A simple method for the quantitative determination of sperm aggregation     

S Blottner  M Fasinski  G Zapff 《Archiv fuer experimentelle veterinaermedizin》1989,43(3):455-461

Described in this paper are 2 methodological variants for photometric recording of sperm aggregation. Heparin was used to induce aggregation. One of the working principles was related to aggregation-associated alteration of turbidity in an agitated cell suspension, measured by the KZM-1 coagulation-time meter, in analogy to measurement of thrombocyte aggregation. The 2nd variant was based on variation of cloudiness due to sedimentation of aggregates in a non-agitated suspension. Both methods provided equally valid information. They characterised both intensity of aggregation as a combined effect of the number and size of aggregates as well as the rate of aggregation. Photometric recording has proved to be an objectivated method for quantitative assessment of aggregation. Its use is proposed for studies into capacitation or immunological response of spermatozoa.  相似文献   

Evaluation of the testosterone response to hCG and the identification of a presumed anorchid dog     

G. C. W. England  W. Edward Allen  D. J. Porter 《The Journal of small animal practice》1989,30(8):441-443

A two-year-old dog was presented with no scrotal testes. There was no history of castration but at laparotomy no testes were found. To confirm that the dog was truly anorchid a human chorionic gonadotrophin stimulation test was performed. This was then validated in normal entire and castrated dogs.  相似文献

盐分对碱茅种子发芽影响的机制   总被引：15，自引：0，他引：15  

阎顺国 Bake.  DA 《草地学报》1994,2(2):12-19

耐碱茅种子在盐（NaCl与Na2SO4）及干旱（PEG－6000模拟）胁迫下发芽及其机制的比较研究表明，种子发芽率随溶液渗透势的降低而下降，在等渗条件下三种溶液中的发芽率次序为Na2SO4＞NaCl＞PEG。NaCl与Na2SO4主要通过影响种子吸水量及对膜的毒性影响发芽，根据相关及通径分析结果，其机制为：（1）溶液渗透势及Na+浓度决定的种子吸水对发芽的直接正效应（通径系数0．73）；（2）溶液Na+浓度引起的膜毒性对发芽的直接负效应（－0．51）；（3）种子从溶液中吸收Na使种子吸水增加对发芽的间接正效应（0．30）及使膜毒性增大对发芽的间接负效应（－0．24）。  相似文献   

Effect of Nitrogen Rate and Stubble Height on Dry Matter Yield,Crude Protein Content and Crude Protein Yield of a Sorghum–Sudangrass Hybrid[Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench × Sorghum sudanense (Piper) Stapf.] in the Three‐Cutting System     

S. Iptas  A. R. Brohi 《Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science》2003,189(4):227-232

In this study, the effects of nitrogen (N) rate (60, 120, 180 and 240 kg N ha^?1 applied in three equal dressings at seeding and after the first and second cuttings) and stubble height (7, 14 and 21 cm) on the dry matter (DM) yield, crude protein (CP) content, and CP yield of a sorghum–sudangrass hybrid [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench × Sorghum sudanense (Piper) Stapf., cv. Pioneer 988] in the three‐cut system was investigated. The N rate had no significant effect in the first and third cuttings, but in the second cutting DM yields increased significantly with increase in N rate. The highest yield of 9.1 t ha^?1 was obtained with 80 kg N ha^?1 for the average of 2 years at the second cutting, but no significant difference was found among the 40, 60 and 80 kg N ha^?1 rates. CP content and yield were not significantly affected by N rate at the first and third cuttings, but CP content and yield were significantly affected by application of N at the second cutting. Stubble height had a significant effect on CP content at the third cutting. However, it had no significant effect on CP content at the first and second cuttings. Stubble height had a significant effect on the CP yield at the first cutting, but no significant effect on CP yield at the second and third cuttings.  相似文献   

Bacterial-associated diarrhea in the dog: a critical appraisal.     

Stanley L Marks  Elizabeth J Kather 《Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice》2003,33(5):1029-1060

The clinical documentation of enteropathogenic bacteria causing diarrhea in dogs is clouded by the presence of many of these organisms existing as normal constituents of the indigenous intestinal flora. The diagnosis of a putative bacterial enteropathogen(s) in dogs should be made based on a combination of parameters, including signalment and predisposing factors, clinical signs, serologic assays for toxins, fecal culture, and PCR. Relying on results of fecal culture alone is problematic, because C perfringens, C difficile, Campylobacter spp, and pathogenic and non-pathogenic E coli are commonly isolated from apparently healthy dogs [10,13,33]. Nevertheless, culture may be useful in procuring isolates for the application of molecular techniques, such as PCR, for detection of specific toxin genes or molecular typing of isolated strains to establish clonality in suspected outbreaks. The oversimplistic attempt to characterize bacterially associated diarrhea by anatomic localization of clinical signs should be discouraged, because most of the previously mentioned bacteria have been associated with small and large intestinal diarrhea. Accurate diagnosis of infections may require diagnostic laboratories to incorporate PCR-based assays using genus- and species-specific primers to facilitate detection of toxin genes and differentiation of species that appear phenotypically and biochemically similar. There has been tremendous interest in the application of microarray technology for the simultaneous detection of thousands of genes or target DNA sequences on one glass slide. This powerful tool could be used for detection of specific pathogenic bacterial strains in fecal specimens obtained from dogs in the future.  相似文献
