Are Veterinary Products Necessary For Oral Administration?

Imagine being sick with a bacteria that is immune to standard antibiotics. This will become a reality if antibiotics are not removed from animal feed. Today, many meat industries scattered across America are mixing large amounts of antibiotics in animal feed. The feed that is fed to animals have a purpose to help reduce various diseases or sickness in their bodies, and making the poultry bulkier and less natural (Front Line Modern Meat 1). If the animal is being fed the same kind of probiotic for a long period of time, the bacteria in their bodies will become resistant to the drug. Once people consume that same animal, their bodies will also be resistant to antibiotic help (Front Line Modern Meat 1). Due to the high risk of consuming poultry, the FDA should ban livestock industries for adding antibiotics into animal feed.

Using the scientific method it is necessary to gain some knowledge about mealworms and the two different substrates.

With the beef industry being of such importance to the agriculture industry as a whole any practice to help sustain cattle gaining weight and lessen the effects of parasites both internally and externally should be in any health management plan for any heard. As multiple types of internal and external parasites could be competing with the animal directly for nutrients that could be going to the animals body condition score, the fetus that the animal is raising inside of her or the colostrum that the animal is trying to produce for the calf as soon as it is born. If deworming correlates to E.coli numbers in fecal material of the animal then such case could benefit everyone from the producer to the consumer as the animal is sent through the system from the

In discussion of animal rights, one controversial issue has been whether or not animals should be use for medical testing. On the one hand, some scientists argue that animal testing has contributed for many cures and treatments. On the other hand, animal rights activist contends that alternative methods now exist that can replace the need for animals. Others even maintain that animal testing is an essential part in medical research. My own view is that animals should not be used in medical testing because is no longer necessary now there are methods that are safer and have better results than animals do.

Maintaining healthy cultures is essential in achieving the proper outcome expected for this lab. Before preparation of vials, or observation of flies, the workbenches and equipment, such as brushes, pipets, and measuring tools were wiped down with 70% ethanol ,and fly pads, as well as Co2 guns, were thoroughly disinfected with kim wipes. Hands were required to be thoroughly washed with anti-bacterial soap and completely dry, especially before preparation of food. Distilled water and other required sources were regularly changed in order to maintain

5) My hypothesis: “The higher the concentration of antiseptic, the more powerful it will be at inhibiting/ killing microorganisms which cause bacterial growth.” This theory supports my result because as you can see the zone of inhibition increases due to the increasing concentration of antiseptic. The higher concentration of antiseptic means it has been less diluted, which means its more stronger than other more diluted concentrations, this high concentration will determine how powerful the antiseptic will be at killing/inhibiting the growth of bacterium, this high concentration of antiseptic will break down the bacterial cell wall, after this process has happened the antiseptic can stop the mutation of the bacteria and inhibit the

When the infective larvae on the pasture are eaten by the sheep they develop in the 4th stage larvae and become adults. This stage is called the host stage as they need to live inside a host (the sheep) or the worms will die. They live inside the sheep’s abomasum during which they lay eggs and will spend the rest of their lives and the whole cycle repeats itself

For the farmers of south east QLD (Australia), Barbers Pole worm is the main worm internal parasite infecting their sheep. This is due the amount of rain and the summer heat. Due to the weather and the climate of south east QLD, makes it the perfect environment for the Barbers Pole worm to infect the sheep. The Barbers pole life cycle is as so, once the barbers pole worm has laid its eggs in the stomach of the sheep, (barbers pole worm can lay up to 10,000 eggs per day), the worm eggs move through the digestive track and are mixed in this the fesses, the fesses are pooped out and into the land, the eggs hatch within 4-10 days, they will hatch faster in hot climate and slower in cold. Once the eggs have hatched they begin to feed on the bacteria

To alleviate any problems with fussy eaters, the Heartgard medication is supplied in the form of a tasty chewable treat. These 'chewables' contain beef to make them appetising to the most reticent tablet taker, but this does mean they are not suitable for dogs with sensitivities to beef. For those delicate pooches, ordinary Heartgard tablets will need to be bought. Heartgard Plus for dogs contain Ivermectin, which is an effective controller of many parasites. It is used widely for the treatment of a wide range of internal parasites in farm animals and in the treatment of dogs who test positive for full blown heartworm disease. The volume of Ivermectin contained in dog heartworm medicine is so small that it only eliminates heartworm larvae. Heartgard Plus medication does not prevent larval heartworms infecting your dog, it stops them living long enough to cause any problem. The way the heartworm medicine aspect of Heartgard Plus medication works is in a retrospective manner. Each month your dog is given his chewable and the active ingredient slowly destroys all heartworm larvae which have infected the blood during the previous thirty days. Because the drug works backwards, eliminating parasites before they can progress to adulthood, it is crucial that the treatment is given every month. Otherwise larvae deposited in your dog's bloodstream via a mosquito bite can grow and eventually reproduce. Although Ivermectin heartworm medications are good at eliminating larvae which have been in the system longer than a month, their efficiency reduces as the larvae grow. Alongside an extremely reliable heartworm preventative, Heartgard Plus chewables also contain Pyrantel, another parasite controller. This one targets roundworm and hookworms. Using Heartguard Plus for dogs eliminates the need for an additional deworming regime, providing a convenient method of controlling both intestinal worms and heartworms together. For more

•Spread hydatid tapeworm – hydatid tapeworm are a risk to human health and cause livestock production

Millions of people were killed by incurable diseases, such as smallpox, rabies, et cetera before the 18th century due to lack of knowledge in developing drugs and vaccine at that time. People caught by the diseases were hopeless because they knew that no one could help them. In the mid 1800s, animal testing was introduced to drug industry by Edward Jenner (Trueman, 2002). His brilliant discovery in developing smallpox vaccine by using animals helped a lot of people and gave hope to the medical field that incurable diseases were not incurable anymore. Although he was not the first man to use animal in experiments, his success made animal testing become commonly used in drug

To prepare 0.156% of Nordox and Mancozeb, 0.078 g of both fungicides were dissolved in two separate flasks containing 50 ml sterilized distilled water. The 50 ml mixture was used to dissolve 1.95 g PDA. These were then poured and divided into three plates to serve as replicates. The plates were incubated for 5 days at 28-30˚C in an incubation cabinet. However, it is found out that the recommended rate for both fungicides did not inhibit or stop the growth of the pathogen (see Appendix D, page 63). From these

Sturmeny (2009) notes that clinical formulation is also known as case formulation as a fundamental skill for all clinical professionals in the mental health field. The primary purpose of the formulation is to assess the patient’s problem from a varied perspective and time span that helps in the diagnosis and treatment plan for the patient. The predisposing factors determine the vulnerabilities the patient is prone to; the precipitating factors evaluate the stress factors; perpetuating factors assess the maintaining factors while the predictive factors as the positive and the negative prognostic features of the problem (Fernando, 2010). The table below indicates the clinical formulation for Luis.

R. delemar is classified as a biological safety 1 pathogen by the Centers for Diseases Control and the National Institutes of Health. As a precaution caging will be treated with 10% bleach solution prior to transport to the cage washer and is placed into a biosafety bin. The bag will be sealed and the outside of the container will be disinfected with 10% bleach solution prior to transport to a secure storage area. Waste R. delemar material and the carcasses of infected animals will be destroyed by incineration. Counters, work surface and floor will be decontaminated with 10% bleach

“Scientists told to stop wasting animal lives,” this is an article from The Guardian, written by Robin McKie. It addresses the issues about using animals to test products for us to use such as, medicines to try help treat serious illnesses and also for veterinary purposes. Animal testing is carried out by scientists to also test items we use daily such as makeup but this article is not talking about those particular issues. This article is discussing about undergoing new guidelines for those that are carrying out research using animals. The Research Council UK say they are now making scientists show their work will not only produce physiological understanding but will also generate statistically sturdy data. If not they will end up losing their funding.
