In this study, viral pathogens associated with nine outbreaks of naturally occurring dairy calf pneumonia in Mashhad area
of Khorasan Razavi province from September 2008 to May 2009 were assessed. Five diseased calves from each farm were chosen
for examination. Acute and convalescent serum samples were taken from calves with signs of respiratory disease. Sera were
analyzed for antibodies to bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1), bovine respiratory syncytial
virus (BRSV), parainfluenza virus type 3 (PI-3V), and bovine adenovirus-3 (BAV-3) by indirect ELISA kits. Among 42 serum samples
collected at sample 1, seroprevalence values for viruses BHV-1, BVDV, BRSV, PI-3V, and BAV-3 were 61.9% (26), 57.1% (24),
64.2% (27), 90% (38), and 61.9% (26), respectively. Seroconversion to BVDV, BRSV, PI-3V, and BAV-3 occurred in 11.9% (5),
16.6% (7), 26.1% (11), and 21.4% (9) of animals, and 52.3% (22) had generated antibodies against one or more viral infections
at sample 2. In addition, no significant relationship between seroprevalence of BHV-1, BVDV, BRSV, PI-3V, and BAV-3 and dairy
herd size was observed (P > 0.05). According to serological findings, BHV-1, BVDV, BRSV, PI-3V, and BAV-3 are common pathogens of the dairy calf pneumonia
in dairy herds in Mashhad area of Khorasan Razavi province, Iran. 相似文献

下载免费PDF全文 A 56‐d feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary mannan‐oligosaccharides (MOS) and fructo‐oligosaccharide (FOS) on growth indices, body composition, intestinal bacterial community and digestive enzymes activity of regal peacock. A total of 240 fish were randomly distributed to 15 experimental units (40‐L aquariums) of 16 fish each. These replicates were randomly assigned to one of five treatments in a 2 × 2 + 1 factorial arrangement. The treatments were control diet (no MOS and FOS), diet A (2 gkg?1 MOS + 1.5 g kg?1 FOS), diet B (2 g kg?1 MOS + 3 g kg?1 FOS), diet C (4 g kg?1 MOS + 1.5 g kg?1 FOS) or diet D (4 g kg?1 MOS + 3 g kg?1 FOS). The results showed that feeding diet C increased specific growth rate and protein efficiency ratio and decreased feed conversion ratio compared with control diet. Higher intestinal trypsin activity and increased Lactobacillus counts were observed in fish fed diets B and C. All diets significantly elevated body protein deposition and intestinal amylase activity compared to the control diet. In conclusion, the diet supplemented with 4 g kg?1 MOS + 1.5 g kg?1 FOS was advantageous over other MOS + FOS‐supplemented diets, with respect to growth performance and health benefits of regal peacock. 相似文献

Introduction: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common genetic kidney disorders with the incidence of 1 in 1,000 births. ADPKD is genetically heterogeneous with two genes identified: PKD1 (16p13.3, 46 exons) and PKD2 (4q21, 15 exons). Eighty five percent of the patients with ADPKD have at least one mutation in the PKD1 gene. Genetic studies have demonstrated an important allelic variability among patients, but very few data are known about the genetic variation among Iranian populations. Methods: In this study, exon direct sequencing of PKD1 was performed in a seven-year old boy with ADPKD and in his parents. The patient’s father was ADPKD who was affected without any kidney dysfunction, and the patient’s mother was congenitally missing one kidney. Results: Molecular genetic testing found a mutation in all three members of this family. It was a missense mutation GTG>ATG at position 3057 in exon 25 of PKD1. On the other hand, two novel missense mutations were reported just in the 7-year-old boy: ACA>GCA found in exon 15 at codon 2241 and CAC>AAC found in exon 38 at codon 3710. For checking the pathogenicity of these mutations, exons 15, 25, and 38 of 50 unrelated normal cases were sequenced. Conclusion: our findings suggested that GTG>ATG is a polymorphism with high frequency (60%) as well as ACA>GCA and CAC>AAC are polymorphisms with frequencies of 14% and 22%, respectively in the population of Southwest Iran.

Objective To validate a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based method, Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus‐PCR (ERIC‐PCR), for the fingerprinting of Haemophilus parasuis strains and to use that method to differentiate isolates from apparently related outbreaks of Glässers disease on three pig farms. Design ERIC‐PCR was evaluated by comparing 15 different strains that represented all 15 recognised serovars in the Kielstein‐Rapp‐Gabrielson (KRG) scheme for serotyping H parasuis. Next, ERIC‐PCR was used to examine 14 Australian field isolates of H parasuis; 12 collected from three farms suffering apparently related outbreaks of Glässers disease and two from two other farms with no known connection. Results The 15 serovar reference strains all gave unique, reproducible ERIC‐PCR fingerprints. The 12 isolates from the three apparently related outbreaks all gave a single fingerprint, which was distinct from any seen in the 15 serovar reference strains and the two other Australian field isolates in the studied farms. The confirmation that all 12 isolates were the same strain allowed the development of a prevention and control program that has prevented the emergence of any further outbreaks of Glässer disease on the three farms. Conclusion ERIC‐PCR is a suitable technique for the differentiation of unrelated strains of H parasuis. The finding that the 12 field isolates of H parasuis all shared the same fingerprint is strong evidence that there was a common source of infection on all three farms. This study has shown, for the first time, that ERIC‐PCR is a suitable technique for the sub‐typing of H parasuis and useful for studying the epidemiology of outbreaks of Glässers disease. 相似文献

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of lemon verbena powder and vitamin C on performance and immunity of broilers under heat stress. The experiment was carried out with a total of 160‐day‐old male Ross 308 broiler chickens in a completely randomized design. From 25 days of age, the birds were assigned to four diets including control diet and treatment diets which were supplemented with 2 levels of lemon verbena (0.5% and 1.0%) and one level of vitamin C (250 mg/kg) in 16‐floor pens with 10 chickens each and reared to 42 days of age. To induce chronic heat stress, birds were exposed to an ambient temperature of 35 ± 2 °C for 8 h daily (from 09:00 AM until 17:00 PM) between 25 and 42 days of age. At the end of experiment, one chick/pen was randomly selected, and the performance and blood parameters were evaluated. Dietary supplementation of 1.0% lemon verbena increased (p < 0.05) average weight gain and feed intake by 5.81% and 3.29%, and reduced feed conversion ratio by 2.59% respectively compared to control group. Birds fed diets containing 1.0% lemon verbena had significantly higher relative weight of bursa of fabricius and breast (p < 0.05). LDL decreased by 15.85% and 17.57%, for birds fed 0.5% and 1.0% lemon verbena respectively. The ratio of heterophyl to lymphocyte was reduced (p < 0.05) by 20.68% via significant decrease in heterophyl by 15.55% and significant increase in lymphocyte by 4.51% in birds fed lemon verbena at the rate of 1.0% compared to those fed the control diet. 1.0% lemon verbena and vitamin C elevated (p = 0.0005) the level of glutathione peroxidase by 51.81% and 27.90%, respectively. In conclusion, lemon verbena and vitamin C improved some performance data and blood metabolites which somehow suppressed the negative effects of heat stress. 相似文献

To compare the reproductive performance of spring and autumn forms of Persian sturgeon males, Acipenser persicus, the relative abundance of spermiating and non‐spermiating males, milt quality, sex steroids and cortisol were investigated after pituitary preparation (PP) treatment and at the time of spermiation. Our results showed that higher numbers of spring males are spermiated after PP treatment than autumn individuals. The autumn spermiating males had higher and lower values of sperm density and duration of motility than spring males respectively. The milt volume was higher in spring males than in autumn individuals. The percentage of motility was statistically equal in both the groups examined. In both forms of brooders, the serum levels of testosterone (T), 11‐ketotestosterone (11‐KT), progesterone (P), 17α, 20β, 21‐trihydroxy‐4‐pregnen‐3‐one (20βS) and cortisol (C) increased after PP treatment, although such increases did not occur in non‐spermiating males. Our results showed the probable involvement of 20βs, P, T, 11‐KT and C in the final maturation of Persian sturgeon. In addition, it was demonstrated that the spring form of Persian sturgeon shows better reproductive performance than the autumn form in terms of a response to artificial induction and milt quality. 相似文献

Identification of casual mutations in Hereditary Multiple Exostoses (HME) is important because of similar conditions in which multiple exostoses occur. Therefore mutation analysis can help to confirm the clinical diagnosis and to improve the management of therapy. HME is an inherited disorder of bone growth. HME can be referred to by various names such as Heredity Multiple Exostoses, Hereditary Multiple Osteochondromata, Multiple Carthaginous Exostoses, etc. People who have HME grow exostoses, or bony bumps, on their bones which can vary in size, location and number depending on the individual. HME is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with an estimated prevalence of 1/50,000 in western countries. At least three loci (EXT1, EXT2 and EXT3) thought to be involved in this skeletal disease. Approximately 90% of affected families possess mutations in the coding regions of EXT1 and EXT2 genes and the majority of these mutations cause loss of function. EXT1 and EXT2 genes encode related members of a putative tumor suppressor family. In this first report from Iran we identified a frame shift mutation (1100-1101 insA) in exon 3 of EXT1 gene in a family being suspicious of HME. This mutation leads to a premature stop codon and previously not described. Additionally, we have found an unreported silent mutation in the exon six of EXT1 gene with uncertain significance. 相似文献

To evaluate the effects of different level of Na salinity (0, 3, 6 and 9 dS m(-1)) on growth, yield and yield component of Kabuli (Hashem and Jam) and Desi (Kaka and Pirooz) chickpea cultivars a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out in Research Greenhouse of Mokrian Agricultural Extension Center near Mahabad, Iran at 2006. Seeds of four chickpea cultivars were grown under 0, 3, 6 and 9 dS m(-1) levels of salinity until maturity. Salinity reduced the plant growth, flower, pod and seed number and seed weight. As increase in salinity, the undesirable effect of Na+ was more pronounced and reached the highest value at 9 dS m(-1) in all cultivars. Four chickpea cultivar have different responses to salinity and the Kabuli cultivars seemed to have a greater capacity for salt tolerance compared to Desi cultivars. Hahshem cultivar has the highest salinity tolerance among all cultivars. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different forms and doses of rosemary on chemical, microbial, and sensory properties of rainbow trout fed nine different diets: control (C), 20 g.kg?1 rosemary powder (20RP), 40 g.kg?1 rosemary powder (40RP), 0.3 g.kg?1 rosemary extract (0.3RE), 0.6 g.kg?1 rosemary extract (0.6RE), 0.15 g.kg?1 rosemary nanopowder (0.15RNP), 0.3 g.kg?1 rosemary nanopowder (0.3RNP), 0.15 g.kg?1 butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) (0.15BHA), and 0.3 g.kg?1 BHA (0.3BHA). After 8 weeks’ feeding, the fish fillets were sampled on the 1st, 4th, 8th, 12th, and 16th days and then stored on 4°C. Lower value of pH, peroxide value (PV), total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), free fatty acids (FFA), and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) were reported in fish fed with RP, RE, RNP, and BHA; among them, RNP groups had the lowest properties (p < 0.05). Furthermore, lower total viable aerobic bacterial counts (TVC) and psychotropic counts (PTC) were observed in the fillets of the fish fed with rosemary treatments, especially in RNP treatments (7.52–9.41 log10 CFU.g?1), along with a slower spoilage in terms of sensory factors (texture, color, odor, and overall) on the 16th day. Finally, use of natural antioxidant nanorosemary in the diet may positively affect fish fillet quality and delay post-mortem deterioration. 相似文献

The oak decline is known as one of the most destructive complex diseases causing high economic losses around the world, especially in Iran. The main objective of the present study was to investigate the possible role of bacteria as causative agents of oak decline in the Zagros forests of Iran. To do this, stem, root and leaf samples were taken from symptomatic Persian oak trees (Quercus brantii) in different zones of Zagros forests (Ilam Province, Iran). From 150 bacterial isolates, 20 showed pathogenicity against Geranium seedlings. Among 20 hypersensitivity test positive strains, four strains showed pathogenicity against oak saplings. Based on morphological and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, three strains were identified as Bacillus pumilus and one strain as non‐sporulating Gram‐negative Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. Pathogenicity studies of different B. pumilus and S. maltophilia strains revealed that they have potential to cause the disease in oak saplings and symptoms of disorder in Persian oak trees. To our knowledge, there are no previous records of B. pumilus and S. maltophilia causing decline on Fagaceous trees like Q. brantii. More detailed field and molecular studies are required to confirm the absolute role of such bacteria in occurrence of oak decline in Zagros forests. 相似文献
