Oxidative Stress Indicators In West African Dwarf Goats Does (young Females) During Gestation
The study investigated the serum biochemistry and oxidative stress markers in West African Dwarf (WAD) goats does (young females) as gestation progresses. The study took place at the Small Ruminant Farm of Teaching and Research Farm, University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. Forty-two (42) gravid does aged 12-24 months with an average weight of...

Structural Comparison Of Mx1 Protein Of Three Strains Of Nigerian Indigenous Chicken And Exotic Chicken
This research was conducted on three strains of Nigerian indigenous chicken with nucleotide sequences retrieved from the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). The translated sequences were also used to model the possible tertiary structure of the proteins they encode for; this was done on the Swiss model server. Multiple sequence alignment analyses...

Growth And Phenotypic Traits Of Juvenile Achatina Fulica Snails In Mkpatak, Nigeria
Juveniles of Achatina fulica snails were selected from a population produced by three (3) mating groups (Black-Skinned X Black-Skinned [BS X BS], White-Skinned X White-Skinned [WS X WS], and Black-Skinned X White-Skinned [BS X WS]). One hundred and fifty (150) snails, with each mating group consisting of fifty (50) juvenile snails were used in this study to... Continue here
Egg Quality Traits Of Some Selected Indigenous Poultry Species In Nigeria
Egg quality traits are so important for both consumers and for developing new chicks, hence, this research investigated the egg quality traits of four indigenous poultry species (Guinea fowl, Turkey, Duck and Chicken). Forty-eight eggs (12 eggs from each species) were used for this experiment, each treatment was replicated three times, and each egg was assessed... Continue here
Comparison Of Phenotypic Traits And Chemical Composition Of Egg From Chicken (gallus Gallus) And Guinea Fowl (numida Meleagris)
Due to the rapid increase in the global population, there is a corresponding increase in the demand for daily protein and mineral requirements, thus, emphasizing the need for cost-effective and readily available protein sources. The study evaluates the phenotypic traits (shell weight, shell thickness, yolk weight, and albumen weight) and chemical composition (yolk... Continue here
Physiochemical Qualities And Digestibility Of Ensiled Ficus Lyrata Leaves With Varying Proportions Of Cowpea Husks Fed To Red Sokoto Goats During The Dry Season
This study was conducted to evaluate the physical properties, chemical compositions and digestibility of ensiled Ficus lyrata leaves with varying proportions of cowpea husks fed to Red Sokoto goats. The fresh leaves and soft stalks of Ficus lyrata were harvested around September and wilted for 12 hours before being chopped to 2-3cm particle size. The chopped... Continue here
Evaluation Of Lawsonia Inermis (henna) And Hibiscus Sabdariffa (roselle) Ethanol Extracts As Substitute For Eosin Stain In Histology Using Albino Rats
Staining techniques have significantly advanced the identification of tissue structures under the microscope, facilitating precise diagnostic processes. Stains, which are dyes modified for biological use, are essential in histological studies. This study aims to assess the staining efficacy of ethanol extracts from Lawsonia inermis (Henna) and Hibiscus sabdariffa... Continue here
