Acupuncture for general veterinary practice.

Since the International Society of Veterinary Acupuncture (IVAS) was founded in 1974, acupuncture (AP) has received greater acceptance by veterinary professionals throughout the world. This article introduces some important animal diseases that respond well to AP therapy. These include resuscitation of small animals, treatment of anoestrous gilts and sows, bovine reproductive disease, canine vertebral problems and equine backpain, etc. Conventional medicine considers these to be difficult cases to treat. Veterinarians have become more aware of the benefits of AP especially for those diseases, thanks to the efforts of experienced practitioners and scientists, and the many published reports on veterinary AP that have introduced some good indications for AP therapy in veterinary practice. Possible mechanisms behind the effectiveness of AP are discussed. This article aims to introduce veterinarians to good indications for AP to initiate their interest in the practice of AP. Although this is a rapidly expanding field, a long march must begin with one step. We wish this article to be the shoes for such a march. For more information on veterinary AP, contact IVAS , P.O. Box 1478, Longmont, CO.. 80502, USA (http://www.ivas.org), or your national veterinary acupuncture society (http://www.komvet.at/ ivadkom/vapsocs.htm).     

Genotype evaluation,muscle histopathology and ultrastructure in a Duchenne muscular dystrophy animal model

AIM: To evaluate the genotype , muscle histopathology and ultrastructure in dko mice. METHODS: Dystrophin/Utrophin-deficient double knockouts (dko) mice were obtained from university of Oxford, UK. Genotype of filial generation of heterozygote was evaluated by PCR-SSP. HE staining and fluorescent immunohistochemistry by SABC-Cy3 were used to detect striated muscle of dko mouse, and the muscle ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscope(TEM). RESULTS: In 112 filial generation mice, there were 28 mdx (25.0%), 26 dko (23.2%) and 58 heterozygote (51.8%), which coincided with the law of Mendelian inheritance. HE staining showed that the myocytes were not very uniform, there were phenomenon of round outline, centrally nucleated fibers, widening interspace, inflammatory cell infiltration and connective tissue proliferation in dko mice. There were no any immunofluorescent expression of dystrophin and utrophin in sarcolemma in dko mice. TEM showed sarcolemma breakage, separation and edema, and loose myofibril texture, inflammatory cell infiltration and connective tissue proliferation in dko mice. CONCLUSION: PCR-SSP is a very quick and accurate way for genotype evaluation of filial generation. The pathophysiology of dko mouse was very similar to Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), and dko mouse is an ideal animal model for study of DMD clinical therapy.     

雏鸡饮服鸡源芽孢杆菌对其生长性能的影响

本研究利用从健康鸡消化道分离的鸡源芽孢杆菌饲喂雏鸡,采用鸡白痢沙门氏菌作为攻毒病原菌,观察试验组与对照组在生长速度及死亡率上的差异。实验结果表明试验组的生长速度明显高于对照组(p<0.01),死亡率明显低于对照组(低20%),说明芽孢杆菌是一种用于研制微生态制剂的理想益生菌。     

The Brief Introduction to the Sino-US Joint Centers for Soil and Water Conservation and Environmental Protection

Erosion and transport of soil has worldwide implications for agriculture, landscape stability, climate, natural hazards, and clean, renewable resources of water and air. Assured access to clean water and a healthy and safe environment requires an ethic of conservation and protection. The minimum scale in which these principles apply successfully is basin wide. These are the fundamental concerns of the Sino-US Centers for Soil and Water Conservation and Environmental Protection.

大蒜根蛆的发生规律及防治技术

对湖北省当阳市大蒜根蛆的发生规律、不同品种的抗虫性及药剂防治进行了调查试验。结果表明，大蒜根蛆在湖北1年发生2代，第1代根蛆危害时期为9月8～26日，第2代为9月25日至10月20日，第2代根蛆发生量大，危害严重；不同大蒜品种根蛆危害差异不大；药剂防治以10％地友GR处理土壤防效较好，为88.8％，叶面喷雾以2.5％肯打EC防效较好，为77.7％。     

不同稀释液对藏獒精液保存效果的影响

比较了8种稀释液在藏獒精液冷冻保存和低、常温保存(5 ℃,10 ℃,15 ℃,20 ℃)的效果.结果表明:2号和8号稀释液在冷冻保存时效果最好,精子活力和顶体完整率分别达到0.40和49%,与对照组相比差异显著(P<0.05).在藏獒的低温、常温保存试验中,所有稀释液在15 ℃时保存时间最长,综合考虑,7号液保存效果最好;在15℃时精子平均存活时间为103 h,显著高于对照组和其它稀释液(P<0.05).
