鸡摄取养分的动力何在     

黄晶  Steve Leeson 《国外畜牧学(猪与禽)》2002,(3):20-22

究竟是什么推动着鸡摄食小量或大量的饲料？鸡体内是否存在能够自动对环境变化作出反应从而使采食量发生相应改变的机制呢？确实是存在的。  相似文献

The ACVD task force on canine atopic dermatitis (V): biology and role of inflammatory cells in cutaneous allergic reactions.     

P B Hill  T Olivry 《Veterinary immunology and immunopathology》2001,81(3-4):187-198

Numerous inflammatory cells are thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of canine atopic dermatitis (AD) although, in the past, mast cells were considered the most important. However, evidence for this assumption is lacking. In this paper, we review the literature concerning the role of inflammatory cells in allergic reactions and conclude that a complex interplay exists between a wide variety of cell types. Thus, on the basis of the available evidence, the cells that appear to be the most important in the pathogenesis of canine AD are Langerhans' cells and dermal dendritic cells (both responsible for antigen processing and presentation), B-lymphocytes (responsible for reaginic antibody production), allergen-specific helper T-lymphocytes (responsible for cytokine production leading to activation of B-cells and other inflammatory cells) and mast cells (production of inflammatory mediators leading to inflammation).  相似文献   

Dietary crude protein concentration does not affect the leucine requirement of growing dogs     

S. J. Delaney  A. S. Hill  R. C. Backus  G. L. Czarnecki-Maulden  & Q. R. Rogers 《Journal of animal physiology and animal nutrition》2001,85(3-4):88-100

The objective of the present study was to examine the interaction between graded levels of leucine and dietary crude protein. Dose–response curves were generated using four 3 × 3 Latin squares (two dogs/square). Each square represented one of two concentrations of crude protein (140 or 280 g/kg diet) and one of two combinations of three concentrations of leucine (5.0, 7.0 and 9.0 g/kg diet or 9.0, 11 and 13 g/kg diet). An additional experiment was performed by feeding crude protein at 210 g/kg diet with either 7.0 or 11 g leucine/kg diet. Weight gain, food intake, nitrogen retention, plasma albumin and plasma amino acids were measured. The requirement was determined to be the minimum leucine concentration required to maximize weight gain and nitrogen retention. For 8–14-week-old male Beagle dogs, 140 g crude protein/kg diet in a diet containing 18 kJ metabolizable energy/g does not appear to support maximal growth. The leucine requirement was not affected by doubling the dietary crude protein level from 140 to 280 g/kg diet. From these results, the leucine requirement of 8–14-week-old Beagle dogs appears to be 11 g leucine/kg diet independent of the level of dietary crude protein, whereas dogs over 14 weeks require only 7 g leucine/kg diet for maximal nitrogen retention.  相似文献   

The ACVD task force on canine atopic dermatitis (VI): IgE-induced immediate and late-phase reactions, two inflammatory sequences at sites of intradermal allergen injections.     

P B Hill  A Hillier  T Olivry 《Veterinary immunology and immunopathology》2001,81(3-4):199-204

Intradermal testing is a common diagnostic procedure used in the evaluation of dogs with suspected atopic dermatitis (AD). To do this, most investigators assess the appearance of wheals that develop at the sites of intradermal allergen injections. However, wheals are rarely seen in dogs with naturally occurring AD. Furthermore, infiltration of inflammatory cells into the injection sites can occur 6-24h later, a phenomenon known as the late-phase reaction. The histological appearance of these late-phase reactions closely approximates that seen in the natural disease, suggesting that they might be more relevant than the immediate reactions. In this paper, we review the literature on immediate and late-phase reactions and re-assess the evidence for using current intradermal testing procedures as a diagnostic test in dogs.  相似文献   

猪轮状病毒2型(PCV2)是潜在的“定时炸弹”吗?     

Gordon Allan  Steve Krakowka  John Ellis  王洪戈 《中国牧业通讯》2003,(20):57-58

对猪轮状病毒2型(PCV2)的研究,为全球探讨断奶后多系统消瘦综合征(PMWS)的特殊问题,提供了许多答案。但是本文提出了一些还需要特别注意的地方 ,用以避免其可能导致的“恶果”出现。过去几年里 ,在关于断奶后多系统消瘦综合征(PMWS)、猪轮状病毒病(PCVD )全球性的探讨中 ,已经对许多关于疾病流行特点的来源和特征进行了广泛的研究。猪血清中猪轮状病毒2型 (PCV2)抗体以及猪的组织样本的检测表明 ,至少从1969年起 ,猪轮状病毒2型 (PCV2)的抗体就已经存在于猪的群体中了。现在已经确定 ,从1986年起在西班牙和英国就发现了传统的PMWS…  相似文献   

Blood thiamine levels in normal cattle and sheep at pasture     

Hill JH  Rammell CG  Forbes S 《New Zealand veterinary journal》1988,36(2):49-50

Analysis of whole blood samples from 174 cattle and, 174 sheep from 3 geographical regions of New Zealand over a 10 month period showed a mean (range) thiamine level of 122 nmol/l (71-237 nmol/l) for cattle and 118 nmol/l (67-227 nmol/l) for sheep. Regional and seasonal differences were noted with levels tending to rise over the summer period. A reference range of 75-185 nmol/l is proposed for both cattle and sheep to cover these variations. Levels below 50 nmol/l are considered indicative of deficiency.  相似文献   

Antibiotic residues in goats milk following intramammary treatment     

Hill BM  Jagusch KT  Rajan L  Kidd GT 《New Zealand veterinary journal》1984,32(8):130-131

Two lactational intramammary antibiotic preparations (cloxacillin and oxytetracycline) were each used to treat eight goats by intramammary infusion in one half. The rate of release of the antibiotics was monitored by a diffusion assay based on the sensitive organism Bacillus stearothermophilus var. calidolactis. Cloxacillin was still detectable 156 hours after the final treatment while oxytetracycline was undetectable 108 hours following treatment. A small but significant amount of antibiotic was translocated between treated and untreated halves of the udder in both cases.  相似文献   

Antibiotic residue release at the beginning of lactation following dry cow therapy     

Hill BM  Small JM 《New Zealand veterinary journal》1985,33(7):105-107

In response to farmer complaints about unfair penalties, for the presence of inhibitory substances in early lactation following the use of dry-cow antibiotic therapy, a two-part study was carried out to try and establish why these unexplained grades occur. A survey of instructions supplied with each of 13 registered dry-cow products suggested that the directions for drug use were in some cases inappropriate for long-acting antibiotics. A residue release study was conducted at the beginning of lactation following antibiotic therapy at various times during the dry period. The results showed, for the-three dry-cow preparations studied, that treatment during the dry period, especially within six weeks of calving, could lead to detectable residues in milk from treated quarters.  相似文献   

Rickets in alpacas (Lama pacos) in New Zealand     

Hill FI  Thompson KG  Grace ND 《New Zealand veterinary journal》1994,42(6):229-232

Rickets was diagnosed in two weaner alpacas from a flock showing ill thrift and lameness during the winter of 1992. Both animals had abnormally shaped ribs with occasional healing fractures, irregular thickening of growth plates and metaphyseal haemorrhages. The mean serum phosphorus concentrations of the alpacas fell during June and July, even though lambs grazing the same pasture had normal serum phosphorus concentrations and the phosphorus concentration of the pasture was considered adequate. Vitamin D deficiency may also have contributed to the osteodystrophy. The alpacas had a thick fleece during the winter, and diurnal Vitamin D, synthesis resulting from solar irradiation is likely to have been minimal, especially considering the reduced sunshine hours recorded during the 1992 winter. Surviving alpacas recovered after treatment with monosodium phosphate and an oral Vitamin D supplement. It is possible alpacas are more susceptible to deficiencies of phosphorus and Vitamin D than other grazing animals in New Zealand.  相似文献
