Pathogenetical significance of porencephalic lesions associated with intracerebral inoculation of sheep with the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent [PDF]
Decreased rates of transmission of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) to sheep have been attributed to some polymorphisms of the prion protein (PrP) and to a ‘species barrier’ on interspecies experiments.

Molecular adaptation of ruminal epithelia to highly fermentable diets [PDF]
Feeding highly fermentable diets to ruminants is one strategy to increase energy intake. The increase in short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production and reduced ruminal pH associated with highly fermentable diets imposes a challenge to the metabolism and ...

Net Metabolism of Amino Acids by Portal-drained Viscera and Liver of Growing Sheep
採食および絶食時の成長中めん羊(30~34週齢,平均体重22.1kg)の門脈系内臓と肝臓における正味のアミノ酸代謝量を血漿流量と静-動脈濃度差の測定により求め,同様に求めた成めん羊(13ヵ月齢,平均体重49.2kg)の結果と比較した.アルファルファヘイキューブを1日当り1,000g(維持量の1.5~2.0倍)を摂取した成長中めん羊では,門脈系内臓からの正味のアミノ酸放出量の日内変動パターンに門脈血漿流量の変動パターンとの相関が認められたのに対して,1日当り1,100g(ほぼ維持量)を摂取した成めん羊ではそのような相関は観察されなかった.しかし,メタボリックボディサイズ(W0.75)当りに換算した門脈系内臓における正味の一日アミノ酸代謝量は,その質および量ともに両群間にほとんど差異は認められず ...

Digestion, rumen fermentation and circulating concentrations of insulin, growth hormone and IGF-1 in steers fed diets based on different proportions of maize silage and grass silage [PDF]
Replacing grass silage with maize silage results in a fundamental change in the ratio of structural to non-structural carbohydrates with commensurate changes in rumen fermentation patterns and nutrient utilisation.

Effects of fermentable starch and straw-enriched housing on energy partitioning of growing pigs [PDF]
Both dietary fermentable carbohydrates and the availability of straw bedding potentially affect activity patterns and energy utilisation in pigs. The present study aimed to investigate the combined effects of straw bedding and fermentable carbohydrates ...

Modern management of pyogenic hepatic abscess: a case series and review of the literature [PDF]
Background Pyogenic hepatic abscesses are relatively rare, though untreated are uniformly fatal. A recent paradigm shift in the management of liver abscesses, facilitated by advances in diagnostic and interventional radiology, has decreased mortality ...
