快速凝集试验与补体结合试验检测牛边缘无浆体感染的效果对比

从138份血清样品的比较试验结果显示，快速凝集试验（RCA）比补体结合试验（CF）检测边缘无浆体感染的敏感性高（88．9％：81．5％），假阴性率低（11．1％：18．5％），两者都具有良好的特异性和预测性，检测阳性符合率高，快速凝集试验对一次感染牛的持续检出阳性时间更长久（303天：92天）     

侧耳与香菇属间原生质体融合育种研究

侧耳、香菇皆属四极性异宗结合食用菌,其异核双核菌丝体均具“锁状联合”形态标记。本研究以PEG-Ca~(++)为诱导剂,以紫孢侧耳和香菇Cr-20的原生质体再生单核体为亲株,进行侧耳与香菇的属间原生质体融合,结果从1022个融合再生体中镜检出16个具锁状联合遗传标记的融合株。对1～4号融合株与亲株进行的拮抗反应、双单交配、过氧化物同功酶谱分析及菇形特征对比皆证明融合株确具双亲杂合体特征。出菇验证表明,融合株菌丝体长速均快于亲株,出菇期早,菇产量近于或高于亲株侧耳的水平。     

An occurrence of Newcastle disease in pigeons: Virological and serological studies on the isolatesFoyers de maladie de Newcastle chez le pigeon: Etudes virologiques et serologiques sur des souches isolees

The antigenic and pathogenetic relationship between pigeon Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolates during outbreaks of 1982 in Italy and reference pathogen and non-pathogen NDV-strains were investigated.The pigeon-isolates were slow-eluters and showed a thermostability at 56°C of over 30 min. They proved to be lentogenic as measured by the mean-death-time in chicken-embryos, and between lentogenic and mesogenic as measured by the Hanson test. They failed to produce plaques in chicken-embryo-fibroblasts and showed high pathogenicity for experimentally infected pigeons, low-pathogenicity for quails and were not pathogenic for chickens. They were antigenically different from the LaSota strain as measured by the cross-HI-test and induced considerable seroconversion in inoculated animals. The existence of a lentogenic neurotropic pigeon-pathogenic strain was considered.     

Selection for chip quality and specific gravity of potato clones: possibilities for early generation selection

Summary Ten cultivars contrasting in chip quality were grown in the field and in the glasshouse to evaluate three different methods for chip quality assessment. Specific gravity was also measured. The glasshouse culture simulated growth of seedlings and the field culture represented growth of advanced breeding lines. Differences between cultivars for chip quality and specific gravity could be established in both environments. Although ranking of the cultivars in both environments was not identical, both good and bad genotypes could be identified. It seems that mild selection for specific gravity and chip quality among glasshouse-grown seedlings can be exercised. If tubers of glasshouse-grown plants are too small to slice chips, Reflocheck Glucose test strips offer a satisfactory alternative to frying chips. Crip in UK     

Development of two immunochromatographic tests for the serodiagnosis of bovine babesiosis

In this study, we developed two immunochromatographic tests (ICTs), which are nitrocellulose membrane-based immunoassays for the convenient and rapid serodiagnosis of bovine babesiosis caused by Babesia bovis (BoICT) and Babesia bigemina (BiICT). The efficacy of two ICTs was evaluated using 13 positive sera from experimentally infected cattle with B. bovis or B. bigemina. Clear results showed that the BoICT and ELISA detected antibodies in sera collected from 14 to 93 days post-infection, while BiICT and ELISA detected from 13 to 274 days post-infection. In additon, non-infected cattle, Neospora caninum, and Cryptosporidium parvum were negative in two ICTs. To evaluate the field utility of the ICTs, we tested 186 field bovine sera collected from cattle living in Yanbian (China) and Mato Grosso do Sul (Brazil). The results of ICTs were compared to those of classical serodiagnostic methods, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFAT). The overall concordances of BoICT were determined as 92.5 and 90.3% when the results of ELISA and IFAT were set as the reference standards, respectively. In contrast, those of BiICT showed 96.8 and 92.5% relative to the results of standard ELISA and IFAT, respectively. Conventional and rapid diagnosic devices for bovine babesiosis may provide a valuable tool in clinical and field applications.     

Bayes and diagnostic testing

Interpretation of the result of a diagnostic test depends not only on the actual test result(s) but also on information external to this result, namely the test's sensitivity and specificity. This external information (also called prior information) must be combined with the data to yield the so-called updated, posterior estimates of the true prevalence and the test characteristics. The Bayesian approach offers a natural, intuitive framework in which to carry out this estimation process. The influence of the prior information on the final result may not be ignored. Guidance for the choice of prior information not in conflict with the data can be obtained from a set of statistics and indices (DIC, p(D), Bayes-p).     

鸡传染性支气管炎病毒血凝谱的研究

用家兔A型魏氏梭菌培养液处理的6株鸡传染性支气管炎病毒,以方阵试验分别与人O型红细胞及羊、猪、兔、鸡、鸭、鹌鹑、麻雀、小鼠等8种动物的红细胞作血凝试验,结果证明,鸡传染性支气管炎病毒H_(120)株和M_(41)株均能凝集人O型以及羊、猪、兔、鸡、鸭、鹌鹑、小鼠的红细胞,而不能凝集麻雀的红细胞;GIBV株和Connecticut株能凝集人O型以及免、鸡、鹌鹑、麻雀的红细胞,而不能凝集猪、羊、鸭、小鼠的红细胞;Gray株能凝集兔、鸡、鹤鹑的红细胞,不能凝集人O型以及猪、羊、鸭、麻雀、小鼠的红细胞;而经家兔A型魏氏梭菌培养液处理的T株和未经处理的6株病毒对人O型以及8种动物的红细胞都没有凝集性。试验还证明,M_(41)株和H_(120)株对人O型及8种动物的血凝活性水平有差异。     

In vitro studies on feline panleucopaenia virus. Standardisation of haemagglutination-inhibition test for feline panleucopaenia virus antibody

Standardised procedure for obtaining reproducible haemagglutination-inhibition results for FPV antibody which correlate with serum-neutralization titres was described. Optimal conditions were found to be Alsevers anticoagulant, PBS/0.05% BSA (pH 6.8) as buffer, especially washed round bottom microplates, determination of maximally sensitive porcine erythrocytes, use of reproducible erythrocyte concentrations, inactivation of serum samples at 56 degrees C for 30 min and serum treatment with koalin pH 9.0. The concentration of erythrocyte used for estimation of haemagglutination units in H1 test should not differ from that used as indicator in the test. Predilution of serum beyond 1:4 associated with false results. Reproducible method for removing natural agglutinins in serum by adsorption with erythrocytes was described.
