Impaired metabolism of mineral substances in the conditions of industrial rabbit breeding may cause decrease in increment of live mass, reduction of immunity, mass morbidity and death of animals. In our experiment, we studied the efficiency of using a mineral mixture to prevent the disorders in the ...

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different supplemental levels of combined yeast and Bacillus coagulans fermentation culture on growth performance, nutrient apparent digestibility, immunity and antioxidant capacity of Rex rabbits. A total of 160 healthy Rex rabbits at...

The present study was undertaken to investigate the protective roles of Adansonia digitata (African baobab) Cucumeropsis mannii (Melon), Abelmoschus esculentus(Okro), on lipid profile, bone health, and selected organs (liver, kidney, brain, and testis) against cadmium-induced toxicity in rabbits....

Objectives: To determine the association between signalment, selected haematologic and biochemical parameters and referral centre in pet rabbits with imaging evidence of urolithiasis presented to two veterinary teaching hospitals in North America. Materials and Methods: The medical record database...

Type 2 Diabetes mellitus was induced in rabbits with 120 mg/kg alloxan and 50 mg/kg nicotinamide injected intraperitoneally (IP). The condition was confirmed by fasting blood glucose (FBS) of ≥200 mg/dl and insulin resistance >3 mg/dL at 2 weeks. We then intubated groups of 5 rabbits each with...

Objective: This study was carried out to investigate the effects of estradiol benzoate (EB) injection to male rabbits on glucose, total-protein, albumin, calcium concentrations and prostate tissue, and the role of prolactin as an important mediator of estrogen action in prostate. Materials and...

In present experimental study, haematological and some serum biochemical alterations were explored in six months old commercially raised eight female rabbits after oral administration of gossypol. Cotton seed cake with 0.25% free gossypol concentration was daily given to each rabbit at the rate of...

Calcium is a mineral found mainly in the bones and teeth of animals. It is responsible for several activities such as: muscle contraction, blood clotting, selective permeability of cell membranes, enzymatic activities and hormonal release. Its metabolism is complex and involves the participation of ...

The research has been conducted to find the clinical efficacy and safety of preanaesthetics and induction agents based on clinical and serum biochemical indicators in rabbits. Eight healthy rabbits (3.0-3.5 kg) of either sex were arbitrarily allocated into two groups: Group DK (diazepam-ketamine)...

In order to evaluate the use of platelets-rich serum (PRP), alone or combined with other cellular activators, such as calcium chloride and / or thrombin, on the skin healing process in rabbits with artificially induced wounds. To do this, 10 experimental units were used to which 3 surgical incision ...
