Peptidases of parasitic protozoans are emerging as novel virulence factors and therapeutic targets in parasitic infections. A trypanosome-derived aminopeptidase that exclusively hydrolysed substrates with Glp (pyroglutamic acid) in P1 was purified 9248-fold from the plasma of rats infected with T...

An experiment was carried out with four rumen fistulated crossbred Friesian X Zebu lactating cows to evaluate the Na content of faeces as an indicator of Na deficiency in cattle. In addition, the effect of NaCl supplementation on the animal performance and rumen parameters was examined. The cows ...

Twenty-seven Boran and 37 Boran x Friesian bulls, weaned at six months of age, were allocated to either receive supplementary diet (16 percent crude protein and 10.8 MJ/kg DM energy) during the dry season or to serve as unsupplemented controls until 21 months of age. Body weight measurements were...

Blood screening over 12 months in 4 groups of villages in southwest Nigeria revealed the prevalence of Trypanosoma vivax (3.5%) and Babesia motasi (20.4%). There was a very high infection rate from B.motasi, although clinical babesiosis was not common. Although infection from T.vivax and B.motasi...
Plain (OAT), 1.4% urea-enriched (EOAT) and 3% themal-ammoniated (NH3OAT) oat grain were fed to South African Mutton Merino ewes as supplementary feed during late pregnancy and lactation, while grazing wheat stubble at 2 ewes/ha during 1986 and 1987. Blood glucose, urea, calcium, magnesium and zin...
