This work is aimed to determine the profile of electrophoretic serum protein in healthy adult broiler breeders (Gallus gallus domesticus) of the Avian farm strain. Fifteen breeders aging 63 weeks from Conchas, city located in the State of São Paulo, were assessed. The biuret method was used to obtain the total serum protein values and protein fractions separation through electrophoresis technique in agarose gel, and film reading through densitometry in 520nM. Seven fractions were obtained, whereas, β 1 - globulin and β 2 - globulin were not cited by the authors in the textbooks checked. The prealbumin fraction was identified only in six out of 15 samples analyzed. In five breeders, it was observed the division of g - globulin into two fractions named g - 1 and g - 2, according to the electrophoretic mobilities. The relation albumin/globulin (A/G) found in the experiment agrees with the other authors cited, demonstrating that it decreases as the age increases.

Lately, researchers have taken into consideration studies on birds since they represent an excellent nutritional source. There are several classical descriptions of the male reproductive tract, always aiming at establishing a correlation with shape, testicular size, age and sexual maturity. This study analyzed 50 male Gallus domesticus, 1 to 64 weeks old. The birds were collected with 10 days and then weekly until 24 weeks, following 37, 48, 59 and 64 weeks, and sacrificed by cervical displacement. It was observed the sintopies of testis with the other organs. Further, it was done the testicular measurement and then the statistical analysis by following the model of testis weight variation due to the animal age. Our results showed that the maximum weight of the right and left testes occurred with 167 and 210 days, respectively, what made us infer this species sexual maturity in this period.

Poucas informações estão disponíveis até o momento sobre os vírus do sorogrupo Gamboa (Bunyaviridae, Orthobunyavirus), desta forma, foi realizado, neste trabalho, estudo filogenético dos membros do sorogrupo Gamboa entre si e com outros orthobunyavírus ao nível gene Gn (M-RNA), além de infecção experimental em pintos recém nascidos da espécie Gallus gallus domesticus com a cepa Be AN 439546 do Vírus Gamboa (VGAM), e estudo sorológico em aves, outros animais silvestres e humanos de Tucuruí – Pará. A análise filogenética dos vírus do sorogrupo Gamboa demonstrou que esses vírus são geneticamente mais relacionados com membros do grupo Turlock e menos com os do grupo Simbu, e foram distribuídos em dois clados distintos (I e II), que estão de acordo com a atual classificação sorológica, de modo que o clado I inclui o complexo Gamboa e o clado II o complexo Alajuela. A cepa Be AN 439546 do VGAM apresentou tropismo pelo pulmão e fígado de pintos recém nascidos experimentalmente infectados, sendo a replicação viral nesses órgãos confirmada por imunohistoquímica, o que demonstra que o VGAM replica-se nessa ave. A detecção de anticorpos inibidores da hemaglutinação contra o VGAM e a confirmação por teste de neutralização em plasma de aves silvestres reforça a hipótese de que esses animais constituem o principal hospedeiro de amplificação no ciclo de manutenção do VGAM. Estudos moleculares do genoma completo dos vírus do sorogrupo Gamboa, assim como sobre a ecoepidemiologia do vetor e dos hospedeiros (principalmente aves), para o ciclo de replicação dos vírus, são importantes para confirmar as informações já existentes sobre esses vírus.

In the process of artificial incubation of fertile eggs of chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) there are procedures that, they are not hindered the birth, they cause embryonic mortality. Handlings before incubation as disinfection and storage are capable to reduce the embryonic if accomplished of inadequate way viability. Already in the incubation process properly says, irregularities in variables as temperature, turning, humidity and ventilation in the incubator reduce the hatchability, what means that, of the total of fertile eggs there is reduction in the number of born chicks, there is like this the reduction of profit of the incubator, being necessary an analysis of which they interfered in the birth

The aim of this study was to experimentally evaluate infection in Gallus gallus domesticus with Neospora caninum tachyzoites of the NC-1 strain. Experimental infection was conducted in 90-day-old chickens, embryonated eggs and bioassays in dogs. In the first experiment, poults were randomly divided into four groups. Groups I and II were provided feed with coccidiostat, whereas groups III and IV received feed without coccidiostat. When the poults from groups I and III reached 90 days of age, they received a subcutaneous inoculation of N. caninum. Once the hens entered their egg-laying period, during the following 30 days, the eggs were collected, identified, weighed and placed in an incubator. On the 70th day after inoculation, all animals, including the chicks, were euthanized. Tissue samples from the adult poultry and chicks were collected for histopathology, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and PCR. Brain tissue and pectoral muscle samples from infected birds were fed to two dogs. Notably, the average weight of the group III eggs was lower than that of the group IV eggs (p <0.05). No changes consistent with infection in adult poultry or chicks were detected by histopathology or IHC; moreover, no amplified parasite DNA was detected in the birds'tissues or dogs'feces. No dog eliminated oocysts. In the second experiment, the embryonated chicken eggs were inoculated with 1 x 10(2) N. caninum tachyzoites, on the 10th day of incubation, and chicks born from these eggs were housed in boxes suitable for the species and received commercial feed and distilled water ad libitum. On the 30th day after infection (DAI), the poultry were euthanized, and their organs were processed as described in experiment I. The amplification of parasite DNA was observed in the spleen and pectoral muscles of one of the birds. The ingestion of bird tissues by dogs did not result in oocyst elimination. These results indicate that the parasite may have been eliminated by the host and that the use of tachyzoites to induce chronic disease might be a poor source for hens. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
