Prolactin and Triiodothyronine Modulate Seasonal Variation in Brown Adipose Tissue in Djungarian Hamsters

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 7, Page 710-718, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Seasonal photoperiodic cycles regulate energy rheostasis in many animals. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and the liver are key metabolic organs that show remarkable plasticity in response to photoperiodic conditions. Prolactin (PRL) and thyroid hormones are endocrine signals that transmit neural‐derived photoperiodic time measurement encoding to ...

Aspects of the Genotype-Environment Interaction at the Japanese Quail (Coturnix-Coturnix Japonica)

Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
We analyzed the problems of genotype-environment interaction at three Coturnix Coturnix Japonica varieties. The environment where the experiment took place is perfect identically for all the activities, to ensure that the observed differences at the ...

Assessment of the feed additive consisting of lasalocid A sodium (Avatec® 150G) for turkeys, pheasants, guinea fowl, quails and partridges except laying birds thereof for the renewal of its authorisation (Zoetis Belgium SA)

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of lasalocid A sodium (Avatec® 150G) as a coccidiostat for turkeys, pheasants, guinea fowl, quails and partridges. The additive currently on the market complies with the existing conditions of authorisation.

Classification of the coefficients of variation of parameters evaluated in Japanese quail experiments

Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2014
The objective of this study was to design a classification range of the coefficients of variation (CV) of traits used in experiments with eggtype Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica). The journal Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia was systematically

Proteins of the Vitelline Membrane of Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) Eggs

Poultry Science, 1993
Proteins in the vitelline membrane of quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) eggs were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Ten major bands, molecular mass ranging from 14.5 to 285 kDa, can be clearly distinguished. Two bands corresponding to the molecular masses of 33 and 175 kDa were detected in the inner layer of the membrane and both were stained with periodic acid ...

Evidence of Small Changes in Daytime Body Temperature in Active Black‐Capped Chickadees in Response to Supplemental Food Availability

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We experimentally manipulated the presence of supplemental food at a bird feeder and monitored subcutaneous temperature (Tsub) in 15 overwintering black‐capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) during feeder visits to investigate whether food availability shapes daytime Tsub.

A Multispecies Systematic and Critical Review of Intranasal Administration in Veterinary Anaesthesia and Emergency Care: Promising Evidence and Overlooked Challenges

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This review evaluates the clinical potential and limitations of intranasal (IN) drug administration in veterinary anaesthesia and emergency care. IN delivery can provide clinically relevant sedation, analgesia and drug reversal, but its success is not universally reliable and is strongly influenced by species‐specific anatomy, formulation ...

Comparative Effects of Azadirachta indica‐Derived Silver Nanoparticles and Silver Nitrate on the Productive and Reproductive Performance of Japanese Quails

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Supplementation with 20 mg/kg Ag‐NPs significantly improved productive performance, egg quality, fertility, hatchability, and male sexual behaviour in Japanese quails compared to AgNO3, indicating superior efficacy of Ag‐NPs in enhancing reproductive efficiency and overall performance.
