Application of non-structural protein ELISA kits in nationwide FMD surveillance in pigs to demonstrate virus circulation in Taiwan

Large scale surveillance of FMD non-structural protein (NSP) antibody in pigs was conducted to monitor for FMD virus circulation in Taiwan using Ceditest and UBI NSP ELISA kits after recurrence of FMD in 2009. A total of 53,759 serum samples were collected from pigs in the auction markets in 2009. There were 43 farms with positive FMD NSP reactors to both NSP ELISA tests in the nationwide surveillance. After tracing back, clinical examination and the NSP ELISA testing using both Ceditest and UBI on 14 follow-up serum samples from all the herds with confirmed NSP reactors in 2009, there were 4 farms classified as positive on follow-up testing criteria. In this surveillance, we have demonstrated that the NSP ELISA tests of outbreak farms followed by clinical and serological investigation could be used to detect FMD circulation in the pig population in Taiwan even while the national compulsory vaccination program is ongoing.     

粗糙对矿用排水泵轴功率的影响分析

矿用排水泵是矿山排水设备的重要组成成分之一,用于将采矿过程中随时涌入的矿井水排除.本文通过对矿井排水管路流动阻力损失的分析,说明了流动阻力损失与粗糙度之间的关系,并由矿用排水泵的扬程、有用功率、轴功率与流动阻力损失间的函数方程,反映出粗糙对矿用排水泵轴功率的影响.指出了矿山排水系统在使用中应当注意的问题,并提出了相应的处理措施.     

在体外模拟瘤胃发酵条件下N-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸稳定性的研究

通过两个试验,研究在体外模拟瘤胃发酵条件下N-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸的降解率。试验1:N-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸在pH值6.5、温度为39℃的缓冲液中孵育9h,其降解率为3.3%。试验2:运用瘤胃体外发酵技术研究N-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸不同添加量对pH值、氨态氮、微生物蛋白动态变化的影响。结果表明,添加0.4、0.6gN-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸发酵3～6h,均能够显著降低体系的pH值;添加0.6gN-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸发酵12h能够显著提高氨态氮的浓度;N-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸在发酵过程中不影响微生物蛋白产量。以上结果显示,N-乙酰-DL-蛋氨酸在体外模拟瘤胃发酵的条件下可以稳定存在。     

蒸汽压片玉米加工工艺及其对牛生产性能的影响

蒸汽压片是一种对玉米进行湿热加工的加工工艺,可以提高玉米的生物学价值,改善其利用率,可以提高瘤胃淀粉、过瘤胃淀粉和总肠道淀粉消化率。同时还可以促进其它物质的消化代谢,减少氮、磷的排泄。经过严格质量控制的蒸汽压片玉米可以提高舍饲肉牛的肉料比和提高奶牛的产奶量和乳蛋白量。     

Effects of supplemental vitamin E during the mature period on the reproduction performance of Taiwan Native Chicken cockerels

One-day-old Taiwan native male chicks were fed with maize-soybean rearing diets without supplemental vitamin E to 23 weeks of age. From 23 to 52 weeks of age, the cockerels (n = 90) were assigned at random to 5 dietary treatments and fed with maize-soybean diets supplemented with 0, 20, 40, 80 and 160 mg/kg of vitamin E (dl-alpha-tocopherol acetate). Pullets (225) of the same age were fed with standard diets throughout. They were artificially inseminated with one dose of 0.04 ml/bird intact and 5-fold diluted pooled semen at 31 to 43 weeks of age and at 49 weeks of age, respectively. The criteria evaluated included: semen quality, fertility and maximum and effective duration of fertility, blood characteristics, body and testes weight. Supplemental vitamin E did not affect cockerels' effective duration of fertility and percentage of fertility. However, when pullets were inseminated with diluted semen, supplementing 160 mg/kg vitamin E increased the maximum duration of fertility at 49 weeks of age. Cockerels receiving 40 to 160mg/kg supplements had higher sperm viability and motility after 39 weeks of age and those fed 80 mg/kg had higher sperm concentration at 39 weeks of age. Cockerels receiving supplements of more than 40 mg/kg vitamin E had higher body weight gain. Plasma cholesterol and testosterone were not affected by supplemental vitamin E. However, plasma luteinising hormone (LH) concentration was lower in cockerels fed 160 mg/kg. Lack of supplemental vitamin E over 39 weeks was associated with lower semen quality but did not reduce the proportion of fertile eggs laid by inseminated hens, perhaps because the insemination dose compensated for low sperm quality. We found that the maximum duration of fertility might be improved by supplementing 160 mg/kg vitamin E at 49 weeks of age.

中蜂甘露蜜中毒的诊治

蜜蜂甘露蜜中毒是由于蜜蜂吸食了大量含松三糖的甘露蜜,引起消化吸收障碍而中毒的一种疾病。多发生于高温、干旱、缺蜜的夏、秋季节。若不即时对症治疗和加强管理,常常给蜂农带来很大经济损失。现将该病诊治情况报告如下。1发病原因本病在我县主要发生在松、柏林地广袤的联片地     

中草药防治鸡霉形体病的研究

将自然感染MG的土杂鸡,随机分为7组,1、2、3组分别为病毒I号,按每kg体重0.25ml、0.50ml、1.00ml给药,4、5、6组分别为泰乐星,按每kg体重50mg、100mg、200mg给药,2次/d,连续7d,7组为空白对照。投药后,进行临床症状及气囊病理评分、MG血清抗体检测和疗效试验。结果显示:病毒I号与泰乐星在缓解临床症状、减少气囊炎病变率、降低气囊病变程度和死亡率等方面两者均无显著差异(P>0.05),而试验组与对照组差异显著(P<0.05)。说明病毒I号与泰乐星达到同样的治疗效果。     

山羊焦虫病的诊治

山羊焦虫病即山羊梨形虫病,是由寄生在羊红细胞中的巴贝斯虫或泰勒虫引起,发病率和死亡率均高的疾病.常呈地方性流行或散发.2003年～2004年楚雄市某黑山羊和努比羊两个养殖场发生该病,因确诊较晚,造成极大经济损失.经临床观察,病理解剖,实验室检查确诊为羊焦虫病后,用贝尼尔治疗效果较好,用药一次后再无羊发病和死亡.
