    The aim of this study was to compare the nutritive values of hays of local sainfoin (Onobrychis sativa) populations these grown in Sivas, Kayseri and Kahramanmaras provinces of Turkey. For this purpose, 12 different sainfoin populations harvested from these provinces. Sainfoins harvested at flowering stage and dried then chemical compositions, in vitro gas and methane productions, metabolic energy and digestible organic matter contents were determined. There were significant (P <= 0.01) differences between chemical compositions of local sainfoin populations. Crude protein contents varied between 12.73 and 15.90%, crude ash contents varied between 5.95 and 7.63%, dry matter contents between 19.41 and 22.39%, condensed tanin ratios between 2.07 and 4.70%, ADF and NDF contents changed between respectively 32.01-41.79% and 42.57-53.89% and crude fat contents varied between 0.69 and 2.02%. 24 h in vitro gas and methane productions varied between respectively 39.49-52.40 ml and 7.70-10.30 ml. Metabolic energy contents of studied materials changed between 8.31 and 10.19 MJ/kg DM and digestible organic matter contents varied between 60.05 and 72.59%. According to current findings, there were considerable differences between nutrient contents of studied sainfoin populations and it was concluded that the population which harvested from Kayseri Bunyan come into prominence with higher protein and metabolisable energy and lesser ADF and NDF content than the others

    The objectives of the study were to investigate and compare the susceptibility profiles of preoperative and postoperative intestinal Bacteroides fragilis and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron strains against antimicrobials to evaluate their resistance development patterns due to prophylactic antibiotic administration. Preoperative and postoperative stool samples were obtained from patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery with a clean-contaminated wound categorization. All patients received cefoxitin 2 g as prophylaxis. Isolates of Bacteroides species were identified. Susceptibility tests against ampicillin, piperacillin, cefoxitin, clindamycin, chloramphenicol, metronidazole, imipenem, and amoxicillin-clavulanate were performed. Stool samples were collected from 40 patients at two settings: before and after the operation. Most of the patients (53%) were operated on because of colorectal carcinoma and underwent surgery that included colectomy or anterior resection. Bacteroides fragilis and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron were isolated in both samples obtained from 22 and 34 patients, respectively. In the present study 95% to 100%, 50% to 74%, 46% to 64%, and 18% to 35% of preoperatively isolated Bacteroides species were resistant to ampicillin, cefoxitin, clindamycin, and piperacillin, respectively. Although there were no statistically significant difference, postoperative strains were more resistant than preoperative isolates, and the resistance rates were found to be 95% to 100%, 55% to 82%, 46% to 86%, and 37% to 41%, respectively. Both Bacteroides species isolated from all specimens before and after the surgery were uniformly susceptible to amoxicillin-clavulanate, imipenem, metronidazol, and chloramphenicol. Our data revealed that Bacteroides strains revealed high resistance to ampicillin, cefoxitin, piperacillin, and clindamycin. Metronidazole, imipenem, and amoxicillin-clavulanate seem highly effective against both Bacteroides species. Cefoxitin prophylaxis did not significantly increase the resistance patterns against antimicrobial agents

    Bu araştırmada, Erciyes &Uuml;niversitesinde eğitim g&ouml;ren &ouml;ğrencilerin s&uuml;t t&uuml;ketim alışkanlıkları araştırılmıştır. &Ccedil;alışmada kullanılan veriler, toplam 240 &ouml;ğrenci ile y&uuml;z y&uuml;ze g&ouml;r&uuml;şme tekniği kullanılarak uygulanan anketler vasıtasıyla elde edilmiştir. Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 21.4 olarak belirlenmiştir. Katılımcıların %35&rsquo;ini sosyal bilimler, %34&rsquo;&uuml;n&uuml; sağlık bilimleri ve %31&rsquo;ini ise fen bilimleri branşında eğitim g&ouml;ren &ouml;ğrenciler oluşturmuştur. Katılımcıların %75&rsquo;i g&uuml;nl&uuml;k 100-250 ml s&uuml;t t&uuml;kettiklerini belirtmişlerdir. Ankete katılan &ouml;ğrenciler, s&uuml;t t&uuml;ketiminin teşviki amacıyla kamu ve sivil toplum kuruluşları tarafından yapılan bilin&ccedil;lendirme &ccedil;alışmalarını yetersiz bulduğunu ve bu ama&ccedil;la kullanılabilecek en etkili y&ouml;ntemin g&ouml;rsel-işitsel medya olabileceğini belirtmişlerdir.In this study, the habits of milk consumption of undergraduate students of Erciyes University were investigated. The data used in this study was obtained from surveys that carried out on 240 students educated at the Erciyes University with face-to-face interview technique. The average age of participants was determined as 21.4. While, 35% of the participant students were studying at social sciences, 34% were studying at the health sciences and 31% were studying at the natural and applied sciences. 75% of the participants stated that they consume 100- 250 ml milk per day. Students also reported that, inciting programs which performed by state or non-governmental organizations are not enough to increase of consumption of milk and audio-visual media can be the most effective method for this purpose.</p
