Fowl Paralysis: The Infectivity of Fowl Tissue Suspensions to Baby Chicks

Modeling the anxiety-depression continuum hypothesis in domestic fowl chicks.

Anxiety and depression are currently classified as separate clinical syndromes despite considerable similarities in their symptoms, pathophysiological substrates and response to treatment interventions. An alternative hypothesis views anxiety and depression along a temporal continuum, a construct that the current research attempts to model in a preclinical setting. In experiment 1, socially rai...

Fowl Paralysis and Other Forms of the Avian Leukosis Complex

The disease called fowl paralysis, together with several other allied conditions classed together as the avian leukosis complex,^ causes a tremendous loss to the poultry industry. The paralysis form of this disease complex was first recognized in the United States along the eastern coast about 1920. During the last 20 years the avian leukosis complex has spread rapidly until few flocks of chick...

Fowl cholera.

Pasteurella multocida subspecies multocida is the most common cause of fowl cholera, although P. multocida subspecies septica and gallicida may also cause fowl cholera-like disease to some extent. However, the virulence properties of the different subspecies for various hosts have not been elucidated. The severity and incidence of P. multocida infections may vary considerably depending on sever...

The Fowl Leukosis Complex

(Continued from page 31) this pathological cycle is to raise the blood oestrogen level to that stage at which the corpus luteum regresses. This can be done by injecting 25 mg. of stilboestrol dipropionate and potentiating the uterus into rhythmic contractions by injecting posterior lobe pituitary. A similar treatment may be used in case of pyometra. (Brownlee, G. (Wellcome Physiol. Res. Lab., B...
