Cytology is a science of cells that is used to differentiate between normal cells, neoplastic cells and inflamed cells. It has great acceptance than any other diagnostic methods due to its quickness, inexpensiveness and simplicity. It uses the techniques such as fine needle aspiration, impression, scraping, swabs, centesis and catheterization for sample collection. Also slide preparation uses a simple technique such as squash, blood smear; needle spread and line smear techniques. What makes cytology unique is that it can tell us the result of the diseases while the patient is with us. This science has also wide application on determining the external and internal diseases including neoplastic diseases. In case of neoplastic diseases it is important to differentiate between neoplastic nucleus, neoplastic cytoplasm and neoplastic structure of different cells with their normal cells. In addition to these, it also used in direct therapy, to form prognosis and to determinate next diagnostic procedures. Character of the lesion and tissue sampled play pivotal roles in the diagnostic value of cytology. Familiarity with preferred sampling methods and reported accuracy is critical for veterinary practitioners and sample of good quality is imperative. Different specimen sampling methods and specimen processing methods should be properly practiced.
An ethno botanical survey was conducted from November 2014 to April 2015 in Melkabello district, Eastern Harerghe Zone, Oromia Regional State of Ethiopia. The objectives of the study were designed to document ethno veterinary medicinal plants and identify their associated threats. A structured and pre tested questionnaire was used to collect the required data. About 20 traditional healers were purposively selected based on the recommendation of local authorities. The majority of the healers were male, 16 (80%) and the remained 4 (20%) were females. In this study about 68 medicinal plant species belonging to 55 families were identified in the study area. The principal sources of the medicinal plants were from wild, cultivated and both with the proportion of 53 (77.9%), 12 (17.6%) and 3 (4.4 %), respectively. In this study herb, 27 (39.7%) followed by tree, 19 (27.9%) were the most commonly used habits of the plants by traditional healers. The major plant parts used were leaf, 40 (58.8%) and bark, 2 (2.9%). The most common administration routes were oral, 48 (70.6%) followed by topical, 12 (17.6%) and aerosol 3(4.4%). Febrile diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, external injuries, blackleg and reproductive insufficiency were treated by the traditional practioners. In conclusion, the study revealed that participants had a good knowledge to treat livestock ailments, but the dose varies among the healers. Therefore, further study should be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and standardize the dose of medicinal plants in the study area.Keywords: Ailments, Eastern Harerghe Zone, Ethiopia, Ethno-Veterinary,Medicinal Plants
Veterinary pills are utilized in Food animals now no longer handiest for remedy however additionally for manipulate of diseases, prevention and boom promoter. They have the ability to generate residues in animal derived merchandise. Common pills which can be administered to animal are antimicrobial pills, anti-parasitic compounds and boom promoters. Factors influencing the incidence of residues are age of animal, feeding, disorder status, pharmacokinetics and extra-label drug use. So, it wishes a few ideas to observe to assess protection of meals consisting of ADI, MRL and calculating withdrawal time. Veterinary drug residue in meals of animal beginning can be the purpose critical public fitness in human. These issues may also include: improvement of drug resistance, drug allergy response and carcinogenic, mutagenicity, teratogenicity, and disruption of intestinal ordinary flora. To locate and pick out antimicrobial residue in meals of animal beginning makes use of screening check and confirmatory checks used. There are one-of-a-kind screening checks utilized in latest time consisting of immunoassays, microbiological checks and Biosensors. In addition, use confirmatory checks like HPLC and TLC. Although drug residues purpose critical public fitness impacts, little is understood through the society and there may be loss of records approximately it, in order that its miles crucial to study on drug residue in meals of animal beginning to perception its public fitness importance. so, there are approaches to save you and manipulate drug residues in meals of animal beginning through carrying out the subsequent measurements consisting of the drug merchandise must be used according with the categorized directions, public consciousness must be created on the general public fitness importance of drug residue the use of one-of-a-kind media, administer all pills well and pick out all dealt with animals, use handiest pharmaceuticals with veterinary steerage and hold drug well.
Citation ABSTRACTBackground and Aim: Even though Ethiopia encounters considerable losses due to tick infestations, and existing research has reported the distribution and abundance of tick species across different parts of the country, there are no evidences supporting the prevalence and distribution of hard ticks at the Horo Guduru Animal Breeding and Research Center. Therefore, the main objectives of this research are: to analyze the prevalence of ixodid ticks and identify them in the study area as well as to provide baseline data on the relative distribution of tick species. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 409 cattle (305 local breed (Horo breed) and 104 cross breed (Horo breed × Jersey breed) using simple random sampling techniques for identification and determination of prevalence of ticks at the study area. Results: In the present study, the overall prevalence of tick infestation was recorded as 78.23%. Two tick genera were identified with the composition of Ambylomma (51.2%) and Rhipicephalus (48.8%). In the study area, four tick species were identified with their respective prevalence of Rh. (B.) decoloratus (33.8%), A. variegatum (21.3%), Rh. e. evertsi (15%) and A. cohaerens (29.9%). The prevalence of tick infestation was found to be significantly different (p<0.05) between breeds with higher prevalence in local breed (Horo breed) (83.6%) than cross (Horo breed × Jersey) (62.5%). The prevalence of tick infestation among age groups was highly prevalent in adult cattles (79.08%) relative to young (73.3%) cattles. The prevalence of ticks was also highest in medium (81.4%) and lowest in good (73.4%) cattles respectively. Conclusion: The overall prevalence rate of ixodid ticks in the current study area was 78.23%. According to the present finding, the most important tick species that was intensively investigated were A. decolaratus, Rh. evertsi-evertsi, A. varigatum, and A. cohaerence. The study indicated that there was a high burden of ticks in the discussed area.
