    An Update on Canine Duodenal Disorders
    (2019-11) Saravanan, Mani; TANUVAS
    Duodenal disorders are difficult to identify clinically because of the non-specific symptoms. They may or may not be identifiable through routine radiographic, ultrasonographic, or laboratory evaluation methods, because many diseases of duodenum primarily involve the mucosal surface. Duodenal ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) are the duodenal disorders. Duodenoscopy is an efficient way of identifying the abnormalities of mucosal irregularities, distortion, ulceration, neoplasia, and inflammation, and it is also useful for obtaining mucosal biopsy and duodenal juice for routine histopathological and bacteriological studies. This paper will provide more detail about the advanced diagnostic methods and therapeutic measures for various duodenal disorders.

    EQUIPMENT IN PORK PROCESSING
    (TANUVAS, 2014) Narendra Babu, R; TANUVAS
    A pig slaughterhouse with larger throughput mostly uses the line-slaughter system. “Line slaughter” includes hoisting the carcass on the rails at bleeding and subsequent slaughtering and dressing procedures are carried out with the carcass suspended on and moving along the overhead rail (or line). This method is in contrast to the booth-slaughter system common in the past and low throughput slaughter houses. In the booth system, slaughter spaces are divided into many spots ("booths"), which allow for the simultaneous slaughtering of a certain number of animals ("batch"). A team of men attends each slaughtering spot.
