Aspiration of barium-impregnated polyethylene spheres by a dog

This case report describes an 11-year-old Belgian Malinois dog with acute onset of cough caused by aspiration of barium-impregnated polyethylene spheres (BIPS) and pneumonia following an episode of suspected gastric dilation. Although bronchoscopic retrieval of the BIPS was largely unsuccessful, the dog recovered uneventfully, with most of the BIPS being coughed out and swallowed over a 1-month period. Aspiration of BIPS should be considered a potential complication of their administration. Furthermore, endoscopic removal of aspirated BIPS is challenging and may not be indicated because of their inert nature and possible self-clearance.

油用亚麻主要品质和农艺性状的变异分析

为深入了解油用亚麻主要品质和农艺性状的遗传变异,以253份油用亚麻种质为研究对象,在3个环境下（内蒙古呼和浩特市、集宁市和锡林郭勒盟太仆寺旗）对其全生育天数、株高、工艺长度、单株果数、每果粒数、单株粒重、千粒重和分枝数8个农艺性状及棕榈酸、硬脂酸、油酸、亚油酸、亚麻酸、粗脂肪含量6个品质性状进行鉴定。结果表明,8个农艺性状的变异系数为5.66%~42.65%;6个品质性状的变异系数为4.10%~30.14%。全生育天数在太仆寺旗表现最长,为112.51 d;千粒重和单株粒重在集宁地区表现最大,分别为5.94和0.55 g;果粒数和单株果数在呼和浩特地区表现最多,分别为5.65和16.90;粗脂肪和亚麻酸含量在太仆寺旗地区表现最大,分别为39.53%和53.45%;亚油酸和棕榈酸含量在集宁地区最大,分别为16.41%和5.09%;油酸和硬脂酸含量在呼和浩特地区表现最大,分别为24.03%和8.31%。聚类分析表明,253份油用亚麻种质被划分为4个类群,相同地理来源的油用亚麻种质被聚到1个类群,为油用亚麻种质资源的收集保存与繁殖提供了科学依据。

The Control of Reactive Oxygen Species Influences Porcine Oocyte In Vitro Maturation

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of varying intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels during oocyte in vitro maturation with enzymatic ROS production systems (xanthine + xanthine oxidase or xanthine + xanthine oxidase + catalase), scavenger systems (catalase or superoxide dismutase + catalase) or cysteine on porcine oocyte maturation. Oocyte ROS levels showed an increase when H₂O₂ or O₂?^‐ production systems were added to the culture medium (p < 0.05). On the other hand, the presence of ROS scavengers in the maturation medium did not modify oocyte ROS levels compared with the control after 48 h of maturation, but the addition of cysteine induced a decrease in oocyte ROS levels (p < 0.05). The ROS production systems used in this work did not modified the percentage of oocyte nuclear maturation, but increased the decondensation of sperm head (p < 0.05) and decreased the pronuclear formation (p < 0.05). In turn, the addition of O₂?^‐ and H₂O₂ scavenging systems during in vitro maturation did not modify the percentage of oocytes reaching metaphase II nor the oocytes with decondensed sperm head or pronuclei after fertilization. However, both parameters increased in the presence of cysteine (p < 0.05). The exogenous generation of O₂?^‐ and H₂O₂ during oocyte in vitro maturation would not affect nuclear maturation or later sperm penetration, but most of the spermatozoa cannot progress to form the pronuclei after fusion with the oocyte. The decrease in endogenous ROS levels by the addition of cysteine would improve pronuclear formation after sperm penetration.
