Effects of Senna occidentalis on chick bursa of Fabricius

Avian Pathology, 2003
Senna occidentalis (L) Link (formerly called Cassia occidentalis) is a toxic leguminous plant found ubiquitously as a contaminant of crops. All parts of the plant are toxic, but most of the S. occidentalis toxicity is found in the seeds. S. occidentalis has been shown to be toxic to several animal species, causing degenerative lesions mainly in muscles.

Muscle degeneration in chicks caused bySenna occidentalisseeds

Avian Pathology, 1998
Acute intoxication with Senna occidentalis seeds was studied in chicks. Seven-day-old chicks were fed ground dried seeds of this plant mixed with regular chicken ration at a concentration of 4% by weight for 15 days. Feed intake and body weight were markedly affected and a high level of lethality was observed.

The Effects of Low Doses of Senna occidentalis Seeds on Broiler Chickens

Veterinary Research Communications, 2003
The effects of 0.5%, 0.3% and 0.1% w/w concentrations of Senna occidentalis (So) seed mixed with commercial ration were studied in 18 groups of 32 broiler chicks each, from 1 day to 49 days of age. Three groups were fed one of the rations throughout their lives (TL).

Effect of Senna occidentalis Seeds on Immunity in Broiler Chickens

Journal of Veterinary Medicine Series A, 2007
SummaryThis study investigated possible immunotoxic effects of Senna occidentalis (So) seeds incorporated in broiler chicken rations at different concentrations (0.0%, 0.25%, 0.50% and 0.75%), for 28 or 42 days. We evaluated innate immune function (macrophage activities of spreading, phagocytosis, peroxide and nitric oxide production) and acquired ...

Coffee Senna (Senna occidentalis) poisoning in cattle in Brazil.

Veterinary and human toxicology, 1995
Four 4-5-y-old cows out of a group of 20 developed a toxic myopathy approximately 10 d after being started on a ration contaminated with 21.5% Senna occidentalis beans. Clinical signs included progressive muscle weakness, incoordination of hindlimbs, reluctance to move, dragging of the tip of the hooves of the hindlimbs, and sternal and lateral ...

Karyotype, meiotic behavior and pollen features of Senna occidentalis

Biologia, 2010
Meiotic behavior, pollen morphology, interphasic nucleus pattern and karyotype description for Senna occidentalis (Caesalpinioideae — Fabaceae) are presented. The species had non-reticulate interphasic nucleus and homogeneous chromosome condensing with minute distal late-condensing portions in prometaphase.

Intoxication by Senna occidentalis seeds in pregnant goats: Prenatal and postnatal evaluation

Experimental and Toxicologic Pathology, 2011
Senna occidentalis is a weed toxic to different animal species. Very little is known about the effects of prolonged exposure to low doses of S. occidentalis on developmental toxicology. Thus, the present study proposes an approach to evaluate the perinatal toxicity of S. occidentalis seeds in goats. Twenty-one pregnant goats were fed rations containing

Muscle atrophy induced in broiler chicks by parts of Senna occidentalis seeds

Veterinary Research Communications, 1998
Senna occidentalis (formerly Cassia occidentalis) is a common contaminant of agricultural commodities. It is toxic to cattle and poultry, reportedly being responsible for skeletal myodegeneration in these animals. All parts of the plant present toxicity, but the seeds are the most toxic.
