P.haemolytica were isolated from 15 selected major anatomical areas of the nasal cavity in calves with high numbers of P.haemolytica following shipment from Western Canada. When the organisms were present in the nasal cavity of live animals in low numbers, they were isolated from many, but not all, areas. P.haemolytica was isolated post mortem from one or more selected areas of several nasal cavities in spite of negative antemortem cultures.
By the direct fluorescent antibody technique, P.haemolytica was demonstrated at the surface of nasal epithelial cells. Organisms were not seen in or between epithelial cells nor in the ducts nor alveoli of glands. The findings were similar when high and low numbers of P.haemolytica were present in the nasal cavity.
相似文献Bordetella bronchiseptica was not isolated from the groups fed the combination of chlortetracycline, penicillin and sulfamethazine. B. bronchiseptica was found in some pigs after the feeding trail, but this organism was not significantly associated with turbinate atrophy at the time of slaughter.
Mycoplasma hyorhinis was not found in the nasal passages of the pigs that received feed containing high concentration chlortetracycline but was found in pigs that received other diets. Hemophilus suis was not significantly reduced by any of the treatments used.
The organisms studied in the pigs were not isolated from the personnel handling the pigs.
相似文献The technique used demonstrated the presence of P. haemolytica in the tracheal air of calves and provides a useful tool for monitoring and determining the phase in the colonization of the respiratory tract in which the majority of the potential pathogen P. haemolytica pass from the nose to the tracheal air and presumably to the lung.

In studies on two herds of native cattle and six lots of western feeder calves, Pasteurella spp. were isolated from nasal swabs from healthy cattle and those with shipping fever. Viruses of the psittacosis-lymphogranuloma group were isolated from nasal swabs from animals in five groups. Viruses provisionally identified as bovine enteroviruses were isolated from nasal swabs of calves in two lots.
There was serologic evidence of a temporal association of myxovirus para-influenza 3 (PI3) with shipping fever in three lots of calves. From two of these three lots, strains of PI3 were isolated from ten animals, four of which had clinical shipping fever at the time of virus isolation.
相似文献All of the pigs inoculated with the Bordetellae had inflammation of the nasal mucosa and developed positive serum antibody titers against all four of the Bordetella strains used in this study. Strain J caused sneezing and turbinate atrophy in three of four pigs. One of the three pigs inoculated with strain L died in ten days from bronchopneumonia and pericarditis and had turbinate atrophy. Strains B and B55 caused no turbinate atrophy, but two out of three pigs inoculated with both B. bronchiseptica B and P. multocida had turbinate atrophy. No nasal lesions were observed in the pigs inoculated with E. coli or P. aeruginosa or in the noninoculated germfree controls.
The results indicate a variation in the ability of different strains of B. bronchiseptica to cause turbinate atrophy in pigs and demonstrate that nasal infections by these organisms stimulate serum antibody response. Presence of P. multocida appears to increase the severity of the lesions. As the E. coli and Pseudomonas failed to produce atrophic rhinitis, they are probably of no significance as primary etiological agents in the atrophic rhinitis syndrome in swine.

It was found at necropsy 4 weeks post-inoculation that 4 isolates of swine origin, an isolate of rabbit origin and an isolate of cat origin caused mild to moderate turbinate atrophy in 22 of 24 pigs. An isolate of rat origin caused mild turbinate atrophy in 1 of 4 pigs and an isolate of dog origin caused no turbinate atrophy. Pneumonia was present in most of the pigs inoculated with the swine, cat and rabbit isolates.
Bordetella bronchiseptica was recovered in heavy growth from the nasal and tracheal exudate collected at necropsy from pigs inoculated with the 4 isolates of swine origin and the isolate of cat origin. Fewer organisms were isolated from nasal exudate collected from pigs inoculated with the rat, dog and rabbit isolates.

After primary intramuscular vaccination with killed virus, using sodium alginate as an adjuvant, antibody was detected only in the serum. However, following revaccination, a pronounced antibody response was demonstrated in both serum and secretions. Antibody was still detectable in all four ponies when tested 135 days later.
Only a serum antibody response was detected in ponies after primary intramuscular vaccination with a commercial vaccine. Upon revaccination nasal antibody occurred in all ponies but this only persisted for about 30 days.
Neither serum nor nasal antibody response occurred following intranasal vaccination and revaccination with a killed virus vaccine.

To determine whether a single characteristic or combination of characteristics might be a feature of isolates collected from animals with pneumonic pasteurellosis (Shipping Fever), the following tests were made. Cultures were serotyped by indirect haemagglutination; the ability to produce beta-galactosidase was examined in the ortho-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (ONPG) test and antibacterial sensitivity tests were done. None of these factors could be directly related to the role of P. haemolytica in “Shipping Fever”.

The symptoms and pathological changes are described. On an equivalent weight basis it required three to five times the oral dosage to kill the large animals and birds as it did to kill the laboratory animals. The symptoms were less pronounced and the survival times were longer in the more resistant animals. Enlargement and congestion of the liver with necrosis of the hepatic cells were constant and pathognomonic. These findings are in general agreement with the observations of other workers who have examined the toxicity of naturally occurring Microcystis waterblooms.
The toxicities and structures of microcystin and of six other biologically active cyclic polypeptides are summarized. The pathological effects produced by microcystin in laboratory and domestic animals resemble those produced in man but differ from those produced in animals by the toxic peptides of Amanita phalloides.

By means of this method it has been possible to show statistically, that significant differences can occur, between quarters of the same udder, in the numbers of leucocytes competent to ingest staphylococci, and also in the numbers of staphylococci ingested.
Between 4 strains of Staph. aureus significant differences were noted in their ability to multiply in the presence of milk leucocytes; in the production of leucocidal factors; and in the reduction of Resazurin in whole, normal milk.

相似文献H. pleuropneumoniae was definitely cytopathic in primary pig kidney cell cultures, producing cell rounding, cytoplasmic vacuolation and nuclear enlargement with peripheral condensation of nuclear DNA. By contrast, the effect of spheroplasts was much less distinct, producing only loss of cytoplasmic granularity coincident with apparent loss of some cytoplasmic RNA, and slight nuclear enlargement.
Both the organism and its L-form were shown to be related by cultural methods, antibiotic sensitivity tests, immunofluorescence and immunodiffusion.
The L-form remained stable after 90 serial passages on agar and 45 in broth, each medium being capable of supporting the growth of both forms of the organism.

The majority of the yeast isolated belonged to one of four species of the Candida genus. Candida krusei, Candida parakrusei, Candida guilliermundi, and Candida tropicalis, comprised 89% of the yeasts isolated. All of these species have been reported to cause clinical mastitis (1, 7, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16).
It would appear that yeast-like fungi are of sufficient prevalence in mammary glands that yeast infection would be considered in the differential diagnosis in cases of clinical mastitis.

In the sera of the infected animals the hemagglutinating antibodies were present at low titers at the third week post-infestation by using somatic extract of G. intestinalis and at the seventh week in case of G. nasalis. At eight weeks post-infestation the antibody titers reached their maximum 1:8192 (G. intestinalis) and 1:4096 (G. nasalis), then dropped at 12 weeks post-infestation.
The complement fixing antibodies were present occasionally between the seventh and 11th weeks after infestation. Precipitating antibodies were absent in all sera.

The severity of the ocular lesions in infectious bovine keratoconjunctivis outbreaks may be related to a mixed infection with the mycoplasma and Moraxella bovis.
Preliminary typing studies indicate the mycoplasma is not serologically related to any known bovine mycoplasma.

No sera from 17 deer known to be free of Theileria infection reacted positively to the CF test. Of 35 tests on sera from 12 infected deer having a parasitemia of 2% or less and no accompanying anemia, only 10 (29%) were positive, 2 (6%) were suspicious, and 23 (66%) were negative. Of 65 tests on 8 acutely infected deer, 49 (75%) were positive, 4 (6%) were suspicious and 12 (18%) were negative. Of the 8 deer in which acute theileriasis occurred all reacted to Theileria antigen at one time or another.
A significant correlation was found between CF titers and the degree of parasitemia in acute infections.
Rabbits were hyperimmunized using erythrocytes from either normal or Theileria infected deer. Reciprocal absorption of the hyperimmune sera with Theileria and normal erythrocytic antigens demonstrated the presence of antibodies specific for Theileria.
相似文献Previously these birds had been immunized by intramuscular injections of a killed antigen of S. pullorum, standard strain, and S. pullorum, variant strain. This experiment demonstrated that this drug possesses an immuno-suppressing action. This secondary effect was confirmed by an experimental infection with the GB strain of Newcastle disease virus.
