Abstract Extract The results of the 1965–6 New Zealand national mastitis survey (Anon., 1967) indicated that β-haemolytic staphylococci were the most common bacteria isolated from the milk of dairy cows. Effective control of β-haemolytic stapyhlococci on a national scaledepends ultimately upon an understanding of population changes of this organism within the cow and within the herd. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Sir, — The leptospiral serovars that have been cultured in New Zealand are pomona, copenhageni, ballum and hardjo. (Anon., 1951; Kirschner and Gray, 1951; Anon., 1967a; Lake, 1973, respectively.) Serological evidence of serovar tarassovi has been published (Russell and Hansen, 1958) but it is believed that until now no members of this serogroup have been isolated in New Zealand. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Bovine Leptospirosis was first recognized in New Zealand in 1950 (Anon., 1951). Since then the infection has become widespread, particularly during wet spring and summer months (Anon., 1973). In calves, infection with serotype pomona frequently gives rise to haemoglobinuria and general malaise, while symptoms such as loss of condition and pendulous abdomens which appear suddenly and are followed by sudden death have been associated with copenhageni infections (Dodd and Brackenridge, 1960). 相似文献

Abstract Extract The equine lungworm was first reorded in a donkey (Equus asinus) and named Strongylus arnfieldi by Cobbold (1884). Later it was recognized in the horse by Railliet and placed in the genus Dictyocaulus by Railliet and Henry in 1907. Numerous reports describe its cosmapolitan distribution although the cases de- scribed below appear to be the first published records of it from New Zealand, apart from a Department of Agriculture Report (Anon., 1966). 相似文献

Abstract Extract Ovine toxoplasmosis is of importance in New Zealand where it is recognized as the most common cause of intrauterine infection leading to abortion and stillbirths (Hartley and Boyes, 1964). Although clinical disease is rare in humans, serological evidence shows a high incidence of subclinical infection with 50% of New Zealand adults over 40 years of age showing positive titres (Manning and Reid, 1956). There is, however, a paucity of information on the disease incidence in other species in this country. Hartley (1956) has recorded toxoplasmosis in dogs and fowls. Pneumonia in a pig associated with Toxoplasma gondii was described by Shortridge and Smith (1964) while, more recently, Shortridge (1968) noted two cases of feline toxoplasmosis. This present communication concerns an outbreak of acute toxoplasmosis in several piglets. 相似文献

Abstract Extract In spite of numerous publications on the salmonellae and their effects on various hosts, few countries can assess accurately the annual toll of human illness or economic losses in. livestock as a result of these infections. Attempts are being made, at both international and national levels, to remedy this deficiency, particularly as food-borne salmonellosis in countries with high standards of living and hygiene is becoming a very real problem. Increasing mass food preparation, inadequate storage facilities or methods, a trend towards eating raw or insufficiently cooked fcods, increasing international trade, and possibly decreasing personal resistance, have all been cited as contributing factors. Epidemiological studies have documented the vulnerability of the young, the elderly and those with intercurrent disease or those living in institutions. As the main source of infection for man is food of animal origin (Anon., 1967a), all aspects of the livestock and food industries can expect increasing surveillance. In this review it is proposed to discuss recent advances in the detection of Salmonella organisms in livestock and their environment, as well as the application of control measures relevant to New Zealand farming and industry. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Information about diseases in domestic fowls in New Zealand is contained in two books (Anon., 1965; Anon., 1971). The following diseases have been the subject of separate reports: Salmonella newington infection (Flannery, 1954); lead poisoning (Salisbury et al, 1958); Ornithonyssus sylviarum infestation (Thomas and Watson, 1958); infectious laryngotracheitis (Webster, 1959); mycoplasmosis (Pohl, 1966); infectious bronchitis (Pohl, 1967); uraemia (Pohl, 1968); coccidiosis (Pohl, 1969); vibriosis (Pohl, et al, 1969) and capillariasis (Rickard and Pohl, 1969). 相似文献

Abstract Extract Madam;–The results of field trials of a live parainfluenza virus type3(PI3)vaccine suggested that(PI3)might not be the only virus involved in the initiation of outbreaks of pneumonia in lambs in New Zealand,(5)The outbreaks that were not associated with infection with(PI3)could not be linked to infection with the other ovine respiratory viruses then known to be present in New Zealand (ovine adenovirus type 6 and the ovine variant of bovine adenovirus type 7)((1),(4),(5)suggesting that other unrecognised viruses might be involved. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of pneumonia in human infants and in cattle.(8)This virus has recently been isolated from a yearling ewe with mild rhinitis(6)and there is serological evidence of infection in adult sheep.(3),(6)However, there are no reports implicating this virus in outbreaks of pneumonia in lambs, although experimental infection of lambs with a bovine isolate of RSV resulted in reduced pulmonary bacterial clearance leading to secondary pneumonic pasteurellosis.(2) 相似文献

Abstract Extract Following the occurrence of one case of human trichinosis in New Zealand in 1931 (Lynch, 1932), a search was made for the larvae of Trichinella spiralis in the diaphragms of pigs. The examinations were made by pressing out pieces of muscle between two glass slides, and examining them under the microscope using a low-power objective. Samples from nearly 20,000 pigs were examined without any infections being found (N.Z. Dept. Agric, 1932). 相似文献

Abstract Extract In New Zealand, cobalt-containing drenches are recommended for the field diagnosis of cobalt deficiency, but find little use as a routine method of controlling the disease. For the latter purpose, cobaltized licks have a place on extensively-grazed untopdressed hill country. Otherwise, topdressing pastures annually with cobalt sulphate, usually as cobaltized superphosphate, has proved the best method of prevention (N.Z. Dept. Agric, 1954; Andrews, 1956). In Australia, however, greater reliance has been placed on drenches and licks, partly because cobalt topdressing is regarded as uneconomic on the extensive undeveloped holdings usually associated with cobalt deficiency in that country, and partly because the effects of cobalt applied to the land have often proved ephemeral, particularly on the acutely-deficient calcareous coastal sands (Lee, 1950; Bennetts, 1955). However, recent work in South Australia opens up an entirely new approach to the control of cobalt deficiency disease. Dewey et al. (1958) report that when semi-porous pellets containing cobaltic oxide are administered to sheep they are retained in the reticulum, or less commonly in the rumen, and release a continuous and adequate supply of cobalt to the animal. Phalaris staggers and cobalt deficiency disease can be prevented in this way. 相似文献

Prevalence of dentigerous cysts (ovine odontogenic cysts) in ewes in the South Island of New Zealand
Abstract Cysts in the anterior mandible of sheep are reportedly uncommon in New Zealand((1)) although their prevalence and economic significance are unknown. They usually develop around an unerupted permanent incisor, perhaps as a result of an abnormality in the eruption process, but their pathogenesis is not clear. They appear as solitary swellings which grow slowly and are lined by stratified squamous epithelium. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of these lesions in mixed-age ewes at meat plants in the South Island of New Zealand. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus has been associated with respiratory infection (Webster and Manktelow, 1959) and genital infections (Manktelow and Hansen, 1961) in New Zealand. The possible role of IBR virus in abortion has been reviewed by Durham (1974). 相似文献

Abstract Extract Northand has a wide variety of soil types, many of which are strongly leached wet clays with thin topsoils and low subsoil fertility. The copper status of many of these soils is low (Cunningham et at.,1956; Taylor et al., 1956; Wells, 1957). Copper deficiency (hypocuprosis), has been reported at various times in both cattle and sheep in this part of New Zealand, but the incidence was considered to be low and confined to a few localized areas. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Tutu (Coriaria arborea Lindsay) is a small tree or shrub, variable in height, with leaves lin. to 3in. long, oblong and sessile, which has many flowers in long, drooping racemes. The fruit is purplish-black and is enveloped by juicy, persistent, and enlarged petals. It is a shrub that is found abundantly on certain river banks, bush, scrub, and tussock grassland throughout New Zealand (Connor, 1951). The green fruit and associated racemes, and also the flowering racemes, are highly toxic. The ripe fruit is relatively not as toxic (Easterfield, 1901). 相似文献

Abstract Extract Increasing references have been made in the recent veterinary literature to malacic diseases of the nervous system in sheep and other animals. Plowright (1954) and Innes and Plowright (1955) have described a focal symmetrical spinal poliomalacia of unknown aetiology in sheep in Kenya. In the U.S.A., Cordy (1954) has described a focal symmetrical encephalomalacia of horses following the ingestion of a species of thistle, and Jensen et al. (1956) have described an idiopathic polio-encephalomalacia in cattle and sheep. In New Zealand, Hartley (1956) has described a focal symmetrical encephalomalacia (F.S.E.) of lambs that may be related to the sublethal effects of the toxin of Clostridium perfringens (welchii) Type D. Smith (1957) has described widespread lesions of polio-encephalomalacia together with eosinophilic meningoencephalitis in sodium chloride poisoning of swine. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Infection by the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii is widespread in sheep in New Zealand and is recognized as the most common cause of intra-uterine infection leading to abortion and stillbirths (Hartley et al., 1954; Hartley and Boyes, 1964). In view of the prevalence of this infection in New Zealand, trials were set up to investigate some aspects of the epidemiology of this perplexing disease. 相似文献

Isolation of leptospira hardjo from the opossum (trichosurus vulpecula) Extract Sir, — In 1971 and 1972 the Department of Health and the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries conducted surveys on the incidence of leptospirosis among fanners and their stock on the Hauraki Plains. As a result, Leptospira hardjo was identified for the first time in New Zealand, being isolated from humans (Christmas et al., 1974) and from dairy cattle (Lake, 1973). Evidence to date suggests that most human infections in New Zealand, whether of L. hardjo or of other serotypes, are contracted while milking. 相似文献

Abstract Extract Parainfluenza type 3(Pl3) virus has been associated with upper respiratory disease of cattle in many countries (Hoerlein et al., 1959; Bögel, 1961; Reisinger, 1962; Jolly and Ditchfield, 1965). However, PI3 virus has not been isolated from cattle with respiratory disease in New Zealand although a serological study found that 89.3% of cows had significant levels of antibody against PI3 virus (Pastier and Hansen, 1966). In most cases infections are subclinical, and there is little evidence to suggest that PI3 virus is an important cause of disease in New Zealand cattle (Jolly, 1967). This communication records an outbreak of upper respiratory disease in cattle from which PI3 virus was isolated. 相似文献
