardiac risk ratio and atherogenic coefficient (
< 0.05). In addition, the cholesterol content and the fatty acid profile of breast meat, including palmitic acid, oleic acid, saturated fatty acid, and omega 9 levels, also declined with the increasing levels of TABP inclusion (
< 0.05). Moreover, the supplementation of TABP in diets caused a decline in the atherogenic and thrombogenicity indices and a rise in Δ-9 desaturase (16) index and hypocholesterolemic to the hypercholesterolemic ratio of meat (
< 0.05).
Synbiotic supplementation of up to 30 gm/kg TABP combined with 2 gm/kg probiotics in the chicken diet can potentially be utilized for the production of designer meat.

It also underlines the negative impact of poultry waste disposal on the environment. In Bangladesh, collection of poultry waste into bags and, subsequently, direct use as fertilizer in agricultural fields and aquaculture is common, while alternative disposal methods such as composting and biogas generation are now attracting commercial poultry producers. Direct use of poultry manure results in poor air and soil quality, environmental deterioration, detrimental effects on global health, climate change due to high levels of atmospheric ammonia, and the creation of significant amounts of greenhouse gases. Lack of knowledge and investment, as well as high demand for free land for composting, are important obstacles. PDE inhibitor Future research on precise waste characterization, improved understanding of poultry waste management, and increased efforts on developed waste disposal for a safe environment are therefore recommended. So, poultry waste, which is currently a burden for the environment, could be turned into a useful agricultural resource, which would be useful for the poultry industry.
The increase and prevalence of multidrug-resistant bacteria in livestock animals are serious public health concerns. This study aimed to identify the presence of the
TEM gene in extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing
isolated from rectal swabs of apparently healthy pigs in Malang District, East Java, Indonesia.
A total of 120 rectal swab samples were collected from the pigs. The rectal swabs were screened for the presence of
using standard microbiological identification procedures. The Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method identified multidrug-resistant
. Five different classes of antibiotics were used to identify multidrug-resistant isolates, including Ciprofloxacin, Trimethoprim, Tetracycline, Streptomycin, and Aztreonam. Multidrug-resistant
isolates were characterized for the presence of ESBL using double-disk synergy test methods. The presence of
TEM genes was determined using polymerase chain reaction methods.
The results of this study indicated that 107 (89.2%) out of 120 samples analyzed were positive for
isolates. A total of 32 (29.9%)
isolates were identified to be multidrug-resistant and further subjected to molecular testing. The molecular analysis revealed (5; 15.6%)
isolates to harbor the
TEM gene.
The results of this study revealed that pigs and products of pork origin must be considered a source of transmission of ESBL-producing
to public health important under the food chain.

This research aims to examine the effect of different fermentation times on the results of scanning electron microscope energy dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX), chemical, organoleptic, and microbiological quality of banana peel.
The design in this study used a completely randomized design (four treatments and four replications). The treatments in this study were different durations of fermentation of banana peels; T0 = no fermentation; T1 = 6 days; T2 = 12 days; and T3 = 18 days. The research parameters were chemical, organoleptic, microbiological quality, composition, and SEM-EDX images. Analysis of chemical, organoleptic, and microbiological quality data was done using analysis of variance, followed by Duncan's multiple range testing at the 5% significance level, while the elemental composition and SEM-EDX images were analyzed descriptively.
The results of the study showed that the length of fermentation had a significant effect (
< 0.05) on moisture content, ash, crude fiber, nitrogen-free extract, and all organoleptic quality variables of banana peels. Different fermentation durations had no effect (
> 0.05) on crude protein, ether extract, metabolic energy, total lactic acid bacteria, total bacteria, Gram positive or negative bacteria, and total fungi on banana peels. The analysis showed that the elemental composition of banana peels is C, Na
O, Cl, K
O, MgO, SO
, SiO
, and P
O
.
Eighteen days of fermentation improved the chemical quality, organoleptic, microbiological, elemental composition, and SEM-EDX image of fermented banana peel.
