Chronic subclinical ovine fascioliasis: plasma glutamate dehydrogenase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and aspartate aminotransferase activities and their significance as diagnostic aids     

A R Sykes  R L Coop  M G Robinson 《Research in veterinary science》1980,28(1):71-75

The effect of low grade chronic Fasciola hepatica infection on the concentration of plasma glutamate dehydrogenase (GD), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) was investigated in sheep dosed daily with three (AL3), eight (AL8) or 14 (AL14) metacercariae over 22 weeks or given a single dose of 200 metacercariae. Significant increases in plasma GD activity first occurred after nine, 12 and 23 weeks and in gamma-GT activity after 12, 24 and 32 weeks for groups AL14, AL8 and AL3 respectively. Changes in AST activity were not as clearly related to dose level. In sheep with single infection, both GD and gamma-GT were capable of detecting liver damage resulting from the migration of 10 or more flukes. Plasma GD and gamma-GT activities are more sensitive indicators of liver cell damage in chronic subclinical fascioliasis than AST activity and gamma-GT may be more suitable as a diagnostic aid on account of its greater stability.  相似文献

An update on the 2005 American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) Consensus Statement on blood donor infectious disease screening was presented at the 2015 ACVIM Forum in Indianapolis, Indiana, followed by panel and audience discussion. The updated consensus statement is presented below. The consensus statement aims to provide guidance on appropriate blood‐borne pathogen testing for canine and feline blood donors in North America.  相似文献

Liveweight gain and copper status of young deer treated or untreated with copper oxide wire particles on ten deer farms in Canterbury     

Nicol AM  Keeley MJ  Guild CD  Isherwood P  Sykes AR 《New Zealand veterinary journal》2003,51(1):14-20

AIMS: To measure the liveweight response of young deer to copper supplementation on a range of deer farms in the Canterbury region of the South Island, New Zealand, and relate any response to plasma copper concentration. METHODS: On each of 10 farms throughout north and mid-Canterbury, young deer (4-7 months old) were allocated by liveweight to two groups of 45-50. The deer in one group each received 5 g copper oxide wire particles (COWP) at the start of the project (March-June 2000) and a further 10 g COWP 3 months later (+Cu group), while the other group received no copper supplementation (-Cu group). Liveweight (+/-1 kg) of all deer was recorded monthly. A 10 ml blood sample was taken from a sub-sample of 10 animals in each group at the beginning of the trial and from the same animals 3 and 6 months later for measurement of plasma copper concentration. RESULTS: There was no significant effect (p=0.96) of treatment with COWP on liveweight gain (overall mean liveweight gain = 169 g/day). This result was consistent for all farms and for both periods. Mean plasma copper concentration declined from 12.5 (SD 3.4) to 10.3 (SD 3.0) micromol/l in +Cu groups, and to a significantly lower level (p<0.001) of 8.6 (SD 3.2) in -Cu groups after 3 months, at which time 38% of -Cu animals were considered hypocupraemic (<8 micromol/l). At the end of the second 3-month period there was no significant treatment effect on plasma copper concentration, which averaged 9.4 (SD 2.3) micromol/l. Of the feed samples submitted (n=46), only 17% had a copper concentration <5.0 mg/kg dry matter (DM), 13% had a molybdenum concentration >1.0 mg/kg, and 21% had a sulphur content >3.5 g/kg. CONCLUSIONS: Under the conditions of these trials, no response in liveweight gain to copper supplementation was observed despite evidence of hypocupraemia in 38% of -Cu animals, which gained weight at similar rates to those that had adequate plasma copper levels. The extent of the hypocupraemia was either not sufficiently severe, or not maintained for a long enough period to cause copper deficiency resulting in reduced liveweight gain. No other signs of copper deficiency were evident. There is scope for deer farmers to reassess the need for copper supplementation in young deer.  相似文献   

Regional variations in the nematode worm populations of breeding ewes in New Zealand     

Herve M  McAnulty RW  Logan CM  Sykes AR 《New Zealand veterinary journal》2003,51(4):159-164

AIM: To determine whether the generic composition of nematode parasites in lactating ewes varies between geographic regions in New Zealand and whether age and fecundity of ewes affect nematode egg output. METHODS: Four ram breeding properties in each of the northern (NNI) and southern (SNI) North Island and the northern South Island (NSI) regions, together with six properties in the southern South Island (SSI) were investigated. Faecal samples were obtained on one occasion, 2-6 weeks after lambing, from at least 60 ewes on each property, stratified according to age and reproductive status. Nematode eggs were counted and coprocultures prepared to identify genera present. Information on the history of anthelmintic use on each property was also collected. RESULTS: Highest faecal egg counts (FEC) were observed from ewes in the NNI and SSI regions. Lambed hoggets and twin-rearing two-tooth ewes had higher FEC than their unlambed or single-lamb-rearing contemporaries, respectively. However, no significant effect of reproductive effort on FEC was demonstrated in mixed-aged ewes. Significant regional differences in generic composition of nematode parasites were observed: Teladorsagia spp (also referred to as Ostertagia spp) eggs made up 56% of total eggs shed from sheep in the SSI compared with14% in the NNI, and values for Haemonchus spp were 1%and 24% for these same regions, respectively. Trichostrongylus colubriformis and T. vitrinus together made up 7, 15, 13 and15% of eggs counted from sheep in the SSI, NSI, SNI and NNI, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: More comprehensive epidemiological information may suggest regional-specific approaches to the management of nematode parasites in ewes should be devised in the future.  相似文献   

Flow cytometric evaluation of canine bone marrow differential cell counts     

Weiss DJ  Blauvelt M  Sykes J  McClenahan D 《Veterinary clinical pathology / American Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology》2000,29(3):97-104

Abstract: Three flow cytometric techniques were evaluated for determination of differential cell counts on canine clinical bone marrow specimens. Techniques included staining bone marrow specimens with 2'7'-dichlo-rofluorescein (DCF) or 3,3'-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide (DiOC6) and evaluation of forward-angle light scatter vs. side-angle light scatter plots. Flow cytometric evaluation of bone marrow cells stained with DCF failed to separate bone marrow cells into distinct cell populations. Staining with DiOC6 resulted in separation of bone marrow cells into populations of mature and immature erythroid cells, mature and immature myeloid cells, and lymphocytes. The scatter plot method resulted in identification of mature and immature erythroid cells, immature myeloid cells, metamyelocytes, and bands and segmenters. Lymphocytes could not be differentiated from mature erythroid cells by the scatter plot method. When the results of the DiOC6 method and the scatter plot method were compared with manual bone marrow differential cell counts, the scatter plot method had more similar mean values and higher correlation coefficients. The scatter plot method has the potential of providing rapid semiquantitative assessment of bone marrow differential cell counts in dogs for specimens that contain low numbers of lymphocytes.  相似文献
