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.
Factors influencing the motility of the perfused horse intestine. No abstract available1. The magnitude of the rhythmic contractions of the perfused ileum varied with the supply of oxygen.
2. Isotonic sodium chloride solution was as good as Tyrode's solution for suspension of the red cells in the perfusion fluid.
3. Variation of the potassium and calcium content of the perfusion fluid had little effect on motility. Sodium ions had a specific function in maintaining motility.
4. The chloride ions in the perfusion fluid were replaced by bromide, phosphate and sulphate ions without affecting motility. Iodide ions were toxic.
5. The ileum perfused wi...
