furazolidone and Body Weight

furazolidone has been researched along with Body Weight in 28 studies

Furazolidone: A nitrofuran derivative with antiprotozoal and antibacterial activity. Furazolidone acts by gradual inhibition of monoamine oxidase. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p514)
furazolidone : A member of the class of oxazolidines that is 1,3-oxazolidin-2-one in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is replaced by an N-{[(5-nitro-2-furyl)methylene]amino} group. It has antibacterial and antiprotozoal properties, and is used in the treatment of giardiasis and cholera.

Body Weight: The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms.

( Bristow, MR; DiSalvo, TG; Gwathmey, JK; Hajjar, RJ; Khan, F; Kim, CS; Matsumori, A, 1999)
"These data indicate that congestive cardiomyopathy is associated with markedly increased permeability of sarcoplasmic reticulum to Ca and compensatorily increased Ca-ATPase activity."1.28Myocardial Ca-sequestration failure and compensatory increase in Ca-ATPase with congestive cardiomyopathy: kinetic characterization by a homogenate microassay using real-time ratiometric indo-1 spectrofluorometry. ( Julian, R; Mirsalimi, M; O'Brien, PJ; Shen, H; Weiler, J, 1991)
" Four feeding trials were conducted to determine the performance of turkey poults when these compounds were used singly or in combination with 100 ppm of furazolidone."1.28Effect of including lasalocid or monensin singly or in combination with furazolidone on the growth and feed consumption of turkey poults. ( Czarnecki, CM, 1990)

" Thiamin, given at a dosage above the requirement of the vitamin for chickens, did not reduce the anorexia or the TPP effect of furazolidone-treated birds, although it stimulated the feed intake and growth of birds on unmedicated feed."1.26Anorexia and antagonism of thiamin utilization in poultry treated with furazolidone.
