[Nutritional secondary hyper parathyroidism incidence in kittens and effects of two treatment regimens]

Diagnosis of Nutritional Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in preliminary stage was studied by determination of serum profiles as first key for early diagnostic method. On the other hand compare between two treatment methods for osteoprothic cases has concerned in second part of survey. Treatment performed by drug consumption and changes in food regimes for two seperated groups. 50 osteoprotic and 50 normal 2-3 month old kittens were selected randomly. Radiographic exams were our landmark to selection of osteoprothic kittens. Serum calcium [Ca], parathormon[PTH], phosphorus[P] and serum alkaline phosphatase[AP] levels measured in all of them. Serum profiles have in osteoprothic and normal ittens were compared by student t-test and paired t-test. Comparative study showed significant decrease in serum P and increase in PTH in the first group [Osteoporotic kittens] [P<0.05]. No significant changes have seen in serum Ca and APin both groups

[Effects of clove oil [Eugenia caryophyllata] anesthesia on haematological parameters, certain serum enzymes and some tissues in common carp [Cyprinus carpio]]

Objectives: side effects of 100 and 200ppm clove oil, were studied on some haematological parameters, serum enzymes and brain, liver, kidney, spleen and gill of common carp [Cyprinus carpio]

Animals: common carp [Cyprinus carpio]

Procedure: anaesthesia in common carp was induced by 100 and 200ppm clove oil under acceptable water quality conditions at 20+/-2 degree c and hematological and biochemical parameters and histopathology of hematopoietic tissues [kidney and spleen], liver, brain and gills were studied

Statistical analysis: SPSS and SX software one way ANOVA and student t-test

Results: no significant differences were found in levels of WBC, RBC, haematocrit, haemoglobin, MCH, MCHC, alanintransarninase [ALT], aspartatetransaminase [AST], alkalinphosphatase [ALP] and lactatedehydrogenase [LDH] between the anaesthetized fish and control groups [0.3>P>0.1]. Also, there was not any histological abnormality observable in liver, kidney, spleen and gills of anaesthetized groups. However, only hyperemia was seen in brain of both groups

Conclusion: according to the results administration of clove oil, up to 200ppm in aquaculture is safe and recommended
