Mark Jackson  刘仁和 《国外畜牧学(猪与禽)》2001,(4):59-60

猪、禽日粮的传统赖氨酸添加源是盐酸Ｌ 赖氨酸。但是 ,如今有了另一种赖氨酸源 ,这种新赖氨酸源在经济上可比传统的盐酸Ｌ 赖氨酸更为合算。这种新赖氨酸源是一种干燥的颗粒状产品 ,其中含硫酸Ｌ 赖氨酸和发酵副产品 ,由谷氨酸棒状杆菌(Ｃｏｒｙｎｅｂａｃｔｅｒｉｕｍｇｌｕｔａｍｉｃｕｍ)发酵产生 ,产地为美国内布拉斯加州。其商品成品提供 60 %盐酸Ｌ 赖氨酸的赖氨酸替代值。此外 ,其发酵副产品还含有盐酸Ｌ 赖氨酸中不含的其它氨基酸、磷和能量 (表 1 )。美国已用猪和肉鸡对其进行了硫酸Ｌ 赖氨酸和盐酸Ｌ 赖氨酸的比较试验。最近在美…  相似文献

Effects of sub-minimum inhibitory concentration antibiotic levels and temperature on growth kinetics and outer membrane protein expression in Mannheimia haemolytica and Haemophilus somnus          下载免费PDF全文

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of sub-minimum inhibitory concentrations (sub-MICs) of 2 veterinary antibiotic preparations, chlortetracycline (CTC) and chlortetracycline-sulfamethazine (CTC + SMZ), on growth kinetics and outer membrane protein expression in Mannheimia haemolytica and Haemophilus somnus at normal and febrile body temperatures. Sub-minimum inhibitory concentrations of both antibiotics reduced the growth rates of M. haemolytica and H. somnus. Growth of both species was not inhibited when grown at 41 degrees C compared to 37 degrees C. There was no detectable consistent effect of antibiotic or temperature on outer membrane protein expression for either species. Our study indicates that sub-MIC levels of CTC and CTC + SMZ markedly impair growth of clinical M. haemolytica and H. somnus isolates, potentially allowing more effective host clearance during infection.  相似文献

Further Contributions to the Development of a Differential Set of Pea Cultivars (Pisum sativum) to Investigate the Virulence of Isolates of Aphanomyces euteiches

Common root rot (Aphanomyces euteiches Drechs.) has become a very destructive disease in the French pea crops since 1993. For an accurate investigation of the virulence variability among French A. euteiches populations and between French and foreign populations, a new set of differential pea genotypes was developed. Thirty-three American and European pea lines, displaying different levels of resistance, were screened in a growth chamber against two French isolates. Symptoms (disease severity from 0 to 5, evaluating symptom surface on roots and epicotyl) and percentage of top fresh weight (inoculated/uninoculated top fresh weight ratio) were measured. From this screening 12 relatively resistant lines, from various genetic backgrounds, were identified along with a highly susceptible control. This set of 13 genotypes was inoculated under controlled conditions with 14 isolates from France, Sweden, USA, Canada and New Zealand, to investigate genotype–isolate interactions. Root symptoms were rated (disease severity), and a susceptibility/resistance threshold was established at disease severity = 1. Significant quantitative interactions were observed, and five 'resistance patterns' were identified, leading to a set of six pea genotypes: Baccara (susceptible), Capella, MN313, 902131, 552 and PI180693. Fields trials of this set in 1999 and 2000 gave the same resistance rankings than in growth chamber conditions. This set will allow more accurate assessments of the variability in virulence/aggressiveness of A. euteiches isolates from France and foreign countries, and further investigations of the epidemiological and genetic basis of pea–A. euteiches interactions.  相似文献   

Quantifying patch distribution at multiple spatial scales: Applications to wildlife-habitat models     

Johnson  Chris J.  Boyce  Mark S.  Mulders  Robert  Gunn  Anne  Gau  Rob J.  Cluff  H. Dean  Case  Ray L. 《Landscape Ecology》2004,19(8):869-882

Multiscale analyses are widely employed for wildlife-habitat studies. In most cases, however, each scale is considered discrete and little emphasis is placed on incorporating or measuring the responses of wildlife to resources across multiple scales. We modeled the responses of three Arctic wildlife species to vegetative resources distributed at two spatial scales: patches and collections of patches aggregated across a regional area. We defined a patch as a single or homogeneous collection of pixels representing 1 of 10 unique vegetation types. We employed a spatial pattern technique, three-term local quadrat variance, to quantify the distribution of patches at a larger regional scale. We used the distance at which the variance for each of 10 vegetation types peaked to define a moving window for calculating the density of patches. When measures of vegetation patch and density were applied to resource selection functions, the most parsimonious models for wolves and grizzly bears included covariates recorded at both scales. Seasonal resource selection by caribou was best described using a model consisting of only regional scale covariates. Our results suggest that for some species and environments simple patch-scale models may not capture the full range of spatial variation in resources to which wildlife may respond. For mobile animals that range across heterogeneous areas we recommend selection models that integrate resources occurring at a number of spatial scales. Patch density is a simple technique for representing such higher-order spatial patterns.  相似文献   

Advances in echocardiography.     

Mark A Oyama 《Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice》2004,34(5):1083-104, v

Echocardiography is an exceptionally useful technique for diagnosing cardiovascular disease in small animals. It is noninvasive and provides a wealth of data concerning cardiac morphology and function. For many patients, echocardiography is the definitive diagnostic tool. A well-performed study coalesces the findings of the physical examination, electrocardiogram, and radiographs into a clearly defined diagnosis on which treatment decisions can be based. More so than other diagnostic techniques, echocardiography is highly operator dependent and relies on the proper acquisition and interpretation of results by an examiner who is familiar with the principles, capabilities, and limitations of ultrasound imaging.This article reviews the basics of echocardiography, measurement of cardiac dimensions, and assessment of cardiac function. Within these sections, emerging technologies that expand the capabilities of the echocardiographic examination are introduced.  相似文献   

IMAGING DIAGNOSIS: MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING OF A CERVICAL WOODEN FOREIGN BODY IN A DOG     

Benjamin Young  DVM    Lisa Klopp  DVM  PhD    Mark Albrecht  DVM  DACVS    Susan Kraft  DVM  PhD 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》2004,45(6):538-541

This article describes the discovery of a chronic cervical wooden foreign body ventral to the left transverse processes of the cranial cervical spine using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a dog that presented with chronic neck pain and lameness. The dog did not exhibit dysphagia or chronic draining tracts, the most common signs of the presumed cause, that of a penetrating oropharyngeal foreign body. The foreign body itself was represented on MR images as an oval straight-edged core within an inflammatory tissue reaction. The wood was slightly hyperintense on T2- and isointense on T1-weighted images relative to muscle. Surrounding this was a more conspicuous contrast-enhancing reactive tissue rim that was hyperintense on all pulse sequences. Adjacent musculature also exhibited diffuse edema and contrast enhancement that extended around the left cervical vertebral transverse processes and local intervertebral nerve roots. The foreign body was found to be a wooden stick upon surgical removal. MRI is an excellent method for visualizing the inflammatory tissue reactions associated with soft-tissue foreign bodies because of its contrast resolution and depiction of anatomy in multiple imaging planes.  相似文献
