Here’s my big brother. Doesn’t he look good? To do as you suggest would be out of the question. Tom put Mary’s suggestion down on his to-do list. What he likes best is being around his friends. Anticipating a cold winter, we bought a bigger stove. Never do that again or I won’t be your friend! What is your favorite toy to play with or what toy do you wish you had? What are you excited about that’s going to happen soon? Thank you for finishing the last slice of pizza!..... ReadMore -

Tumor-specific Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte (CTL) can be activated in vivo by vaccination with Dendritic Cells (DCs), which is crucial for tumor control. Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) is mainly expressed on the surface of tumor cells and Antigen-Presenting Cells (APCs) in various solid malignancies, implying an ideal choice for cancer immunotherapy and vaccine development. We recently reported a novel DC vaccination (PDL1-Vax) to actively induce anti-PD-L1 antibody and T cell responses capable of inhibiting PD-L1+ tumor growth. In this study, we further tested whether vaccinations with DCs, loaded with another PD-L1 immunogen (PDL1-GMCSF), are also able to induce certain anti-PD-L1 immune responses. A synthetic vaccine composing the extracellular domain of PD-L1 linked to a T helper epitope sequence and a human GM-CSF is generated to improv..... ReadMore

A Texel ram was mated to Suffolk ewes to evaluate how using a terminal sire breed would alter carcass and muscle composition compared to traditional breeds, Suffolk and Southdown. Southdown (SD), Suffolk (SU) or SU x Texel (TX) lambs (n = 21) were weaned and finished on mixed annual pastures to a final live weight of 59 kg. Lambs were slaughtered at a similar body weight and evaluated for differences in performance, carcass composition, fatty acid composition, myostatin, and tenderness. Lamb performance was similar between breeds during post-weaning phase but lower (P < 0.05) for TX than SD or SU during the preweaning phase. Texel- sired lambs had carcasses with a higher (P < 0.05) dressing percentage, hot carcass weight, ribeye area and quality grade. Southdown lambs had carcasses with higher (P < 0.05) yield gr.....

Rapid assessment of carcass composition is an important factor for research programs aimed at altering animal growth and body composition. Two experiments were conducted to validate the use of Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) for prediction of fat content in lamb carcasses or primals. In experiment 1, carcasses (n = 42) from Suffolk whether lambs were scanned hot (at the end of slaughter) or cold (after chilling for 24 h) to determine how carcass temperature influenced DXA fat estimates of carcass lipid percentage or mass. In experiment 2, carcasses (n = 21) from Suffolk, Southdown or Texel sired lambs were DXA scanned as whole carcasses, four primal cuts (shoulder, rack, loin, leg), or individual primal cut to determine which primal cut best predicted fat cont.....

The current study was conducted at Haramaya University Dairy laboratory with the main objective of investigating how heat treatment affects whey proteins and rennetability property of camel milk for cheese making. Completely randomized design (CRD) was used by evaluating effect temperature (650C/30min,720C/30 sec, 750C/5 min, 850C/5 min and 900C/5 min).Raw milk used for reference. Similar experimental setup was also used for cow milk.. Heat treatment was done in thermostatically controlled water bath. The chemical composition of milk analysed using milkoscan, whey protein denaturation analysis was done using gel electrophoresis. Heat treatment have no significant effect (P>0.05) on gross chemical content of camel and cow milk. In camel milk α-lactalbumin (α-La)showed less denaturation while Camel serum albumin denatured at higher heat t..... ReadMore

Common carp is a traditional freshwater fish species and has been culturing in several aquaculture systems in Northern Vietnam. This species was commonly infected with variety of parasites, the low efficacy of common drugs and chemical treatment is one of major barrier for enhance the Common carp production. This study was conducted to examine the safety and treatment efficacy of Dermo-gard, which contained 56.9% of Ethylenediamine Dihydroiodide, on parasites infected common carp, including Metacecaria of Centrocestus formosanus, Myxobolus sp. (internal prasite), Dactylogyrus sp. and Lernaea cyprinacea (external prasites) by immersion and oral methods. The results showed that Dermo-gard at dose of 0.2g /L for 2-4 hours by immersion and at dose of 0.2-0.4 g/kg of feed for 7 days by oral are safe for fry and fingerling common carp. The imme.....

Colostrum, life’s first food of mammals, is a complex mixture of nutrients secreted by mother’s mammary glands during the first few days of lactation and its impact on the health of the newborn has been known for a long time [1]. Bovine colostrums (BC), the “early” milk produced by cows during the first several days post-parturition, has an immunological and nutrient profile composition significantly different from “mature” milk [2]. In addition to macronutrients found in milk such as protein, fat, carbohydrate, and micronutrients including vitamins and minerals, BC contain growth factors, antimicrobial compounds, oligosaccharides, and immune-regulating constituents. Premature aging, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular diseases are affected by immune system disorders [3]. Consumption of bovine colostrum’s glycoproteins may be a..... ReadMore

The increasing pressure of reducing the use of antibiotics as antimicrobial growth promoters for animals due to harmful residual toxicity effects of drugs observed in the food chain calls for alternative solutions to sustain the efficiency of current livestock production [2,3]. Among the potential alternatives is essential oil which has been found to be loaded with several bioactive chemicals, less toxic and free from residues [4]. According to [5], essential oils are complex mixtures of volatile compounds produced by living organisms and isolated by physical means only (pressing and distillation) from the whole plant or plant part of known taxonomic origin. The composition of essential oil in plants depends on plant species and its age, harvesting periods, methods of processing, geographical location and soil types [6-8]. Scientific repo..... ReadMore

Concepts of Dairy & Veterinary Sciences
Concepts of Dairy & Veterinary Sciences (CDVS) is an international journal established for the harvesting of animal milk – mostly from cows or goats, but also from buffaloes, sheep, horses or camels – for human consumption. A dairy is typically located on a dedicated dairy farm or in a section of a multi-purpose farm that is concerned with the harvesting of milk. Dairy Research is the field that deals with the Dairy and animal breeding, Physiology, Cell biology and endocrinology of lactation, animal science, milk production and composition, Biotechnology and food technology, properties of milk proteins and other components, dairy products such as cheese, fermented milks and spreads, relevant studies in bacteriology, enzymology and immunology, the use of milk products in other foods, and the development of methods related to Dairy Science. Dairy and Veterinary Science is a quarterly, open access, peer-reviewed journal aims to publish submissions/articles on current concepts in the field of veterinary, animal studies including animal nutrition, veterinary science physiology, veterinary medicine and behaviour, diagnosis, treatment and prevention among animal diseases including wild, domestic and avian, animal rehabilitation, animal therapy, animal care, animal physiotherapy, arthrography, Bovine Milk, Dairy Cows, Dairy Diseases, Dairy Farm, Health and Dairy Products, Homogenized Milk, Milk Born Diseases, Pasteurization, Skimmed Milk related to dairy science, etc.
