Sir:- At the instigation of the Animal Health Division, Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, the Department of Health has reviewed the need for veterinary surgeons and persons in charge of laboratories to continue to notify the medical officer of health of any animal found to be suffering from any of a specified list of diseases communicable to humans. Such notification is required in terms of Section 87A of the Health Act 1956.  相似文献

Sir, —A recent issue of the Animal Health Division's excellent publication Surveillance (1978 No.5 Spring), reported that the Palmerston North Animal Health Laboratory had encountered a case involving 40 two-year-old rams, the majority of which had intramuscular perirenal abscesses. It was reported that these abscesses were due to vaccination with a single dose of Br. ovis vaccine, administered by the intraperitoneal route.  相似文献

The Tripartite collaboration (World Health Organization, the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations, and the World Organisation for Animal Health) produced two documents for consultation with Member Countries in 2017 ‐ Monitoring and Evaluation of the Global Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance: Proposed approach and the Global Framework for Development & Stewardship to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance: Draft Roadmap. These documents intend to support a strategic whole‐of‐system approach towards the World Health Organization's Global Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance. This paper outlines the recent thinking in antimicrobial stewardship being developed by the major international organisations involved with mitigating global antimicrobial resistance. The directions being set in key frameworks will need to be considered by Australian stakeholders as their own antimicrobial stewardship approaches and activities are formulated.  相似文献

In July 2015, a cluster of five suspect cases of clinically diagnosed Mycobacterium marinum (M. marinum) skin infections were reported to the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit (HKPRDHU), Ontario, Canada, with two additional cases subsequently identified through case finding. All seven cases presented with cutaneous lesions located on the finger, hand and/or elbow regions typical of M. marinum infection. Specimens were collected by skin biopsy for two of the seven cases; both cases tested positive for M. marinum by molecular detection (hsp65 gene amplification and sequencing), and one was confirmed positive for M. marinum by culture. All seven cases reported handling raw shrimp from an aquaculture facility in the Health Unit's jurisdiction. M. marinum is not a reportable disease in Ontario, and there are no known previous reports of a cluster of M. marinum reported in Ontario, Canada. A cluster investigation working group was struck that included representation from various agencies including Public Health Ontario (PHO), Public Health Ontario Laboratories (PHOL), Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) and the two health units involved in case investigations. Several public health and aquaculture farming recommendations were made to mitigate further risks associated with handling of raw shrimp from the facility. Several challenges were faced during the investigation process. The paper discusses these challenges and public health recommendations made in order to mitigate occupational and public health risks related to the hazard identified.  相似文献

Microsporum gypseum has a world-wide distribution in soil, and it is considered to be essentially a soil inhabitant that only occasionally parasitizes animals and man (Georg, 1959 Georg, L. K. 1959. Animal Ringworm in Public Health, 317. U.S. Dept. of Health, Education and Welfare, Public Health Service Publ..  [Google Scholar]).  相似文献

The National Reference Centre for Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) detection was established in 2002 within the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale Lazio e Toscana, with the aim of providing scientific and technical support to the National Health System and to the Ministry of Health within the scope of the regulation of GMO use in food and feed.

The recently adopted EU legislation on GMOs (Regulation CE no. 1829/2003 and no. 1830/2003) introduced more rigorous procedures for the authorisation, labelling and analytical control of food and feed consisting, containing or derived from GMOs. The National Reference Centre, besides its institutional tasks as one of the laboratories of the Italian National Health System, collects and analyses data and results of the national official control of GMOs; carries out scientific research aimed at developing, improving, validating and harmonising detection and quantification methods, in cooperation with other scientific institutions, the Community Reference Laboratory and within the European Network of GMOs laboratories (ENGL); collaborates with the Ministry of Health in the definition of control programmes and promotes educational and training initiatives. Objectives defined for 2004–2006, activities in progress and goals already achieved are presented.

Sir, — A 10-month-old Landrace boar affected with a “leg weakness” syndrome was recently euthanased at the Palmerston North Animal Health Laboratory. An incidental finding during post-mortem examination was the presence of a small number of nematodes of the genus Capillaria. A total of 23 specimens including some mature adults were found.  相似文献

African trypanosomosis is a major threat to livestock production in sub-Saharan Africa. Although the disease mainly concerns cattle, dogs can also be infected by Trypanosoma spp. transmitted by tsetse flies. Between 1997 and 2003, the parasite Trypanosoma congolense was identified in French military dogs sent to Africa. On infected dogs, the diagnosis was made during the mission or just after the return to France, depending on when the symptoms appeared. The high incidence and mortality rate among these dogs led veterinarians of the French Health Service to implement a systematic chemoprophylaxis beginning in 2004. Between 2004 and 2011, the chemoprophylaxis was carried out on more than 400 military dogs. The protocol of chemoprophylaxis relies on the use of isometamidium chloride (Trypamidium®, Merial). The drug has been used successfully at the dosage of 1 mg/kg body weight by deep intramuscular injection, every two or three months. In addition, dogs are given collars impregnated with deltamethrin (Scalibor®, MSD Animal Health). Isometamidium chloride was also used successfully in the treatment of military dogs infected with T. congolense, with a full recovery and without any relapses.  相似文献

Sir:- Samples from a case of sporadic abortion, two weeks before term in a two-year-old heifer, were submitted to the Palmerston North Animal Health Laboratory. They consisted of fresh foetal stomach contents, fixed foetal lung, and maternal urine and serum. No significant pathogens were isolated from the stomach contents or urine and serological tests for brucellosis and leptospirosis were negative.  相似文献

In August, 1963, Salmonella oranienburg was cultured in heavy pure growth from the lungs of an autolysed and mummified ovine foetus submitted to the Taieri laboratory from a property in Canterbury experiencing an abortion problem in ewes. Identification of the organism was made by the National Health Institute, Wellington, and confirmed by the Salmonella Reference Laboratory, Colindale, London. This was the first isolation of S. oranienburg from an animal in New Zealand.  相似文献

Bacteria (including chlamydia) and protozoa can produce neurological disease in Australian ruminant livestock and the nature of the inflammatory and neuroparenchymal response is often suggestive of a particular aetiological agent. An overview of the clinicopathological features of infectious disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS) is followed by a discussion of important bacterial and protozoal infections in Australia. Each infectious disease is discussed in terms of classification and pathogenesis linked to clinical signs and gross and microscopic findings. The literature review is restricted to infectious conditions causing CNS disease in Australia. Sources include the Australian Veterinary Journal (over 50 years of articles), the quarterly newsletter of the National Animal Health Surveillance System and the Animal Health Surveillance Quarterly.  相似文献

Holmstrom, S. D., Totten, M. L., Newhall, K. B., Qiao, M., Riggs, K. L. Pharmacokinetics of spinosad and milbemycin oxime administered in combination and separately per os to dogs. J. vet. Pharmacol. Therap  35 , 351–364. Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies were conducted to determine the potential PK interactions when spinosad and milbemycin oxime (MBO) are administered simultaneously. Investigations used commercial MBO tablets (C‐MBO; Interceptor® Flavor Tabs, active ingredient MBO, Novartis Animal Health, Greensboro, NC, USA), novel‐source (Elanco) MBO (E‐MBO) in a gelatin capsule, spinosad API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient using registered manufacturing process) in a gelatin capsule, spinosad tablets (Comfortis® chewable beef flavored tablets, active ingredient spinosad, Elanco Animal Health, Greenfield, IN, USA), and the recently registered spinosad + E‐MBO combination tablets (Trifexis? chewable beef flavored tablets, active ingredients E‐MBO and spinosad, Elanco Animal Health, Greenfield, IN, USA). Regardless of the source of MBO, in the presence of spinosad, greater systemic exposure of MBO was obtained as compared to MBO administered alone. Target animal safety studies conducted with dose multiples of spinosad and MBO indicate the increased exposure of MBO does not have implications on adverse clinical reactions. Further research is required to determine whether the higher levels of MBO have any implications for improved effectiveness as compared to C‐MBO. Effectiveness studies conducted with 0.5 mg/kg of E‐MBO in combination tablets demonstrated noninterference against C‐MBO with both products achieving >99% effectiveness against the dose‐limiting nematode, Ancylostoma caninum. No statistical differences were detected in the PK of MBO when comparing animals receiving E‐MBO (without spinosad) and C‐MBO. Also, the PK of spinosad was unaltered when co‐administered with MBO.  相似文献

Effects on production and health in broilers vaccinated against coccidiosis (Paracox®, Schering-Plough Animal Health) in combination with an antibacterial organic compound (Orego-Stim®, Meriden Animal Health Ltd.) were investigated. To obtain an environment and infection level similar to practical conditions, experimental floor pens were set up in a commercial broiler chicken house. Orego-Stim® supplement increased live weight and feed intake up to 48 days of age, whilst feed conversion ratio was not significantly affected. Vaccinated birds had a significantly higher live weight between 34 and 48 days, compared to non-vaccinated, but vaccination did not significantly affect feed intake or feed conversion ratio. Coccidial numbers in the litter were low, and only minor intestinal lesions were found. There were no significant differences in lesion scores between the different treatments. Orego-Stim® supplement decreased caecal numbers of Clostridium perfringens at 31 days, but not at 52 days, and numbers were not affected at all by anticoccidial vaccination. Bird health was overall good. The results indicate that vaccination against coccidiosis in combination with an in-feed antibacterial compound may be an alternative control method for intestinal health in organically produced chickens.  相似文献
