Topic:Animal Science
Animal Science and horses encompass the study of equine biology, physiology, and management practices aimed at understanding and improving horse health, welfare, and performance. This field integrates various scientific disciplines, including genetics, nutrition, reproduction, and behavior, to address the needs of horses in diverse contexts such as sports, work, and companionship. Research in this area often focuses on optimizing feeding strategies, enhancing breeding programs, and developing effective health management protocols. Additionally, studies explore the genetic factors influencing traits such as athleticism and disease resistance, as well as the impact of environmental and management conditions on horse behavior and welfare. This page gathers peer-reviewed research and scholarly articles that investigate the scientific principles underpinning equine science and their practical applications in horse care and management.
Evaluation of the corneal test as a laboratory method for rabies diagnosis. The corneal test (CT) for rabies diagnosis was evaluated in samples from 313 subjects of different species. Some of the subjects were inoculated experimentally and others were naturally infected. When the CT was compared with immunofluorescence staining and mouse inoculation tests on brains of the same subjects, a sensitivity of 41.7% and a specificity of 100% were found. The authors conclude that a positive CT result would confirm the diagnosis of rabies, but a negative one would not exclude the possibility of disease.
Intermicrosomal distribution of aromatizing enzyme system in equine testicular tissue. The microsomal fraction (10 000–105 000 × g precipitate) of equine testes was fractionated into the smooth- and the rough-surfaced microsomal subfractions by a sucrose density-gradient centrifugation in the presence of CsCl. The validity of this fractionating procedure was confirmed by electron microscopic examination and also by chemical analysis of the RNA contents in these subfractions. The aromatizing enzyme system (19-hydroxylase and aromatase) which was concentrated in the microsomal fractions among the organellae was found to be localized in the smoothsurfaced microsomal fraction.
