Topic:Animal Health
Animal Health encompasses a broad range of topics focused on maintaining and improving the well-being of equine species. This field addresses various aspects of horse care, including disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and management of health conditions. Key areas of interest include equine nutrition, vaccination protocols, parasite control, dental care, and the management of chronic conditions such as laminitis and colic. Additionally, animal health research in horses investigates the impact of exercise and training on physical health, the role of genetics in disease susceptibility, and the development of new therapeutic approaches. This page compiles peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore the latest advancements, challenges, and best practices in preserving and enhancing the health of horses.
Analysis of the pattern of ejaculation in stallions. The emission of stallion semen was studied with the aid of
an `open' Krak\l=o'\w-72Model artificial vagina. The pattern of mating
behaviour was constant in all copulations observed : a mean number of
seven intravaginal thrusts was required to elicit ejaculation. The
pressure within the vestibule of the artificial vagina averaged 66 mmHg
at the beginning of copulation, 142 mmHg just before ejaculation, and
70 mmHg during the emission of semen. Emission appeared to be a more
variable process. Five to ten jets were observed; the mean number was
eight. The early jets occurred under high pr...
The purification of cholinesterase from horse serum. A relatively simple method is described by which cholinesterase was purified about 19000-fold starting from horse serum. Typically 20 litres of serum were processed to yield 15-18mg of electrophoretically pure cholinesterase in the form of an active salt-free dry powder. The method included two stages: fractionation with (NH(4))(2)SO(4) and ion-exchange chromatography. The (NH(4))(2)SO(4) stage included, in principle, the acid (pH3) step of the Strelitz (1944) procedure. The step took advantage of the stabilizing effect that 33%-satd. (NH(4))(2)SO(4) has on cholinesterase activity at pH3 and i...
