Пастерельоз – хвороба кролів, яка характеризується ринітом, пневмонією, орхітом, середнім отитом, септицемією та утворенням абсцесу. Іноді інфекція P. multocida може бути протікати безсимптомно. Були проведені гематологічний, біохімічний аналіз сироватки крові, цитокінів запалення, імунологічний гістопатологічний аналізи. Результати показали, що у кроликів, хворих типу B, спостерігали макроцитарну гіпохромну анемію лейкоцитоз зі значним підвищенням відсотка індексу фагоцитарної активності....

Елюростронгільоз котів є важким паразитарним захворюванням, що спричиняється легеневими нематодами Aelurostrongylus abstrusus. Ефективне лікування цієї патології базується на використанні комбінованих методів, які включають антигельмінтні препарати, додаткову терапію та ретельний моніторинг стану тварини. Метою дослідження було оцінити ефективність різних схем котів, інвазованих елюростронгільозом, а також визначити оптимальні підходи до їх терапії. Дослідження проведено у ветеринарному...

Iron, as an essential micronutrient, plays a crucial role in host–pathogen interactions. In order to limit the growth of pathogen, common strategy innate immunity includes withdrawing available iron interfere with cellular processes microorganism. Against that, unicellular parasites have developed powerful strategies scavenge iron, despite effort host. Iron-sequestering compounds, such approved and potent chelator deferoxamine (DFO), are considered viable option for therapeutic intervention....
