First Detection and Molecular Identification of Entamoeba in Yaks from China. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
peer reviewed[en] BACKGROUND: Yak, a predominant livestock of plateau areas, is known as a host to many parasites. And the genus Entamoeba, the third-common cause of the mortality worldwide from parasitic diseases, was discovered in yaks once.

Hematologic Observations on the Yak

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1975
The uak has two hemoglobins sharing a common globin chain. Hb slow appears unique to the yak among the ruminants studied. It is not known if Hb slow is important in high altitude adaptation, but physilogic rather than hematolgoic adjustments may be more important agter acute blood loss, as 2,3-DPG remains nit and no disproportionate hemolgoin ...

House feeding pattern increased male yak fertility by improving gut microbiota and serum metabolites

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Yaks usually live in an extremely harsh natural environment resulting in low reproductive performance, so the production of yak cannot meet local demand in China.

Bluetongue in Captive Yaks

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
To the Editor: In August 2006, several northern European countries including Belgium reported cases of bluetongue (BT) (1). This noncontagious, arthropod-borne animal disease is caused by Bluetongue virus (BTV), genus Orbivirus, family Reoviridae. The genome of BTV consists of 10 segments of double-stranded RNA; 24 serotypes have been reported (2 ...

Seasonal heat production and energy balance of grazing yaks on the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau

open access: yes, 2014
A study was conducted to measure the energy balance of free-ranging yak during the four annual seasons in order to elucidate the factors constraining energy utilization by grazing yak. The heat production (HP, kJ/day) of grazing non-lactating female yaks

A Mechanical Planar Chiral Rotaxane Induces Single‐Handed Helicity in a Twisted Perylene Diimide

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A mechanical planar chiral rotaxane (Rmp) is used to induce single‐handed helical chirality (M) in a perylene diimide chromophore, resulting in persistent circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarised luminescence (CPL). ABSTRACT The twisting of chromophores such as perylene diimides (PDIs) into helical structures affords chiroptical properties from
