Title : Immunomodulatory Property Of Urtica Species (Sisno) Material Type: printed text Authors: DR Khanal, Author ; B Piya, Author ; Acharya, M, Author ; UM.Singh, Author Pagination: 228-230 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: The effects of stinging nettle on immune response of broilers were investigated. Thirty birds were divided
into two groups namely treatment and control, each group comprising of 15 birds. Treatment group was fed
with 3% of nettle powder mixed with commercial broiler feed once a week whereas control group received
only commercial broiler feed. All birds were vaccinated against New Castle Disease (ND) and Infectious
Bursal Disease (IBD) with ND vaccine (Fl strain) on Day 7 and IBD vaccine (Intermediate strain) on Day
14, respectively by intraocular route. Growth performances of chicken and antibody titer against NO were
evaluated. Body weight of individual bird of both groups was recorded weekly. Sera were collected at the
end of 5th and 71h week oftrial. The haemagglutination (HA) and haemagglutination inhibition (HI) test were
carried out for ND. The treatment group (1709.64 ± 209.83g) was found to perform better than control group
(1619.33 ± 176.78g) in terms of growth performance as well as antibody titer against ND. A protective level
of antibodies was maintained in treatment group whereas control group showed low level of antibody titer.
This study indicates that nettle supplementation helps to improve immune status besides exhibiting positive
effect on growth performance.Immunomodulatory Property Of Urtica Species (Sisno) [printed text] / DR Khanal, Author ; B Piya, Author ; Acharya, M, Author ; UM.Singh, Author . - [s.d.] . - 228-230 p.

Title : Nettle (Urtica D/0/Ca) Feeding For Augmenting Growth Performance And Carcass Quality Of Pigs Material Type: printed text Authors: DR Khanal, Author ; KP Dhungana, Author ; RP Thakur, Author ; M Yadav, Author ; YL Mukhiya, Author ; Shrestha, S., Author Pagination: 219-222 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: An investigation was carried out in six Pakhribas breed of piglets to study the effect of stinging nettle ( Urtica
dioica) feeding on health status and carcass quality. Six piglets of similar age group (3-4 months old) were
divided into two groups: treatment and control, and each comprising two males and one female. Piglets of
treatment group received 70 parts commercial feed and 30 parts Sisno (nettle) leaves (on wet matter basis)
whereas the control group received only commercial feed for seven months period. All six animals were
weighed and blood and fecal samples were collected at monthly intervals. At the end of the trial, four males
(two from each group) of both treatment and control groups were slaughtered for qualitative and quantitative
assessment of carcass. The trend of weight gain was higher in nettle fed group compared to control.
Furthermore, protein and fat contents were higher in pork of treatment group compared to control. On
sensory evaluation test, majority of the panel members liked the pork of treatment group. Furthermore, the
remaining two females of the trial were kept in the farm as replacement stock; sows oftreatment and control
groups had delivered l 0 and 7 piglets, respectively.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=306 Nettle (Urtica D/0/Ca) Feeding For Augmenting Growth Performance And Carcass Quality Of Pigs [printed text] / DR Khanal, Author ; KP Dhungana, Author ; RP Thakur, Author ; M Yadav, Author ; YL Mukhiya, Author ; Shrestha, S., Author . - [s.d.] . - 219-222 p.

Title : Preparation Of Salmonella Pullorum Colour Antigen And Seroprev Alence Of Pullorum Disease And Fowl Typhoid In Poultry Material Type: printed text Authors: SR Aryal, Author ; UM.Singh, Author ; DR Khanal, Author ; D Karki, Author ; MP Acharya, Author Pagination: 211-214 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Salmonella pullorum colored antigen was prepared using standard Salmonella pullorum freeze dried seed
bacteria (SP 17) brought from Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI), India. The agglutinability of
prepared antigen was compared with the antigen produced at IVRI with known positive and with positive
and negative serum from chicken. The agglutinability, of both antigens, was found to be similar. Using
antigen prepared at Animal Health Research Division, a total of 1280 birds of government and private
poultry of Kathmandu, Tarahara, Parwanipur and Chitawan of above 16 weeks of age. have been screened
for seroprevalence of pullorum disease and fowl typhoid in poultry. However, the specific type of the
disease was not identified as the serological testing does not differentiate the type of disease. Out of total
screened birds Ill (8.67%) were found positive. The entire positive cases Ill (8.67%) of birds were from
Kathmandu Valley.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=304 Preparation Of Salmonella Pullorum Colour Antigen And Seroprev Alence Of Pullorum Disease And Fowl Typhoid In Poultry [printed text] / SR Aryal, Author ; UM.Singh, Author ; DR Khanal, Author ; D Karki, Author ; MP Acharya, Author . - [s.d.] . - 211-214 p.
