Previous karyotypic analysis of human small cell lung cancer lines has demonstrated a consistent deletion portion the short arm chromosome 3(p14-23). DNA prepared from tumors and normal tissues obtained 24 two extrapulmonary patients was hybridized to four probes that detect restriction fragment length polymorphisms within region 3p14-21. Of 25 who were heterozygous for at least one marker in this tissue, 23 (92%) showed an unequivocal loss heterozygosity their tumor tissue. From these...
As fears rise over resistance, some countries have banned routine use of antibiotics in animal feed. <b>David Wallinga</b> says a ban is possible without damaging food productivity, but G S Burch</b> argues that the drugs used agriculture are not those causing problems with resistance humans
The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for valnemulin, tiamulin, enrofloxacin, tylosin, and lincomycin/spectinomycin were determined a virulent strain of Mycoplasma gallispeticum (MG). At the initial reading, lowest MICs seen with valnemulin followed by relatively high MIC lincomycin/spectinomycin. final at 14 days, similar pattern was obtained, giving (< 0.008 mg/ml). same MG used to infect groups 20 2-day-old chicks in two separate experiments. In both, several tiamulin one each...
There has been much confusion over the significance of spirochaetes found in caeca laying hens and impact they may have on egg production. In recent years, situation made clearer presence such species as Brachyspira pilosicoli shown to cause a mild, chronic disease both layers breeders reduce production by reportedly 5%. United Kingdom, multi-age caged site with three separate flocks approximately 12 000 birds each was chronically infected B. but displayed few clinical signs except for...
The antibacterial effects of a combination tiamulin and chlortetracycline in vitro against number field isolates Pasteurella multocida, Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae Bordetella bronchiseptica were examined. There was marked synergism between the two antibiotics all eight P seven nine H single strain B tested. Two trials carried out on herd with history complicated enzootic pneumonia where presence Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae multocida had been established subsequently discovered. Feed containing...
THE fact that large quantities of antimicrobials are used in pig production the UK has led to assumption antimicrobial resistance must be posing major problems. This, turn, raises a number pertinent questions. For example, do veterinary practitioners feel is compromising successful treatment their patients? Are overused pigs or they not prudently? Finally, does use have an adverse effect on humans, either directly from transmission resistant zoonotic pathogens indirectly through via...
ABSTRACT The cryosurgical treatment of canine anal furunculosis is described
Tiamulin hydrogen fumarate has been shown to be highly active in vitro against Mycoplasma hyosynoviae, an organism that causes arthritis pigs. A gilt-multiplier herd with a history of this condition was selected evaluate the efficacy tiamulin vivo for treatment disease. The presence M hyosynoviae confirmed by its isolation from two typically affected cases. field trial carried out on clinically pigs, using at 10 mg and 15 mg/kg bodyweight given injection three consecutive days, comparing...
