Publisher: 1991Dissertation note: Some blood and urinary parameters were studied on 70 buffalo-cows (50 suffering from parturient haemoglobinuria and 20 healthy animals) in this experiment. The animals were divided into three groups i.e; Group 'A" comprising of 17 animals affected with pre-parturient haemoglobinuria, Group "B" comprising of 33 animals affected with post parturient haemoglobinuria and Group comprising of 20 healthy animals.
The blood parameters studied were serum glucose, serum potassium and serum iron. All the three blood parameters were significantly high in animals affected with pre- parturient and post-parturient haemoglobinuria as compared to the control group animals. The values of serum glucose were respectively 78.8, 71.9 and 50.9 mg/dl in group A, B and C.
The values of serum potassium were 14.3, 13.2 and 4.7 in.mol/L in group A, B and C respectively. Serum iron values of 32.6, 29.9 and 27.3 u inol/L were recorded in group A, B, and C respectively.
The urine samples from all the 70 animals belonging to group A, B and C were examined for the presence of haemoglobin, which was present in all the animals belonging to group A and B (animals affected with haemoglobinuria) and urinary PH. The PH values in the affected groups A & B were significantly higher (8.96 in both A & B groups) as compared to the control group C (8.09).
The urinary phosphorus values were also determined in this experiment. The phosphorus values were significantly lower in the affected groups A & B as compared to the control group C. -

One hundred and twenty broiler chicks at 21 days of age were divided into four groups, each group was comprised of 30 birds. Chicks in Groups A, B and C were administered with HPS Inoculum through oral, subcutaneous and intramuscular routes, respectively whereas the chicks in Group D served as control. Clinical symptoms observed were depression, ruffled feathers, gasping and disinclination to move. Blood samples were collected on 4th, 8th and 12th day post-inoculation. 1 he total leukocytes increased significantly (P < 0.01). In contrast, total erythrocytes and haemoglobin contents were decreased ( P < 0.05) in subcutaneously and intramuscularly-induced HPS Groups. Oral route of HPS - inoculation did not cause any change in these two parameters.
Serum sodium concentrations were significantly (P < 0.01) decreased due to I IPS-inoculation. Potassium concentrations were significantly increased (P < 0.05) only in subcutaneously anti intramuscularly-induced HPS infection whereas potassium concentrations on 4th, 8th and 1 21h day post - inoculation were not found different among themselves.

Publisher: 1991Dissertation note: The investigation was conducted to study the effects of organochiorine insecticide (BHC) on the hematology and liver, kidney and spleen in chickens.
One hundred day-old broiler chicks were reared upto two weeks of age , then they were divided into four groups i.e. A, B, C and D (25 chicks in each group). Group A was maintained on a feed containing 100 mg BHC/kg feed. Group B was given a water contaminated with BHC at a dose rate of 100 mg/liter. Group C was reared on a litter which was sprayed with 0.65% BHC. 'ihe litter treatment was repeated at an interval of seven days. Group D was kept as control. All groups were kept under close observation for the development of signs and symptoms of BIIC toxicity. The blood from 5 chicks in each group was collected by slaughtering at
the age of 14 days, 21 days, 28 days, 35 days and 42 days. From the collected blood haematologicai alterations (TLC, TEC, DLC, PCV and Hb estimation) were studied and pathological changes in spleen, liver and kidney were compared with the control group. flefore slaughtering the weight of the birds were also taken.
Weight of the birds was recorded before slaughtering, there was a significant decrease in weight in groups A, B and C as compared to control group D and there was significant increase between 21-35 days, 21-35 days and 28-42 days.
Antemortem symptoms were recorded throughout the experiment and observed that feed intake of the treated groups was decreased, growth was retarded significantly. The treated birds were reluctant to move, hypersensitive, dull and depressed with ruffled feathers
In postmortem examination the main necropsy findings were small hemorrhages throughout the body muscles, hepatomegaly and swollen kidneys in groups A and B. The muscular hemorrhages were not recorded in group C.
The main histopathological lesions of liver and kidney included vascular congestion, cloudy swelling, vacuolization, hemorrhages, leukocytic infiltration and necrosis. There were no microscopic changes in spleen of groups A and B after 21 and 28 days, but in groups A and B after 35 and 42 days vascular congestion, hemorrhages and necrosis were observed.
Haematologlcal alterations were studied in all the three treated groups A, B, C and control group
D. There was no significant difference found in erythrocytlc count, hemoglobin estimation and packed cell volume amongst all the groups, at all the ages. The total leukocytic count showed a significant increase in groups A, B and C as compared to control group D and there wa also a significant increase between 21-28 days, 21-35 days and 21-42 days in groups A, B and C. The differential leukocytic count showed a significant decrease in lymphocytes and eosinophils in all the three groups i.e. A, B and C throughout the treatment while heterophils and monocytes increased significantly in all three treated groups as compared to control group D, but there was no change in basophils.

Publisher: 1991Dissertation note: 75 buffaloes suffering from parturient haemoglobinuria and 25 healthy buffaloes were recorded for study. The samples and data were collected from 8 districts of Punjab. (Sargodha, IChushab, Gujranwala, Shekhupura, Okara, Sahiwal, Kasur and Bahawalnagar). Buffaloes in prime age and good health were mostly affected near parturition or after parturition. The highest percentage of cases was noted in 3rd lactation (36%), January (46.44%) and in post-parurition conclisition (88%). The Analysis of urine samples of affected buffaloes revealed the presence of haemoglobin, and light brown to coffee colour.
The clinical findings were haemoglobinuria, haemoglobinaemia, anoxic anaemia, voiding red coloured urine, weakness, constipation, staggering gait and slight rise of temperature that in later stages becomes subnormal.
The green fooder offered were Turnips, I3arseem and Sarsoon, during the winter season were low in phosphorus contents and considered to be predlisposing factor of disease.
The inorganic phosphorus and copper levels showed a decrease of 44.01% and 43.67% respectively where as serum calcium level increased by 1.89%, in the clinically affected animals.
In Pakistan an increase in incidence of disease has been noticed every year, where as only one Biochemical profile i.e. Serum Inorganic phosphorus level has been identified for investigation its etiology. The number of other factors like, serum, iron, dextrose, behaviour of R.B. C's. during disease and before seasonal fodders, and soil mineral contents are to be analysed for its detail etiological investigations. Our reserach institutions as well as educational departments are requested to reproduce the disease in healthy pregnant buffaloes for remedial measures, as well as its proper control.

Publisher: 1986Dissertation note: Rabies is a fatal viral disease of all warm blooded animals, including man. Because of its highly fatal nature it is the most notorious and dreaded disease in dogs. The disease in man is characterized by an emotional and neurological disorders with relfex excitability, paralysis and death. The infectious agent of rabies is a neurotropic member of the family Rhabdoviridae found in the nerve tissue, tears, saliva, salivary glands and rarely in other body fluids.
A total of thirty stray dogs and thirty dogs suspected for rabies were included in the present work. From the both groups, the impression smear5were prepared (of hippocampus, cerebellum and mandibular salivary gland) for detection of Negri bodies. Biological test in mice and histopathological changes of bippocampus, cerebellum and mandibular salivary glauds were noted. Out of 30 stray dogs the impression smears of three hippocampus and one cerebellum were doubtful for Negri bodies and all the mandibular salivary glands were negative, for Negri bodies. The biological test in mice was negative for rabies in all stray dogs. The impression smears from thirty dogs suspected for rabies, showed Negri bodies in twelve hippocampus, seven cerebellum and all the mandibular salivary glands were found negative for Negri bodies. Seventeen dogs out of 30 dogs were biological positive for rabies. Histopathological changes were observed in fourteen hippocampus, fourteen cerebellum and ten mandibular salivary glands.

Publisher: 1985Dissertation note: Amongst the various poultry diseases coccidiosis is of paramount importance. Many drugs are commonly used against coccidiosis for prophylactic and therapeutic purposes which are found to be toxic. This study was conducted to see the adverse effect of coccidiostatic sulfa drugs Polycox, Darvisul and. Esb3 on the blood components, liver and kidneys of the chicks. These drugs were given to 70 broiler chicks at 4 weeks of age at therapeutic dose and higher level for 3-2-3 days. Their blood was collected on the 9th day post-medication to see the adverse effects on hematological values.
The coccidiostatic sulfa drugs medication produced severe anemia characterized by decrease of erythrocytic count, leukocytic count, hemoglobin contents and hematocrit values. Heterophils, lymphocytes and monocytes decreased significantly. The coccidiostatic sulfa drugs also effected the maturation of the cells in the bone marrow and produced a significant decrease of immature stages of erythrocytic,granulocytic and thrombocytic series. Erytliroblasts, polychromatic erythrocytes, thromboblast, immature and mature thrombocytes and granuloblasts decreased significantly by coccidiostatic su-fa drugs. The bone marrow smears were chiefly composed of erythrocytes and lymphocytes. The bone marrow was pale and fatty in appearance. This study has shown that changes in the blood picture are airectly related to the maturation of the cells in the bone marrow.
On gross examination liver and kidneys showed haemorrhages and necrosis, while microscopic examination revealed degenerative changes, necrosis, haemorrhages and infiltration of mononuclear cells which were prominent. It was evident that increase in the dose level of coccidiostatic sulfa drugs increased the severity of adverse effects. Esb3 produced less toxic effect than Polycox and Darvisul (containing Suiphaquinoxaline and Diaveridine).

Publisher: 1986Dissertation note: The buffalo (Bulus bubalis) is a triple purpose animal. It provides milk and meat and is extensively used for work in certain parts of the world. It is a good source of fat, protein, vitamins and minerals for human diet. The buffalo milk with its higher fat content is considered by most of its consumero as superior to cow milk.
Gross lsions of the ovaries, oviducts, uteri and cervices, and histopathological changes of the morbid tissues of the ovaries, oviducts, uteri and cervices were studied on the internal genitalia of 150 buffalo heifers. In addition E.coli was isolated and identified from the animals routinely slaughtered at the slaughter house, Lahore, during the months of February and March, 1986. The specimens from each heifer's carcass were collected, labelled, packed in a separate polythene bag and brought to the Pathology laboratory, College of Veterinary Sciences, Lahore in a box containing ice.
The macroscopic lesions recorded from the ovaries and bursae consisted of cystic follicles in 8 (5.3%), par-ovarian cysts in 9 (6%), hypoplasia in 7(4%), ovaro-bursal adhesions in 8(5.3%) cases. The gross lesions of fallopian tubes were hydrosalpinx in 6(4%) cases. The gross lesions of uteri were mucometra 5(3.33%) and haemorrhages were also in 5(3.33%) cases. The cervices revealed no pathological abnormality. Histopathlogical changes confirmed the above mentioned gross pathological changes.
Escherichia coli was isolated from the uterine horns of 31 out of 150 buffalo-heifers. For the isolation of E.coli uterine material was cultured in nutrient broth tubes, - incubated at 37°C overnight. A smear was prepared from each incubated tube, stained and examined for the presence of Gramnegative organisms. The Nutrient broth containing gram-negative organisms were further inoculated on MacConkey's agar media plates and incubated for 24 hours at 37°C. The characteristic circular, opaque, glistening and rosepink colonies of E.coli on this medium were recorded. Biochemical properties of isolated E.coli isolates were studied. The pathogenicity of these isolates was tested in Swiss albino mice intraperito- nially. No pathogenic isolate of E.coli was found out of 31 E.coli isolates and E.coli could not be isolated from the heart blood of these mice when they were killed after eight days.

Publisher: 1992Dissertation note: The investigation was conducted to study the effects of organophosphate insecticide Trich- lorf on (Ditrifon) on the hematology and liver, kidneys, heart and spleen of the broiler chicken. One hundred and twenty day old broiler chicks were reared upto 3 weeks of age, then they were randomly divided into four groups i.e. A, 8, C and D containing 30 chicks in each group. Group A was maintained on afeed containing Ditrifon at dose rate of 400 mg/kg in feed. Group, B was maintained on a feed containing Ditrifon at dose rate of 200 mg/kg in feed. Group C was maintained on a feed containing Ditrifon at dose rate of 100 mg/kg in feed. Group D was kept as control. All the said groups were maintained on said feed for 7 days. The weights of the birds from each group were taken before treatment with Ditrifcon. All the groups were kept under close observation to record signs and symptoms of Ditrifon toxicity upto the end of 4 weeks and 5 weeks of age 15 chicks from each group were slaughtered for the hasmatology (PCV, Hb concen- tration, TEC and TLC) and histopathological studies (liver, kidneys, heart and spleen). The weight of the chicks from each group were taken and recorded before slaughtering.
There was a significant decrease in weight in groups A,E4 and C as compared to control group D.
Antemortem symptoms were recorded throughout the experiment and observed that feed intake of the treated groups was decreased, growth was retarded significantly. The treated birds of Group A and Group B showed dyspnoea, tremors, exhaustion, incoordination, ataxia and paralysis. The treated birds of group C showed no antemortem symptoms.
The main necropsy findings were small hemorrhages through out the body muscles, hepatomegaly, spleenomegaly, enlarged heart, swollen kidneys and gastroenteritis in group A and B, hepatomegaly and gastro enteritis in group C. Haematological alterations were studied in all the groups i.e. A, B, C and D. There was no significant difference found in packed cell volume, hemoglobin concentration, total erythrocytic count amongst all the groups, at both the ages. The total leukocytic count showed a significant increase in group A and B as compared to control group D. No significant increase was noted in group C as compared to group B and no significant increase between 28 and 35 days of age in groups A, B and C was noted.
The main histopathological lesions of liver and kidney included cloudy swelling, necrosis, and leukocytic infiltration in all treated groups i.e. A,B and C. Histopathological lesions o-f spleen included presence of focal areas of necrosis in group A and group B after 28 and 35 days of age. In group C after 28 and 35 days of age the spleens were normal. Histopathological lesions of heart were haemorrhage and cloudy swelling in the myocardium in group A and B after 35 days of age. No lesions were observed in all the treated groups after 28 days of age and in group C after 35 days of age. No changes were observed in liver, heart, spleen and kidneys of group .D (control).

The mean Serum Cholesterol in normal adult females were 179.6 ± 15.54, 174.8 ± 9.54, 177.6 ± 13.42 and 176.8 + 5.12 MG/100 ml in sub groups BC1, BC2 BC3 and respectively. While in hypertensive obese female the mean Serum Cholesterol were 278.4 ± 42.21, 269.8 ± 36.72, 266.6 ± 51.96 and 271.3 ± 45.99 in sub groups B1, B2, B3 and B4 respectively.
These results clearly show that there was significant difference (P < 0.05) present between mean Serum Cholesterbi of individuals in different physiological status. The mean Serum Cholesterol of different age groups of normal and hypertensive obese individuals were not significantly different (P<O.Ol). The mean values of rum Sodium levels in normal adult males were 146.8± 3.42, 145.6 ± 8.29, 147.8 ± 5.01 and 145.6 ± 4.03 mmol/L in sub groups AC1, AC2, AC3 and AC4 respectively. While in hypertensive obese males it was 167.8 ± 8.88 172.1 ± 6.45, 168.6 ± 8.56 and 169.9 ± 9.19 mmol/L in sub groups A1, A, A3 and A4 respectively. The mean Serum Sodium levels in normal adult females were 144.2 ± 7.29, 144.6 ± 7.30, 147.4 ± 4.77 and 147.6 ± 3.28 mmol/L in sub groups BC1, BC2, BC3 and BC4 respectively. While in hypertensive obese females the mean Serum Sodium levels 168.8 + 8.74, 167.4 ± 10.28, 168.6 ± 8.99 and 168.5 ± 11.06 mmol/L in sub groups B1, B2, B3 and B4 respectively.
The results of Serum Sodium levels show that there was significant difference (P <0.05) present between the mean Serum Sodium levels of individuals in different Physiological Status. The mean Serum Sodium level of different age groups of normal and hypertensive obese individuals were not significantly different (P<0.01).
Significant difference (P < 0.05) of Serum Cholesterol of individuals of different socioeconauic classes, different grades of hypertensicn and different degree of deviation fran standard weight were also noted. While in case of Serum Sodium level there was significant difference (P <0.05) in the individuals of different socioeconanic classes and there was no significant difference (P<0.05) in the individuals of different degree of hyperbension and different degree of deviation from standard weight.
The findings of present study will help in the diagnosis and management of hypertension and will prove beneficial for screening Of the cases from general population.
