Publication Open Access Case report: Bronchoesophageal fistula in mixed breed dog(2015) Phingphol Charoonrut; Nattapon Riengvirodkij; Chanon Kamta; Mahidol University. Faculty of Veterinary Scienceand bronchodilators did not improve his clinical signs. Moreover, the regurgitation with foamy content was developed. The esophagoscopy and contrast radiography with barium sulfate solution were performed for the definite diagnosis. The bronchoesophageal fistula... with secondary pneumonia at the left caudal lung lobe was diagnosed. The specific treatment for the bronchoesophageal fistula was performed by the surgical correction via thoracotomy.Publication Open Access Effects of feeding chitooligosaccharide on growth performance, immunity and serum composition in goats(2012) Chowalit Nakthong; Sarawut Taksinoros; Witsanu Wongsawaong; Mahidol University. Faculty of Veterinary ScienceA total of 15 female goats (28.5 ± 0.5 kg) were employed to determine the effects of feeding commercial prebiotic (Nuclear C.O.S), a type of chitooligosaccharide (COS) on growth performance, immunity and serum composition. A complete randomizedPublication Open Access Effect of Sex on Growth Curve, Production Performance and Carcass Quality of Cherry Valley Ducks(2018) Chanwit Kaewtapee; Kriengkrai Prahkarnkaeo; Chaiyapoom Bunchasak; Kasetsart University. Faculty of Agriculture. Department of Animal Science; Mahidol University. Faculty of Veterinary Science. Department of Clinical Sciences and Public HealthThe objective of this study was to determine the effect of sex dimorphism on growth curve, production performance and carcass quality of Cherry valley ducks. Fifteen male and fifteen female ducks were randomly kept in an individual metabolic cage... for male and female ducks. A two-sample t-test was used to compare the effect of sex dimorphism on production performance and carcass quality. The results showed that there were significant differences (P<0.05) in body weight (BW), average daily gainPublication Open Access Treatment of laryngeal paralysis in captive wild felids; Arytenoid lateralization technique(2012) Phingphol Charoonrut; Sukanya Manee-in; Ruangrat Buddhirongawat; Siriporn Tangsudjai; Nareerat Sungchachai; Tipapan Parnluck; Luxsana Pasittichai; Mahidol University. Faculty of Veterinary Sciencetigers and 2 lion with bilateral laryngeal paralysis were included. The surgical procedure was performed by left unilateral arytenoid lateralization in all animals. The better clinical signs after operation were shown in 7 animals except 1 lionPublication Open Access Retinal lesion in a Toxoplasma gondii seropositive Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris) in a private zoo, Kanchanaburi Province(2015) Areerat Kongcharoen; Ruangrat Buddhirongawatr; Siriporn Tungsudjai; Nareerat Sangkhachai; Poonyapat Sedwisai; Thekhawet Weluwanarak; Tatiyanuch Chamsai; Mahidol University. Faculty of Veterinary Scienceantigen. The serological test for T. gondii infection was performed by latex agglutination test. The seropositive tiger was a 9 years old female tiger which ophthalmic examination also shown a retinal lesion, a spot of hyperreflective area in right... as a potential cause. Further study should be performed to confirm the infection and to identify risk factors for prevention.Publication Open Access Influence of dietary protein and energy levels on sow backfat thickness(2012) Surasak Jittakhot; Dusit Laohasinnarong; Kampon Kaeoket; Mahidol University. Faculty of Veterinary Science. Department of Pre-clinical and Applied Animal Science; Mahidol University. Faculty of Veterinary Science. Department of Clinical Sciences and Public HealthThe objective of the present study was to determine the influences of dietary protein and energy levels on sow backfat thickness. The study was conducted by randomly measured backfat thickness in both pregnant and lactating stages of 10,401 sows from 7 commercial herds in Thailand. The pregnant sow diets contained 14.4% crude protein (CP) and 3,346 kcal metabolizable energy (ME)/kg. The lactating sow diet contained 18.8% CP and 3,660 kcal ME/kg. The percentage of dietary protein was positively correlated with backfat thickness (r = 0.036, P < 0.01) and the metabolizable energy of the diet was positively correlated (r = 0.053, P < 0.01). Upon, stepwise method of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the percentage of dietary crude fat (X, %) was a key factor affecting the thickness of sow backfat (Y, mm) with statistical significance. The regression equation was; Y = 14.4 + (0.2X), (R2 = 0.009, P < 0.01). Conclusion, a major nutritional factor that response for changing of sow backfat thickness was the dietary energy in sow diet.Publication Open Access Heavy Infestation of the Sticktight Flea (Echidnophaga gallinacea) in Dog(2009) Thekhawet Weluwanarak; Siriporn Tangsudjai; Seni Ngamloephochit; Tanasak Changbunjong; Mahidol University.

Department of Clinical Science and Public HealthThe present review will discuss the information of nuclear scintigraphic examination in veterinary medicine. The main focus is on the introduction of nuclear medicine procedures in animal patients and describes conventional nuclear medicine (brain scintigraphy, bone scintigraphy, thyroid scintigraphy, inflammation and oncological scintigraphy). Single photon emission scintigraphy (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) have recently been developed using for nuclear scintigraphic examination to provide functional and physiological imaging, the quantification of biochemical processes, molecular interactions, and neoplasias. Radiopharmaceuticals or radionuclides have a longer physical half-life allowing that need longer acquisition times used for specific investigation purposes. In veterinary medicine, scintigraphy can be the basis of a sensitive, specific and non-invasive diagnostic method, which information has been applied to support the diagnostic process and treatment planning for animal patients.Publication Open Access Loop-mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP): An Alternative Molecular Diagnosis(2011) Dusit Laohasinnarong; Mahidol University.
