Immunohistochemical Evaluation Of The Expressed Immunoglobulin M (igm)-positive Lymphocyte During The Development Of Thymus In Nigerian Native Chicken
Immunoglobulins (Igs) or antibodies are glycoproteins synthesised by activated B lymphocytes that combat antigens. Among the three isotypes in chicken, immunoglobulin M (IgM) is the first expressed antibody following exposure to a novel antigen. The thymic expressions of IgM-positive lymphocytes were studied in Nigerian native chicken using immunohistochemistry to... Continue here
Effect Of Additives And Ensiling Periods On Physical Properties And Proximate Composition Of Maize Cob Silage
This study evaluated the effect of urea, yeast, molasses, and ensiling period on the silage qualities, proximate composition and fibre fractions of maize cob silages. Twelve kilograms (12 kg) of maize cobs were chopped into smaller pieces of about 1cm and sprinkled with a solution of urea, molasses and yeast at 1%, 3% and 1% respectively. The experiment was laid... Continue here
Carcass Characteristics And Organ Weights Of Grower Rabbits Fed Graded Levels Of Soybean Cheese Waste As A Replacement For Full-fat Soybean
This study evaluated the carcass characteristics and organ weights of grower rabbits fed full-fat soybean cheese waste meal as a replacement for full-fat soybean meal. Thirty (30) mongrel rabbits with an initial body weight of 1160.00-1206.67g were randomly assigned to five dietary treatments of six rabbits per treatment with two rabbits per replicate in a...

Growth Performance And Carcass Characteristics Of Broiler Chickens Fed Diets Supplemented With Exogenous Phytase
This study was conducted at the Poultry Section of Rivers State University Teaching and Research Farm, Nkpolu-Oroworukwo, to examine the growth performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens fed diets supplemented with exogenous phytase. A total of 120 day-old ROSS 308 broiler chicks were used in the study and, after one week of brooding, were... Continue here
Ethnoveterinary Practice Used In The Treatment Of Dogs In Ilara-mokin, Ondo State, Nigeria
Ethnoveterinary practices represent an essential component of indigenous knowledge systems that contribute significantly to animal healthcare in rural communities. However, documented evidence on such practices, particularly those related to the treatment of dogs, remains limited in Ondo State, Nigeria. This study was conducted to identify, document, and analyse... Continue here
Prevalence, Characterisation, And Antimicrobial Resistance Pattern Of Salmonella Species In Poultry From Zuru Emirate, Kebbi State, Nigeria
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global public health concern affecting humans and animals. Salmonella spp., commonly found in poultry, is a major cause of foodborne illnesses and increasingly shows resistance to antibiotics. In Nigeria, poultry farming is crucial for food and employment, but extensive antibiotic use and poor biosecurity contribute to the... Continue here
