Lectin histochemistry of trachea and lung of healthy turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) and turkeys with pneumonia.
Thirteen lectins were used to characterize lectin-binding specificity of glycoconjugates on sections of formalin-fixed lung and trachea from seven normal turkeys, two turkeys with acute pneumonia, and two turkeys with chronic pneumonia. Neuraminidase was used to digest sialic acid residues. One N-acetylgalactosamine-binding lectin and two N-acetylgalactosamine/galactose-binding lectins stained ...
متن کاملMolecular Surveillance for Lymphoproliferative Disease Virus in Wild Turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) from the Eastern United States
Lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) is a poorly understood, oncogenic avian retrovirus of domestic turkeys that has historically been restricted to Europe and Israel. However, a recent study reported LPDV in multiple wild turkey diagnostic cases from throughout the eastern United States of America (USA). To better understand the distribution of LPDV in the eastern USA, we surveyed 1,164 re...
متن کاملHealth risk assessment for the introduction of Eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) into Nova Scotia
Health risk assessment for the introduction of Eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) into Nova Scotia" (2004). 2 This health risk assessment evaluates potential health risks associated with a proposed introduction of wild turkeys to the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia. The preferred source for the turkeys would be the Province of Ontario, but alternative sources include the nort...
متن کاملUltrastructural studies of the lung of turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) inoculated intratracheally with Escherichia coli.
To test the hypothesis that walls of air capillaries are a site for Escherichia coli to pass the air-blood barrier, fimbriated and nonfimbriated strains of E. coli were inoculated intratracheally into 18-day-old turkeys. Venous blood was cultured, and turkeys were necropsied from 0.5 to 8 hours post-inoculation. Lungs were processed for histopathology and electron microscopy. E. coli 078 was id...
متن کاملCytological and Cytophotometric Analysis of Binucleated Red Blood Cell Mutants (bn) in Turkeys (MELEAGRIS GALLOPAVO).
INUCLEATED cells occur in a variety of tissues in plants and animals normally and under varying physiological conditions (e.g., anemia, stress, ageing, regeneration, malignancy and viral infection) (BLOOM 1968). Among animals, naturally occurring binucleated cells have been observed in organisms of the following classes: Protozoa, Nematoda, Crustacea, Arachnida, Insecta, Agnatha, Pisces, Amphib...
