No effect of HCG upon the plasma testosterone level in 16 bulls was seen the first 5 or 15 min after injection. In 8 bulls receiving 750 or 1500 i.u. HCG by intravenous injection a lag time of 30 min occurred ...
Stabursvik (1959) described the saponin fraction of Narthecium ossifragum as a sarsasapogenin glycoside with the structure arabinosegalactose-xylose-glucose-sarsasapogenin. In a renewed study of the phototoxic l...
The concentrations in plasma of total protein, urea-N, Ca, Mg, Na and K and the activity of aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) in plasma were studied in 20 sows from one week...
Total thyroxine in plasma was studied during pregnancy, lactation and during the post weaning period. The ovarian activity was monitored by progesterone determinations, and oestrous symptoms were recorded. In ...
Milk trypsin-inhibitor levels were followed during clinical and experimental endotoxin-induced mastitis. Milk trypsin-inhibitor level proved to be a good indicator of mastitis, closely relating to milk BSA val...
Peripheral blood plasma levels of progesterone were studied in pregnant and non-pregnant reindeer. Marked differences in progesterone levels were found between pregnant and non-pregnant animals indicating that...
In two experiments of 3 × 3 Latin square with growing pigs, the effect was investigated of supplementation of 5 % or 10 % (2.5 % vs. 5 % DM) polyol mixture and 2.5 % or 5 % of xylitol on digestibility of diet,...
Strains of Vibrio alginolyticus were regularly isolated from mussels, fish, bottom sediment and seawater from April to October. Vibrio parahaemolyticus was isolated occasionally in samples from mussels and bot...
A progressive paresis was encountered in herds of Swedish goats. The symptoms developed during a period of weeks or months, and were initially often seen as a weakness of the hind limbs before the animals beca...
