Breast cancer
Abstract
Breast cancer develops if breast cells multiply and expand out of control,forming a mass of tissue known as tumor. A lump or mass is created when cancerous cells proceeds to multiply more quickly than healthy cells. These cells might invade nearby lymph nodes or any other body areas through your breast and spread or metastasis there. Breast cancer can start as cells in milk production duct or as glandular tissues termed as lobules( invasive lobular carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma ). There are 5 stages of cancer at stage 0 tumor is non invasive at stage 1 cancer cells spread to neighbouring breast tissues at stage 2 the tumor size range from 2 to 5 centimeter at stage 3 cancer might expand to local lymph nodes as well as tissues at stage 4 cancer spread to different organs like brain, bones, and liver. Treatment of cancer include surgery, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy and immunotherapy

Poultry management in summer
Abstract
In summer, birds undergo stress leading to immunosuppression and disease outbreaks causing economic losses. Heat stress has harmful impacts on poultry production and welfare. Proper summer management includes shed, water, feed, and health management to maintain the environmental temperature within the required range, ensure adequate clean and cool water supply, compensate for reduced feed intake, and prevent disease outbreaks through vaccination, effective coccidiosis programs, good biosecurity, and sanitation.

Use of Poultry Manure as an alternative of soyabean in Fish Feed
Abstract
This article discusses the potential of using poultry manure as an alternative to soybean meal in fish feed. Poultry manure is a cost-effective and nutrient-rich ingredient that can help reduce the environmental impact of the poultry industry. Studies have shown that replacing soybean meal with poultry manure in fish feed can result in comparable growth performance for fish. However, there are also challenges associated with using poultry manure in fish feed, such as variable nutrient content, contaminants, and processing difficulties. Proper processing and utilization of poultry manure can improve its nutritional quality and make it a sustainable and cost-effective ingredient in fish feed. Further research is needed to optimize the use of poultry manure for different fish species.

Antibiotic Resistance in Poultry and farm Animals and its Solution
Abstract
This article discusses the issue of antibiotic resistance in poultry birds and other farm animals, primarily due to the overuse and misuse of antibiotics in the agricultural industry. The article explains how this practice has led to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in animals, which can then be transmitted to humans, and how it has affected the food chain. Additionally, the article explores the causes of antibiotic resistance in farm animals, including overuse, misuse, the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and the lack of diversity in farming practices. It also suggests possible solutions such as reducing antibiotic use, promoting animal health, improving farming practices, and alternatives to antibiotics such as probiotics, prebiotics, antimicrobial peptides, hybrid Peptides and phytogenics

Vaccine against Protozoan Parasites: A Failure
Abstract
Protozoan parasites are unicellular, eukaryotic and heterotrophic organisms which get entry in the appropriate host after responding to the cues that indicate the presence of host. These cues can be generated by the host itself, any byproduct of the host or the plants consumed by the host. The host range of protozoan parasites i.e., Plasmodium, Trypanosoma, Leishmania, Babesia, Theileria, Giardia etc. ranges from companion animals to bovines and humans posing a serious threat to these species. Among these, Plasmodium causes a life-threatening disease in human and is transmitted by the bite of Anopheles mosquito. Trypanosoma and Leishmania are responsible for causing African Sleeping Sickness, Chagas disease and tropical and visceral Leishmaniasis. Similarly in bovines, Babesia causes hemoglobinuria which may lead to death of animal. It is the need of hour to control these deadly protozoan parasites through effective control strategies i.e., vaccination. The development of DNA vaccines is considered as a dynamic field of research and have been used in the last 15 years offering a new alternative for the control of protozoal infections. Vaccination against these deadly pathogens have not been proved effective yet because of multiple reasons including immunological non-responsiveness to individual vaccine antigens, antigenic variation and polymorphism, immune deviation because of maternal immunity, parasite-induced apoptosis of immune effector and memory cells and alterations of dendritic cell function.

Rabies; a potential human threat
Abstract
Rabies is a acute viral and fatal disease of carnivores, bats and also of mammals. It is zoonotic disease. Rabies transmit mostly by rabid bites. Rabies causes central nervous system disorder. Diagnosis is based on the clinical signs and symptoms with history of dog bite and laboratory tests are also required for conformation. Vaccination of dogs and wild animals against rabies prevents its transmission. In rabies mostly supportive treatment is given to patient but two type of treatment (Pre exposure treatment and post exposure treatment) are also given to healthy and infected individual. Rabies cause infection in most of the developing countries of Asia. In most of the Europe countries rabies has been eradicated due to their strict policies and vaccinations. In poor counties of Africa rabies has high death ratio and mostly affecting children and rural community.

Overview of Feline Mammary Tumors
Abstract
After skin tumors and lympho-sarcoma, mammary cancer ranks as the third most common type of cancer in felines and has a high fatality ratio. That’s why early diagnosis, intensive surgical treatment, and regular postoperative follow-up exams are required to increase animal life. Mammary tumors can affect both male and female cats but prevalence is high in queens. In this article different sizes of mammary tumors, their surgical removal, and chemotherapeutic agents to prevent them are studied.

Use of Green-synthesized Silver Nanoparticles against Mastitis
Abstract
Mastitis or udder inflammation is the arch nemesis of the dairy industry. Mastitis serves as the main profit killer for dairy farmers. In the past, this problem was dealt with antibiotics that easily treated mastitis by killing its causative pathogens. Quite recently this nuisance has become even more problematic as the bacteria began to gain antibiotic resistance against the antibiotics that were used to treat mastitis. This called for use of an immediate alternative like nanoparticles to kill the bacteria. A cheaper and better way to get these nanoparticles was found to be by extracting them from plant products.
