Purpose: Canine ehrlichiosis is an important tick-borne disease of dogs worldwide. In the present study, we aimed to determine the serum total antioxidant capacity (TAC), malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), superoxide dismutase, (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity and serum protein profiles in dogs affected with naturally acquired ehrlichiosis.
Methods: The animal materials had been consisted of ten dogs naturally infected with Ehrlichia canis, and ten controls negative for Ehrlichia canis.

The aim of the current study is to determine whether OEO and an approved anticoccidial, monensin sodium ( MON: ), as in-feed supplements could create a synergism when combined at low dosages. Day-old broiler chickens were separated into six equal groups with six replicate pens of 36 birds.

- Oxidative stress occurs when there's an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants, leaning towards more oxidants.
- This study focused on measuring oxidative stress in dogs infected with Babesia vogeli by analyzing levels of 8-OHdG, nitric oxide (NO), and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) using ELISA.
- Results showed a significant increase in 8-OHdG levels in the infected dogs compared to the control group, while NO levels rose and TAC levels fell, though the latter two changes were not statistically significant.
