| coccidia of coyotes in eastern colorado. | eighty-two coyote fecal samples were collected from eastern colorado and examined for coccidia. sporocysts of sarcocystis were observed in 17 of the samples and oocysts of isospora ohioensis were observed in two samples. ten fecal samples contained eimerian coccidia thought to be pseudoparasites of the coyote acquired while ingesting heavily infected rabbits. | 1977 | 402487 |
| unexpected limitations in the use of commercial antiglobulin reagents. | the majority of antiglobulin sera used in blood banks in the usa are commercially prepared immune rabbit sera, designed to be reactive only with human red blood cells sensitized with immunoglobulins or complement components. current manufacturing methods result in a product that gives reliable specific reactions provided that the test red blood cells are normal, particularly with respect to sialic acid levels. this report describes our findings of false positive antiglobulin tests caused by inco ... | 1976 | 1082669 |
| parasites of the black-tailed jackrabbit in north central colorado. | forty-four black-tailed jackrabbits, lepus californicus melanotis mearns, 1890, were collected near denver from august, 1972, through july, 1973, and amined for parasites. recovered parasites and their infection rates were: eimeria sp. 100%, cittotaenia sp.27%, coenuri of multiceps sp. 57%, cediopsylla inaequalis 14%, hoplopsyllus affinis 9%, haemodipsus setoni 2%, dermacentor andersoni 14%, and haemaphysalis leporis-palustris 25%. | 1975 | 1142561 |

| survey for evidence of colorado tick fever virus outside of the known endemic area in california. | a virus very similar or identical to colorado tick fever (ctf) virus was recovered from the blood clot of one of 104 black-tailed jack rabbits (lepus californicus) examined during a survey for various zoonotic agents in mammals and ticks from the university of california, hopland field station, mendocino county, california, 1974--79. this is the first reported isolation of a ctf-like virus from l. californicus, and only the second time such a virus has been found in northwestern california. mend ... | 1982 | 7102919 |
| serologic and genetic identification of peromyscus maniculatus as the primary rodent reservoir for a new hantavirus in the southwestern united states. | an outbreak of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (hps) in the southwestern united states was etiologically linked to a newly recognized hantavirus. knowledge that hantaviruses are maintained in rodent reservoirs stimulated a field and laboratory investigation of 1696 small mammals of 31 species. the most commonly captured rodent, the deer mouse (peromyscus maniculatus), had the highest antibody prevalence (30%) to four hantavirus antigens. antibody also was detected in 10 other species of rodent and ... | 1994 | 8195603 |
| decomposition and arthropod succession on exposed rabbit carrion during summer at high altitudes in colorado, usa. | six rabbit carcasses were exposed during summer at elevations ranging from 2,713 to 4,191 m in colorado to determine decomposition rates and arthropod succession patterns. biomass removal, bloat, and internal and ambient air temperatures were measured and the arthropod community was monitored during 51-d succession studies. a total of 53 taxa was collected (range, 8-36 taxa), with diversity apparently decreasing as a negative function of elevation. extensive scavenging altered decomposition rate ... | 1999 | 10593088 |
| cysticercosis in laboratory rabbits. | there are no data on the current incidence of taenia pisiformis in laboratory rabbits. two cases of cysticercosis most likely due to t. pisiformis in laboratory rabbits (intermediate host) are presented. both rabbits had no contact with dogs (final host); their caretakers did not work with dogs, and these caretakers changed into facility scrubs and wore gloves when working with the rabbits. rabbit 1 may have been infected after being fed hay at our facility. in light of the life cycle of the par ... | 2001 | 11300689 |
| colorado animal-based plague surveillance systems: relationships between targeted animal species and prediction efficacy of areas at risk for humans. | human plague risks (yersinia pestis infection) are greatest when epizootics cause high mortality among this bacterium's natural rodent hosts. therefore, health departments in plague-endemic areas commonly establish animal-based surveillance programs to monitor y. pestis infection among plague hosts and vectors. the primary objectives of our study were to determine whether passive animal-based plague surveillance samples collected in colorado from 1991 to 2005 were sampled from high human plague ... | 2009 | 20836802 |
