Quantitation of natural antibodies to infectious bursal disease in Nigerian indigenous chickens     

E O Sokale  A Oyejide 《Comparative immunology, microbiology and infectious diseases》1986,9(1):53-57

Serum samples collected from 687 indigenous chickens located in small scattered groups in four states of Nigeria were examined for antibodies to infectious bursal disease (IBD) virus by the agar-gel precipitation (AGPT) and counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIEOP) tests. 51 of the positive samples were further titrated by each of the two techniques. CIEOP detected more positive reactors (74.59%) than AGPT (58.95%). CIEOP also detected higher antibody levels among the reactors [geometric mean titre (GMT) of 51 samples was 23.02] when compared to AGPT. GMT of the same 51 samples was 21.8. The prevalence of antibodies to IBD virus in the indigenous chickens ranged from 64.7 to 77.7% CIEOP reactors between states. Since reports of IBD outbreaks among these chickens are rare unlike the situation among commercial poultry flocks, it was concluded that local chickens probably act as carriers of IBD virus.  相似文献

以 6种绢丝昆虫的茧壳为材料 ,对茧丝蛋白酶抑制剂的含量及热稳定性进行了研究。结果表明 :家蚕品种间茧丝蛋白酶抑制剂的含量差异极显著 ,外层丝中含量较多 ,F1代的含量呈双亲中间型 ,偏向于含量较多的亲本 ,雌雄间含量无显著差异 ;家蚕茧丝蛋白酶抑制剂对热稳定性较强 ;天蚕绿茧、野蚕的茧丝中有少量的蛋白酶抑制剂存在 ,蓖麻蚕的茧丝中有微量蛋白酶抑制剂存在 ,天蚕黄茧、柞蚕茧、樗蚕茧的茧丝中基本无蛋白酶抑制剂存在。  相似文献   

The failure of selenium supplementation to prevent copper-induced liver damage in Fischer 344 rats.

This study evaluates the ability of selenium (Se) supplementation to prevent experimental copper (Cu)-induced hepatocellular damage. Weanling male Fischer 344 rats were randomly assigned to groups of 15, 3 groups (A,B,C) were fed Cu-loaded diets (containing 2000 microg/g copper, added as CuSO4) and different levels of Se (added as Na2SeO3 x 5H2O) as follows: A) Cu-loaded/Se adequate diet (0.4 microg/g Se, fed basis); B) Cu-loaded/Se-supplemented diet (2 microg/g Se); and C) Cu-loaded/Se-deficient diet (< 0.2 microg/g). Three additional groups (D,E,F) were fed diets containing adequate levels of Cu (14 microg/g Cu, fed basis) and different levels of Se as follows: D) Cu-adequate/Se-adequate diet; E) Cu-adequate/Se-supplemented diet (2 microg/g Se); and F) Cu-adequate/Se-deficient (< 0.2 microg/g) diet. After 4, 8, and 12 weeks on the experimental diets, liver samples were processed for histology, histochemistry, metal analysis, glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) measurement, and quantification of malondialdehyde (MDA). Morphologic changes characteristic of Cu-associated hepatitis, without an increase in hepatic MDA levels, were seen in all Cu-loaded rats in each sampling. Similar changes occurred in rats fed Se-adequate, Se-supplemented and Se-deficient diets. This study demonstrates that Fischer 344 rats fed 2000 microg/g Cu develop morphologic changes due to Cu toxicity without evidence of lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, Se supplementation does not result in protection against Cu-induced liver injury.  相似文献

Cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest.     

E C?té 《Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice》2001,31(6):1129-45, v

Severe heart disease may cause hypotension and hypoperfusion, and ultimately circulation may cease altogether. These two clinical syndromes are cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest, respectively. This review summarizes the causes and clinical features of each, and describes the treatment options available to clinicians managing patients in cardiogenic shock.  相似文献
