The present experiment was conducted to evaluate the ameliorative efficacy of Erythrina variegata leaf powder (EVLP) and Spirulina platensis (SP, Blue green algae) as feed additives on antioxidant parameters following simultaneous administration of imidacloprid for 60 days in white leghorn cockerels. Forty two white leghorn cockerels weighing 250-275 g of 4-6 months age were selected for this study. Cockerels were divided equally and randomly into six groups T1 to T6 and fed on as control (T1), Spirulina platensis @ 0.2% (T2); imidacloprid @ 50 ppm (T3); Spirulina platensis @ 0.2% plus imidacloprid @ 50 ppm (T4); Erythrina variegata leaf powder (1%) (T5); and Erythrina variegata leaf powder (1%) plus imidacloprid @ 50 ppm (T6) for 60 days. Blood samples were collected at 0, 30 and 60 days interval, tissue samples were collected at the end of the study. A significant (P<0.05) decline in RBC catalase and SOD, and an increase in LPO in RBC, liver, kidney and testes was observed in imidacloprid treated group which returned to normalcy following simultaneous medication with SP and EVLP in T4 and T6 groups after 60 days. Findings of this study indicated that administration of imidacloprid @ 50 ppm in feed for 60 days produced oxidative stress which was ameliorated following simultaneous dietary supplementation of Spirulina platensis and Erythrina variegate @ 0.2% and 1%, respectively. Further, Spirulina platensis was more potent in reversing the oxidative stress induced toxic effects in cockerels.Keywords

The aim of the study was focused to find out the effect on haematological and biochemical parameters following administration of propofol in combination with fentanyl citrate. The present study was carried out on six apparently healthy mongrel dogs of either sex weighing approximately 15-20 kg. Each dog was subjected to three different treatments, and each treatment lasted for one day. An interval of 8 days between two treatments was provided. The haematological parameters like PCV, haemoglobin, total erythrocyte and total leucocyte counts showed non-significant decrease in all the three treatment groups. Significant (P<0.05) increase in neutrophil count and decrease in lymphocyte count was noticed in all the treatment groups. The eosinophils and monocytes did not show any significant changes. The biochemical parameters like glucose and total bilirubin showed significant increase (P<0.05) in all the three treatment groups. The alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and blood urea nitrogen were increased non-significantly while serum total protein and serum creatinine revealed no significant changes in all the three treatment groups. The haemato-biochemical changes induced by propofol and fentanyl citrate as pre-anaesthetics were of transient in nature and suggestive of least temporary alterations in liver and kidney functions. Thus, it is concluded that propofol in combination with fentanyl citrate as pre-anaesthetics can be used safely for induction of general anaesthesia in dogs with minimal or no side effects.Keywords

This paper tries to document the stylised facts of the business cycle relating to prices (WPI Core & WPI) & inflation with respect to output for India from April 2005 to October 2016 using various univariate trend-cycle decomposition techniques. Both prices (WPI Core&WPI)&inflation are countercyclical with respect to output. In addition, using static cross-correlations we observe that prices (WPI Core & WPI) lead output by one month & inflation leads output by two months. Further, we apply Granger causality in the frequency domain and obtain a unidirectional causal relationship from WPI Core to output in the medium run (3 months to 12 months) to the long run (beyond 12 months). We also obtain a bidirectional causality between WPI & output as well as inflation & output in the medium run to the long run.Keywords
