Studies with specific-pathogen-free chickens revealed that chicks hatching from eggs inoculated at the 18th day of embryonation with infectious bursal disease (IBD) vaccine viruses of low virulence (isolates TC-IBDV and BVM-IBDV) developed antibody against IBD virus (IBDV) and resisted challenge with virulent IBDV at 3 weeks of age or older. Embryo vaccination did not adversely affect hatchability of chicks or survival of hatched chicks. Chicks embryonally vaccinated with TC-IBDV had transient histologic lesions in the bursa of Fabricius at hatch. Similar but milder lesions were also noted in chickens that received TC-IBDV at hatch. The level of protection following embryo vaccination with TC-IBDV and BVM-IBDV was similar to that following vaccination with the same vaccines at hatch. Vaccine viruses of moderate virulence (isolates BV-IBDV and 2512-IBDV) were not suitable as vaccines in embryos lacking maternal antibody to IBDV, because the vaccinated chicks developed acute IBD after hatch. Isolate 2512-IBDV was not pathogenic for embryos bearing maternal antibody to IBDV. Maternal antibody against IBDV interfered with efficacy of embryo vaccination with BVM-IBDV but not with 2512-IBDV. Embryo vaccination with a mixture of vaccines against IBD and Marek's disease resulted in protection of hatched chicks against challenge with virulent IBDV and Marek's disease virus.  相似文献

Immunogenicity of an Escherichia coli multivalent pilus vaccine in chickens   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Immunogenicity of an oil-emulsified Escherichia coli multivalent pilus vaccine was evaluated in 4-week-old chickens. The vaccine contained 180 micrograms of pilus protein from each of serotypes O1 and O78 and 170 micrograms of pilus protein from serotype O2. Chickens were vaccinated twice subcutaneously at 4 and 6 weeks old and challenged via the posterior thoracic air sac with E. coli serotype O1, O2, or O78 2 weeks after the last vaccination. Unvaccinated challenged chickens suffered 8% to 26% mortality; no vaccinated chickens died. Vaccinated chickens had very mild gross lesions in the air sacs, livers, and pericardial sacs and eliminated E. coli more efficiently than the unvaccinated challenged chickens. The results showed that a multivalent pilus vaccine protects chickens against active respiratory infection.  相似文献

Immunogenicity of an oil-emulsified Escherichia coli (serotype O1) pili vaccine was evaluated in chickens. Chickens were vaccinated with 116 micrograms or 29 micrograms of pili protein and challenged with the homologous E. coli via the posterior thoracic air sac. Unvaccinated chickens were challenged to serve as positive controls or left unchallenged to serve as negative controls. Vaccinated chickens were protected against challenge because they suffered low or no mortality; had mild gross lesions in air sacs, pericardial sacs, and livers, and the scored values were significantly (P less than or equal to 0.05) lower than those in the positive controls; and eliminated E. coli from tissues more efficiently than the positive controls.  相似文献

Immunogenic potency of an oil-emulsified Escherichia coli bacterin   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Immunogenicity of an oil-emulsified Escherichia coli (O1:K1) bacterin with an aqueous-phase-to-oil-phase ratio of 1:4 was evaluated in chickens. Chickens were vaccinated subcutaneously with 0.5 ml of the bacterin at 4 and 6 weeks of age. At 8 weeks, the vaccinated chickens and unvaccinated controls were challenged via air sacs with 10(4) colony-forming units (CFU) of homologous E. coli. Vaccinated chickens were protected against active respiratory infection in that they (a) gained body weights comparable to those in unvaccinated, unchallenged chickens, (b) suffered no morbidity or mortality, (c) had gross lesions so mild that the scored values were comparable statistically to the 0 lesion scores of the negative controls, and (d) did not yield E. coli when their heart blood, pericardial sacs, livers, and air sacs were cultured. Unvaccinated challenged chickens had severe respiratory distress, suffered 36% mortality, and had average air sac, pericardial sac, and liver lesion scores significantly (P less than or equal to 0.05) different from both the vaccinated and negative control chickens. Also, the challenge strain of E. coli only was isolated from the affected tissues of 5 of 14 chickens. Protection against active respiratory infection was again demonstrated in a second experiment, though the challenge dose was 1.06 X 10(6) CFU of E. coli. The immunity, however, was partially overcome, as the vaccinated chickens gained less body weight and the scored values for lesions in the air sacs, pericardial sacs, and livers were significantly higher than those of the negative controls (P less than or equal to 0.05).  相似文献

Turkeys surgically bursectomized, irradiated, and/or injected with cyclophosphamide at 1 day were vaccinated with the live Clemson University (CU) strain of Pasteurella multocida. Bursectomized turkeys vaccinated via drinking water or wing-web puncture at 7 weeks and challenged at 11 weeks had a significantly (P less than 0.05) lower survival rate after challenge than unbursectomized controls. Bursectomized and unbursectomized turkeys vaccinated via drinking water at 7 weeks, revaccinated via the auditory tube at 11 weeks, and challenged at 15 weeks had similar survival rates. The vaccinated bursectomized turkeys had significantly (P less than 0.05) lower levels of serum anti-P. multocida antibody than vaccinated unbursectomized controls. Radiation had no immunosuppressive effect. The immunosuppressive effect of cyclophosphamide was dosage-dependent. Bursectomy and injection of cyclophosphamide in the same turkey were complementary. It was concluded that in young turkeys, the development of immunity to the avirulent CU vaccine is highly dependent upon the bursa of Fabricius, but that as they grow older the bursa is of less importance, particularly if they were vaccinated via a parenteral route, such as in the air spaces of the head.  相似文献

A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of ochratoxin A (OA) on Escherichia coli-challenged broiler chickens. Day-old broiler chicks were separated into two groups of 92 chicks each, with one group fed a control mash diet, and the other fed a mash diet containing 2 ppm OA. On day 14, each group was further separated into two groups, with one group inoculated with E. coli O78 (1 x 10(7) colony-forming units/0.5 ml), whereas the other group was not inoculated with E. coli. After E. coli inoculation on day 14, four birds from each group were euthanatized at 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, and 21 days postinoculation. Escherichia coli infection caused dullness, depression, huddling, and diarrhea. Mortality was 14.3% in chicks infected with E. coli but fed no OA. Mortality increased to 35.7% in chicks fed OA and infected with E. coli. Decreased body weight and reduced feed intake were observed in chicks fed OA, and the effects were more pronounced in chicks fed OA and infected with E. coli. Increased serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, uric acid, and creatinine and decreased levels of total proteins, albumin, globulins, calcium, and phosphorus were observed in OA-fed birds. Escherichia coli infection did not cause significant alteration in any of the serum biochemical parameters. The presence of OA in poultry rations increased mortality and the severity of an E. coli infection.  相似文献

Groups of white leghorn hens were vaccinated twice with a Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) bacterin, once with bacterin, or left unvaccinated. Four weeks after vaccination, they were challenged with virulent R strain MG. Egg production was significantly higher in challenged vaccinated groups than in the challenged control group. Four challenged control hens went out of production, whereas only one twice-vaccinated hen did. MG was first isolated directly from eggs 5 days postchallenge (PC) in twice-vaccinated hens, 4 days PC in once-vaccinated hens, and 2 days PC in controls, and the hens continued to lay positive eggs till the end of the experiment 7 weeks PC. MG was found in 17.65%, 38.55%, and 45.90% of eggs cultured in twice-vaccinated, once-vaccinated, and control groups, respectively. Nine of 16 twice-vaccinated hens were found to be shedding MG through their eggs, whereas 15 of 17 once-vaccinated hens and 14 of 16 controls were shedding MG through their eggs.  相似文献

Development in culture of the chick embryo from cleavage to hatch   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
1. Early uterine embryos were obtained from hens by induced oviposition 7.5-8.0 h after the preceding egg was laid. They were cultured in vitro and then in recipient shells to hatch. As controls, embryos from freshly laid eggs were cultured in recipient shells to hatch. 2. For embryos cultured from uterine eggs, the hatch rate was 22.5%, and for embryos cultured from laid eggs, the hatch rate was 62.5%. 3. The weight of the chicks hatched from culture was about 60% of the weight of the preceding egg, or donor egg. Male and female chicks reached maturity and have produced viable offsprings. 4. The results show that it is possible to grow chick embryos in culture from the early cleavage stage (stage II) to hatch. They extend earlier findings on the culture of embryos from the blastoderm stage (Stage X) to hatch. The technique provides a basis for investigations on chick embryo cryopreservation.  相似文献

Colonization characteristics of Campylobacter jejuni in chick ceca   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
We report our findings on several parameters influencing cecal colonization of chickens by Campylobacter jejuni. Thirty-five colony-forming units (CFU) of a composite culture of C. jejuni colonized the ceca of one-half of the newly hatched chicks challenged by oral gavage. A challenge dose of 3500 CFU/chick consistently colonized the ceca of all chicks challenged. Challenge doses of approximately 10(5) CFU of C. jejuni per chick resulted in consistent cecal colonization, regardless of whether the birds were challenged 1, 2, or 3 days post-hatch. Four isolates showed consistently strong cecal colonization abilities, whereas two isolates colonized the ceca in only 20 of 122 chicks when given levels of 10(5) CFU per chick. One of these poorly colonizing isolates was repeatedly transferred by fecal-oral passage through chicks; subsequently, this isolate was able to consistently colonize chicks. Competitive exclusion (CE) microflora did not diminish the colonization rates for C. jejuni. Birds treated with five different CE cultures were colonized at a rate of 81 of 84 chicks; control chicks were similarly consistently colonized (45 of 46 chicks).  相似文献

1. The object of this research was to investigate the effects of high altitude with supplementary oxygen during the last stage of incubation of broiler eggs laid at low altitude and incubated at low and high altitude. We analysed thyroid hormones and haematological variables. 2. The treatment groups were: low altitude (LA), high altitude with oxygen supplementation in the hatcher (HA-OX) and high altitude non-oxygen-supplemented (HA-NOX). 3. High altitude affected relative egg weight loss and early embryonic mortality. The hatchability of fertile eggs was lower at high than at low altitude. 4. Oxygen supplementation into the hatcher cabinet during the last stage of incubation decreased late embryonic mortality ratio (LEM(1)) and improved survival rates of embryos incubated at high altitude. 5. Eggs incubated at low altitude had a higher hatched chick weight and relative chick weight than those incubated at high altitude. Hatched chick weight and relative chick weight did not change with oxygen supplementation at high altitude. 6. High altitude caused an increase in plasma T(3) and T(4) concentrations as well as in the ratio of T(3):T(4) in embryos. High altitude newly hatched chicks showed a higher T(3):T(4) ratio than low altitude chicks; this ratio decreased with oxygen supplementation at high altitude. Altitude and oxygen supplementation did not affect the mean plasma T(4). 7. Newly-hatched chicks incubated at high altitude showed a higher plasma haematocrit (PCV) than the newly-hatched chicks from eggs incubated at low altitude. High altitude without supplementation increased haemoglobin (Hb), while oxygen supplementation returned the value to low altitude values.  相似文献

The delta galE, delta purA, and delta aroA derivatives of avian septicemic Escherichia coli EC99 strain (O78 serogroup) were constructed with a suicide vector containing the pir-dependent R6K replicon and the sacB gene of Bacillus subtilis. The resultant isogenic mutants were stable and lacked approximately 45%, 36%, and 52% of the genes for galE, purA, and aroA, respectively. The delta purA and delta aroA mutants did not grow on minimal medium, whereas the delta galE mutant grew on minimal medium but was sensitive to galactose-induced lysis. The reversion frequencies of all three mutants were <10(-12). The mutants were highly attenuated for virulence as determined by administration of approximately 10(7) colony-forming units of each mutant to 1-day-old chicks by the subcutaneous route. Chickens were vaccinated with the mutants by spray (droplet size approximately 20 microm) at 1 and 14 days of age to determine safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy. The mutants were found to be safe. Seven days after a second vaccination, immunoglobulin (Ig)Y antibodies to E. coli in serum and air sac washings were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In both serum and air sac washings, IgY antibodies were significantly higher in chickens vaccinated with the mutants as compared with phosphate-buffered saline-treated controls but were significantly lower compared with chickens that were vaccinated with the parent strain. In serum, but not in air sac washings, IgY antibodies were significantly lower in chickens vaccinated with the mutants compared with the parent strain. The vaccinated chickens were given infectious bronchitis virus intranasally at 17 days of age and were challenged with homologous (EC99 strain) or heterologous (O2 serogroup) E. coli 4 days later. Chickens that received wild-type EC99 strain or its mutant derivatives were protected from homologous but not from heterologous challenge. This study indicates that the delta galE, delta purA, and delta aroA mutants are safe and moderately immunogenic but the protection conferred by the mutants is serogroup specific.  相似文献

Several oncogenic and non-oncogenic isolates of Marek's disease virus (MDV) were inoculated into embryonated eggs on embryonation day (ED) 16 to 18, and embryos or chicks hatching from inoculated eggs were examined for infectious virus and viral internal antigen (VIA) in lymphoid organs. There was no evidence of extensive replication of MDV in any of the embryonic tissues examined. Levels of VIA peaked 4-5 days after chicks hatched. This indicated that MDV remained inactive during embryonation and did not initiate pathogenic events until chicks hatched. Because HVT replicated rapidly in the embryo but MDV did not, in ovo inoculation of HVT simultaneously with oncogenic MDV or several days after MDV resulted in significant protection (P less than 0.025) of hatched chicks against Marek's disease (MD). Little protection was obtained if HVT was given simultaneously with MDV or after MDV to chicks already hatched. The relative susceptibility of the embryo to extensive replication of the vaccine virus but not the challenge virus apparently accounted for protection against MD in chicks hatching from dually infected eggs.  相似文献

Experimental colibacillosis was produced in 40 healthy, 7-day-old broiler chickens and turkeys by intratracheal injection of 1 x 10(8) CFU/chick and 1.23 x 10(9) CFU/poult bacteria of an O1:F11 strain of Escherichia coli, respectively. Two days before E. coli challenge all chicks were vaccinated with a live attenuated strain of infectious bronchitis virus (H-52). This model of infection--at least in chicken--proved to be useful for evaluating the efficacy of antimicrobial medication, by recording mortality, body weight gain, pathological alterations and frequency of reisolation of E. coli. Using this model, the efficacy of two different dosing methods of norfloxacin (continuous and pulse dosing) was evaluated. The once-per-day pulse dosing of norfloxacin administered via the drinking water at 15 mg/kg body weight proved to be more efficacious than the continuous dosing method of 100 mg/L for 5 days in chickens, while there were no convincing differences between the two treatment regimens in turkeys. The results confirmed earlier observations on the pharmacokinetic properties of norfloxacin in chicks and turkeys (Laczay et al., 1998).  相似文献

The efficacy of a new vaccine against neonatal Escherichia coli diarrhoea in piglets containing purified F4ab, F4ac, F5 and F6 fimbriae and detoxified heat-labile toxin (LT) was tested in challenge experiments by the method described by the European Pharmacopoeia (3rd edn, EDQM, Council of Europe, Strasbourg, France). A group of 11 young sows from a herd without E. coli problems was vaccinated 6-8 and 2-4 weeks prior to expected farrowing and another group of nine young sows were non-vaccinated controls. Escherichia coli antibody titres were determined in serum samples taken from the sows before first vaccination and before farrowing and in colostrum samples. The newborn piglets were allowed to suckle colostrum from their mother immediately after birth. The piglets were marked with individually numbered ear tags. Approximately 12 h after birth, 118 piglets from vaccinated sows and 79 piglets from non-vaccinated control sows were challenged by oral instillation of 5 ml of a freshly prepared culture of one of the challenge strains [O8:K87:F4ab (LT+) or O149:K91:F4ac (LT+) or O9:K30:F5 or O9:K103:F6 respectively]. The challenge cultures contained as a mean 6.8x10(9) CFU/ml. After challenge the piglets were observed for 7 days and mortality and morbidity were recorded. Vaccinated sows developed significant levels of antibody titres in colostrum and serum. Control sows stayed at a low/seronegative level. The protective efficacy was excellent because 66.7-87.5% of the piglets from vaccinated sows remained without clinical signs after challenge. Only 0.0-28.0% of the piglets from non-vaccinated sows remained healthy and more than 47.1% of the piglets in this group died after challenge. It is concluded that the new vaccine is very effective in protection of piglets against neonatal E. coli diarrhoea.  相似文献

An Escherichia coli causing negligible mortality in embryonated chicken eggs was adapted to grow in media containing nalidixic acid. This isolate (EcNAL) was inoculated into 12-day-old embryonated eggs. Additional embryos inoculated with tryptose phosphate broth (TPB) served as controls. Six days later, all surviving eggs were moved to hatching units. One hatcher contained half of the TPB-inoculated eggs; the chicks hatching from these eggs served as negative controls. The EcNAL-inoculated eggs and the remaining TPB-inoculated eggs were moved to a second hatcher and allowed to hatch together; chicks hatching from these TPB-inoculated eggs served as contact controls. On day of hatch and at intervals thereafter, chicks from each of the treatment groups were sampled. Their body and yolk weights were recorded, and various tissues were cultured for the presence of the EcNAL bacterium. Hatchability of the EcNAL-inoculated embryos was markedly lower than that of either control group. Chicks from EcNAL-inoculated embryos also had low but detectable levels of mortality, lowered body weights, and increased yolk-to-body weight ratios. These same chicks had persistently high levels of EcNAL in the yolk and lower but detectable levels of the organism in the lungs and tracheas, which lasted a few days. The contact controls, on the other hand, were similar to the negative controls as far as having negligible mortality, steadily increasing body weights, and declining yolk-to-body weight ratios. However, in contrast to the negative controls, EcNAL was recovered primarily from the respiratory tract of the contact controls for a brief period of 3-4 days after hatch.  相似文献

Immunogenicity of an oil-emulsified Escherichia coli bacterin against heterologous challenge was investigated. In Expts. 1 and 2, chickens were vaccinated with E. coli serotype O1 bacterin and challenged with E. coli serotype O2 (Expt. 1) and O78 (Expt. 2). Positive control chickens were not vaccinated but challenged with E. coli serotype O2 or O78; unvaccinated unchallenged chickens served as negative controls. When challenged with E. coli serotype O2, unvaccinated chickens showed a higher morbidity than vaccinated chickens. There was no mortality in either group. Although average gross lesion scores were generally higher in the unvaccinated chickens, they were not significantly different (P greater than or equal to 0.05) from those in the vaccinated chickens. In Expt. 2, morbidity was slightly higher in the unvaccinated challenged chickens. No mortality occurred in either group. There was no significant difference (P greater than or equal to 0.05) between vaccinated and unvaccinated chickens in average gross lesion scores. In general, E. coli recovery was higher in the unvaccinated challenged chickens, being highest in the air sacs followed by the liver, heart blood, and pericardial sacs. There was no morbidity, mortality, or gross lesions in the unvaccinated unchallenged chickens. No E. coli was recovered from the tissues cultured. The results of these laboratory trials revealed that an oilemulsified monovalent E. coli bacterin did not protect chickens against other E. coli serotypes associated with colibacillosis.  相似文献

1. Male chicks hatched from eggs heavier than 60 g weighed more (P less than 0-05) than female chicks from eggs of similar weight. 2. The weight of the residual yolk was similar in both sexes. 3. It is concluded that male embryos are better able to utilise the energy supplies in the egg, particularly after the 18th day of incubation.  相似文献
