field experience with heartwater (cowdria ruminantium) in cattle.observations are reported on 2743 animals immunised against heartwater since 1958. the methods of immunisation and control of reactions are discussed. this procedure is not without risk and 0,83% of the animals died in spite of treatment. bos indicus breeds appear to have a greater resistance to heartwater and are relatively easy to immunise. of the box taurus breeds the south devon, the jersey and the charolais seem to be particularly susceptible. older animals and pregnant cows are considered ...1979553971
investigations on the natural and acquired resistance of cattle to artificial infection with cowdria ruminantium.sixty cattle, artificially immunized against c. ruminantium, were challenged 3, 6, 12 and 24 months later. levels of conglutinin were determined in pre-immunization serum samples. there appeared to be a relationship between the pre-infection levels of conglutinin and the susceptibility of the animals to heartwater: at the time of immunization 31 out of 60 cattle (51,6%) with levels in the low-titre range (1:100-1:160) showed a typical febrile response, whereas 29 (48,4%) with conglutinin levels ...1979553974
heartwater in nigeria. ii. the isolation of cowdria ruminantium from live and dead animals and the importance of routes of inoculation.a study was carried out to determine which materials from animals dying or dead of heartwater could initiate the disease in susceptible goats, using the intravenous and subcutaneous routes. c. ruminantium was consistently isolated by intravenous injection of the whole blood or of lung macrophages and by subcutaneous injection of brain homogenate. in animals dead of heartwater, it appeared that isolation of the organism was achieved only when extensive post-mortem autolysis had not supervened. ex ...1978625798

attempted artificaial infection or impala, blue wildebeest, buffalo, kudu, giraffe and warthog with heartwater.intravenous injection of cowdria ruminantium infected blood produced no sings of disease in four impala, aepyceros melampus; three blue wildebeest, connochaetes taurinus; a buffalo, syncerus caffer; a kudu, tragelaphus strepsiceros; a giraffe. giraffa camelopardalis and a warthog, phacochoerus aethiopicus. a control sheep injected with the same blood reacted severely and showed typical lesions of heartwater at autopsy.1976994140
preliminary observations on the use of the capillary flocculation test for the diagnosis of heartwater (cowdria ruminantium infection).a capillary flocculation test was developed to diagnose heartwater disease of ruminants. antigen was prepared from the brains of cattle and goats highly infected with cowdria ruminantium. sera were obtained from experimentally infected ruminants which either recovered naturally or with the aid of oxytetracycline treatment. antibodies were first detected one to two weeks after clinical recovery or after treatment, and persisted for periods varying between one and four weeks. control sera collecte ...19761030824
