Characterization of Staphylococcus aureus isolates from mastitic milk, udder surfaces and milkers' hands from arid and semi arid regions of India for capsular (cap5K and cap8K) and collagen adhesin (cna) genes
Authors: BHATI TARUNA , KATARIA A K
Published: December 2022

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is an important cause of bovine mastitis. The antiphagocytic capsule of bacteria promotes colonization and persistence on mucosal surfaces while the presence of collagen adhesin (cna gene) is associated with bacterial adhesion in mammary tissues; hence both are regarded as important determinants of virulence. In the present study, 197 samples consisting of mastitic milk, milkers' hand swabs and udder surface swabs were collected which yielded 107 S. aureus isolates. These S. aureus isolates (107) from different sources of sampling were characterized for their capsular types targeting cap5K and cap8K genes in a duplex PCR along with amplification of cna gene. Majority of the isolates (67.6%) possessed cap5K gene with a lower percentage (22.9%) of isolates carrying cap8K gene and 9.5% carrying both the genes. Moreover, cap5K gene was predominant in isolates from milkersâ€™ hands (85.7%) while cap8K gene was more common in bovine udder isolates (41.2%). cna gene was observed in 27.6% isolates with highest occurrence in milk isolates (44.8%) compared to udder (37.9%) and milkers' hand (17.2%). cna positive isolates carried cap8K gene (66.7%) and were significantly associated with both cap5k and cap8k genes. In conclusion, the majority of the S. aureus isolates of mastitis obtained from arid and semi arid zones of India possessed the genes for capsule production, and cap5K was the predominant gene. The cna gene for collagen adhesion was observed in fewer isolates with significant association with cap8K gene.

Published: December 2022

Uncoupling proteins (UCP) are carrier proteins that release protons during respiration dissipitating energy in the form of heat. Expression of these genes plays an important role in feed efficiency through regulation of energy balance. Therefore present study was undertaken to study the differential expression of UCP2 and UCP3 gene in feed efficient cattle in comparison to low feed efficient animal. HFX Sahiwal male calves of same age group were selected randomly and divided in to two groups (feed efficient and less feed efficient) on the basis of residual feed intake (RFI) for the experiment. Differential expression analysis of UCP2 and UCP3 revealed significant upregulation of UCP2 gene in calves having less feed efficiency where as UCP3 gene was having non significant effect on residual feed intake.

Published: December 2022

The present study was conducted on a total of 68 Tharparkar cattle (Bos indicus) at Cattle and Buffalo farm (Indian Veterinary Research Institute) from December 2016 to April 2017. The objective was to study the effect of skin and coat characteristics like coat colour, coat score (CS) coat thickness, hair density, hair length, hair diameter and weight of hair coat on growth (live body weights at birth, 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months of age) and milk production (Lactation lengths, lactation milk yield) traits. Physiological parameters studied were skin temperature (ST), rectal temperature (RT) and respiration rate (RR). Animals were divided into 2 groups: light grey (LG) and dark grey (DG), on the basis of coat colour. Higher average body weights were found in light grey animals at 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months of age. An increase in coat score (higher coat score implies rough, long and a more wooly hair coat) tended to have a negative effect on body weight gain as well as on milk production. The average previous lactation yields of LG were higher than DG group. Cattle with lower hair densities (<400 hair/cm2) had higher milk yields than with higher hair densities (>400 hair/cm2). Considering the results of the present study, it can be concluded that skin and coat characteristics can be used as a potential selection tool to improve growth and production potential of cattle especially in tropics.

The woman is perfected
Authors: Thorvik Arne
Published: December 2022

Sylvia Plath var 30 år da hun i 1963 døde i suicid, men hennes særpregede lyrikk har gitt henne en varig plass i litteraturen. Ti år tidligere hadde Plath gjort et alvorlig suicidforsøk, som hun beskriver i romanen The Bell Jar (Glassklokken). Artikkelen tar utgangspunkt i Plaths egne tekster, og viser at psykodynamiske og kognitive modeller er anvendelige for å forstå suicidforsøket og suicidet. Likevel fremstår prosessen som gikk forut for hennes død som kvalitativt annerledes enn prosessen som ledet til forsøket i 1953. Plath ble etter suicidforsøket i 1953 vurdert som ikkepsykotisk i klinisk forstand, men hadde en fiksert forestilling om ikke å ha noen fremtid. I månedene før hun døde beskrev hun fremtidsplaner, samtidig som diktene fra perioden indikerer en realitetsbrist om å bli «perfekt i døden». Kasuistikken illustrerer at suicidale prosesser kan ha ulike ytringsformer og tidsvarigheter på forskjellige tidspunkter hos samme individ. Forståelse av suicidalitet kan ikke bare baseres på generell teoridannelse. Individets verdigrunnlagmå også legges til grunn.

Background. Malnutrition is the biggest problem currently threatening human wellbeing across the world directly affecting one-third of people and occurring in many forms. In developing countries, it expresses itself via stunted growth in children, diseases occurrences and deficiency of vital nutrients required for normal physiological functions. In the perspective of animal production, addressing poor animal protein intake by increasing supply of meat for consumption is a viable option for fighting the menace of malnutrition. Main findings This paper identified malnutrition and hunger as major problems in developing countries and suggested rabbit production as cheaper alternative for increasing protein supply because rabbit production is cheap and can supply affordable meat, it has short gestation interval hence it has potential for high yield per production period, it has superior meat quality and require minimal capital investment for its production compared with other animal production units. Implications. Apart from its roles in food supply; rabbit has strong relevance in bioscience research as model animal in studying pathophysiology of diseases and metabolic dysfunctions of man because of its genetical and physiological closeness to humans. Conclusion. This paper summarized and made cases for re-introduction of rabbit as micro-livestock for meat production and it use as model animal in biological research investigations.

In Cameroon, rural-urban migration is widespread. This paper, therefore, aimed to verify the influence of rural-urban migration on food insecurity in Cameroon. This study makes use of quantitative research design precisely a survey design in which it helps the researcher in gaining insight of the subject matter and familiarity for later investigation using the Cameroon household consumption surveys (ECAM 4, 2014). The dataset has distinctive information on rural-urban migration which was exploited for the composition of a food Insecurity index was also constructed using six indicators; being unable to eat three square meals a day, unable to eat series and tuber every day, unable to eat vegetables every day, unable to eat meat and fish every day, eat good meals only on feast days and unsatisfied with household minimum food needs. The control function approach was used to estimate rural-urban migration and food insecurity. Findings from the empirical indicates that rural-urban migration has a negative. The results also reveal a negative significant relationship between farm investment and food Insecurity in Cameroon. As a result of these findings, it is recommended that there should be an all-inclusive agricultural programme by the government that will engage the farming population to discourage them from further migration from the rural communities.

Published: December 2022

We consider a compact Lie group with bi-invariant metric, coming from the Killing form. In this paper, we study Einstein warped product space, $M = M_1 \times_{f_1} M_2$ for the cases, $(i)$ $M_1$ is a Lie group $(ii)$ $M_2$ is a Lie group and $(iii)$ both $M_1$ and $M_2$ are Lie groups. Moreover, we obtain the conditions for an Einstein warped product of Lie groups to become a simple product manifold. Then, we characterize the warping function for generalized Robertson-Walker spacetime, $(M = I \times_{f_1} G_2, - dt^2 + f_1^2 g_2)$ whose fiber $G_2$, being semi-simple compact Lie group of $\dim G_2>2$, having bi-invariant metric, coming from the Killing form.
Estimates for the polar derivative of a constrained polynomial on a disk
Authors: Milovanović Gradimir V. , Mir Abdullah , Hussain Adil
Published: December 2022

This work is a part of a recent wave of studies on inequalities which relate the uniform-norm of a univariate complex coefficient polynomial to its derivative on the unit disk in the plane. When there is a limit on the zeros of a polynomial, we develop some additional inequalities that relate the uniform-norm of the polynomial to its polar derivative. The obtained results support some recently established Erdős-Lax and Turán-type inequalities for constrained polynomials, as well as produce a number of inequalities that are sharper than those previously known in a very large literature on this subject.

Published: December 2022

Milk fatty acid composition of Murrah buffaloes was determined in present study. Samples were collected from 10 lactating buffaloes and were analysed for fatty acid profile using AOCS official method. Murrah milk fat was having 71.6% saturated fatty acids (SFA), 27.97% unsaturated fatty acids. C16:0, C18:1c, C18:0, C14:0 and C12:0 were the five most abundant fatty acid (82.5% of total fatty acids) in the Murrah milk. Palmitic acid, myristic acid (14:0) and stearic acid (18:0) together constituted approximately 85.8% of saturated fatty acids by weight. Short chain fatty acids (C4:0, C6:0), medium chain fatty acids (C8:0, C10:0, C12:0), and long chain fatty acids (C16:0, C18:0, C16:1, C18:2) were 1.82, 4.56 and 49.96 g/100 g respectively. Mono-unsaturated fatty acid were 26.79% of the fatty acids in milk, mostly oleic acid (18:1). Poly-unsaturated fatty acids constitute about 1.18% by weight of the total fatty acids. Linoleic acid (18:2) and α-linolenic acid (18:3) accounted for 0.88 and 0.30% by weight of the total fatty acids.

Published: December 2022

Systematic studies on expression and characterization of toll like receptors (TLRs) in buffalo and cattle will help to understand the innate immune response specific to each species of animals. TLR4 gene is one of the most studied innate immune receptors which is mainly triggered by lipopolysaccharide. Therefore, the present study was carried out to investigate the mRNA expression and sequence analysis of TLR4 in buffalo in comparison to that of cattle. In vitro expression of TLR4 was assessed by challenging the Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) with bacterial LPS which showed significant increase of TLR4 gene expression (P≤0.01) in buffaloes when compared to cattle. Further the comparison of mRNA sequence of TLR4 of buffalo and cattle revealed 96% similarity with the cattle sequence. The primary structure of protein showed the highest percent of leucine amino acid for both the species of animals. At the same time, the number of Leucine Rich repeats (LRR) of buffalo is varied from those present in cattle TLR4. Alpha helix is the prominent secondary structure, however, there were few amino acid variations between buffalo and cattle in certain regions of TLR4 which altered the three dimensional conformation of TLR4 proteins, this in-turn possibly can influence the binding affinity and interaction with pathogens which may influence the difference in immune response in buffalo when compared to that of cattle.

Published: December 2022

The SPAG11 gene is one of pivotal molecules in reproduction as it takes part in spermatozoa maturation, acquiring motility, capacitation, and egg-sperm interaction as well. The current study was aimed to characterize SPAG11 gene in Indian Murrah bulls through direct DNA sequencing approach. Genomic DNA from Murrah animals were isolated from 130 Murrah bulls and amplified using three sets of forward and reverse primers which were based on reference sequence (Genbank accession no. AC_000164.1) of Bos taurus covering entire coding region of SPAG11B gene. The PCR products of 563, 340 and 373, bp covering exons 1 to 3 were subjected to sequencing and subsequently ClustalW analysis revealed the substitution at 34 positions and a single stretch of 22 bp deletion in comparison to the Bos taurus reference sequence. Total seven novel SNPs were observed as two in the coding region and five in 5ˈUTR. However, only one of SNPs resulted in amino acid substitution viz. p.1279 arginine to tryptophan in translated protein in Murrah buffaloes. Sequence alignment and homology across species for the targeted nucleotide sequence of SPAG11 gene in Murrah bulls was done by nucleotide BLAST (NCBI) that showed maximum identity of 97% with mRNA of Bos taurus and Capra hircus followed by 96% homology with Bos indicus and Bison bison and 95% homology with Ovis aries and Bos mutus.

Published: December 2022

The present experiment was carried out to study the influence of feeding linseed and linseed oil on feed conversion and milk production efficiency (gross efficiency of milk production and gross protein efficiency) in lactating Murrah buffaloes. For this purpose, 18 lactating Murrah buffaloes were grouped in control (T0), T1 and T2 (06 animals in each) on basis of average live weight (516.55±9.53 kg), milk yield (7.50±0.3 kg), fat percentage in milk (6.70±0.29%) and lactation stage (2 weeks after parturition). Murrah buffaloes in all three groups were fed a same ration, consist of available green fodder, wheat straw and concentrate (69.03:30.97; roughage: concentrate ratio) to fulfill their nutrient requirement for maintenance and milk production of experimental Murrah buffaloes. In the treatment group (T1) 250 g/d linseed oil and 570 g/d whole linseed (T2) was supplemented with basal ration. The experimental feeding to the Murrah buffaloes was started 15 days after parturition and continues for 60 days. However, the experimental data were taken for the period of 6 months (i.e. 180 days). A 7 days digestion trial was conducted at the last of feeding experiment to know the digestibility of nutrient. The milk production, 4% FCM yield, SCM yield, ECM yield, change in body weight, dry matter intake and roughage to concentrate ration didn’t differ significantly between groups. No significant difference was observed in nutrient intake (TDN and CP) between groups. The digestibility of organic nutrient also didn’t differ significantly among experimental groups. The average gross efficiency of milk production was 26.51% and average gross protein efficiency of milk production was 36.49% and didn’t differ significantly. The average feed conversion efficiency as milk yield (kg) / DMI (kg) was 0.61, FCM yield(kg) / DMI (kg) was 0.86, average ECM yield (kg) / DMI (kg) was 0.89 and average SCM yield (kg) / DMI (kg) was 0.85 in lactating Murrah buffaloes. It was concluded that feeding linseed and linseed oil in lactating Murrah buffaloes didn’t affect the milk production efficiency (gross efficiency of milk production and gross protein efficiency) and feed conversion efficiency.

Several Acts and One Law as an Impulse for Reviving European (Framework) Laws
Authors: Křepelka Filip
Published: December 2022

The short titles of several recent EU regulations or proposals contain the words ‘act’ and ‘law’. The latter reminds EU legal scholars, especially those using different EU languages, that the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe envisaged turning regulations into European laws, and directives into European framework laws. We propose to discuss their revival in terms of the so-called legislative acts, i.e., a category retained by the Lisbon Treaty, which otherwise avoids such a statist terminology, deeming it too sensitive. They are passed by the European Parliament, which is a directly elected body. A comparative look shows the difference in parliamentary statutes and instruments adopted by the executives of many nations in their languages with different nouns. This terminology also accommodates the recent preference for regulations, including dozens of them being transformed from directives. The two terms distinguished by a modifier reflect their relationship to each other.

Authors: Gregor Martin
Published: December 2022

Údajné manželstvo medzi rímskym vojvodcom Marcom Antoniom a egyptskou kráľovnou Kleopatrou by mohlo predstavovať vynikajúci námet na prípadovú štúdiu zo starovekého manželského práva, ktorá by bola navyše spestrená o právne eventuality priamo zo života. Tento článok sa pokúsi aspoň čiastočne o rozpracovanie uvedenej myšlienky. Na základe historického a filologického výskumu predostrieme právnu a romanistickú analýzu ich vzájomného spolužitia, ktoré vykazovalo prvok medzinárodnosti, pričom zároveň poukážeme na zopár právnych inštitútov spojených s ich príbehom (napr. darovanie štátneho územia, právny režim bigamie a ďalšie otázky).
Share of Intellectual Property Rights on Innovation Activities in Creative Industries in Slovak and Czech Republic
Authors: Majdúchová Helena , Štetka Peter
Published: December 2022

The aim of this paper is to identify specific problems of intellectual property rights protection in creative industries and to identify the current state of this protection in the Slovak and Czech Republic. The results presented in this paper are based on the official statistics of the Czech and Slovak Statistical Offices, which conduct two-year cycles of surveys of innovative activities of companies. In June 2020 data for 2016-2018 were published. A harmonized Eurostat model questionnaire was used for data collection by all EU countries, thus ensuring comparability of the data gathered. These results are interpreted with the ambition to suggest appropriate solutions. The proposed paper is also reflecting the current state of digitalization and digital transformation currently identified in creative industries and is raising relevant questions, such as: How can intellectual property rights be enforced in the digital environment to prevent infringements of intellectual property rights and to limit the legitimate use of copyright exceptions? How to find a balance between strong IPR protection and the ability of businesses to exploit the creative potential of the knowledge economy? How can consumer and competitor rights be transferred from analogue to digital context? Do we need new categories of intellectual property rights? Can we create a system of rights that ensures that the scope and duration of rights do not create obstacles to the expansion of creativity?

Authors: Jantová Martina , Gubíniová Katarína , Bartáková Gabriela
Published: December 2022

The main goal of the paper is to evaluate the product recall activities from the perspective of customers and retail representatives. To achieve this goal, primary quantitative research has been carried out, which examines consumers' attitudes towards the environmentally responsible activities of organizations and towards activities supporting the recall of unnecessary products. The survey was performed between November and December 2020 and involved 4,888 Slovak consumers. Respondents were selected to meet a representative sample for gender, age, education, size of residence, and income. Clearly, there is room for improving the awareness of ultimate customer on the market. The fact that quite a high number of customers would be willing to behave desirably, however they “forget”, appears positive. It is therefore a task of a number of entities involved in the modern marketing management (for-profit organisations, non-profit organisations, civil initiatives, educational institutions at several levels, state apparatus, etc.) to sufficiently communicate the purpose of the reverse distribution in order to clarify the role of the driving force for ultimate customers.
