Experimental Gizzard Erosions in Specific-Pathogen-Free Chicks by Serotype 1 Group I Avian Adenoviruses from Broilers

Avian Diseases, 2002
The pathogenicity of serotype 1 group I avian adenovirus (GIAAV) strains isolated from gizzard erosions for 1-wk-old specific-pathogen-free (SPF) chickens was investigated. In Experiment 1, SPF chickens inoculated orally with a serotype 1 strain (Tokushima2000/GE) of GIAAV isolated from gizzard erosion in broilers were euthanatized and necropsied from ...

Dissolution of copper, tin, and iron from sintered tungsten–bronze spheres in a simulated avian gizzard, and an assessment of their potential toxicity to birds

Science of The Total Environment, 2008
The rates of dissolution of copper, tin, and iron from sintered tungsten-bronze spheres (51.1%W, 44.4%Cu, 3.9%Sn, 0.6%Fe, by mass) were measured in an in vitro simulated avian gizzard at pH 2.0, and 42C. Most of the spheres had disintegrated completely to a fine powder by day 14.

An abundant chick gizzard integrin is the avian α1β1 integrin heterodimer and functions as a divalent cation-dependent collagen IV receptor

Experimental Cell Research, 1991
The alpha-subunit of an abundant chick gizzard integrin was isolated (T. Kelly, L. Molony, and K. Burridge, 1987, J. Biol. Chem. 262, 17,189-17,199) and fragmented by proteolytic digestion. The N-terminal sequences of the intact polypeptide and of several internal peptides were determined and were found to be highly homologous to the mammalian integrin

The gizzard morphology of an avian herbivore: the domestic goose, Anser anser

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1999
The gizzard of the herbivorous domestic goose, Anser anser , was investigated in order to understand how it can break down food such as grass. The gizzard consists of two thick opposing muscles that are joined on its dorsal and ventral surface by large tendons.

Interaction of nerve-medited excitation and inhibition of single smooth muscle cells of the avian gizzard

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1970
Abstract 1. 1. Electrical responses of the smooth muscle cells of the chick and pigeon gizzard have been recorded with intracellular micro-electrodes. 2. 2. Transmural stimulation frequently evoked an excitatory junction potential (E.J.P.) followed by an inhibitory junction potential (I.J.P.).

Trace metal depositional patterns from an open pit mining activity as revealed by archived avian gizzard contents

Science of The Total Environment, 2011
Archived samples of blue grouse (Dendragapus obscurus) gizzard contents, inclusive of grit, collected yearly between 1959 and 1970 were analyzed for cadmium, lead, zinc, and copper content. Approximately halfway through the 12-year sampling period, an open-pit copper mine began activities, then ceased operations 2 years later. Thus the archived samples

Phenotypic flexibility of the avian gizzard: rapid, reversible and repeated changes of organ size in response to changes in dietary fibre content

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1999
ABSTRACT Evolutionary biology presumes that organ capacities match their natural loads. Therefore, in fluctuating conditions, organ systems are expected to show a reversible, repeatable and rapid phenotypic response that is directional and scaled.
