    Herbal Hepatoprotectants and Their Applications
    (2012-06) Saravanan, S.; Dinakaran, A. Manicavasaka; Arulkumar, T.; Malmarugan, S.; TANUVAS
    Herbal plants or botanical medicines have been used traditionally by herbalists worldwide for the prevention and treatment of liver diseases. in the absence of reliable liver-protective drugs in modern medicine, a large number of medicinal preparations are recommended for the treatment of liver disorders to offer significant relief. Considerable studies have been carried out on ethno medicinal plants; however, only few medicinal plants have attracted the interest of scientists, to investigate them has hepatoprotectives. Clinical research in this century has confirmed the efficacy of several plants in the treatment of liver disease.

    Economic Significance of Chicken Coccidiosis - An Overview
    (Poultry Punch, 2012-11) Saravanan, S.; Palanivel, K.M.; Rishikesavan, R.; Doraisamy, K.A.; TANUVAS
    Coccidiosis, which is caused by obligate, intracellular, protozoan parasites of the genus Eimeria, is one of the major problems for poultry industry and has been known for over 130 years. The Indian poultry sector has become a major contributor to the national economy as a result of the revolutionary and scientific approaches in avian health care management.

    Thermal Stress in Poultry
    (2014-07) Sathyabama, T.; Bhuvana, M.; Ravi, R.; TANUVAS
    The ideal solution to alleviate heat stress is to construct and rear the birds in environmentally controlled houses wherein all parameters can be monitored which may not be feasible to all farmers. In all developing countries, rapid mechanized changes in poultry production lead to better performance and higher productivity.

    Current Trends in the Immunization against Chicken Coccidiosis : An Overview
    (2010-05) Saravanan, S.; Selvaraju, G.; Geetha, M.; Dinakaran, A. Manicavasaka; Kannan, D.; TANUVAS
    Coccidiosis, which is caused by obligate, intracellular, protozoan parasites belonging to several species of the genus Eimeria, is a major problem for the poultry industry. It is the major parasite disease of poultry, with substantial economic burden estimated to cost the industry more than $ 800 million in annual losses worldwide. These estimates include the costs of prophylactic in-feed medication for broilers and broiler breeders, alternative treatments, and losses due to mortality, morbidity, impaired growth rate, temporary reduction of egg production in layers and poor feed conversion of chickens that survive outbreaks.

    Virus-Like Particles (VLPS) - Applications In Veterinary Medicine
    (2010-09) Saravanan, S.; Dinakaran, A. Manicavasaka; Kannan, D.; Selvaraju, G.; Geetha, M.; Ganesan, P.I.; TANUVAS
    Vaccines against viral disease have traditionally relied on attenuated virus strains or inactivation of infectious virus. Subunit vaccines based on recombinant proteins can suffer from poor immunogenicity owing to incorrect folding of the target protein or poor presentation to the immune system. A specific class of viral subunit vaccine that mimics the overall structure of virus particles and thus preserves the native antigenic conformation of the immunogenic proteins. are called virus-like particles (VLPs) which have been produced for a wide range of taxonomically and structurally distinct viruses, and have unique advantages in terms of safety and immunogenlcity over previous approaches.
