The basis principal to prevent milk fever is to maintain a high plasma Ca level at the time of parturition to overcome the sudden high demand for Ca. For that hormonal therapy and dietary manipulations are successful. Among them, hormonal therapy does not seem to work in the field as it needs an accurate prediction of the date of parturition for the administration of hormones. The dietary manipulation may be the best and easiest way to prevent milk fever in this regard. The supplementation of anionic diet salts brings about a mild acidosis in the body thus increasing the rapid absorption of Ca through intestine and bone resorption.Thus the extracellular level of Ca increases which helps in coping with the demand of Ca particularly in the early lactation. To be more sure of prevention of the disease, anionic salts should be supplemented with high Ca diet so that sufficient amount of Ca is absorbed through intestine. Among the anionic salts, MgSo4 may be used commonly as it is more palatable to the animals and cheap. However, ammonium salts such as NH4Cl and NH4SO4 although effective are less palatable. A useful tool is to measure the urine pH i.e. pH 5.5-6.5 to monitor anion cation balance in diet.

Antibiotic growth promoter have played a critical role in contributing to the economic effectiveness of animal production as feed supplements at sub-therapeutic doses, to improve growth and feed conversion efficiency, and to prevent infections However, injudicious use of antibiotic growth promoter leads to development of antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic residue posing a potential threat to human health.
Organic acids, probiotics, prebiiotic, enzymes, phytobiotics, bacteriophage etc. are effective antibiotic alternatives to promote animal growth performance in poultry, swine, and beef and dairy production.
Colibacillosis refers to any localized or systemic infection caused entirely or partly by avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC), It manifests in diverse ways, including as acute fatal septicemia, subacute pericarditis, peritonitis, and cellulitis.
It is frequently associated with immunosuppressive diseases such as Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (Gumboro Disease) in chickens or Haemorrhagic Enteritis in turkeys, or in young birds that are immunologically immature.
Aflatoxicosis is poisoning that results from the ingestion of aflatoxins in contaminated food or feed.
Aflatoxins are highly toxic and carcinogenic mycotoxins produced by Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus and A. nomius.
Poultry feeds and ingredients are vulnerable to fungal growth and aflatoxins formation and these toxins are highly toxic to livestock, poultry and people.
Antibiotic usage for disease prevention is permitted in all large poultry-producing countries. Antibiotics are applied for the treatment of intestinal infections such as colibacillosis, necrotic enteritis, and other diseases generally caused by Salmonella, E. coli, or Clostridium spp

PRESENTATION ON CHEMICAL POISONS IN FOOD HYGIENE, SAFETY & SANITATION BY STEP...StephenMusoma
Chemical poisons include chemical hazards or chemical food contaminants and cause adverse health effects in humans on ingestion and inhalation.
Chemical food contaminants substances are present naturally in the usual raw material used for food production or added during the regular production process. Failure to handle, store and label cleaning chemicals properly are the most common causes of chemical contamination. If added to food intentionally, quantities should be that are not beyond the acceptable limits established by the Food and Drugs Act and its regulations. To minimize the health risk from natural toxins in food, people are advised to:
-Not assume that if something is 'natural' it is automatically safe.
-Throw away bruised, damaged or discolored food, and in particular moldy foods.
-Throw away any food that does not smell or taste fresh, or has an unusual taste.
-Eat mushrooms or other wild plants that have definitively been identified as nonpoisonous.
Effects of Chemical Hazards on
#Health implications include:
-Harmful chemicals may disrupt body metabolism e.g., mercury can affect developing brains in fetuses, infants and children.
-Can cause cancer.
-Can lead to damage of genes.
-Can alter organ functions.
-Can cause malnutrition in the body that can lead to declination of immunological defenses, impair psycho-social facilities, and cause intrauterine growth retardation.
-Can cause increased rate of gastrointestinal diseases.
-Excessive intake of chemicals in food can cause neural and kidney damage, congenital disabilities and reproductive problems.
#Hospitality establishment implications:
-Leads to poor image and reputation.
-Can cause legislative actions after sues by customers.
-Workers can be exposed to many dangerous levels for many years with no obvious illness.
-Can cause shutdown of the hospitality establishment.
-Leads to loss of jobs of various personnel as affirmative actions are taken by the establishment.
#Hygiene and Food Legislation
These are laws designed to protect consumers from contaminated and dangerous foods, which can lead to ill-health conditions, and also from false information about certain foods.
#Importance of Food Legislation
-To protect the health of the consumer.
-To protect the consumer from fraud.
-To ensure the essential quality and wholesomeness of foods.
For this reason, it is necessary to ensure that the sources of food production are inspected and, quality control and standardization are observed.
Introduction to food safety & toxicologyRABIA SHABBIR
The environmental stimuli, global civilization, technical advancements and lifestyle modifications have paved way for rising toxicants into the food industry, thus, making the food more unsafe for use. The only way to get oneself nourished appropriately is to stay aware of the routes of toxification.
Pesticides have been linked to a number of health problems, including neurologic and endocrine (hormone) system disorders, birth defects, cancer, and other diseases.

Research involving laboratory animals is important to people and to our quality of life. In the past century, most inhabitants
of this planet have experienced an unprecedented
rise in living standards, life expectancy and personal
opportunity, in large part due to the many ways
chemicals have been put to work for us. For example,
drugs whose effects range from curing previously
fatal bacterial infections, reducing the impact of
AIDS, minimizing heart disease, decreasing age-
related wrinkles, to reducing hair loss are widely
available today. The many benefits of the diverse
uses of our natural resources are an outcome of
careful scientific research and of using chemicals
in an appropriate and safe manner. Toxicologists,
the scientists who help determine the limits for safe
use of materials, use modern technological research
methods, including tests on animals, to protect
human and animal health and the environment.
What is toxicology?
Toxicology is the study of how chemical substances
interact with living systems and affect normal
processes, and the use of this information to predict
safe exposure levels. Toxicological research and
testing helps us to live safely and to derive benefit
from natural and synthetic substances while avoiding
harm. Toxicologists are involved in the evaluation
of household products, medicines and the effects of
incidental and occupational exposure to natural and
manufactured substances. Toxicology also helps
us develop the best treatments in the event that
accidental overexposure does occur.
What is safe?
Toxicologists know that no substance is risk-free.
One fundamental tenet of the science of toxicology
is that all chemicals can cause harm at some level of
exposure, summed up in the phrase "the dose makes
the poison." This means that exposure to a specific
small amount of any substance will have no detectable
impact on normal biological processes and is
considered safe. Some doses actually have beneficial
effects, as we all know from use of medicines. But
increasing exposure to most substances will, at
some point, cause harmful effects. Substances are
considered toxic at that level. For example, digitalis is
a plant product that has been used with great benefit
to treat heart irregularities, but too large a dose will
cause death. Oxygen provides another example of how
increasing the dose can turn a safe compound into a
toxic one. Oxygen is essential to life and part of the air
we breathe, but when given at high concentrations it
can cause lung and eye damage in infants.
Sometimes the possible negative effects of a
substance are outweighed by the positive benefits
at that dose. Dogs are treated with heartworm
medication because the risk of death from
heartworms is much greater than the risk of toxicity
of the medication. Similarly, chemotherapeutic
agents ar.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

2. VETERINARY TOXICOLOGY
Toxicology is a branch of pharmacology which deals with the
studies of harmful drugs and chemicals administered in over
recommended (toxic) doses on the biological system.
Veterinary Toxicology is concerned more specifically with the
knowledge of the poisons that affect animals and birds and
the substances which are present in animal products which
can be hazardous to human health if consumed.
Animal feed safety, food safety and environmental safety –
important aspects of veterinary toxicology.
3. Importance Of VETERINARY TOXICOLOGY &
Role Of VETERINARY TOXICOLOGISTS
Veterinary toxicology is a specialty area in vety. medicine. & thus veterinary
toxicologists is a specialist in physical and chemical agents causing disease.
They have a key role in animal health, animal feed safety, the safety of human
foods and in environmental toxicology.
Diagnosis of animal intoxications, provide recommendations to prevent illegal
residues of substances from entering the human food chain.
Recommends treatment and antidotes for animal that have been poisoned.
Conducts research and teaching on toxicology and public health aspects
dealing.
They study on sentinel animals as early warning of harmful chemical and
physical agents in environment.
They deal in safety of agricultural chemicals , consumer products, surgical
implants and medical devices and medicaments.
They also conduct research on lab animals for drug safety and toxicological
effects .
4. Diagnosis of Animal Poisonings
A veterinary toxicologist works with the referring veterinarian, the
owner and veterinary specialists in pathology, microbiology and
nutrition to determine the most likely cause of a disease.
Poisoning cases due to change in feed source, delivery of feed stuffs
and switching bins etc. can provide clue regarding intoxications.
Determining the epidemiology of animal disease syndrome can
identify large scale contamination of feed stuff with toxic
substances.
These are then correlated to public health importance and are
addressed.
Necessary drugs and antidotes are prescribed by vety. Toxicologist
to save the life of the animal and economics of the farmer/owner.
5. Animal sentinels of Environmental Safety
Animals can also be used as sentinels of environmental safety.
For e.g. small rodents and birds collected from contaminated
sites can be studied for adverse effects of environmental
contaminants.
Tissues and body fluids can be assayed for xenobiotics and can
also be examined for pathological and biochemical methods to
identify biomarkers.
Biomarkers and analytical toxicology can be used to monitor the
translocation of contaminants from environment to living beings
and the adverse effect may be determined to study the possible
impacts on non-target species.
For e.g. sentinel animals can be used to monitor the impact of
contaminants (e.g. pesticides) in non-target species.
6. Assessment of Contamination of animal
feed stuffs.
Feed safety ensures that animal feedstuffs do not cause
disease and residues of harmful chemicals in animal.
Feed safety and human food safety are linked and exemplify
the convergence on the one medicine – one health concept.
Chemical contamination of feed stuffs introduces harmful
chemicals into the food web.
Therefore it is also the duty of the veterinary toxicologists to
analyze and assess the feed and associated health risks of the
animals, ensuring feed safety and preventing incorporation of
these contaminants in the food web.
7. Agricultural and Food animal residue (Food
Safety )
Human health is directly related to the environment , and in
particular the nature and quality of food.
But the food we eat may contain numerous toxic compounds which
may be naturally present ( e.g. solanine in potato i.e. a powerful
cholinesterase inhibitors and also have teratogenic effect.) or the
toxic substance may get acquired from other sources, for e.g. 1)
pesticides and insecticides sprayed on crop. 2) antibiotics or drug
residues in food animal. 3) spoilage contamination like by mould
growth releasing aflatoxins in feed that is a powerful carcinogen.
Ingestion of different toxins by food animals is also responsible for
the integration of such toxins into food chain, thus threatening
public health.
8. Agricultural and Food animal residue (Food
Safety )
To prevent and safeguard such issues, a veterinary
toxicologist studies and researches on different toxins that
come from animals, plants , phytoplanktons and toxins that
are result of pharmaceuticals, feed additives, radiation and
environmental agents and analyzes upon it to establish critical
points and implement regulations and standards to control
these hazards from entering into the food chain.
As a food analysts , vety. Toxicologists works with other
concerned specialists to establish different limits for the toxic
residues in food and implement and inspect for the same to
safeguard public health hazards. They analyse the food
samples to be introduced to consumers and inspect them for
the toxic residues and concentrations.
9. Agricultural and Food animal residue (Food
Safety )
Food animals suspected of being poisoned or suspected to
carry toxic residues are analyzed and rejected by toxicologists
and prevent them from entering the food web.
Therefore veterinary toxicologists are also considered as the
unsung heroes present among us who use the knowledge of
veterinary toxicology not only to successfully deal with the
dangerous emergency cases of poisoned animals, but also to take
care of public health aspects by preventing the incorporation of
toxins into our system and environment thus safeguarding the
whole ecosystem from public health hazards.
