Pages: 1 - 4
Abstract: Diagnostic techniques play a crucial role in veterinary medicine for accurate disease identification, treatment planning, and monitoring of animal health. This review article explores the latest advancements in diagnostic tools and technologies used in veterinary medicine, focusing on imaging modalities, molecular diagnostics, and point-of-care testing. The first section discusses the advancements in imaging modalities, including digital radiography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasonography. These technologies have revolutionized veterinary diagnostics by providing detailed anatomical and functional information, aiding in the diagnosis of various conditions across different animal species and specialties. The second section delves into molecular diagnostics, particularly the applications of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and next generation sequencing (NGS) in veterinary medicine. PCR allows for the detection of specific genetic material, aiding in the diagnosis of infectious diseases and the identification of genetic variants. NGS enables comprehensive genome sequencing, facilitating the diagnosis of inherited diseases and personalized treatment approaches. The third section focuses on point-of-care testing (POCT) in veterinary medicine. POCT offers rapid and on-site diagnostic capabilities, improving the efficiency of veterinary practice. Common point-of-care tests such as blood chemistry analyzers, ateral flow assays, and molecular POCT devices are discussed, along with recent technological advancements that enhance accuracy, speed, and accessibility. Overall, these advancements in diagnostic techniques have transformed veterinary medicine, enabling early disease detection, precise diagnosis, and targeted treatment. The integration of imaging modalities, molecular diagnostics, and point-of-care testing has enhanced the quality of veterinary care, leading to improved animal health outcomes and client satisfaction However, challenges such as cost, accessibility, and standardization of diagnostic techniques remain. The ongoing development of novel technologies, increased collaboration among researchers and practitioners, and advancements in data analysis and interpretation are expected to further enhance diagnostic capabilities in veterinary medicine. This review article provides valuable insights into the recent advancements in veterinary diagnostic techniques, highlighting their impact on animal health and the future directions of the field

- Migratory Birds and Resident Birds of Sikkim Himalaya
Authors: Durga Kumar Pradhan
Pages: 5 - 10
Abstract: The Sikkim Himalaya is the potential region for the fauna and flora which underpin the roles in economic, social, cultural and ecological aspects. The fauna of Sikkim is basically significant for the ecological network which are blended with the mountain ecology having the mountains' greatest value of the sources of major rivers, and many smaller ones. These play significant role for capturing moisture from air masses and the precipitation reflecting the unique climatic condition. Thus, the mountain ecosystem of Sikkim is an important factor for the biodiversity. Such ecological niche of Sikkim in context to the migratory and resident birds of Sikkim studied. The experiences of one of tribe of Sikkim, Lepcha, on the chirping sound of birds were fascinating who lives in close proximity with nature and agriculture production. This community uses these experiences for the agriculture production and management. The sounds of birds are considered as indicators of threats, climate or environment change etc from their experiences. Hence, this paper presented the study of migratory and resident birds of the Sikkim Himalaya of Dzongu where on the experiences of signals of these birds are included with respect to the biodynamic activities of agriculture. The observations of 25 birds, Strix aluco; Cuculus poliocephalus, Taccocuales chenaultii, Pericrocotus flammeus; Micropternus brachyurus, Nisaetus nipalensis, Psarisomus dalhousiae, Garrulax leucolophus; Eudynamys scolopaceus; Lophophorus impejanus; Trochalopteron affine; Apus melba; Psilopogon asiaticus; Myophonus caeruleus; Ketupa zeylonensis; Orthotomus sutorius ; Tragopan satyra; Grus virgo; Cacomantis merulinus; Cuculus canorus; Psilopogon virens; Bubo bubo, Parus monticolus; Cuculus of Dzongu, Sikkim. The enumerated list contains local names, habitat, characters, altitude and biodynamic utilities of migratory as well as resident birds.

- Animal Welfare and Technology
Authors: Butta Singh Rainu
Pages: 11 - 15
Abstract: Animal welfare is a critical aspect of veterinary practice and research, aiming to ensure the physical and psychological well-being of animals. Technological innovations have played a significant role in advancing animal welfare by providing enhanced monitoring, improved feeding systems, and environmental enrichment devices. This review article examines the contributions of technology, specifically sensor-based monitoring systems, automated feeding systems, and environmental enrichment devices, to enhance animal welfare in veterinary practice and research. Sensor-based monitoring systems enable real-time tracking of an animal's health, activity levels, and environmental conditions. By detecting early signs of health issues and facilitating better management of chronic conditions, these systems promote animal well-being. Automated feeding systems ensure consistent and precise feeding, preventing underfeeding or overfeeding and allowing tailored nutrition to meet specific dietary needs. Environmental enrichment devices, such as puzzle feeders and interactive toys, offer mental stimulation, prevent behavioural issues, and improve the overall quality of life for animals. Through case studies and research findings, this article highlights the positive impact of technology on animal welfare. Scientific evidence supports the effectiveness of sensor-based monitoring systems, automated feeding systems, and environmental enrichment devices in enhancing animal well-being. However, challenges and limitations related to the use of technology in animal welfare must also be acknowledged. The article concludes by discussing future directions and emerging trends in the field, emphasizing the potential for further advancements in technology to continue improving animal welfare. Overall, technological innovations have significantly contributed to enhancing animal welfare in veterinary practice and research, ensuring better health outcomes and improved quality of life for animals

- Review on Fibrolytic Microorganisms and Their Applications
Authors: Abayineh Amanuel
Pages: 23 - 33
Abstract: The primary renewable feedstock option on the planet is lignocellulosic biomass, which is made up of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin.. Lignocellulolytic microbes are categorized in to cellulolytic, xylanolytic and Lignolytic based on the plant material they degrade./Animal feed digestion and industrial bioconversion processes both heavily rely on the functioning of lignocellulolytic microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, whose enzymes may break down lignocellulosic biomass. Lignocellulolytic micro-organisms are found in various habitats such as rumen, soils and insect gut. The applications of lignocellulolytic micro-organisms and their enzymes are focused on various industries including pulp and paper, textiles, food and beverages, biofuels and animal feed processing. In order to establish more sustainable and economically competitive methods of production, new, enhanced, and versatile lignocellulolytic microorganisms and their enzymes are currently required. Since lignocellulose is the most abundant biopolymer available on earth, more efforts should be encouraged to investigate lignocellulolytic micro-organisms and their enzymes to convert this biomass into useful products in various industrial bioprocessing. In order to enhance the use of lignocellulolytic microbes, knowing their sources and application is very important.
