    DIAGNOSIS AND THERAPEUTIC MANAGEMENT OF BACTERIAL ENTERITIS IN CALVES
    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY, ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCES UNIVERSITY (KVAFSU), BIDAR, 2020-08) NEELESH; RAVINDRA, B. G
    Diarrhoea in the farm animals, especially in calves is one of the challenging clinical signs noticed in the dairy farm and is leading to economic loss to the dairy farmers. The future endeavour of successful dairy farming depends on the better management of calves. Therefore, the present study was envisaged to evaluate the prevalence, diagnosis and therapeutic management of bacterial enteritis in calves. A total of ten dairy farms in Bidar district were selected and visited to collect faecal samples and blood samples from diarrhoeic calves. To confirm, the faecal samples (N=100) were subjected to isolation and identification of underlying cause. The results showed that E. coli and Salmonella spp. as predominant bacteria in this area. In the prevalence study the early age group calves (0-1 month) were highly susceptible to both E. coli and Salmonella spp. and as age progresses the susceptibility reduces. Female calves were found to be more susceptible to the male counter parts. On haemato-biochemical examination there was significant difference (≥0.05%) in total leucocyte count, lymphocyte count, monocyte count and granulocyte count noticed when compared to healthy calves suggesting acute bacterial enteritis. Whereas, significant increase in erythrocyte count and packed cell volume may indicates moderate dehydration. Hypoglycaemia was observed in prevalence group when compared to healthy control group and were found to be within normal physiological limits. Therapeutic efficacy study against bacterial enteritis revealed that both the antibiotics (Group-I: Ceftiofur and Group-II: Sulphadiazine + trimethoprim) with common supportive therapy selected in the present study were found to be equally effective against bacterial enteritis exhibiting clinical recovery within 96 hrs of treatment in both the groups

    An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of yeast cell wall extract (YCWE) on growth performance, organ weights, immune status, serum biochemical and histopathological changes in broilers fed on diets containing 0 ppm and 0.5 ppm T-2 toxin. A total of 240 one-day old commercial male broiler chicks were divided at random into 4 dietary treatment groups each having 5 replicates of 12 chicks each; T1 (control), T2 (basal diet + 0.1 % YCWE), T3 (basal diet + 0.5 ppm T-2 toxin) and T4 (basal diet + 0.5 ppm T 2 toxin + 0.1 % YCWE). Supplementation of 0.1 % YCWE in basal diet (T2) had no adverse effects. Feeding diet contaminated with 0.5 ppm T-2 toxin caused significant reduction in bodyweight and poor FCR. The serum levels of total protein, albumin, cholesterol, anti body titres against NDV and IBDV were significantly reduced whereas, there was a significant increase in the serum levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), serum glutamic pyruvic transamin

    STUDY ON THE EVALUATION OF DIAGNOSTIC METHODS OF ANIMAL RABIES USING BRAIN TISSUES COLLECTED BY DIFFERENT APPROACHES
    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY, ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCES UNIVERSITY, BIDAR, 2020-08) MOHAMED GHOUSE, H; Dr. M. L. SATYANARAYANA
    A total of 51 brain Samples (cerebellum and brain stem) were collected from rabies suspected animals that were received for rabies diagnosis at Department of veterinary pathology, Veterinary college, Bangalore. Brain samples collected by foramen magnum approach using simple instruments viz., Artificial Insemination (AI) sheath and also collected from conventional skull open method. The LFA, DFA and dRIT tests were conducted and comparative evaluation of all three tests was done on samples collected from both the methods. Out of 51 samples tested, 41 were positive and 10 were negative for rabies by LFA, DFA and dRIT tests. There was 100 per cent correlation between the LFA, DFA and

    STUDIES ON GLASS IONOMER CEMENT AND NANO-HYBRID RESIN COMPOSITE AS TREATMENT FOR DENTAL CARIES IN DOGS
    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY, ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCES UNIVERSITY, BIDAR, 2020-01) KOUSHIEK YADAV S P; Dr. K. M. SRINIVASA MURTHY
    The incidence of dental caries in dogs presented to Veterinary College Hospital, Bangalore was studied for a period of one year. Dental caries was more common in Nondescript, followed by Pomeranian, Labrador, Beagle, Rottweiler, Dalmatian and Boxer. The incidence was more in dogs above ten years age. Male dogs were more affected than female dogs. Most common cause of dental caries was accumulation of dental calculus on the tooth, which harbors the bacteria and releases acids to demineralize the enamel and dentine. Dental caries was treated by glass ionomer cement and nano hybrid resin composite restorations in six clinical cases of dogs in each group respectively. The postoperative assessment of clinical, hematological and biochemical showed insignificant variations. The gross changes like color match, marginal integrity, surface texture, anatomical contour and gross fractures in both groups showed no changes where two dogs in Group Ishowed the restoration was completely missing on 15th and 45th day respectively. The postoperative radiographs of both restoration showed radiopaque sealant in the cavities of affected tooth indicates the sealant was intact. Key words: Dogs, Dental caries, Glass iono
