Concentration of Zn, Cu, Mn and Mg in Cattle With Natural Psoroptes Bovis Scabiei
(indian veterinary Journal, 2005) Kozat, S; Ekin, S; Yuksek, N; Kaya, A; Agaoglu, Z
Scabies is caused by Psoroptes bovis. The most cited causes of the disease are the over crowded accommodation of the animals in the barns, malnutrition and imbalanced feeding (Sargison et al., 1995; Sekin et al., 1998). Trace elements and minerals are of a prominent value in terms of increasing the resistance against the disease in the biological organisms, causing severe clinical conditions. in case of their shortage or excess (Underwood and Suttle, 2001). The aim of this study is to find out the levels of zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) Manganese (Mn) and Magnesium (Mg) in Psoroptes scabiei in cattle.
Levels of Some Trace Elements and Rheumatoid Factor in Sheep With Brucellosis
(Humana Press inc, 2004) Ekin, S; Kozat, S; Gunduz, H; Mert, N; Karakaya, C
Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease that is encountered in sheep rather frequently. In this study, 100 sheep diagnosed with brucellosis that had aborts and 40 healthy sheep were used as materials. Analyses for Cu, Zn, Fe, Cr, Ca, Mg, and K were performed with the atomic absorption spectrophotometric method on blood collected from vena jugularis of all the sheep and rheumatoid factor levels were determined by the nephelometry method. Although it was found that Cu, Ca, and rheumatoid factor values in the sera of the sheep with brucellosis were high when compared to the control group (p<0.001, p<0.05, p<0.001, respectively), their serum Zn values were low (p<0.05). No significant changes in serum Cr, Fe, K, and Mg levels were found.
