Anand Agricultural University, Anand

Anand Agricultural University (AAU) was established in 2004 at Anand with the support of the Government of Gujarat, Act No.(Guj 5 of 2004) dated April 29, 2004. Caved out of the erstwhile Gujarat Agricultural University (GAU), the dream institution of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Dr. K. M. Munshi, the AAU was set up to provide support to the farming community in three facets namely education, research and extension activities in Agriculture, Horticulture Engineering, product Processing and Home Science. At present there seven Colleges, seventeen Research Centers and six Extension Education Institute working in nine districts of Gujarat namely Ahmedabad, Anand, Dahod, Kheda, Panchmahal, Vadodara, Mahisagar, Botad and Chhotaudepur AAU's activities have expanded to span newer commodity sectors such as soil health card, bio-diesel, medicinal plants apart from the mandatory ones like rice, maize, tobacco, vegetable crops, fruit crops, forage crops, animal breeding, nutrition and dairy products etc. the core of AAU's operating philosophy however, continues to create the partnership between the rural people and committed academic as the basic for sustainable rural development. In pursuing its various programmes AAU's overall mission is to promote sustainable growth and economic independence in rural society.

    COMPARATIVE STUDIES ON SIMPLE AND COMPRESSION BONE PLATING OF INDUCED: METACARPAL FRACTURE IN CLAVES
    (AAU, Anand, 1987) PARSANIA, RATILAL R.; PATEL, M. R.
    The present work was carried out on 36 calves of 12 to 18 months in age. The mid-shaft, right metacarpal transverse fractures were created with a wire-saw and were immobilized by simple plating in one group(18 animals) and by compression plating with a locally fabricated compression device in another group (18 animals). The animals were sacrificed on day 15(12 animals), on day 30 (12 animals) and on day 60 (12 animals) post-operatively. The comparative evaluation of the fracture healing was made by clinical observations, plan radiography, cadaver angiography, histomorphology and histochemistry including fluorescent microscopy after tetracycline labelling. The paraffin sections for microscopic examination were cut from decalcified callus, while the frozen, cryostat sections were cut from undecalcified callus. The above sections were stained by Haematoxilin and Eosin (H & E), Hart’s stain, Alcian blue (1.0 pH) -PAS, Alcian blue (2.5 pH)-PAS. While for Von Kossa method and for fluorescent microscopy, only cryostat sections of undecalcified tissues were used.
