| hematologic and clinical chemistry reference values in red lories (eos spp.). | we established reference ranges for three hematologic and 15 clinical chemistry parameters of 40 clinically healthy birds of the genus eos. the following species were included to the study: eos histrio (n = 19), eos squamata (n = 8), eos bomea (n = 5), eos reticulata (n = 4), eos cyanogenia (n = 4). detailed information concerning methodology, which is often missing in papers dealing with reference values, is included. as far as possible, data are compared with literature, and some thoughts on o ... | 2003 | 11195643 |
| biologic and molecular characteristics of toxoplasma gondii isolates from striped skunk (mephitis mephitis), canada goose (branta canadensis), black-winged lory (eos cyanogenia), and cats (felis catus). | toxoplasma gondii isolates can be grouped into 3 genetic lineages. type i isolates are considered virulent to outbred mice, whereas type ii and iii isolates are not. in the present report, viable t. gondii was isolated for the first time from striped skunk (mephitis mephitis), canada goose (branta canadensis), and black-winged lory (eos cyanogenia). for the isolation of t. gondii, tissues were bioassayed in mice, and genotyping was based on the sag2 locus. toxoplasma gondii was isolated from 3 o ... | 2004 | 15562622 |
