Evaluation of the effects of green tea extract as a dietary supplement in sheep on gas production, volatile fatty acids, and digestibility.

Background And Aim: Phenolic tannins, which are ubiquitous in plants, exhibit diverse biological activities and have drawn significant attention for their potential impact on ruminant nutrition and health. Although phenolic tannins have beneficial and detrimental effects on rumen fermentation, their precise influence remains poorly understood. This study aimed to explore the effects of varying doses of green tea extract (GTE) on rumen fermentation parameters through an trial using sheep rumen liquids.

Stem bark ethanolic extract of induces caspase 9-mediated apoptosis in HeLa cells.

Background: Cervical cancer is a severe concern for women throughout the world. This percentage of cancer incidence causes sufferers to die at a high rate. It is believed that the bark of the tree contains anti-cancer compounds that inhibit cervical cancer cell growth.

Effect of green tea dust as a dietary additive and anthelminthic on performance, digestibility, and fecal egg counts in Priangan ewe lambs infected with Strongyles worms.

Despite green tea dust (GTD) is a by-product of green tea fabrication, it has the potential as natural additive and anthelmintic in ruminant diets due to its high protein and bioactive contents. This study aimed to compare the effect of 3 different doses [0% (control), 0.75% (GTD-0.

Ovicidal activity and cytotoxicity of ethanolic extract of turmeric () and green tea () to treat digestive parasite of sheep.

Background: The Trichuris eggs are collected from naturally infected sheep. Natural antihelmintics such as herbal medicines are needed as an alternative, such as natural compounds from endemic plants.

Aim: This present study aims to evaluate the ovicidal activity and cytotoxicity effects of ethanolic extract of (EECL) and (EECS) as a biological anthelmintic against the egg of .

Gastrointestinal helminths of captive proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) in Surabaya zoo, Indonesia.

Background: One of the constrain in proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) conservation is gastrointestinal helminth (GH) infection. Here, we conducted a study to determine the prevalence of GHs in captive proboscis monkeys in Surabaya Zoo, Indonesia.

Methods: Twenty fecal samples were collected from three groups (i.

The Utilisation of Tannin Extract as a Dietary Additive in Ruminant Nutrition: A Meta-Analysis.

The objective of this meta-analysis was to elucidate whether there are general underlying effects of dietary tannin extract supplementation on rumen fermentation, digestibility, methane production, performance, as well as N utilisation in ruminants. A total of 70 papers comprised of 348 dietary treatments (from both in vivo and in situ studies) were included in the study. The database was then statistically analysed by the mixed model methodology, in which different experiments were considered as random effects and tannin-related factors were treated as fixed effects.

Amelioration on oxidative stress, testosterone, and cortisol levels after administration of Vitamins C and E in albino rats with chronic variable stress.

Background And Aim: Stress can cause physiological and biological disorders in the body. On the other hand, antioxidants from vitamins and minerals are effective for stress treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of the administration of Vitamins C and E on serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), testosterone, and cortisol activity in albino rats with chronic variable stress (CVS).

Assessing female reproductive status of spectral tarsier (Tarsius tarsier) using fecal steroid hormone metabolite analysis.

The wild population of spectral tarsier is declining and attempts to breed the species in captivity have been of limited success. One possible reason for this is that information on the reproductive biology of Tarsius tarsier is extremely limited and data on the species reproductive physiology are completely lacking. We validated fecal estrogen (E-total) and progesterone metabolite (5-P-3OH) measurements for monitoring female ovarian activity and pregnancy.

Sexual Behaviour of the Spectral Tarsier (Tarsius spectrum) in Captivity.

Tarsius spectrum is a primate species endemic to Sulawesi. Populations of the species have decreased due to habitat destruction and hunting. The sexual behaviour of T.
