复合微生态制剂对苏牧白鹅雏鹅生长性能的试验研究

试验研究复合微生态制剂对雏鹅生长性能的影响。采用单因素随机设计,将160只1日龄健康苏牧白鹅仔鹅,随机分为4个处理,每个处理4个重复,每个重复10只,公母各半。0-3周龄雏鹅饲喂两种不同营养水平的饲料,观察其对雏鹅日增重、饲料报酬的影响。结果表明：雏鹅日增重、饲料转化率复合微生态制剂组显著高于不添加组。随着复合微生态制剂添加量的增加,肉鹅的日增重和日采食量均上升的趋势,料重比呈下降后的趋势,其中试验3组的日增重与采食量最高,但与对照组差异显著,与试验1组、试验2组差异显著（P〈0.05）;试验1组与试验2组差异不显著（P〉0.05）;料重比的变化趋势与平均日增重相同。     

Pathological findings and probable causes of the death of Stejneger’s beaked whales (Mesoplodon stejnegeri) stranded in Japan from 1999 and 2011

One hundred and twenty stranding events of Stejneger’s beaked whales were reported in Japan between 1999 and 2011. The purpose of this study is to introduce pathological data and to discuss probable causes of death for 44 Stejneger’s beaked whales among them. The significant pathological findings were the pulmonary edema, parasitic granulomatous nephritis, emaciation, amyloidosis, suppurative bronchopneumonia and so on. The probable causes of death were categorized as noninfectious in 43 of the cases, which included drowning, starvation and secondary amyloidosis. One individual was diagnosed with septicemia, which was the only example of an infectious disease. Because we could not always perform advanced analyses, such as microbiology tests, biotoxin examinations or contaminant analyses, the finality of our findings may be impaired. However, the present study has broad implications on the causes of death of Stejneger’s beaked whales of the seas around Japan, which are valuable for the future studies and for the detection of emerging diseases.

Pharmacokinetics of florfenicol and thiamphenicol in ducks

The pharmacokinetics of florfenicol (FF) and thiamphenicol (TP) after single intravenous (IV) and oral (PO) administration was investigated in Mulard ducks. Both antibiotics were administered at a dose of 30 mg/kg body weight, and their concentrations in plasma samples were assayed using high‐performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using a noncompartmental method. After IV administration, significant differences were found for the mean residence time (2.25 ± 0.21 hr vs. 2.83 ± 0.50 hr for FF and TP, respectively) and the general half‐life (1.56 ± 0.15 hr vs. 1.96 ± 0.35 hr for FF and TP, respectively) indicating slightly slower elimination of TP as compared to FF. The clearance, however, was comparable (0.30 ± 0.07 L/hr/kg for FF and 0.26 ± 0.04 L/hr/kg for TP). The mean volume of distribution was below 0.7 L/kg for both drugs. Pharmacokinetics after PO administration was very similar for FF and TP suggesting minor clinical importance of the differences found in the IV study. Both antimicrobials showed rapid absorption and bioavailability of more than 70% indicating that PO route should be an efficient method of FF and TP administration to ducks under field conditions.

鲤春病毒血症病毒单克隆抗体制备及鉴定

为制备鲤春病毒血症病毒(SVCV)单克隆抗体(MAb),本研究用纯化的SVCV免疫BALB/c鼠,通过杂交瘤细胞技术,制备2株抗SVCV的MAb,分别命名为2A3和3H7。经间接ELISA检测腹水效价为1:10240和1:12150。亚类鉴定证实,这2株亚类均为IgG1型。经非竞争酶免疫试验测定2A3和3H7的抗体亲和力常数分别为4.86×108L/mol和1.86×109L/mol,3H7相对亲和力高于2A3。MAb 2A3和3H7的饱和度均为1:400,叠加试验所得增值指数为63.2%,大于50%。抗体反应增值结果表明:两株MAb分别针对不同抗原位点。免疫印迹分析检测表明,两株纯化的MAb均可与SVCV抗原发生特异反应。     

Ventricular systolic dysfunction in dogs diagnosed with hypoadrenocorticism

In human patients with hypoadrenocorticism, a secondary dilated cardiomyopathy is noted that has been reported to resolve with replacement steroid therapy. A similar secondary dilated cardiomyopathy in dogs with hypoadrenocorticism has not been previously described. We present three dogs concurrently diagnosed with hypoadrenocorticism and ventricular dilation with systolic dysfunction. Two dogs were presented with clinical signs consistent with biventricular congestive heart failure and a third dog was presented with signs of acute hypoadrenocorticism without congestive heart failure. All dogs recovered to normal cardiac size and function with therapy. Hypoadrenocorticism should be considered as a differential diagnosis in dogs that present with ventricular dilation and systolic dysfunction if there are other indicators in the clinical and laboratory testing. Additionally, a thorough cardiac evaluation should be recommended for dogs that are found to have a heart murmur at the time of diagnosis of hypoadrenocorticism.     

Characterization of the LH peak after short and long fixed‐time artificial insemination protocols in sheep raised in the tropics

The aim of this study was to evaluate the peak in luteinizing hormone (LH) and the pregnancy rate of sheep (Texel × Santa Inês) in the tropics using short‐ (6 days) and long‐term (12 days) progesterone protocols followed by artificial insemination (AI) both in and out of the breeding season. Experiment 1 was conducted within (IN) the breeding season (autumn, n = 36), and experiment 2 was conducted outside (OUT) of the breeding season (spring, n = 43). In each experiment, the sheep were divided into two groups (6 or 12 days) according to the duration of treatment with a single‐use progesterone release vaginal device (CIDR^®, Pfizer, São Paulo, SP, Brazil), and blood samples were collected from 10 animals per group every 4 hr to measure the LH and progesterone concentrations. In the spring, the characteristics of the LH peak did not differ between groups; but in the autumn, there were differences between groups at the beginning (G‐6 IN: 36.44 ± 5.46 hr; G‐12 IN: 26.57 ± 4.99 hr) and end of the LH peak (G‐6 IN: 46.22 ± 7.51 hr; G‐12 IN: 34.86 ± 8.86 hr). The results showed alterations in the LH peak during the breeding season only in the sheep undergoing the short‐term protocol.

Ovariectomy as treatment for ovarian bacterial granulomas in a Duvaucel's gecko (Hoplodactylus duvaucelii)

CASE HISTORY: An adult female Duvaucel's gecko (Hoplodactylus duvaucelii) from a threatened species breeding programme presented due to a prolonged gestation period and distended abdomen.

CLINICAL AND PATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS: The gecko was in lean body condition with an irregularly shaped, firm mass in the coelomic cavity. Radiographically there was a diffuse radio-opacity within the coelomic cavity with cranial displacement of the right lung field. Ultrasonography revealed a round homogenous abdominal mass of medium echogenicity with an echogenic capsule. Haematology showed a leucocytosis with a moderate left shift in heterophils and toxic changes. Bilateral ovariectomy was performed to remove two ovarian granulomas and Salmonella enterica subspecies houtenae (IV) was cultured from the ovarian tissue. The gecko recovered well from the surgery, regained weight and remained in good health 3 years following the surgery.

DIAGNOSIS: Pre-ovulatory stasis and ovarian granulomas associated with infection with Salmonella enterica subsp. houtenae.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The surgery described in this case resulted in recovery of the gecko, which despite its loss of reproductive capability is of value as an education animal. This is the first report of pre-ovulatory stasis and ovarian granulomas associated with infection with Salmonella enterica in a Duvaucel's gecko and is also the first reported case of pre-ovulatory stasis in a viviparous lizard species. The case adds to knowledge regarding potential reproductive pathology in lizards, which is particularly important information for managers of captive lizard breeding programmes.
