[yersinia enterocolitica in acute appendicitis, lymphadenitis mesenterialis and regional enteritis (author's transl)].in 895 patients operated on for acute appendicitis we found yersinia enterocolitica in 41 cases. another two cases were detected in postoperative serological examinations. lymphadenitis mesenterialis was present in 17 cases during operation. once we detected a regional enteritis. histological examination of the appendix revealed a purulent inflammation in 21 cases and a phlegmonous-gangrenous inflammation in 4 cases. the other 18 patients suffered from oxyuriasis, coprostasis or scars of the app ...1976961157
the isolation and identification of leptospira interrogans serovar bratislava from a pig in germany.during a study on the improvement of selective media for the isolation of leptospires from clinical material, leptospires were isolated from the kidneys of a pig. test material was cultured in emjh-medium containing 0.4% rabbit serum and 3 inhibitory substances (rifampicin 10 micrograms/ml, amphotericin b 2 micrograms/ml, 5-fluorouracil 100 micrograms/ml). the cultured leptospira-strain (berlin 406) was identified to serogroup level using the cross agglutination method and it was further typed t ...19921519413
studies on epidemiology and pathogenicity of porcine circovirus.antibodies to porcine circovirus (pcv) which is the smallest animal virus known so far were found in 77-95 per cent of sera from slaughter pigs gathered in berlin and two districts of northern germany. about 60 per cent of these positive sera had relatively high titres similar to those in experimentally infected pigs 3-6 weeks after infection. this indicates that the animals might have become infected during the fattening period. sera from 2-3 year old pigs from a laboratory animal breeding inst ...19863778212

detection of influenza a viruses and influenza epidemics in wild pelagic birds by sentinels and population studies.field experiments with domestic ducks as sentinels and virological and serological population observations on wild pelagic birds on a seabird-breeding island in the baltic sea and on rivers and lakes near berlin were conducted to detect the influenza a virus circulation and epidemics in wild pelagic bird populations. influenza a virus isolates were detected in tracheal and cloacal swabs from sentinel ducks and from healthy pelagic birds. influenza a virus epidemics with different subtypes in an ...19827170852
[residues of dichlorvos (ddvp) in sausages and bacon following placement of mutox strips in sales rooms of butchers' shops].the purpose of the present series of experiments was to study the ddvp residues in sausages and bacon resulting from the placement of mutox strips in the sale-rooms of butchers' shops. after extraction from the samples, dichlorvos was determined thin-layer chromatographically using cholinesterase inhibition. the results obtained show that neither bacon nor lard should be kept for a prolonged period in a sale-room where mutox strips are hanging. sausages hanged up at a distance of 1 m from the mu ...19817290176
[is research in veterinary homeopathy justified? thoughts concerning principles and synopsis of 5 years of research on the subject, "use of homeopathy in domestic animals," at the branch of the free university of berlin in schwarzenbek].supported by the karl- and veronica-carstens-stiftung and deutsche homöopathische union (dhu) in summer '87 a project dealing with homoeopathic treatment of domestic animals was initialized at the field station of the freie universität berlin in schwarzenbek. after a period of five years the studies have been completed in summer '92 and the following results were achieved: 1) homoeopathic drugs (considering the similarity) are suitable to reduce the morbidity rate of newly housed fattening pigs ...19948080424
[the helminth fauna of wild boars of the west berlin forests].samples of muscles and internal organs obtained from 96 wild boars in the forests of west berlin between september 1989 and august 1990, were examined for helminths. nine nematode species, metastrongylus pudendotectus, m. salmi, m. confusus, m. apri, physocephalus sexalatus, ascarops strongylina, globocephalus urosubulatus, ascaris suum and trichuris suis belonging to five families could be found. larvae of toxocara spp. were isolated from most of the enzymatically digested samples of the gastro ...19938343108

alaria alata mesocercariae in raccoons (procyon lotor) in germany.alaria alata is a trematode of carnivores from europe. the mesocercarial stage was recently identified in wild boar meat from europe. previous histopathologic studies showed the presence of unidentified parasitic cysts within the tongues of raccoons from northern germany. for identification of the parasite species, tissue samples of 105 raccoons originating from a national park in northern germany and from berlin metropolitan area were collected. histological examination of cryotome sections of ...201323892481
tularaemia seroprevalence of captured and wild animals in germany: the fox (vulpes vulpes) as a biological indicator.a total of 2475 animals from germany, both captive and wild, were tested for antibodies against francisella tularensis to obtain more knowledge about the presence of this pathogen in germany. an indirect and a competitive elisa served as screening methods, positive and inconclusive samples were confirmed by western blot. of the zoo animals sampled between 1992 and 2007 (n = 1122), three (0·3%) were seropositive. the seroconversion of a hippopotamus in berlin zoo was documented. from 1353 serum s ...201322800496
genetic epidemiology and pathology of raccoon-derived sarcoptes mites from urban areas of germany.the raccoon, procyon lotor (carnivora: procyonidae), is an invasive species that is spreading throughout europe, in which germany represents its core area. here, raccoons mostly live in rural regions, but some urban populations are already established, such as in the city of kassel, or are starting to build up, such as in berlin. the objective of this study was to investigate sarcoptes (sarcoptiformes: sarcoptidae) infections in racoons in these two urban areas and to identify the putative origi ...201425171612
rat hepatitis e virus: geographical clustering within germany and serological detection in wild norway rats (rattus norvegicus).zoonotic hepatitis e virus (hev) infection in industrialised countries is thought to be caused by transmission from wild boar, domestic pig and deer as reservoir hosts. the detection of hev-specific antibodies in rats and other rodents has suggested that these animals may represent an additional source for hev transmission to human. recently, a novel hev (rathev) was detected in norway rats from hamburg, germany, showing the typical genome organisation but a high nucleotide and amino acid sequen ...201222554648
Local drug delivery - the early Berlin experience: single drug administration versus sustained release.Our initial investigations into restenosis inhibition by local drug delivery were prompted by reports on an improved outcome of coronary interventions, including a lower rate of target lesion revascularisation, when the intervention was performed with an ionic instead of non-ionic contrast medium. Although this was not confirmed in an animal study, the short exposure of the vessel wall to paclitaxel dissolved in contrast agent or coated on balloons proved to be efficacious. A study comparing thr ...201122027723
leptospirosis in urban wild boars, berlin, germany.we found antibodies to leptospires in 25 (18%) of 141 wild boars from berlin (95% confidence interval 12-25). seropositivity was associated with chronic interstitial nephritis (odds ratio 10.5; p=0.01), and leptospires were detected in kidney tissues. wild boars represent a potential source for human leptospirosis in urban environments.200717553254
[progress on oecd chemicals programme (11)--siam 19 in berlin, 2004].the 19th screening information data set (sids) initial assessment meeting (siam 19) was held in berlin, germany, hosted by the germen federal agency for the environment. the initial assessment documents of four substances (cas numbers: 92-70-6, 126-33-0,131-17-9, 7580-85-0) and one category (high molecular weight phthalate esters) at siam 19 were submitted by the japanese government with or without the international council of chemical associations (icca) and all of them were agreed at the meeti ...200617405526
epizootiologic investigations of parvovirus infections in free-ranging carnivores from germany.to assess if wild carnivores in germany play a role in the epizootiology of canine parvovirus (cpv) infection, seroprevalences against cpv in free-ranging carnivores (n=1,496) from selected urban and rural areas were compared. antibodies against cpv were found in sera from red foxes (vulpes vulpes; 136 of 1,442; 9%), raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonides; two of 33; 6%), stone martens (martes foina; four of 13; 31%), and pine martens (martes martes; one of two) using the hemagglutination-inhibit ...200515827228
[the beginnings of animal virology in germany].animal virology started in 1898 with the discovery of fmd virus. the finding resulted from a close collaboration between friedrich löffler (university of greifswald) and paul frosch (then at robert koch's institute in berlin). their work in greifswald was greatly hampered by the danger of dissemination of foot and mouth disease in the surroundings. therefore löffler proposed to set up a research unit on the island of riems in the baltic sea. in the fall of 1910 work could start in the research i ...199711625169
autochthonous and imported trichinella isolates in germany.the study of trichinella isolates from wildlife in germany revealed the presence of trichinella spiralis and trichinella britovi in wild boars and foxes. t spiralis was detected in meat products imported from spain, which is one of the two endemic areas of domestic trichinellosis in the european union: it was also detected in meat from a grizzly bear marketed in alaska, and trichinella nativa was detected in a polar bear from the berlin zoo. these results stress the importance of examining for t ...200010622607
wild inside: urban wild boar select natural, not anthropogenic food resources.most wildlife species are urban avoiders, but some became urban utilizers and dwellers successfully living in cities. often, they are assumed to be attracted into urban areas by easily accessible and highly energetic anthropogenic food sources. we macroscopically analysed stomachs of 247 wild boar (sus scrofa, hereafter wb) from urban areas of berlin and from the surrounding rural areas. from the stomach contents we determined as predictors of food quality modulus of fineness (mof,), percentage ...201728403244
identification of encephalitozoon cuniculi genotype iii and two novel genotypes of enterocytozoon bieneusi in swine.samples of intestinal content from thirty fattened pigs of six farms slaughtered at an abattoir in north-western germany, and faecal samples of four pigs kept as laboratory animals at the federal institute for risk assessment (bfr, berlin, germany) were investigated for the occurrence of microsporidia by light microscopy, pcr and sequencing. a modified webers trichrome staining and the immunohistochemistry (the avidin-biotin-peroxidase-complex technique with a polyclonal anti-encephalitozoon cun ...200919318131
