通过检测7株猪链球菌9型（SS9）国内分离株的毒力基因，比对7株SS9荚膜合成基因cps9j的300bp碱基序列，以及进行7株SS9对小鼠的毒力试验和免疫保护试验，初步探讨了国内SS9的毒力特性。结果显示，7株SS9均缺失胞外因子（epf）和溶血素（sly）基因，溶茵酶释放蛋白基因（mrp）存在于GZ0665和GD0606株，off2仅存于GZ0665株；病猪脑脊液分离株GZ0665与从健康猪扁桃体分离的6株SS9的cps9j同源性低；在7株SS9分离株和SS2分离株HA9801中，只有GZ0665和GD0606株能致死小鼠；用灭活的GZ0665菌株免疫的小鼠对同源菌株GZ0665及GD0606株攻击的保护率均为100％（10／10），用灭活的GD0606和未灭活的GD0627菌株免疫的小鼠对GD0606株攻击的保护率分别为80％（8／10）和50％（5／10），而对GZ0665株攻击的保护率分别为60％（6／10）和30％（3／10）。证实，SS9病猪脑脊液分离株的毒力基因有别于SS9健康猪扁桃体分离株和SS2。表明，小鼠可以用来区分SS9病猪脑脊液分离株与健康猪扁桃体分离株的致病力。 相似文献

3株嗜水气单胞菌弱毒株的毒力相关特性分析 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
对健康鲫鱼和水体环境中分离的3株嗜水气单胞菌NJ-4、NJ-13和CS-13的毒力相关特性进行分析。采用PCR技术检测该菌5种主要毒力基因：气溶素（aer）、细胞毒性肠毒素（act）、细胞兴奋性肠毒素（alt）、温敏胞外蛋白酶（eprCAI）和丝氨酸蛋白酶（ahp）,并进行溶血性、溶蛋白性、细胞毒性、细胞黏附特性和主要外膜蛋白（MOMP）图谱分析,以及斑马鱼致病性试验。结果显示：NJ-4不合上述5种毒力基因,NJ-13只含有ahp基因,CS-13仅具备aer基因。3个菌株培养上清均不溶血、不溶蛋白;NJ-4和CS-13培养上清不能致细胞病变,NJ-13上清对细胞的毒力效价达1：128;而强毒株BSK-10培养上清的溶血价、溶蛋白效价和细胞毒力效价分别为1：128、1：256和1：256。NJ-4、NJ13和CS-13对HEp-2细胞有一定的黏附能力,但与强毒株BSK-10相比,黏附能力较弱。NJ-4、NJ-13和CS-13的培养液上清均不致斑马鱼死亡,菌体有一定致病作用,对斑马鱼的LD50超过10^8CFU／mL;而BSK-10培养上清和菌体致病性均很强,菌体对斑马鱼的LD50小于10^5CFU／mL。NJ-4、CS-13的MOMP条带与BSK-10相似度很高,而与NJ-13有一定差别,可能与菌株的来源有一定关系。结果表明,3株细菌均属弱毒株,特别是NJ-4的毒力最弱。 相似文献

猪链球菌耐药性产生对其毒力的影响 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4
为探讨猪链球菌2型菌株耐药性产生对其毒力的影响,作者采用次抑菌浓度的青霉素和红霉素诱导猪链球菌2型临床分离敏感株HA9801成为青霉素、红霉素耐药株,并对亲本株与诱导耐药株的半数致死量（LD50）、溶血环、毒力因子溶菌酶释放蛋白（MRP）、胞外蛋白因子（EF）和荚膜多糖（CPS）及对小鼠的组织损伤进行比较。结果显示：次抑菌浓度的红霉素和青霉素可以诱导耐药性的产生,但耐药株与亲本株比较,溶血性、LD50、MRP、CPS、EF及对组织的损伤程度均与亲本株无显著差异（P〈0．05）。结果表明：猪链球菌2型HA9801株在获得耐药性的同时,仍能保持与亲本株相似的毒力,其毒力不会因耐药性的获得而降低。 相似文献

The biochemical, morphological and virulence profiles of 44 Bacillus anthracis isolates, obtained from various localities and carcass remains of wild animals in the Kruger National Park, South Africa, were examined. The morphological characteristics tested for included: the formation of capsules on bicarbonate agar, the motility of the vegetative organism, the presence of haemolysis on blood tryptose agar, the sensitivity of the vegetative organism to bacteriophage, the production of lecithinase on egg yolk agar, the liquefaction (hydrolysis) of gelatine and the capability of each isolate to produce mucoid colonies when grown on bicarbonate agar with horse serum in an atmosphere containing CO2. The API 50CHB and 20E systems were used to evaluate the biochemical activity of each isolate. The virulence of each isolate was determined by its LD50, using an inbred line of Balb/C mice. A clear pattern in the biochemical reactions emerged that appeared to be specific for each isolate. On the API 50CHB test strip, only 2 of the 44 isolates gave a 100% positive reaction to all 10 of the biochemical substances to which it was supposed to react, 9 gave positive results to 90%, 19 were positive to 80%, and 14 were positive to 70%. The reactions on the API 20E were completely different from what was expected, with only 1 of the biochemical activities (gelatinase production) showing a positive reaction to all the isolates. The virulence test indicated that 27/44 isolates could be regarded as highly virulent with a LD50 of less than 1,000 organisms, and the rest of the isolates as virulent with a LD 50 of 1,001-10,000 organisms.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Interactions between the beta-adrenergic agonist salbutamol and genotype on meat quality in pigs 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Salbutamol (2.7 ppm) fed to pigs between weaning and slaughter increased ADG (5%), dressing percentage (2%) and cross-sectional area of the longissimus (LD) muscle (14%). In fatter, White-line-sired pigs, but not in leaner, Meat-line-sired animals, it reduced backfat thickness (25%). Liver weight and glycogen concentration also were decreased. In neither genotype were there effects of Salbutamol on pH45, drip loss or reflectance value of the LD, but ultimate pH was elevated in semimembranosus (SM), adductor (AD) and supraspinatus (SS) muscles, resulting in reduced color saturation values. Total muscle heme pigment concentrations were reduced by 10 (SS) to 19% (LD and SM) and the intramuscular fat concentration of the AD, but not the LD, was reduced by 21%. Treated pigs had LD and SM muscles that when measured instrumentally were 15 and 8% tougher, respectively, after cooking, but the texture of the SS was not significantly altered by treatment. Salbutamol increased plasma lactate and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) concentrations. Compared with White-line-sired animals, Meat-line-sired pigs had a higher dressing percentage (2%) and LD muscles with larger cross-sectional area (13%). They also had higher circulating CPK levels. 相似文献

为了解天津地区2型猪链球菌的流行及耐药情况,本研究收集该地区部分规模化养猪场疑似猪链球菌病病料317份,通过病原分离培养、染色特性观察、生化试验、PCR扩增等方法进行鉴定,并对分离菌进行致病性及药敏试验。结果从样品中分离鉴定出11株2型猪链球菌。对小鼠的致病力试验结果显示,应用0.5×108 CFU/mL的细菌攻击小鼠,11株2型猪链球菌分离株中有6株具有致死性,其中1株致死率较强,5株致死率较弱。药敏试验结果表明,11株分离菌对9种临床常见药物均表现出很强的耐药性,其中对阿米卡星、四环素和强力霉素耐药性最强,耐药率达到100.00%;且所有分离株均呈多重耐药,其中4个分离株为9重耐药,占36.36%（4/11）。本试验结果表明,天津地区存在2型猪链球菌感染情况,且对多种抗菌药均产生了耐药性,应引起养殖户的高度重视,在防制猪链球菌病时,应有针对性地合理、科学、规范用药和交替用药。 相似文献

Five inbred strains of mice were tested for their susceptibility to Streptococcus suis type 2 including the type strain, two isolates from meningitis in pigs and two isolates from tonsils of clinically healthy pigs. C57BL/6, ICR and ddY strain mice showed lower susceptibility to all strains of S. suis type 2 than BALB/c and SS strain mice. The type strain and the isolates from diseased pigs produced septicaemia and meningitis in BALB/c and SS mice inoculated with 10(8) colony forming unit of the bacteria and 60 to 100% of these infected mice died. On the other hand, mice inoculated with the isolates from healthy pigs showed mild clinical signs but none of them died. In BALB/c mice which died or developed nervous signs, the purulent meningo-encephalitis, myocarditis, ophthalmitis, labyrinthitis and otitis media were observed. S. suis type 2 antigen was demonstrated in these lesions by immunoperoxidase staining using rabbit S. suis type 2 antiserum. These results were similar to those in the experimentally infected pigs with these virulent and avirulent strains against mice. These results indicate that BALB/c and SS strains of mice are useful as an experimental model of S. suis type 2 infections in pigs, and that there are virulent and avirulent strains against mice and pigs among the strains of S. suis type 2. 相似文献

Twenty four cloned isolates of Aujeszky's disease virus collected from outbreaks of Aujeszky's disease from 1981 through 1989 in Japan were characterized by their restriction endonuclease (RE) cleavage patterns, virulence for mice and thymidine kinase (TK) activity. All of the isolates belonged to Type II of the four types classified by Herrmann et al. (1984). Based on the number and migration rate of the restriction fragments, the isolates were divided into 7 groups with Bam HI, 9 groups with Kpn I, 3 groups with BstE II and 2 groups with Sal I. The results indicate that the RE analysis, especially with Bam HI and Kpn I, provides useful epidemiological information about field isolates of Aujeszky's disease virus. All of the isolates showed virulence for mice ranging from 6.9 to 63.0 (PFU/LD50). It was interesting that the Nagano S87 strain, which had the highest virulence for the mouse, showed unique RE cleavage patterns with four enzymes. On the other hand, ara-T-resistant, TK-negative strain, was avirulent for mice (greater than 10(6.4) PFU/LD50). All of the isolates investigated in this study showed TK activity by the thymidine plaque autoradiography. 相似文献

In order to know the effect of in vitro passages on the pathogenicity of the Salmonella gallinarum strain INTA 91, a lyophilized culture was compared with the same strain recently isolated from a sick bird. The mean lethal dose (LD50) of the orally administered lyophilized culture was determined as 2.04 x 10(8) colony-forming units (CFU)/chicken. There was no correlation between the LD50 dose and the degree of disease produced; doses 10 or 100 times higher than the calculated LD50 did not produce a more severe disease. In trial 1, chickens were challenged with 1.02 x 10(9) CFU per chicken (5LD50) of the lyophilized strain and reached 52.2% mortality at the end of the assay. In trial 2, three different groups of chickens were infected with a recent isolate of the same strain: 2.04 x 10(8) CFU/chicken, 4.1 x 10(8) CFU/chicken, and 2.1 x 10(9) CFU/chicken (i.e., 1LD50, 2LD50, and 10LD50 of the dose calculated for the lyophilized strain, respectively). These chicken groups presented higher mortality rates (90%, 100%, and 95%, respectively) than previous trials, showing that the S. gallinarum strain used here increased its virulence by in vivo infected chicken passage. In all assays, the disease started after an incubation period of around 5-6 days. To obtain reliable and reproducible results in future challenge experiments, a fixed limited number of in vitro passages of the S. gallinarum strain must be determined. 相似文献

Six strains of Escherichia coli, isolated from urine of dogs with urinary tract infection (UTI), were examined to assess of urovirulence factors (UVFs) in the pathogenesis of UTI in an experimental pyelonephritis mouse model. From the results of ID50 and LD50, isolates having different UVFs in the same O serotypes varied in pathogenicity, and isolates having the same UVFs in different O serotypes had nearly the same pathogenicity. Histopathogenic examination revealed that the presence of pap, hly and cnfl contributed greatly to the development of upper UTI. It has also been suggested that hly and cnfl significantly related to the LD50 of the strain in the mouse model, confirming that UVFs are closely related to the pathogenicity of canine UTI. 相似文献
