| [redescription of haemaphysalis flava and ixodes tanuki collected from a raccoon dog in korea]. | a total of 135 hard ticks consisting of 2 species of 2 genera, 117 haemaphysalis flava and 18 ixodes tanuki, were collected from a korean raccoon dog (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) caught at the moaksan (mt.). chollabuk-do, korea in march 1995. it is the first record that i. tanuki appears in the korean fauna. | 1997 | 9100433 |
| atrial septal defect in a korean wild raccoon dog. | an approximately two-year-old, male 6.1 kg body weight, korean wild raccoon dog (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) was captured by the wildlife medical rescue center of kangwon national university. upon physical examination, the heart rate was 87 beats per min and there were no clinical signs. the hematological, and blood biochemical profiles revealed no remarkable findings; however, thoracic radiographs showed cardiac enlargement, especially in the right atrium. on electrocardiogram, sinus no ... | 2017 | 28804099 |
| intraspecific comparison of complete mitogenome sequences from two asian raccoon dogs (canidae: nyctereutes procyonoides). | we determined the complete mitochondrial genome (genbank accession number: kf709435) of the korean raccoon dog nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis and compared it with a previously published mitogenome (genbank accession number: gu256221) of a chinese raccoon dog. the total length of n. p. koreensis mitogenome is 16,802 bp, with a base composition of 32.1% a, 26.9% t, 26.8% c and 14.2% g. high similarity of 98.7% was found between the complete mitogenome sequences of korean and chinese raccoon do ... | 2015 | 24409844 |
| detection of antibodies against the rabies virus in korean raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis). | rabies has been reported in dogs, cattle, and raccoon dogs in korea, especially in the provinces of gyeonggi and gangwon. the aim of this study was to investigate the seroprevalence of the rabies in wild korean raccoon dogs by using 50 blood samples collected in gyeonggi and gangwon provinces. antibodies against rabies were measured by using a fluorescent antibody virus neutralization test. of the 50 blood samples tested, 20 raccoon dogs (40%) tested positive. seropositive animals were distribut ... | 2012 | 22448528 |
| complete genome sequences of three rabies viruses isolated from rabid raccoon dogs and a cow in korea. | the complete genomes of three rabies viruses (bd0406cc, bv9901pj, and 08f40) of two raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) and a cow were determined. the genomic organization is typical of rabies viruses, and the open reading frames of the n, p, m, g, and l genes are 1,353, 894, 609, 1,575, and 6,384 bases in length, respectively. the full genome length of the three strains was 11,928 nucleotides, and the sequence similarity between the rabies viruses at the nucleotide level was 98.5- ... | 2013 | 23975690 |
| effects of alprazolam on capture stress-related serum cortisol responses in korean raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis). | the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of alprazolam on the stress that korean raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) may experience while caught in a live trap by measuring their serum cortisol response. the animals were placed in a live trap with or without being pretreated with oral doses of alprazolam. in both groups, pre-trap blood samples were initially collected without anesthesia before the animals were positioned in the live trap; then post-trap blood samples we ... | 2011 | 21368571 |
| detection of spotted fever and typhus group rickettsial infection in wild raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) in chonbuk province, korea. | both the spotted fever and the typhus group rickettsioses are potential emerging arthropod-borne infectious disease complexes in korea. wild raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) sheltered at the korean society for the protection of wild animals, chonbuk branch, korea, were sampled for the presence of spotted fever and typhus group rickettsial pathogens. thirty-six serum samples of wild raccoon dogs were examined by an indirect fluorescent antibody test using type-specific yh strain ... | 2008 | 18634203 |
| molecular epidemiology of rabies virus isolates from south korea. | a molecular epidemiological study was performed on 13 korean virus isolates, which were collected from wild and domestic animals diagnosed as rabid between 1998 and 2004. seven samples were from domestic animals such as dogs and cattle infected by rabid raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis), and the rest of the six samples were from raccoon dogs in the wild. the study was carried out based on the comparison of nucleotide and amino acid sequences of nucleoprotein (n) and glycoprotein ... | 2005 | 16051390 |
| seroprevalence of antibodies to neospora caninum in dogs and raccoon dogs in korea. | neospora caninum is an important cause of abortion in cattle, and dogs are its only known definitive host. its seroprevalence among domestic urban and rural dogs and feral raccoon dogs (nyctereutes procyonoides koreensis) in korea was studied by indirect fluorescent antibody test (ifat) and by the neospora agglutination test (nat), respectively. antibodies to n. caninum were found in 8.3% of urban dogs and in 21.6% of dogs at dairy farms. antibody titers ranged from 1:50 to 1:400. antibodies to ... | 2003 | 14699266 |
