Foodborne pathogens like Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes are microbial agents capable of causing severe illnesses, and they pose a perpetual menace to the food industry. Given their potential to jeopardize human health, both food producers and consumers hold significant concerns regarding these pathogens. The quest for novel strategies and natural preservatives in the domain of food safety holds paramount importance in the effort to curtail the dissemination and contamination of these pathogens. In this context, honey stands out as a notable natural product with substantial potential. Honey, through its bioactive constituents, . . . including phenolic compounds, specialized enzymes, and particularly the production of hydrogen peroxide, can serve as an efficacious tool in combatting microorganisms. This review undertakes an exploration of the antimicrobial impacts of honey on Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes by conducting a comprehensive assessment of existing literature and consolidating available data. The existing data strongly indicates the potential of honey's antimicrobial components to hinder the proliferation and dissemination of these pathogens. This review's principal aim is to outline a path for future research and applications, acknowledging the essential need for additional data and thorough investigations before efficiently deploying honey as a countermeasure against these pathogens.

Кыргыз Республикасында жылкылардын бакубаттуулугун баалоо протоколунун концепциясын иштеп чыгууда, жылкыларды үйүрдө багуунун климаттык жана технологиялык өзгөчө шарттарын эске алуу зарыл. Макаланын максаты – тоолуу жайыттардын шарттарында асыралган үйүрлүү жылкылардын бакубаттуулугун баалоо протоколунун концепциясын аныктоо болуп саналат. Изилдөөлөрдүн темасына ылайык илимий булактарды иликтөөлөр илимий китепканаларда жана интернет булактарында жүргүзүлдү. Жайыттардын шартында асыралган жылкылардын бакубаттуулук деңгээлин баалоо критерийлери же өлчөнүүчү көрсөткүчтөрү байкоонун түз жана кыйыр ыкмалары колдонулуп такталды. Алынган м . . .аалыматтар салыштырма ыкмасы колдонулуп анализденди. Изилдөөлөрдүн жыйынтыгында бакубаттуулуктун «беш эркиндик» принциптерине негизделген төмөндөгүдөй концепциясы аныкталды: 1) Кыргыз Республикасында үйүрлүү жылкылардын бакубаттуулук деңгээлин баалоодо AWIN (2015) протоколу негиз катары кабыл алынышы максатка ылайыктуу; 2) Жылкылар үйүрдүн курамында асыралгандыктан, бардык бээлер жана айгыр иликтөөгө алынышы зарыл; 3) Баалоо прициптери болуп төмөндөгүлөр кабыл алынды: I. Жакшы жайыт; II. Жакшы ден-соолук; III. Талаптагыдай жүрүш-туруш; 4) Жылкылардын бакубаттуулук деңгээлине баа берүүдө, 7 критерийдин алкагындагы ар бири 5 баллдык система менен баалануучу 20 көрсөткүчтүн колдонулушунун талапка ылайыктыгы ортого чыкты. Үйүрлүү жылкылардын бакубаттуулук баалоо протоколу негизинен жылкынын физиологиялык абалын жана жүрүш-турушун чагылдырган көрсөткүчтөрдөн туруп (85%), жайыттын абалын, жылкыларды багуу жана тоюттандыруу шарттарын камтыган көрсөткүчтөр менен толукталып турат (15%). The scientific community has developed several concepts to characterize and appreciate animal welfare. Behavioural approaches state that animals should live accordingly to their nature and should be able to perform all necessary behaviours without aversion. Physiological approaches based on the concepts of homeostasis and allostasis have been developed. In developing the concept of the welfare assessment protocol for horses in the Kyrgyz Republic, it is necessary to take into account the special climatic and technological conditions for keeping horses in herds. The purpose of this article is to define the concept of the protocol for assessing the welfare of herd horses bred in mountain pastures. Scientific review of sources in accordance with the research topic was conducted in scientific libraries and Internet sources. Criteria or indicators for assessing the level of well-being of horses bred in pasture conditions were clarified using direct and indirect methods of observation. The obtained data were analyzed using the comparative method. The study identified the following concept of well-being based on the principles of the "five freedoms": 1) It is expedient to adopt the AWIN (2015) protocol as a basis for assessing the level of welfare of horse-herd in the Kyrgyz Republic; 2) Since horses are bred in a herd, all mares and stallions should be examined; 3) The principles of evaluation are as follows: I. Good pasture; II. Good health; III. Proper behavior; 4) In assessing the level of well-being of horses, it was found appropriate to use 20 indicators, each of which is assessed on a 5-point scale within the framework of 7 criteria. The protocol for the assessment of the well-being of horse-herd consists mainly of indicators reflecting the physiological condition and behavior of the horse (85%), supplemented by indicators covering the condition of pastures, conditions of breeding and feeding horses (15%) More less

The objectives set to bring animal husbandry to an advanced level and to a certain standard are important in Turkey. Agriculture is mostly done in the conventional manner in Turkey and producers and farmers do not need to improve themselves. In contrast to population growth across the country, there is a significant decrease in agricultural production. The reason for this, it can be said that the reasons such as the lack of security of the working people in the sector, the fact that they do not receive a wage that can sustain their lives, the lack of infrastructure to carry out training programs for constantly changing and developin . . .g. We can define herd management as providing the animals with optimum care and welfare conditions, achieving the desired target for fertility, reproduction, and nutrition and preventing animal diseases and management-related losses in livestock enterprises. The main objective of herd management and a manager is to increase animal production to breeders and to provide economic returns that can provide sustainability and competitiveness in enterprises. In addition, it is to minimize or completely eliminate the material losses that may occur by means of more cost-effective and efficiently organized programs. In order to solve all these problems, herd management should be considered as an educated and organized profession. As a result of the training of certified herd management, breeders who are employed without registration and social security must be provided with registered status, increase the number of registered employees and achieve professional status by providing organization. It is important that certificate is a prerequisite for the grower to benefit from government support, incentives, grants, subsidies, and other national and international projects More less

Perinatal mortality (PM) may be defined as calf dead prior to, during or within 48 hours of calving. The main cases of PM are combined respiratory and metabolic acidosis, parturient trauma, hypoglobulinemia, congenital infections and deficiencies. Prevalence of perinatal mortality of newborn 260 calves in ten dairy farms in Aksehir, Ilgın and Kadınhanı province of Konya between 2009-2011 years was investigated in the study. For statistic, all date was analyzed using Pearson Chi- Square test (SPSS 16.0 package program) Dairy farm type; the rate of perinatal mortality in close (40,6%) and open (28,6) dairy farms had high (p< 0,05) com . . .pared to half-open dairy farm (7,5%). Dairy farm capacity; the rate of perinatal mortality in dairy farm included 1-5, 6-20, 21-50, and >50 dairy animals were found 38%, 20%, 16.7% and 7%, respectively. The rate of perinatal mortality in dairy farms that birth and calf house was lower (p< 0,05) compared to in dairy farms that no birth and calf house. Breed; The rate of perinatal mortality in Holstein, Brown-Swiss and others breeds were 13,8%, 17,2% and 7,8%, respectively. In conclusion; the result of the study showed that the rate of perinatal mortality in North-Western region of Konya was 12,7%. We could say that the main cause of increase rate of PM was using traditional methods in dairy farms. In the meantime, it was also important for PM more numbers of nulliparous cows and totally low animal numbers in dairy farms.- Keywords: calves, perinatal mortality, prevalance, Kony More less
