1. Toxoplasmosis

Author:

Subject:
Protozoa; Toxoplasma; cat diseases; cats; death; distemper; dogs; drugs; eyes; fetus; financial economics; helminthiasis; laboratory animals; lambs; lymphatic diseases; mixed infection; parasites; pneumonia; toxoplasmosis; women; zoonoses; New Zealand
Abstract:
... Toxoplasma is unique among protozoa in its wide distribution and lack of host or tissue specificity. It is a successful parasite in so far as it rarely causes death of the host. The infection is frequently inapparent and this type of infection may be passed from mother to foetus with disastrous results. In domestic animals, it is a cause of serious economic losses, especially among lambs in this c ...

Abstract:
... Itraconazole was used in 35 cats with cryptococcosis. Treatment response was determined by comparing clinical signs before, during, and after treatment. It could not be evaluated in 7 cats because they died during treatment from causes unrelated to cryptococcosis. Of the remaining 28 cats, treatment response was classified as success in 16 cats (57%), as improvement in 8 cats (29%), and as a failu ...

Abstract:
... Fledging success is widely used as an index of reproductive success in avian studies, but survival of young after fledging is rarely estimated. In this study, I used radio telemetry to measure rates and causes of mortality of 63 Black-fronted Terns (Sterna albostriata) in the immediate post-fledging period on the Ohau River, South Island, New Zealand, in 1998–2000. Juvenile survival for four weeks ...

Objective: The third eyelid of domestic animals is important for the production and distribution of tears, in removing ocular debris and in protection of the globe, and has significant immunologic functions. Although it is known that tears contain antibodies of the immunoglobulin A (IgA) isotype which are produced mainly by plasma cells of the lacrimal gland, very little is known about the antibod ...

Abstract:
... Apoptosis (programmed cell death) could be considered as a physiological process that takes part in a healthy organism, which helps to maintain organism homeostasis. The visible deterioration of semen quality and the number of germ cells is accompanied by a seasonal decrease of the reproductive activity in some species. This post-effect cascade is caused by apoptosis, which is the primary mechanis ...
