PROBIT ANALYSIS APPLIED TO SALMONELLA PULLORUM SURVIVAL DATA

Probit analysis of preference data

A probit analysis method is presented for the analysis of preference data from a behavioural assay of animals, where responses were observed as animals' cheice between the treatment and control sides or areas. Standard probit models designed for alt or nothing phenomena are not applicable topreflerence assays, because a leg dose metameter only indirectly correlates with the choice. The present ...

MyD88 Polymorphisms and Association with Susceptibility to Salmonella Pullorum

Myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MYD88), a universal adapter protein, plays an important role in activating the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and regulating the expression of proinflammatory genes like tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-1 (IL-1), which were highly involved in Salmonella Pullorum infection. To detect the relationship between polymorphisms of the MyD88 gene ...

Thermolabile Sulfite Reductase from Salmonella pullorum'

The biochemical basis for sulfite accumulation by sulfate-using revertants of Salmonella pullorum was determined. All of the sulfate-using mutants isolated from wild-type S. pullorum accumulated sulfite when grown at 37 but not at 25 C. The specific activity of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADPH)-dependent sulfite reductase (H2S-NADP oxidoreductase, EC 1.8.1.2) and of reduced meth...

Les variations dans la fermentation des glucides par Salmonella gallinarum et Salmonella pullorum. Leur intérêt diagnostic

Serological response of chickens to Salmonella thompson and Salmonella pullorum infections.

Chickens were experimentally infected with Salmonella thompson (serogroup C, paratyphoid) and Salmonella pullorum (serogroup D). Five serological methods and one cultural method were used in detecting the infections. The microantiglobulin test was superior to all other methods for detection of paratyphoid (S. THOMPSON) infection and was followed in efficacy by the microagglutination test, rapid...
