Onset of immunity with Mycoplasma synoviae: comparison of the live attenuated vaccine MS-H (Vaxsafe MS) with its wild-type parent strain (86079/7NS)     

Jones JF  Whithear KG  Scott PC  Noormohammadi AH 《Avian diseases》2006,50(1):82-87

The onset of protective immunity with MS-H was determined through experimental challenge and compared with the parent strain 86079/7NS. MS-H vaccinates and 86079/7NS inoculates were challenged at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 wk after vaccination, then examined 2 wk after challenge for signs of respiratory disease. Serologic results indicated that 100% of MS-H vaccinates had antibodies to MS by 3 wk after vaccination and 100% of 86079/7NS inoculates were positive by 2 wk after inoculation. From 3 wk after vaccination, MS-H vaccinates had a significantly lower incidence of air sac lesions and, from 4 wk after vaccination, a significantly lower air sac lesion severity. In 86079/7NS-inoculated birds, a significantly lower incidence of air sac lesions was observed from 1 wk after inoculation, and air sac lesion severity was significantly lower than the unvaccinated controls at 3 wk after inoculation. It would appear that, under the conditions of this experiment, protective immunity elicited by MS-H appeared at 4 wk after vaccination, slightly later than the appearance of serum antibody. Although the MS-H vaccine was slower to establish protective immunity than 86079/7NS, there was no significant difference between the two strains by 4 wk after vaccination or inoculation.  相似文献   

Use of a multifenestrated indwelling lavage system for treatment of septic digital teno-synovitis in cattle     

DE ANDERSON  D. ALLEN  G. ST-JEAN  AH PARKS 《Australian veterinary journal》1997,75(11):796-799

Septic tenosynovitis was diagnosed in seven cattle on the basis of history, physical examination, radiographs, cytological examination of tendon sheath fluids, and microbial culture. A commercially available indwelling multifenestrated silicone rubber drain was used to perform frequent lavage of the flexor tendon sheaths. The sepsis resolved in all cattle. Five of six cattle for which long-term (> 1 year) follow-up information was available were clinically sound on the affected limb and had remained productive members of the herd.  相似文献   

Epidemiology of recent outbreaks of infectious laryngotracheitis in poultry in Australia     

Blacker HP  Kirkpatrick NC  Rubite A  O'Rourke D  Noormohammadi AH 《Australian veterinary journal》2011,89(3):89-94

Objective Over the past 3 years, numerous outbreaks of infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT) have occurred in poultry in Australia. The objectives of this study were to identify the viral strains involved in the recent outbreaks and to determine possible epidemiological links between these outbreaks. Procedure A combination of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analyses of several genes of the ILT virus was used to identify genetic differences in field/vaccine ILT virus isolates. In a previous study, these procedures had demonstrated five classes (1–5) in Australia. Results Analysis of 92 field ILT viruses demonstrated four new classes: 6, 7, 8 and 9. Class 6 was responsible for four outbreaks in one Victorian broiler company and demonstrated to be distinct from other Australian strains of ILT. Class 7 was the Nobilis ILT vaccine (Intervet Pty Ltd). Class 8 was responsible for the majority of the outbreaks in New South Wales and was phylogenetically close to class 7. On one occasion, classes 7 and 8 were identified in an outbreak on a Victorian farm that had used the Nobilis ILT vaccine. Class 9, also phylogenetically close to classes 7 and 8, was found only in New South Wales. The previously identified class 2 was also found to be responsible for a large number of outbreaks, mainly in Victoria. Conclusion The results demonstrate that, epidemiologically, most outbreaks of ILT in New South Wales are unrelated to those in Victoria and suggest a link between classes 8 and 9 and the Nobilis ILT vaccine (class 7).  相似文献   

Uptake of Heavy Metals by Mycorrhizal Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)     

Mohammad Rezvani  Mohammad Reza Ardakani  Farhad Rejali  Faezeh Zaefarian  Sadollah Teimouri  Ghorban Noormohammadi 《Journal of plant nutrition》2015,38(6):904-919

It has been previously indicated that arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can enhance the bioremediation abilities of their host plant. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is a crop plant with some unique physiological properties, such as tolerance to salinity. However, its tolerance to other stresses such as heavy metals must be tested. Accordingly, it was hypothesized that barley can be efficiently used to treat heavy metals in symbiotic and non-symbiotic association with AM fungi. In a greenhouse experiment barley plants were inoculated with the AM species Glomus mosseae and grown in a soil polluted with cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), and lead (Pb). Relative to Cd and Co, mycorrhizal barley absorbed significantly higher amounts of Pb. AM species also significantly decreased Cd and Co uptake by barley indicating the alleviating effects of G. mosseae on the stress of such heavy metals.  相似文献   

CHARACTERIZATION OF PHYSIOLOGIC 18F‐FDG UPTAKE WITH PET‐CT IN DOGS     

MIN‐SU LEE  AH‐RA LEE  MI‐AE JUNG  IN‐HYE LEE  JI‐HYE CHOI  HYUN‐WOO CHUNG  SOON‐WUK JEONG  SANG‐SOEP NAHM  KI‐DONG EOM 《Veterinary radiology & ultrasound》2010,51(6):670-673

We evaluated the whole body distribution of 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F]fluoro‐d ‐glucose (¹⁸F‐FDG) in seven beagle dogs using positron emission tomography/computed tomography. The mean and maximum standard uptake values (SUV) for various tissues were computed. The SUV of the aortic blood pool was 0.65±0.19. Moderate uptake was present in brain (3.40±1.01). Mild uptake was present in orbital muscles, soft palate, laryngeal and pharyngeal region, mandibular salivary gland, myocardium, liver, pancreas, kidney, and intestine. ¹⁸F‐FDG uptake would be normally higher in these tissues because of normal physiologic activity. Mean and maximum SUV values of the eye, skeletal muscle, bone tissue, spleen, adrenal gland, stomach, tongue, gall bladder, and lung were similar to or lower than that of the aortic blood pool. These data provide a normal baseline for comparing pathologic ¹⁸F‐FDG uptake.  相似文献   

Detection of antibodies to Mycoplasma gallisepticum vaccine ts-11 by an autologous pMGA enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay     

Noormohammadi AH  Browning GF  Cowling PJ  O'Rourke D  Whithear KG  Markham PF 《Avian diseases》2002,46(2):405-411

Mycoplasma gallisepticum is a poultry pathogen that causes respiratory disease and loss of egg production worldwide. A live attenuated vaccine, ts-11, has been used for control of M. gallisepticum in several countries. The rapid serum agglutination test is usually used as an indicator of flock response to vaccination; however, in some flocks, the detected response may be weak or absent. With the use of specific monoclonal antibodies against M. gallisepticum strain S6 pMGA in immunoaffinity purification, the major membrane antigen of ts-11 was purified. An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed with the purified antigen, and its potential for detection of antibodies induced after ts-11 vaccination was compared with an indirect ELISA with M. gallisepticum strain S6 pMGA. In the presence of high levels of ts-11-induced antibodies, both antigens detected similar numbers of positive sera. However, when lower levels of antibodies were present, ts-11 pMGA showed a higher sensitivity than S6 pMGA. Further examination of ts-11 pMGA with Mycoplasma synoviae-infected chicken sera revealed that ts-11 pMGA is specific for M. gallisepticum antibodies. With a panel of sera from ts-11-vaccinated or non-ts-11-vaccinated field chickens, the ts-11 pMGA ELISA was found to be more sensitive than the commercial rapid serum agglutination test in detecting antibodies to ts-11 vaccine. The results from this study suggest that the major membrane antigen of M. gallisepticum may have slightly different antigenic profiles in different strains, thereby necessitating the use of autologous antigens in serodiagnostic assays to increase sensitivity of the tests for mycoplasma antibodies. Thus, the low level of antibody response after ts-11 vaccination is, at least partially, due to the low ability of the current diagnostic antigens to bind ts-11 antibodies.  相似文献
