水牛巴贝斯虫病病原—牛巴贝斯虫体外培养的研究

本研究采用微气静相培养技术,对一株采自人工感染的去脾脏水牛犊的牛巴贝斯虫(Babesia bovis)进行了80天的连续体外培养·继代26次,累积增殖6.51×10~((?))倍;累积稀释2.19×10~(35)倍。培养24小时红细胞的染虫率为2.63±0.50％;48小时为7.18±1.39％;72小时为20.78±4 52％。最高红细胞染虫率达33.50％。体外培养的牛巴贝斯虫与采自病牛血液内的牛巴贝斯虫形态一致,说明已建立了水牛巴贝斯虫病病原——牛巴贝斯虫的体外培养。 对影响牛巴贝斯虫体外培养的几种因素进行的实验结果表明:培养液pH值显著地影响虫体的繁殖,最适的体外连续培养的pH为7.2;合适的血清浓度为40％;血清灭活后,支持牛巴贝斯虫生长繁殖的能力明显降低;脱纤血分离的血清和自然凝固血析出的血清用于培养的效果相同;RPMI-1640和TCM-199培养液支持牛巴贝斯虫生长繁殖的能力没有差异。     

一例牛双芽巴贝斯虫、大肠杆菌混合感染的实验室诊断

为了查明义龙新区某养牛场牛发病死亡原因,试验采集病牛内脏组织器官及全血样本,通过细菌分离培养鉴定及PCR检测技术对病料进行检测,并对分离菌进行药敏试验。结果表明：从肺脏样品中分离出革兰氏阴性短杆菌,16S rDNA测序分析鉴定为大肠杆菌,药敏试验显示其对硫酸新霉素高敏。全血样本中牛双芽巴贝斯虫核酸检测结果为阳性,而牛支原体、牛巴贝斯虫、牛附红细胞体核酸检测结果均为阴性。说明发病牛感染了牛双芽巴贝斯虫与大肠杆菌。     

水牛牛巴贝斯虫体外培养的研究：Ⅱ.冷冻血清的应用和筛选

应用冷冻血清对１株采自自然感染的水牛牛巴贝斯虫进行了长达７２ｄ的体外连续培养，共继代２０次，培养７２ｈ红细胞染虫率最高达１４．１％，平均为８％～１０％。培养２０ｄ和３０ｄ的牛巴贝斯虫经液氮保存复苏后，接种于去脾水牛犊均引发了严重的牛巴贝斯虫病，从而说明已建立了水牛牛巴贝斯虫的体外连续培养，且经培养后的牛巴贝斯虫致病力没有改变。本试验利用６头份的冷冻健康水牛血清同时进行培养，结果发现，并非所有的健康水牛血清均适合于体外培养牛巴贝斯虫。这一发现对建立水牛牛巴贝斯虫的体外培养和研究水牛牛巴贝斯虫病均具有重要意义

为了解牛卵形巴贝斯虫病在吉林省延边地区流行情况,本试验应用PCR方法对珲春地区190份牛的血液样本进行牛巴贝斯虫病的分子流行病学调查,并与血液涂片染色镜检法进行了比较。结果该地区牛巴贝斯虫病的PCR方法检测阳性率为30.52%,而血涂片染色镜检法的阳性率为11.05%。不同地区和不同饲养方式间牛卵形巴贝斯虫感染率差异显著(P<0.05)。遗传进化分析显示,吉林省延边地区牛卵形巴贝斯虫与日本分离株处于同一分支,而区别于河南和韩国分离株。调查表明,吉林省延边地区是牛卵形巴贝斯虫病的流行地区。     

巴贝斯虫体外培养技术及其应用的研究进展

体外培养巴贝斯虫的工作起始于1978年，由Frp等采用悬浮培养（Suspensionculture，又称旋转培养SpinnerflaskmethodSFM）成功地进行了牛巴贝斯虫的体外培养，但培养中红细胞染虫率不高。1980年，Levy等仿照Trager（1976）培养恶性疟原虫的技术建立了微气静相培养技术（MicroaerophilousstationaryphasecultureMASP），实现了牛巴贝斯虫的体外连续培养并得到了理想的结果。之后，该方法被迅速应用于双芽巴贝斯虫、分歧巴贝斯虫、大巴贝斯虫、犬巴贝斯虫、隐藏巴贝斯虫、马巴贝斯虫等多种巴贝斯虫的体外培养均获成功。目前，该方法已被…

Comparison of diagnostic methods to detect piroplasms in asymptomatic cattle

This study was carried out to compare different diagnostic techniques to reveal the presence of piroplasms in asymptomatic cattle kept at pasture. Nineteen blood samples were collected from animals of two different areas of Emilia Romagna Region of Italy and processed for microscopic observation, PCR, serological test (IFAT) for Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina antibodies and in vitro cultivation. The cultures were performed on both bovine and ovine erythrocytes. Seventeen blood smears (89%) were positive for piroplasms, while PCR was positive on 18 samples (95%). DNA sequencing of 18S rRNA identified the piroplasms as Theileria spp. In vitro cultures were successful for 6 samples (32%) cultured on bovine blood and subsequent identified these as Babesia major by PCR. On IFAT analyses of 16 samples, 36.8% resulted positive for B. bovis and 31.6% positive for B. bigemina. These results show, in the same animals, the co-infection with Babesia spp. and Theileria spp.; the detection of B. major was possible only using the in vitro cultures.

Babesia spp. infection in Boophilus microplus engorged females and eggs in Sao Paulo State, Brazil

Babesia spp. infections were investigated in Bos taurus x Bos indicus dairy cows and calves and in Boophilus microplus engorged female ticks and eggs. Blood samples and engorged female ticks were collected from 25 cows and 27 calves. Babesia spp. was detected in ticks by microscopic examination of hemolymph of engorged female and by squashes of egg samples. Cattle infection was investigated in blood thin smears and by DNA amplification methods (PCR and nested PCR), using specific primers for Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina. Merozoites of B. bovis (3 animals) and B. bigemina (12 animals) were detected exclusively in blood smears of calves. DNA amplification methods revealed that the frequency of B. bigemina infection in calves (92.6%) and in cows (84%) and of B. bovis in calves (85.2%) and in cows (100%) did not differ significantly (P > 0.05). Babesia spp. infection was more frequent in female ticks and eggs collected from calves (P < 0.01) than from cows, especially in those which had patent parasitemia. Hatching rates of B. microplus larvae were assessed according to the origin of engorged females, parasitemia of the vertebrate host, frequency and intensity of infection in engorged female tick, and frequency of egg infection. Hatching rate was lower in samples collected from calves (P < 0.01) than from cows, and in those in which Babesia spp. was detected in egg samples (P < 0.01).

Babesia bovis and B. bigemina DNA detected in cattle and ticks from Zimbabwe by polymerase chain reaction

From blood collected from 94 cattle at 12 locations in the eastern and northeastern areas of Zimbabwe, DNA was extracted and analysed by polymerase chain reaction with primers previously reported to be specific for Babesia bigemina and Babesia borvis. Overall, DNA of Babesia bigemina was detected in the blood of 33/94 (35%) cattle and DNA from B. bovis was detected in 27/58 (47%) of cattle. The prevalence of DNA of B. bigemina was significantly higher in young animals (<2 years) (23/46) than in animals over 2 years of age (10/48; chi2= 8.77; P <0.01%). Although tick sampling was not thorough, Boophilus decoloratus could be collected at 7/9 sites sampled and Boophilus microplus at 4/9 sites. Of the 20 B. decoloratus allowed to oviposit before PCR analysis, 1 (5%) contained DNA that could be amplified with primers for B. bigemina while 12 (60%) were positive with primers for B. bovis. Of the B. microplus allowed to oviposit, 11/16 (69%) were positive for B. bovis DNA by PCR and 2/16 (12%) were positive for B. bigemina.     

慢性瘤胃酸中毒状态下奶山羊瘤胃细菌内几种相关细菌数量变化的研究

研究慢性瘤胃酸中毒（subacute rumen acidosis,SARA）状态下,相关瘤胃微生物数量的变化。将6只体重相近,体况良好,并安装有永久性瘤胃瘘管的泌乳期关中奶山羊作为试验对象,以逐渐增加精料的方式诱导动物发生SARA。试验分4期进行,4期日粮的精粗比分别为5∶5、6∶4、7∶3和8∶2。分别采用16S rRNA 探针杂交法和传统培养法对SARA状态下瘤胃内微生物数量变化进行测定。随着日粮精料比例的增加,牛链球菌、乳酸杆菌、反刍兽新月单胞菌、埃氏巨型球菌和淀粉分解菌的数量出现不同程度的增加,而3种主要纤维分解菌的数量有所下降,其中淀粉分解菌的数量极显著增加（P<0.01）。在SARA状态下瘤胃细菌总数、乳酸产生菌和乳酸利用菌数量均有所增长,同时3种主要纤维分解菌的数量明显下降。     

Comparison of duplex PCR and microscopic techniques for the identification of Babesia bigemina and Babesia bovis in engorged female ticks of Boophilus microplus

A single-step duplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique and traditional microscopic examination of haemolymph smears were used to detect Babesia bigemina and/or Babesia bovis infection in engorged female ticks of Boophilus microplus recovered from calves raised in an endemic area of the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. In the PCR amplification of tick-derived DNA, pairs of oligonucleotide primers specific for a 278-bp sequence from B. bigemina and for a 350-bp sequence from B. bovis were used conjointly. The microscopic examination of haemolymph revealed that 16.7% of the engorged ticks were infected with Babesia spp., although no significant differences (rho > 0.05) were found in the infection rate of ticks collected from calves of different age groups. PCR analysis showed that 77.8% of the engorged ticks whose haemolymph contained sporokinetes were infected with B. bigemina, 7.8% with B. bovis and 14.4% with both protozoan species. However, the PCR assay further revealed that, amongst the engorged female ticks whose haemolymph was apparently negative for the presence of sporokinetes, 15.6% were infected with B. bigemina, 2.2% with B. bovis and 10.0% with both species. The duplex PCR method is thus more efficient and sensitive than the microscopic assay and also permits facile identification of the protozoa species present in engorged female ticks.
