Spectral Doppler ultrasound in the major arteries of normal conscious immature micropigs

Spectral waveform analysis of blood flow velocity in the major arteries of six healthy, conscious immature micropigs was determined using Doppler ultrasonography. Doppler spectral tracings were recorded from the external iliac artery, femoral artery, and renal arcuate artery. Tracings were also taken from three parts of the common carotid artery and two parts of the abdominal aorta. Spectral Doppler parameters included peak systolic velocity, early diastolic velocity, peak systolic velocity-to-end diastolic velocity ratio, resistive index, and pulsatility index. In addition, the diameter of major arteries and indirect blood pressure were measured. These results from spectral Doppler analysis in major arteries may be useful as reference ranges in the future studies of vascular hemodynamics in immature micropigs.

4种牧草苗期耐盐性比较

用不同NaCl溶液分别对梭罗草（Roegneria thoroldiana）、碱茅（Puccinellia distans）、中华羊茅（Festuca sinensis）和垂穗披碱草（Elymus nutans）进行胁迫处理,研究它们在不同质量分数的NaCl胁迫下植物组织受伤害程度、叶片的叶绿素、可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白质、游离脯氨酸的含量及过氧化物酶、过氧化氢酶活性的变化。结果表明,在盐质量分数为0.2%时,4种供试牧草的抗盐性依次为碱茅>中华羊茅>梭罗草>垂穗披碱草;在质量分数为0.4%~1.0%时,抗盐性依次为碱茅>梭罗草>中华羊茅>垂穗披碱草。     

The effect of immunosuppression on protective immunity of turkey poults against infection with turkey coronavirus

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the protective effect of humoral and cellular immunities on turkeys infected with turkey coronavirus (TCV). Two trials were conducted with two separate hatches of turkey poults. Turkey's were experimentally immunosuppressed with cyclosporin A (CsA) or cyclophosphamide (CY) and infected with TCV. Prior to infection, treatment with CsA selectively suppressed T cell activity as revealed by 2-3 fold decreased (p < 0.1) lymphocyte proliferation responses to a T cell mitogen, concanavalin A (Con A). Treatment with CY mainly induced B cell deficiency as indicated by significant reductions (p < 0.05) in antibody responses to sheep erythrocytes 7 days after injection. Body weight gain of turkeys treated with CY was significantly lower (p < 0.05) than that of untreated turkeys at 9 days post-infection (PI). Turkeys treated with CY had 1-2 fold higher immunofluorescent antibody assay (IFA) scores for TCV antigens (p < 0.05) in the intestine than untreated turkeys at 9 or 14 days PI. These results suggested that humoral immunity against TCV infection may be important in turkeys.     

刈割对羊茅黑麦草叶片生长的影响

利用植物组织转化分析方法,研究在不同刈割开始时期和留茬高度对羊茅黑麦草叶片发生、伸长、枯萎和死亡的影响.结果表明,在营养期以低茬刈割有利于羊茅黑麦草叶片的发生和生长,适合频繁强度利用.     

增蛋散对蛋鸡内分泌及消化作用的影响

将768只421日龄海兰白蛋鸡随机均分为2组,分别饲喂添加0和1.5%中药增蛋散的2种饲料,于饲养30、60d时采血和屠宰,测定血样中卵泡刺激素(FSH)、促黄体素(LH)、三碘甲状腺原氨酸(T3)、甲状腺素(T4)、雌二醇(E2)、孕酮(P4)、甲状旁腺素(PTH)、环磷酸腺苷(cAMP)等的含量及饲料中粗蛋白和钙的消化率,探讨该散剂促产蛋的作用机制.结果显示,当日粮中添加增蛋散饲喂30、60 d时,蛋鸡血清中FSH、LH、T3、T4、E2、P4、PTH的含量,下丘脑和腺垂体中cAMP含量及饲料中粗蛋白和钙的消化率均有显著提高(P＜0.05或P＜0.01).本试验结果为该散剂提高产蛋后期鸡的产蛋率,推迟其淘汰期的药理作用提供了实验依据.
