胆翘注射液急性和亚慢性毒性试验

旨在评价胆翘注射液的毒性,为临床安全用药提供理论依据。以昆明小鼠为研究对象,进行急性和亚慢性毒性试验。在急性毒性试验中,给予小鼠不同浓度的胆翘注射液来测定胆翘注射液的半数致死量和最大耐受量;在亚慢性毒性试验中,小鼠以(10、5、2.5g/kg)不同剂量连续腹腔注射给药28d,在给药第28天观察小鼠的临床体征、体重及饲料利用率、血常规、血液生化指标和病理组织学变化。结果显示,急性毒性试验各剂量组小鼠均无死亡,无法测出LD_(50),最大耐受量为20g/kg。亚慢性毒性试验中用药组小鼠的临床体征、体重及饲料利用率、血常规、血液生化指标与空白组小鼠相比,无显著差异(P0.05),组织病理学观察,实质器官无异常病变。表明胆翘注射液实际无毒,安全性好。     

Establishment of Digital RT-PCR Assay for Detection of Swine Influenza Virus H3N2 Subtype

A new assay for the detection of swine influenza virus (SIV) was developed with a novel nucleic acid probe——Molecular beacon in this study. The specific primers and molecular beacon probes were designed according to the conserved region of H3 and N2 genes of SIV H3N2 subtype. A digital RT-PCR assay was developed for detection of SIV H3N2 subtype. The results showed that SIV H3N2 subtype could be identified simultaneously on this microarry with high sensitivity and reproducibility,which could reach to 10⁶ dilute viruse. The conclusion was that the digital RT-PCR method could analyze quantitatively the RNA templates.On the identification of H3N2 SIV,the digital RT-PCR method was much more scientific than Real-time quantitative PCR method.

Evaluation of single and comparative intradermal tuberculin tests for tuberculosis eradication in caprine flocks in Castilla y León (Spain)

Goats can act as reservoirs for tuberculosis (TB) infection. The main etiological agents of TB in goats are Mycobacterium caprae and Mycobacterium bovis and they infect also a wide range of domestic and wild animals and humans. Control programmes based mainly on the application of single and comparative intradermal tuberculin (SIT and SCIT respectively) tests are being implemented in certain regions of Spain with a high density of caprine flocks as Castilla y León, including goats with epidemiological relationship with cattle. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the intradermal tests in naturally TB-infected caprine flocks from this region. The study was performed using data from 17,450 goats in 54 different flocks that were classified as TB-infected in the control programmes executed in 2010 and 2011. Data from 1237 goats from 7 dairy flocks depopulated after the first intradermal testing were used to estimate the sensitivity (Se) using bacteriology as the gold-standard. Overall Se of the SIT test using the severe interpretation was 43.9% (CI 95%, 40.4–47.4) and decreased to 38.8% (CI 95%, 35.5–42.3) using the standard interpretation. Overall Se of the SCIT test ranged between 21.3% (CI 95%, 17.6–25.4) and 7% (CI 95%, 4.9–9.8) depending of the interpretation criteria. A significant weak positive correlation was found between age and skin fold thickness (Spearman’s test p < 0.05). Results from this study yielded, in general, low Se values probably due the systematic detection and slaughter of reactors as a consequence of the eradication programme in previous years or the presence of factors that may interfere in the diagnosis. Therefore, these results suggest the necessity of including ancillary diagnostic tools and/or strict interpretation criteria to maximize detection of positive animals in infected settings.     

中药复方对人工感染雏鸡大肠埃希菌病及沙门菌病的防治效果观察

为验证中药复方对鸡大肠埃希菌病和沙门菌病的临床效果,对人工感染大肠埃希菌和沙门菌鸡进行防治试验,用O78、O1、O2型大肠埃希菌菌株和鸡白痢沙门菌株对试验组鸡进行人工感染后,分为中药复方高、中、低剂量组,抗生素和健康、阳性对照组。结果表明,中药复方防治两类疾病疗效可靠,效果明显,其中以高剂量组防治效果最好。对人工感染引起的鸡大肠埃希菌病和鸡白痢的保护率为92%,治愈率分别为82%和88%。     

鸡骨型白血病免疫琼扩与放射摄片诊断的比较

为了探索特异性免疫学诊断方法对鸡骨型白血病(OP)的检测效果。用双盲法分批采样同时进行羽髓琼脂扩散试验和胫骨X线摄片检查对比,共检834只鸡(433羽属天然自发OP鸡群,401羽属人工诱发实验鸡群)。结果羽髓琼扩试验的OP阳性检出率为3．48％(29／834：)。阳性病理符合率为75．86％(22／29)。阳性误诊(假阳性)率24．13％(7／29),阴性误诊(假阴性)率36．15％(291／805)。而X线摄片检查的OP阳性检出率为38．37％(320／834)。X线阳性完全可获病理组织学证实,不存在假阳性或假阴性。把禽白血病羽髓琼扩试验试用于检测鸡骨型白血病尚属初次报道,其阳性检出率低而误诊率高,尚不宜作OP检测手段。放射摄片诊断的阳性检出率高而误诊率低,可快速诊断,故适用于OP检疫。     

温度和湿度对伴性赤蚁sch系统致死性的影响

为进一步探讨家蚕伴性赤蚁(sch)致死的机理,比较了不同温度、湿度催青条件下,sch系统及其杂交F_1代和对照种黑蚁系统的孵化率、失水率、含水率、失水临界温度等。结果表明:伴性赤蚁sch系统在已_3至已_4期对温湿度敏感,受到高温和干燥的冲击,将获得“孵化不能”性状;温度、湿度因子对赤蚁sch孵化抑制均有较大的独立作用,sch表现出一定的“温度敏感性”和“湿度敏感性”;温度、湿度都能通过影响胚胎体内水分平衡失调而引起这种孵化不能;在不引起水分变化的情况下,温度还存在一条独立的抑制赤蚁孵化的途径。     

A quantitative assessment of the validity of animal-health surveys using stochastic modelling

This paper presents a stochastic simulation model to evaluate the efficacy of regional or national surveys aimed at identifying infection in populations of animals. The process of evaluation involves specification or calculation of cluster-level test sensitivity and specificity, which are derived from two probability distributions of the number of individual-level positive tests expected from non-infected and infected clusters, respectively. Probability distributions for the number of positive clusters expected in a situation of freedom from infection and under various levels of cluster prevalence are specified and used to determine survey properties (the survey being considered a diagnostic system), and ROC curves are drawn. Likelihood ratios allow investigators to state the extent to which a survey result is more likely to be observed if the region or country is infected at a given prevalence than if it is free from infection. The result of a survey carried out to investigate the presence of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) in Switzerland is used to illustrate this approach. The model can be adapted to a wide range of survey designs.
