ThesisItem Open Access EVALUATION OF IMMUNE RESPONSE BY BLOOD AND MILK LEUCOCYTES DURING PERIPARTUM PERIOD OF CROSSBRED COWS(DEPARTMENT OF VETERINARY PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY COLLEGE OF VETERINARY SCIENCE AND ANIMAL HUSBANDRY ANAND AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY ANAND, 2018) Dr. A. M. Pande; JOSHI KRUPA RAJENDRAKUMARSix crossbred cows (Holstein Friesian × Kankrej) were investigated in their advance stage of gestation period for Hematological parameter, Phagocytic Activity (PA) of Blood and Milk, Mitogen Con A and LPS induced Lymphocytic Proliferation Response (LPR) of Blood and Milk, SCC, Fat, Protein, SNF, Lactose and Hormones. Blood was collected on days -30, -15, -7 and -3 before calving, on the day of calving and on days 3, 7, 15 and 30 after calving while milk collected on the day of calving and 3, 7, 15, 30 day after calving.ThesisItem Open Access STUDY ON REPRODUCTIVE MICROBIOTA IN CYCLIC, ACYCLIC AND ENDOMETRITIC CROSSBRED CATTLE(DEPT OF ANIMAL REPRODUCTION GYNAECOLOGY & OBSTETRICS COLLEGE OF VETERINARY SCIENCE & ANIMAL HUSBANDRY ANAND AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY ANAND, 2018) PATEL CHIRAG I.; Dr. A.J. DhamiThis study was carried out on vaginal secretions/aspirates of infertile (acyclic and endometritic) crossbred cows from field and healthy cyclic as well as pregnant crossbred cows of LRS, AAU, Anand with the objectives (i) to identify the vaginal microorganisms based on routine cultural and culture-independent (metagenomics) methods, (ii) to monitor plasma progesterone, estrogen, total protein, total cholesterol, calcium and inorganic phosphorus profile, and (iii) to find out the association of vaginal metabiota with circulatory levels of gonadal steroids, if any. The work was carried out on total 36 crossbred cows covering six each regular cyclic (proestrus, estrus, metestrus, diestrus), acyclic, endometritic and 3, 6 and 9 months pregnant animals.ThesisItem Open Access STUDY ON CERTAIN SUMMER MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ON PERFORMANCE OF CROSSBRED CALVES(Department of Livestock Production Management College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry Anand Agricultural University Anand, 2018) Ajaykumar Laljibhai Nayak; Dr. M.

EX. of H.V., high dose), XI (Biherbal-BIH. AQ. EX., 1:1, low dose), XII (BIH. AQ. EX., 1:1, high dose), XIII (BIH. AL. EX., 1:1, low dose) and XIV (BIH. AL. EX., 1:1, high dose). All groups had six rats each. Group I had eight rats. All the rats were numbered group wise and individually. Group II was given 0.5% sodium bicarbonate. Urolithiasis was induced in group I and III to XIV animals using 0.75 % (v/v) ethylene glycol and 2% (w/v) ammonium chloride along with drinking water as stone inducing agent for 28 days.
