A mass die-off of imported red tailed knobby newts (Tylototriton kweichowensis) occurred in 2004 in Belgium and the Netherlands. In addition to massive infection with Rhabdias tokyoensis, Ranavirus was isolated from three dead newts examined virologically and the gene coding for the major capsid protein of the virus was sequenced. The isolate showed 99.8% similarity to the published sequence of frog virus 3. Upon experimental infection of axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum) with this isolate, no marked pathology was noticed and the virus could not be re-isolated at 9weeks post-inoculation. Apart from the possibility of exposure of a non-sensitive host, the mortality episode in the newts may be related to stress resulting from the importation of the newts in breeding condition. This possibility is supported by the presence of degenerating egg-follicles in the females. 相似文献

The successful introduction of reptiles into a captive collection depends on providing optimal husbandry and veterinary attention. An important role of the veterinarian in this process is the prevention of disease introduction, which may affect both the introduced and the resident animals. This review focuses on preventive veterinary medicine in reptiles, emphasising quarantine measures, disinfection and entry control for infectious agents. Agents discussed include those that are likely give rise to severe clinical problems on introduction into a collection of reptiles, or, in the case of Salmonella, those that pose a significant public health risk. Aetiology, clinical signs and diagnosis are discussed for the most relevant endo- and ectoparasites, bacteria and viruses including Cryptosporidium and Entamoeba, Salmonella, Dermabacter, Chlamydiales, Mycoplasma, Herpesvirus, Adenovirus, Paramyxovirus and inclusion body disease. 相似文献

Viral isolates were obtained in 1998, 1999 and 2000 from the lung, liver and intestine of two bearded dragons (Pogona vitticeps) and a chameleon (Chamaeleo quadricornis) and from the skin of a frill‐necked lizard (Chamydosaurus kingii) by using viper heart cells (VH2) at 28°C. Electron microscopic examination of infected VH2 cells revealed the assembly of icosahedral iridovirus‐like particles measuring 139 nm (side to side) and 151 nm (apex to apex). Negatively stained virus particles had dimensions of 149 nm (side to side) and 170 nm (apex to apex). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of purified viral DNA with primers corresponding to the partial gene encoding the major capsid protein (MCP) of Frog virus‐3 (FV‐3), the type species of the genus Ranavirus, was unsuccessful. In contrast, primers corresponding to the partial MCP gene of Chilo iridescent virus (CIV; genus Iridovirus) amplified 500‐bp products with 97% identity to the nucleotide sequence of CIV and 100% identity to the nucleotide sequence of Gryllus bimaculatus iridescent virus (GbIV), an invertebrate iridescent virus. Virus protein profiles analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE) and restriction fragment length profiles of purified viral DNA treated with the endonucleases EcoRI, HindIII and HpaII were identical to those of GbIV. 相似文献

Nasal lavage fluid was collected from 155 tortoises, mostly Testudo spp., that were kept as companion animals and suffered from nasal discharge. Examination for chlamydial DNA by PCR assays targeting the ompA, ompB, and groESL genes, as well as the 16S rRNA signature region and the 16S-23S intergenic spacer, respectively, revealed 16 (10.3%) positive animals. Sequence analysis of PCR products indicated high homology to the family Chlamydiaceae. Phylogenetic trees constructed from partial sequences of the ompA and 16S rRNA genes showed that the present samples clustered outside the nine species of Chlamydia and Chlamydophila. Sequences of the nearest relative, Chlamydophila pecorum, were still clearly distinct from those of the positive tortoise samples. This suggests that the tortoises had been infected by Chlamydia-like agents, the taxonomic identity and pathogenic importance of which has yet to be established. 相似文献
