[therapeutic endoscopy in the gastrointestinal tract].in selected chapters of the therapeutic endoscopy we tried to represent secure knowledge, actual tendencies and partly future prognoses. hereby completeness cannot be expected. however, it became clear that numerous physical principles became useful for the therapy with the endoscope. chemical techniques, such as the litholysis of gall-stones are only at present used in our field. with all scepticism against the own field of interest one may say that the operative therapeutic endoscopy, as it is ...2004539002
[classification of stomach and duodenal ulcers].the working classification of the ulcerous disease after melikova is suitable for the differentiated demonstration of the gastric and duodenal ulcers. in connection with this principle of subdivision essential features of the disease, such as localisation of the ulcer, clinical course, morphological characteristics of the ulcer and the ulcer-carrying organ, gastro-intestinal functional parameters and complications of the ulcer are demonstrated.2004539010
identification of a new allele of es-i segregating in an inbred strain of mice.a new allele of es-1, designated es-1e, has been identified in the mouse. this allele was discovered segregating among the progeny of a strain dba/2j male and is apparently the result of a spontaneous mutation within this strain. genetic analyses have shown that this mutation is heritable and, further, that both heterozygous and homozygous progeny are viable and fertile. to date, no discernible deleterious effects have been identified as associated with this mutation.1979540008

a microtiter agglutination test for anti-pasteurella multocida antibodies in turkeys.a microtiter agglutination test (mta) was developed for assaying anti-pasteurella multocida antibodies in turkeys vaccinated with live avirulent clemson university (cu) strain. safranine-o was incorporated with the decapsulated p. multocida antigen and greaterly enhanced the visibility of the sedimented free antigen, which formed a compact red button on the bottom of the well. the advantages of the mta test over the tube agglutination test were that: 1) less antigen and serum were required; 2) d ...1979546401
attenuated live fowl cholera vaccine. i. development of vaccine strain m3g of pasteurella multocida.a live cholera vaccine was developed from a virulent avian septicemia strain of pasteurella multocida serotype 1. the virulent parental strain was mutagenized with n-methyl-n'-nitro-n-nitroso guanidine. mutants were selected that had either smaller colonies at 37 c or temperature sensitivity for growth at 41 c. four small-colony mutants and 2 temperature-sensitive mutants were studied. all the mutants were avirulent for turkeys. sixteen days after turkeys were vaccinated with each mutant, both t ...1979546409
attenutated live fowl cholera vaccine. iii. laboratory and field vaccination trials in turkeys and chickens.administered via the drinking water, m-3-g, an attenuated strain of pasteurella multocida of serotype 1, was found to immunize turkeys and chickens against fowl cholera. immunity was tested by challenging birds intramuscularly, by palatine cleft swab, or orally after 3 vaccinations. no reactions to vaccination were noted in 390 turkeys in 12 laboratory trials, nor in 20,245 vaccinated in field trials. chickens showed no vaccination reactions, and immunity was elicited by challenge in a laborator ...1979546411
the 1978 epornitic of avian cholera on the chesapeake bay.in an outbreak of avian cholera (pasteurella multocida infection) in wildfowl on and around chesapeake bay during march and april of 1978, 31,295 carcasses were retrieved from maryland and virginia. although other birds were involved, mortality was heavy among diving ducks (90% of the total), especially oldsquaw ducks (80% of the total). this is the second outbreak involving primarily diving ducks to be reported from this area of the atlantic flyway. it mimics in many respects the epornitic that ...1979546415
modulation of cross-protection factor(s) of avian pasteurella multocida.cross-protection factor(s) (cpf) of pasteurella multocida were maintained in vitro through at least 9 serial passages. different growth media and temperatures enhanced or repressed the ability of p. multocida to produce cpf. certain amino acids were innoculous to expression of cpf. b-vitamins enhanced cpf, whereas certain inorganic salts repressed cpf. the plasma of normal tuekeys contained a compound or compounds that were responsible for expression and maintenance of cpf.1979546418
[mitochondrial ribosomes of the phytoflagellata astasia longa].the physico-chemical properties of ribosomes and rrna isolated from the mitochondria of the phytoflagellata astasia longa were studied. it was shown that the mitochondrial ribosomes of a. longa have the sedimentation coefficient of 81s (those of the cytoplasm-82s); upon a decrease of mg2+ concentration in the medium they dissociate into subparticles with sedimentation coefficients of 60 and 45s. the relative protein content in the mitochondrial ribosomes of a. longa is equal to 42% (rho = 1,60 g ...2004546444
[an unusual case of entero-vesical fistula caused by a foreign body].the authors describe a rare case of sigmoidovesical fistula due to a foreign body and giving trouble 30 years after the causative surgical procedure, namely an oopheroctomy. the cause of the fistula was apparently some suture material that had not been reabsorbed. surgical excision of the fistula produced a complete recovery.2005546533

[serological typing of isolates of pasteurella multocida from poultry and other animals in the netherlands (author's transl)].pasteurella multocida isolates, isolated from poultry, birds and mammals in the netherlands, were typed serologically. the standard sera were directed against heddleston reference strains. of the 202 isolates, 37.6 per cent were of type 1, 24.2 per cent of type 3, 2 per cent of type 5, 5.9 per cent of type 10 and 3.5 per cent of type 12. cross reactions with two serotypes were shown by 18.8 per cent of the other isolates and with three serotypes by 3.5 per cent. the serotype of p. multocida isol ...1978567387
immunologic and physiologic responses of calves inoculated with potassium thiocyanate extract of pasteurella multocida type a.inoculation of calves with potassium thiocyanate (kscn) extract of pasteurella multocida type a in saline-tris buffer or in freund's incomplete adjuvant or modified freund's incomplete adjuvant resulted in the elicitation of agglutinating, hemagglutinating, bactericidal and homocytotropic antibodies. the antibody response was significantly (p = 0.05) higher in calves inoculated with the kscn extract in either adjuvant than in those inoculated with the extract in saline-tris buffer. hemagglutinat ...1978567948
influence of encapsulation on phagocytosis of pasteurella multocida by bovine neutrophils.the effect of encapsulation on phagocytosis of pasteurella multocida by bovine neutrophils was examined by using two encapsulated strains, na77 (capsular type a) and c42 (capsular type b), and comparing them with an unencapsulated counterpart strain, 1173. the uptake of [(3)h]thymidine-labeled bacteria by neutrophils was quantitatively measured after incubation of the bacteria in normal bovine serum, heat-inactivated serum, and hyperimmune sera (anti-na77 and anti-c42). results showed that all t ...1979574125
unusual infections caused by pasteurella multocida.three cases of infection with pasteurella multocida included acute epiglottitis, septic arthritis, and pleuropulmonary infection. human infections with this microorganism are commonly related either to animal contact (eg, wound infections) or to the presence of underlying chronic respiratory tract disease. although septic arthritis and pleuropulmonary infections have previously been attributed to this pathogen, to our knowledge, this is the first reported case of acute epiglottitis caused by p. ...1977576153
corneal ulcer caused by pasteurella multocida.a 44-year-old woman with graves' disease and exophthalmos developed a severe corneal ulcer caused by pasteurella multocida after being bumped on her right eye by her pet dog. the organism was transferred from the patient to an abraded rabbit cornea and produced a similiar corneal ulcer and hypopyon.1977577379
human pulmonary pasteurellosis.pasteurella multocida causes hemorrhagic septicemia in many domestic and wild animals. the most common human infection with p multocida is a local cellulitis following animal-inflicted wounds, preponderantly cat bites and scractches. the typical clinical manifestations and complications have been well described previously. we present three cases of pulmonary pasteurellosis that were recently evaluated by the infectious diseases service at barnes hospital. in three additional cases, the technolog ...1979582610
demonstration of cross-protection between pasteurella multocida type a and pasteurella haemolytica, serotype 1.mice immunized with the potassium thiocyanate extract of pasteurella haemolytica, serotype 1, were found to resist a challenge infection of p. multocida type a, thus demonstrating cross-protection. this finding was further supported by the finding that an antiserum directed against the potassium thiocyanate extract of p. haemolytica was bactericidal to p. multocida and vice versa.1977591058

acquired resistance in turkey poults to pasteurella multocida (p-1059 strain) during aflatoxin consumption.the potential for impairment by aflatoxin of the development of acquired immunity to fowl cholera in 8 week old turkey poults from a commercial flock was investigated by challenge of vaccinated poults at 10, 12, and 16 weeks of age. sixty poults were allotted to 4 groups: a) aflatoxin fed, nonvaccinated; b) aflatoxin fed, vaccinated; c) control fed, nonvaccinated; and d) control fed, vaccinated. aflatoxin b-1 (.5 ppm) was added to the control ration of groups a and b from 49 to 70 days of age. t ...1978724596
[growth of some pathogenic microorganisms on chemically defined media which were proposed for sensitivity testing (author's transl)].the growth of 16 bacterial cultures, which belong to the frequently encountered pathogens, in three different chemically defined fluid media was investigated through turbidity measurements in comparison with mueller-hinton-broth. e. coli, salm. dublin, salm. typhi-murium, enterobacter cloacae, proteus mirabilis, pseud. aeruginosa and bac. cereus grew in two of the three tested defined media with approximately the same intensity as in the mueller-hinton broth. staph. aureus grew well only in one ...1978730218
clostridium pseudotetanicum bacteremia in a patient with pasteurella multocida conjunctivitis.clostridium pseudotetanicum only once previously has been identified as causing disease. pasteurella multocida has been identified only three times as the cause of purulent conjunctivitis. a very debilitated patient had c. pseudotetanicum bacteremia and p. multocida conjunctivitis from which she recovered only to die of a nosocomial staphylococcus epidermidis septicemia, originating in a site for the administration of intravenous fluids.1978730826
hazards of disease transfer from marine mammals to land mammals: review and recent findings.in a 5-year study (1972-1977) of microbial agents isolated from both clinically normal and diseased marine mammals, it was shown that certain disease agents are widespread in a diversity of ocean populations and that some are also transmissible to a number of terrestrial mammal species. leptospira interrogans serovar pomona has been isolated repeatedly from 2 species of pinnipeds (zalophus californianus califonianus and callorhinus ursinus). some of the more important bacterial pathogens for lan ...1978738931

serological tests as indicators of immunity against pasteurella multocida infection in sheep.five serological tests, i.e. single tube agglutination, doubling dilution tube agglutination, agar agglutination, passive hemagglutination and passive mouse protection tests were evaluated for their efficacy in predicting the fate of vaccinated and unvaccinated sheep on challenge with an ovine strain of pasteurella multocida. the passive hemagglutination test predicted the fate of unvaccinated sheep while the agar agglutination test indicated the immune status of vaccinated sheep.1978743601
[use of attenuated mutants of pasteurella multocida strain, pathogenic to calves, in experimental mouse model studies. 4. immunogenicity of selected revertants of temperature-sensitive, streptomycin-dependent mutants as potential vaccine strains].temperature-resistant or streptomycin-independent revertants were isolated from temperature-sensitive or streptomycin-dependent mutants of a pasteurella multocida strain with pathogenicity to calf. the revertants were tested for virulence in mice and for their immunogenicity against wild-strain infection, using 100 times and more of the lethal dose. the following conclusions may be derived from the results thus obtained: 1. most of the fully attenuated streptomycin-independent revertants failed ...1978749742
studies on pasteurella multocida. vi. nature of systemic immunity and analysis of the correlation between levels of immunity induced by various fowl cholera vaccines and protection against challenge.the nature of the systemic immunity induced by various vaccines against fowl cholera disease in turkeys was investigated. used as vaccines were three avirulent strains (cu, m2283, and p1580) of pasteurella multocida administered in the drinking water and a bacterin administered parenterally. a passive hemagglutination test was developed to measure levels of systemic humoral immunity. systemic cell-mediated immune response was assayed by an in vitro immunostimulation microculture system utilizing ...1978749893
characterization of pasteurella multocida isolates from the nares of healthy rabbits with pneumonia.pasteurella multocida was isolated from 42 of the 135 (31%) deep nasal swabs from clinically healthy conventional rabbits supplied by two vendors. the prevalences were significantly different among sex, age, and sources. the females and adults had higher prevalences when compared to males and juveniles, respectively. one vendor's rabbits had a prevalence of 41% while the other had 20%. biochemically, only 24% of the 42 isolates decarboxylated l-ornithine, and 55% produced indol. all isolates wer ...1978750729
subcutaneous vaccination of chickens with a live, avirulent pasteurella multocida, vaccine.the immunogenic responses to various routes of vaccination of broiler-type chickens to the clemson university strain of pasteurella multocida were evaluated. broilers were vaccinated at 9 or 10 weeks of age using the oral (drinking water), palatine cleft, ocular, or subcutaneous injection routes. all birds were challenged at 11 or 12 weeks of age with virulent x-73 strain of p. multocida by the palatine cleft method. the degree of efficacy of the various vaccination routes differed among three e ...1978751031
determination of corticosterone concentration in plasma of turkeys using raioimmunoassay.a method of determining corticosterone concentration in turkey plasma was developed using radioimmunoassay. compared to fluorometric analysis and competitive protein-binding radioassay, this method had the following advantages: 1) results were consistent, 2) the method was simple and rapid to perform, 3) only 20 lambda of plasma was required, 4) all procedures were performed using the same tube except for counting, and 5) unknown and standard samples were treated identically. the coefficient of ...1978751044
the serological and immunological relationship of type strains a and d of pasteurella multocida to field isolates from sheep.investigations with antisera prepared in rabbits and sheep and active immunity experiments in mice showed that strains of pasteurella multocida which, according to the haemagglutination test, are serologically related, do not necessarily give rise to cross immunity. conversely, it was found that serologically unrelated strains may exhibit an appreciable degree of cross protection. the unreliability of the haemagglutination test as an indicator of immunological identity of strains was further con ...1978754121
fever and reduced iron: their interaction as a host defense response to bacterial infection.when rabbits are infected with pasteurella multocida, the concentration of iron in their plasma decreases and their rectal temperature rises. to determine whether the rise in body temperature (fever) and the fall in plasma iron may be a coordinated host defense response, pasteurella multocida were grown in vitro at various temperatures and iron concentrations. at afebrile temperatures the bacteria grew equally well at low or high concentrations of iron. however, when the temperature of the bath ...1979760197
pasteurella multocida peritonitis in hepatic cirrhosis with ascites.two patients with spontaneous pasteurella multocida peritonitis in association with cirrhosis and ascites are described. both patients had close contact with domestic animals, but neither had been bitten. both patients died, but only one as a result of his infection. we are aware of only one previous report of cirrhosis with spontaneous peritonitis caused by this organism. p. multocida should be considered as a possible cause of peritonitis in cirrhotic patients with a history of close contact w ...1976765189
effect of active and passive immunizations with lipid a and salmonella minnesota re 595 on gram-negative infections in mice.the capacity of lipid a, a structure common to the lipopolysaccharide cores of all gram-negative bacteria, to serve as an active immunizing agent in mice and to protect these animals against gram-negative infections was investigated. active immunization experiments were also performed with the re mutant of salmonella minnesota 595 which carries a lipopolysaccharide composed of lipid a and three residues of ketodeoxyoctonic acid. single injections of lipid a complexed to acid-hydrolyzed bacteria ...1976789248
