Abstract Extract Sir, — The leptospiral serovars that have been cultured in New Zealand are pomona, copenhageni, ballum and hardjo. (Anon., 1951; Kirschner and Gray, 1951; Anon., 1967a; Lake, 1973, respectively.) Serological evidence of serovar tarassovi has been published (Russell and Hansen, 1958) but it is believed that until now no members of this serogroup have been isolated in New Zealand. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Both Candida albicans and C. tropicalis have been implicated in cases of bovine mastitis following udder infusion with antibiotics (Loken et al., 1959). In some cases (Tucker, 1954), contamination of the diluting fluid and teats with yeasts from the operator has been given as the cause, while in other cases (Stuart, 1951; Hulse, 1952), yeasts from brewer's grains on which the cows were feeding have been blamed. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus has been associated with respiratory infection (Webster and Manktelow, 1959) and genital infections (Manktelow and Hansen, 1961) in New Zealand. The possible role of IBR virus in abortion has been reviewed by Durham (1974). 相似文献

Abstract Extract There are two principal sources of initial infection for the young lamb, the ewe grazing with it and the residual pasture infection resulting from any previous grazing. Several workers (Hawkins et al., 1944; Leiper, 1951; Spedding and Brown, 1956; Spedding, 1962; Crofton, 1958; Soulsby, 1962) believe that the former is generally the more important. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Published records of Escherichia coli infection in lambs have appeared with increasing frequency in recent years. Reports have come from Australia (Roberts, 1957, 1958; Charles, 1957) and from Britain (Terlecki and Shaw, 1959; Rees, 1958; Hughes, 1962). In the Australian outbreaks, the age of affected lambs ranged from three to eight weeks, while in the British outbreaks lambs became affected within one day of birth. In both countries the illness lasted from one to three days. Characteristically, the infection localized in the central nervous system leading to purulent meningo-encephahtis, and in the joints causing fibrino-purulent arthritis. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Recent surveys carried out by the Veterinary Investigation Service in Britain (1959, 1960) into the causes of mortality in pigs confirmed the general impression that, in spite of advances in therapy and prophylaxis during the last 20 years, the mortality rate in piglets below 8 weeks of age is still in the region of 25 per cent of live births, a figure depressingly similar to, and indeed somewhat above, that obtained by Menzies-Kitchin (1937, 1938) before the war. The surveys also analysed all deaths by age groups, organs affected and aetiological agent, in an attempt to define as precisely as possible the disease problems in British pigs. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Granulomatous lesions in cats are well recognized entities and in particular lesions ascribed to various actinomycetes have been reported on a number of occasions (Ainsworth and Austwick, 1959, pp. 65–72). In a survey carried out by Prévot et al. (1961) it was found that, of 100 organisms isolated from chronic suppurative lesions in cats, only 5 per cent, were actinomycetes. The remaining 95 per cent. Included streptococci, staphylococci, Pasteurella septica and several members of the family Sphaerophoraceae. In all cases, the pus contained granules resembling the “sulphur-granules” commonly associated with actinomycosis. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Despite many viruses having been isolated from bovine respiratory and intestinal tracts, only those of bovine virus diarrhoea (BVD), bovine parainfluenza 3 (PI 3) and infectious bovine rhinotracheitis-infectious pustular vulvovaginitis (IBR) have so far been associated with specific clinical complexes. Serological surveys have demonstrated the wide geographical distribution of all three viruses (Huck, 1962; Paterson, 1962; French and Snowdon, 1964; Dawson and Darbyshire, 1964), although so far only IBR has been confirmed as being present in New Zealand (Webster and Manktelow, 1959). However, in view of a previous outbreak of a mucosal-like disease (Salisbury etal., 1961) together with the frequent occurrence of upper respiratory tract symptoms, it seemed most unlikely that other members of this virus trio would be absent from cattle in this country. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) is an acute respiratory disease of fowls which was first reported from the U.S.A. by May and Tittsler (1925). Both severe acute forms with high mortality and chronic enzootic forms with low mortality have been described, and the earlier literature was reviewed by Jordan (1966). In New Zealand ILT virus was first isolated in 1957 (Webster, 1959). 相似文献

Abstract Extract The abnormally long occlusion of the laryngeal aditus by continued action of the intrinsic laryngeal muscles (laryngospasm) has been recorded in many experimental and domestic animals and in man. Most reports on laryngospasm have been related to its occurrence under general anaesthesia where it has been foundin all the domestic species (Lumb, 1963; Westhues and Fritsch, 1965; Hall, 1966) but is most commonly encountered in the cat (Rex, 1969). 相似文献

Abstract Extract Sir, — Leptospira interrogans serovar balcanica is now recognised as a widespread infection among opossums in New Zealand (2) and the possibility of domestic stock acting as accidental hosts has recently been demonstrated. (3) With the recent development of hardjo vaccines (1) (4) for controlling infection with this serovar in the maintenance hosts, stock could be left vulnerable to infection with other prevalent serovars such as balcanica. 相似文献

Abstract Extract The equine lungworm was first reorded in a donkey (Equus asinus) and named Strongylus arnfieldi by Cobbold (1884). Later it was recognized in the horse by Railliet and placed in the genus Dictyocaulus by Railliet and Henry in 1907. Numerous reports describe its cosmapolitan distribution although the cases de- scribed below appear to be the first published records of it from New Zealand, apart from a Department of Agriculture Report (Anon., 1966). 相似文献

Abstract Extract Rural veterinary practice faces difficulties in many parts of the world. Falling farm incomes and increasing costs have sometimes resulted in reduced use of veterinary services. There seems to be widespread agreement that an increased emphasis on preventive medicine would improve the situation for both the farmer and his veterinarian. There appear to be no commonly agreed formal criteria for the development and evaluation of health programmes, either in human or veterinary medicine, but increasing attention is being paid to the problem(1) (12) (14) (15), In some ways the evaluation of animal health programmes should be the easier, for there are fewer ethical problems and economic criteria are of paramount importance in rural practice. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Poisoning of cattle and sheep with superphosphate where the fertilizer was stored within reach of the animals has been reported by Romanenko (1954). In New Zealand losses of pregnant and lactating ewes grazing pastures topdressed with phosphatic fertilizers have been recognixed for several years, and records kept since 1965 show that 39 outbreaks have been reported to Ruakura Animal Health Laboratory (P. J. O'Hara, pers. comm.). Swan and McIntosh (1952) have described the toxicity to dairy cows of grazing pasture topdressed with North African phosphate and superphosphate. The toxic factor was later identified as fluorine (Animal Research Division of the New Zealand Department of Agriculture Reports 1952–3, p. 28; 1953–4, p. 34; 1954–5, p. 35). Phosphatic fertilizers are known to contain 1 to 4% fluorine (Caro, 1964), and the danger of poisoning stock with fluorine in untreated phosphates used as feed supplements has been described by many authors (Emmerling, 1902; Dammann and Manegold, 1904; Gardiner, 1930; Phillips et al., 1934; Hatfield et al., 1942; Udall, 1947; Fincher, 1952; Harris et al., 1952; Crampton, 1954; Dale and Crampton, 1955; Snook, 1962; Rek, 1967; Agarwala et al, 1971). 相似文献

Abstract Extract Arsenic poisoning of man and animals has been a problem since earliest times. That it is still a problem in livestock husbandry in New Zealand was shown by Staples (1964), who reported on 345 cases of poisoning diagnosed at Wallaceville Animal Research Centre over the period 1951 to 1960. 相似文献

Abstract Extract A budgerigar brought to the Wallaceville Animal Research Station for examination showed a severe chronic lesion of the beak and ceres. The lesion was heavily encrusted and showed honey-comb-like pitting (Fig. 1). Four birds of a flock of fifty were similarly affected. Mites were found in scrapings taken from the base of the beak and were identified as Knemidokoptes pilae, Lavoipierre and Griffiths, 1951. 相似文献

Abstract Extract The toxicity of zinc salts to ruminants has been studied by Ott et al (4) (5) (6) (7) and others (3) (16) (2) (12) (9). In much of this work zinc has been incorporated in the feed, a situation more applicable to intensive feedlot farming rather than the New Zealand pastoral situation, or the zinc has been fed for limited periods of time with the possibility that the full potential of zinc for causing toxicity has not been realised. 相似文献

Isolation of leptospira hardjo from the opossum (trichosurus vulpecula) Extract Sir, — In 1971 and 1972 the Department of Health and the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries conducted surveys on the incidence of leptospirosis among fanners and their stock on the Hauraki Plains. As a result, Leptospira hardjo was identified for the first time in New Zealand, being isolated from humans (Christmas et al., 1974) and from dairy cattle (Lake, 1973). Evidence to date suggests that most human infections in New Zealand, whether of L. hardjo or of other serotypes, are contracted while milking. 相似文献
