JOURNAL FREE ACCESSMale Single-Combed White Leghorn chickens were administered with chlorpromazine(CPZ) and examined for effect of cold on their carbohdyrate values when placed under regular or 18-hour fasting conditions. In the fasting birds, transitory hyperglycemia appeared within 60 minutes after the beginning of treatment of cold, and then the glucose level decreased progressively to give rise to hypoglycemia. When the birds were rewarmed by heating, the glucose level increased to the initial level. In the non-fasting birds, hyperglycemia was also shown 30 minutes after the beginning of cold. Liver glycogen began to decrease 10 to 30 minutes after the beginning of treatment. Blood lactate showed an increase and muscle glycogen a decrease 30 minutes after the beginning of treatment. These changes in blood glucose, liver glycogen, blood lactate, and muscle glycogen were statistically significant. It was a characteristic change in chickens administered with CPZ, that hyperglycemia was induced by treatment of cold as compared with the results obtained from intact birds in the previous experiment by the authors.View full abstractDownload PDF (748K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe human and bovine placentae were investigated for synthesis of serum albumin and γ-globulin. The quantitative precipitin reaction and incorporation of 14C-glycine were used for this purpose. The following results were obtained. 1) When incubated at 37°C for an hour, human placental homogenate produced 65-200 μg of albumin and 35-75 μg of γ-globulin per gram of wet weight of placenta. These productions were not enhanced by use of acid hydrolyzates of plasma proteins as medium. They were markedly reduced by the addition of several metabolic inhibitors to the medium, but increased by the addition of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) at a final concentration of 3×10-3 M to the medium. No incorporation of 14C-glycine occurred. 2) No production of serum proteins was demonstrated in human placenta collected at an early stage of pregnancy and in bovine placenta.View full abstractDownload PDF (832K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe causative agent of the cowpox-like disease, which occurred in Hokkaido, Japan, in the fall of 1962, was isolated from lesions of the infected cow. The results are summarized as follows (Table 4). (1) The disease was clinically identical to cowpox, but its origin is unknown. (2) Some of the materials from the skin lesions of the naturally infected cows produced eruptions on the skin of experimental cows by artificial inoculation. Increase of eruptiveness was recognized on the experimental cow lesions at the 2nd passlevel. (3) The isolation of the causative agent from the skin lesions of naturally infected cows gave negative results in rabbits, the CAM of chicken embryos and cell cultures. (4) The Skin lesions of experimental cows at the 2nd pass-level produccd eruption on the scarified skin of rabbits. However, they neither formed pock on the CAM nor showed CPE on cell cultures. (5) Experimental skin lesions of rabbits at the 2nd pass-level which were obtained after inoculation of the skin lesions of cow at the 2nd pass-level, produced CPE on cell culture but they did not form pocks on the CAM. (6) Pocks were formed on the CAM after receiving the emulsion of rabbit testicles, which showed swelling and hemorrhages after the inoculation of skin lesions obtained from experimental cow at the 2nd pass-level.View full abstractDownload PDF (2464K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSSince 1947, rinderpest in Egypt has been mainly controled by three attenuated virus vaccines namely caprinzed, lapinized, and avianized. Due to the severe reaction of the goat virus, irregularity of the rabbit virus and loss of stability of the egg virus there was urgent need of another suitable live virus vaccine for the immunization of the indigenous animals especially fattened calves. For this purpose the lapinized-avianized (LA) virus vaccine has been successfully produced on a large scale since January 1963. So far 935, 300 doses have been produced, tested and 713, 000 doses were issued to the field. Titre of 1:500 to 1:2500 of this virus provoked solid immunity in vaccinated animals. In laboratory controled experiments about 90% of the vaccinated animals showed positive complement fixing antibody titre. By virtue of the interference phenomenon immunity is provoked three days after vaccination. Only about 23% of the inoculated calves showed slight thermal reaction for 1-3 days mostly from 6th to 7th day of inoculation. During the recent campaign of rinderpest in Behara Province only 0.13% of post-vaccination mortality was reported mostly due to the inoculation of animals during the incubation period of the disease.View full abstractDownload PDF (1309K)
