    Bir Avrasya porsuğunda (Meles meles) rastlanan parazitler
    (Ankara Üniversitesi, 2019-06-14) Umur, Şinasi; Bölükbaş, Cenk Soner; Açıcı, Mustafa; Ateş, Celil; Gürler, Ali Tümay; Veteriner Fakültesi
    Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Parazitoloji Laboratuvarına getirilen, trafik kazasında ölmüş bir erkek porsuk parazitolojik açıdan sistematik olarak incelenmiştir. Parazitolojik inceleme sonucu porsuğun üç ektoparazit ve üç endoparazit türü ile enfekte olduğu saptandı. Ektoparazit olarak bir pire (Paraceras melis) ve iki kene türü (Ixodes ricinus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus), endoparazit olarak bir sestod (Mesocestoides melesi) ve iki nematod türü (Aonchotheca putorii, Molineus patens) belirlendi. Türkiye’de parazitlerin tümü için porsuk yeni konak, M. melesi ise Türkiye faunası için ilk bildirimdir.

    Occurrence of Neophilopterus tricolor (Burmeister, 1838) on a black stork (Ciconia nigra) in the Kızılırmak Delta, Turkey
    (Ankara Üniversitesi, 2021-03-31) Açıcı, Mustafa; Eren, Gökhan; Özkoç, Ömral Ünsal; Öztürk, Mehmet; Bölükbaşı, Cenk Soner; Veteriner Fakültesi
    A dead black stork (Ciconia nigra) was found by an a birdwatcher in the Kızılırmak Delta near Samsun, Turkey and brought to the Parasitology Laboratory of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Ondokuz Mayis University for ectoparasitological examination in December 2019. During the examination, 45 specimens of chewing lice (21 males, 18 females and 6 nymphs) were collected. All of the specimens were identified as Neophilopterus tricolor (Burmeister, 1838) (Ischnocera: Philopteridae). Neophilopterus tricolor is reported from the black stork (C. nigra) for the first time in Turkey.

    The effects of fumaric and malic acids on the in vitro true digestibility of some alternative feedstuffs for ruminants
    (Ankara Üniversitesi, 2020-03-03) Genç, Buğra; Salman, Mustafa; Bölükbaş, Bora; Kaya, İsmail; Açıcı, Mustafa; Veteriner Fakültesi
    The aim of this study was to determine the effects of the addition of different amounts of fumaric acid (FA) and malic acid (MA) to the leaves of Robinia pseudoacacia (Black locust, acacia), Prunus laurocerasus (cherry laurel), Quercus cerris (oak), and Camellia sinensis (tea factory wastes, TFW), to improve their value as alternative feeds for ruminants. The parameters examined were the in vitro true digestibility of feed (IVTDAs fed), dry matter (IVTDDM), organic matter (IVTDOM), neutral detergent fiber (IVTDNDF) and count of protozoans. The digestibility experiments were performed with a DAISY incubator system. Organic acids were not added in the control group and 0.1%, 0.2% or 0.3% FA or MA were added to the experimental groups. Each treatment was replicated 6 times. Samples were incubated for 48 hours. Fumaric acid significantly reduced (P<0.01) all digestibility values of R. pseudoacacia leaves. When FA was applied at 0.1% to C. sinensis factory wastes, the IVTDOM increased significantly (P <0.05), with the same effect observed for Q. cerris (P<0.01). However, for the addition of 0.1% FA, IVTDAs Fed, IVTDDM and IVTDNDF values decreased significantly (P<0.01). Separately, malic acid did not have a significant effect on the in vitro true digestibility values determined in this study (P>0.05). Rumen protozoan counts decreased for both organic acid applications compared to counts in the fresh rumen contents. Because 0.1% fumaric acid increased the IVTDOM values of both C. sinensis factory wastes and Q. cerris leaves they can be considered potential alternative feed sources for ruminants.
