ThesisItem Open Access Evaluation of Ketamine and Its Combination with Diazepam and Lorazepam in Caprin Surgery(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Shailendra Kumar Singh; P.N. sahay1. Ketamine alone @ 12 mg/kg body wt. induced optimal sedation but very poor analgesia and muscle relaxation in a limited area of the body. 2.Ketamine + diazepam in atropinized goats produced satisfactory sedation, adequate muscle relaxation and optimal analgesia, with smooth induction.. 3.There was abolition of superficial and deep cutaneous reflexes over a wider region of the body permitting surgery of different magnitudes with diazepam ketamine. 4.With Ketamine and lorazepam combination, there was rough induction, unsatisfactory muscle relaxation and analgesia even though sedation was moderate. 5. Hyperglycaemia of varying magnitude was a consistent feature of ketamine anaesthesia and its combination with diazepam and lorazepam. 6.BUN, ALT and AST levels exhibited alterations within the normal physiological limits and suggested non-toxic effect of the anaesthetic regimens on kidney, liver and heart. 7.Atropinization quality of did not seemed to be affecting anaesthesia, even though it countered side effects of ketamine effectively. 8.There was evidence to suggest that surgery stress conditions may be performed with diazepam combination in atropinized goats.ThesisItem Open Access Studies on Mite Infection in Dog and Its Control with Special Reference to Demodicosis(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Manoj Kumar Jha; Dr.A.R.DebThe sarcoptes scabiei infestation was observed more 41 (19.09%) whereas Demodex canis was less 21(6.70%) different breeds of dogs. The mite infestation was recorded highest (27.36) in 6-12 months of age group as compared to other age groups. The males were more susceptible (21.83%) to the mites infestation than females (17.26%). Further study revealed that infestation was more common during winter season (22.95%) as compared to other seasons. Dogs reared under good management condition, the occurrence of infestation was less (15.38%). The localised infection of demodicosis was observed more (4.15%) than generalized condition (2.55%). Hematological study in experimentally infected pups revealed lower value of hemoglobin concentration and packed cell volume whereas differential leucocyte count showed lymphocytosis and eosinophilia. The biochemical profiles study indicated the increase in the value of globulin where as decrease in cholesterol, total lipid and albumin was observed.ThesisItem Open Access Studies on Utilization of the Mixture of Rice (Oryza sativa) And Marua (Eleusine Coracana) (80 20) Fermented Waste in Pig Grower Ration(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1998) Roseline Pushpa Tirkey; R.Bhakt1.Differences in average body weight, daily weight gain, and various body measurements (height, length and girth) of the piglets fed 0, 10, 20 and 30 % rice and maruafermented waste (80: 20) replacing 0, 33.33, 66.66 and 100 % wheat bran in their concentrate diet was found to be non-significant. 2. There was non-significant difference in feed efficiencies of piglets of various groups fed diets containing 0, 10, 20 and 30 % rice and marua fermented waste. 3. The cost involved on one kg gain in weight was significantly lower in piglets reared on diet containing 30 % rice and marua fermented waste than in piglets reared without rice and marua fermented waste but did not differ significantly to diet containing 10 or 20 % fermented wastes. Thus, wheat bran may be replaced up to 100% in the diet of growing piglets economically and without any harmful effect.ThesisItem Open Access Bacteriological Quality of Chevon with special reference to Staphylococcus aureus(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1998) Chandreshwar Prasad; Rajendra YadavIn Asian countries, goats are exclusively considered as meat animals. The preference for goat meat (chevon) is probably related to certain special features including distinctive flavour, which make it quite different from mutton. Visceral fat deposition is characteristics of goat. This in turn, affects the succulence and tenderness of chevon. Commercial organizations engaged in meat processing must maintain satisfactory microbiological standards of their products to ensure consumer safety and protect from spoilage. Such quality control and food safety programme in India appear to be in their infancy. In order to assess the quality of food for consumer's safety it is essential to examine it for bacteria responsible food poisoning and also food spoilage organisms. Therefore, the present study was undertaken with the objective to assess the hygienic quality and presence of food borne pathogens i.e. Staphylococcus aureus, Altogether 40 samples of chevon from two different sources of Ranchi town i.e. meat booths, Kanke and Bahu bazaar were analyzed. for bacteriological quality. The results of bacteriological examination has been expressed in log 10 scale. Total viable count in the samples of chevon obtained from meat booths, Kanke ranged from 6.3979 to 7.1847 with an average of 6.8463/g. All the samples were positive for coliform and count varied from 4.9031 to 5.6721 with an average of 5.4658/g.ThesisItem Open Access Bacteriological Quality of Fishes Reared in Pig and Cattle Manure fed Pounds(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1998) Niraj Kumar Verma; Dr. K.G. NarayanThe present work was undertaken to study bacteriological quality of fishes reared in pig and cattle manure fed ponds with the following objectives: 1. To determine physico-chemical changes in water samples after application of pig and cattle manure separately in two different ponds. 2. To determine the growth of fishes under above two different managmental conditions. 3. To determine total bacterial and coliform loads of water, soil (sediments) and fishes under above two managemental conditions. 4. To study carrier status of Salmonella typhimurium in fishes after experimental exposure. The entire work was completed in two phases. In phase-I, the experiment was performed outside the laboratory. in two similar seasonal ponds at Boreya, Kanke, Ranchi. In this phase, the physico-chemical characters of water and growth of fishes were determined.ThesisItem Open Access Some Aspect of Mastitis in Buffaloes(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1987) Praveen kumar; Dr. A.K.SinhaHazarduous effect of mastitis on the socio-economic status of the farmers through the loss of milk and health of the animals leading to their culling and sacrifice is well established. With a view to asses the incidence and prevalence of mastitis in buffaloes in and around Ranchi in different farms with respect of daily milk yield, month of lactation, parity, types of infection and quarterwise infection by different indirect tests, the present investigation work was undertaken. To study these aspects of mastitis in buffaloes one organised farm, three unorganised farms and several private owners comprising the mixed group in and around Ranchi were taken for this study. Out of 259 milch animals 112 buffaloes were examined for incidence and prevalence of mastitis by indirect tests viz.trypsin inhibitor test, modified California mastitis test and bromothymol blue indicator card test and clinical observations were carried out to detect clinical, subclinical and chronic mastitis in these animals. To find out the causative organisms of mastitis and for their cure; culture, isolation, identification, sensitivity to different drugs, biological test for confirmations and drug trials for their treatment with different drugs were carried out in 29 buffaloes who were found positive for mastitis. Comparison of indirect tests for its suitability in detecting mastitis and efficacy of treatment for selection of drugs and line of treatment were carried out to have a better result of the research,ThesisItem Open Access Studies on the Effect of Different Dietary Composition of Pre - Starter Diets on Performances of Early Weaned Pigs(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Asem Ameeta Devi; Dr. J.P. Srivastava1.In general, type of feed and age of weaning had no significant effect on various economic traits. 2.Weight gain in piglets weaned at 8th weeks of age was significantly higher than those weaned at 5th weeks, but differences after 8th weeks of age were no significant. 3.The piglets reared on T₂ diet (100% skimmed milk powder replaced by fish meal) had slightly higher weight gain than those maintained on T, diet (with 4% skimmed milk powder). 4. The cost involved on one kg weight was significantly lower in piglets reared on diet T₂ than T 5. The farrowing interval of sows who weaned their piglets at 5th weeks had significantly lower value than those weaned at 8th weeks. 6.Diets and age of weaning had no significant influence on nutrient digestibility and feed conversion efficiency.ThesisItem Open Access Studies on Bacillus Cereus Isolated from Milk and Milk Products(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Miss Elanbam Motina; Md,KalimuddinAltogether 250 samples of milk and milk products from urban and suburban areas of Ranchi were tested, out of which 81 samples revealed contamination with Bacillus cereus and the percent positivity was 32.40. Higher percent of contamination was found in urban (36.00) than in suburban (28.80) areas. However, statistical analysis revealed that the difference was not significant. Results of studies on milk and milk products also showed similar pattern of contamination with Bacillus cereus. Of the milk products tested, highest percentage (41.37%) of rasogula samples followed by milk powder (40.00%) pera and berfi each (26.31%) were found contaminated. The more samples of raw milk from urban (35.71%) than from suburban (25.00%) areas were found positive for Bacillus cereus. The average presumptive counts of Bacillus cereus in the samples of milk and milk products drawn from urban areas were more than in the samples of suburban areas. but this difference was statistically not significant. Majority of the positive samples of milk and milk products had a presumptive and confirmatory counts of <4.000 cfu/ml or g in suburban and urban areas. Confirmatory counts of Bacillus cereus was 5.000 cfu/g and above in milk products from urban area. Only two samples from suburban area were found contaminated at the level of 8.000 to 9.000 cfu/g of berfi.ThesisItem Open Access Superovulation and Embrya Collection from Prepubertal Goats and its transfer in Adult Block Bengal Goats(Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Nighat wafai; S.K. SinhaThirty Black Bongal Goats (12 propubortal about 710 months old and 18 adult 112 to 3 years old) were taken for the present study. Out of 12 prepubertal goats, six were subjected to a super ovulatory treatment comprising of PMSG and HCG (Gr.l) and remaining six received no treatment and served as controls (Gr.1l) Eighteen adult goats were also divided into Group-III, Group-IV and Group-V with each having six animals. The goats under Group III also received a super ovulatory treatment (PMSG and HCG) for comparative studies whereas animals under Group IV and Group V served as recipients for Group I and Group III synchronization. Studies receiving PGF, alpha alone for estrus on synchronization, superovulation, embryo collection and its evaluation were carried out in prepubertal and adult goats. Normal transferable embryos were transferred in the adult recipient goats with a synchronous stage of estrus comparable to donor goats. The percentage of success of embryo transfer was evaluated on the basis of kids born. The observations thus recorded are summarized below. The average time interval between PMSG administration and onset of estrus in prepubertal and adult goats was 24.70+3.60 and 27.00+1.29 hours respectively. The variation in the time interval was, however, non-significant statistically. The control group didn't show signs of estrus during the comparative studies.
