  1. 6. Metabolomic study of the effects of perfluorinated compounds on the fatty acid metabolism during the development of Gallus gallus domesticus

    Kandidat-uppsats, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Viktoria Wigh; [2017]
    Nyckelord :PFOS; PFOA; fatty acids; β-oxidation; domestic chicken; energy metabolism; GC-MS;

    Sammanfattning : Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) are two commonly found contaminants associated with various manufacturing products, such as firefighting foam, non-stick coatings, electronics and water repellants. These compounds are persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic and may therefore pose a serious health risk to living organisms. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Assessment of ventricular morphology using echocardiography in Ornate tinamous (Nothoprocta ornata) and domestic chickens (Gallus domesticus)

    Nyckelord :Anesthesia; cardiac function; isoproterenol; left ventricular wall thickness; Ornate Tinamou;

    Sammanfattning : The Ornate Tinamou (Nothoprocta ornata), an ancient bird, has adapted to life at high altitude (>2.400 m.a.s. LÄS MER

  4. 8. The Importance of the TSHR-gene in Domestic Chicken

    Kandidat-uppsats, Biologi; Tekniska högskolan

    Författare :Hanna Johnsen; [2014]
    Nyckelord :Domestication; Landraces Chicken; thyroid stimulation hormone TSH ; thyroid stimulation hormone receptor TSHR ; reproductive cycle;

    Sammanfattning : Thyroid hormones are known to be important in several processes in chicken, such as growth, metabolism and reproductive system. In previous studies the thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR)-gene has been identified as a target for a selective sweep in commercial breeds of chicken such as broiler and White Leghorn.

  5. 9. Marker generation for Fine Mapping a QTL in the chicken

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Författare :Ahlgren Elisabeth; [2014]
    Nyckelord :Behavior; Red Junglefowl; Single Nucleotide Polymorphism marker; Tonic immobility; White Leghorn; QTL analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to design and test five SNP markers in an inbred chicken cross between Red Junglefowl and domestic White Leghorn of the 8th generation. The markers lie in a region affecting the tonic immobility behaviour which differs significantly between the two species. LÄS MER
