Chick embryo inoculation as a pathogenicity test for Candida species.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The lesions produced by six Candida species on the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of the developing chick are described and compared. It is suggested that CAM inoculation be used as a pathogenicity test for Candida species.

Cord-forming property, lethality and pathogenicity of Mycobacteria.
The genus Mycobacterium include a great number of non-pathogenic organisms as well as some pathogenic species which cause tuberculosis in mammals, birds and cold-blooded animals. The differentiation between pathogenic strains and non-pathogenic ones is based on the lethal properties of the bacilli for experimental animals, particularly the guinea pig. A strain is not considered pathogenic when ...
متن کاملTrypsin-induced Hemagglutination Assay for the Detection of Infectious Bronchitis Virus
A trypsin-induced hemagglutination (THA) assay was standardized to detect infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) in allantoic fluid (AF) of embryonated eggs. The test was used in 20 samples, each collected from 5 different layer farms suspected for IBV. Allantoic fluid from inoculated embryos was harvested and treated with reagent grade trypsin at the percentages of 0.25, 0.50, 1.0 and 2.0 for 30 mi...
متن کاملTransplantability of Tissues to the Embryo of Foreign Species
Inoculation of the Jensen rat sarcoma into the developing chick embryo gives a rapidly growing tumor at the site of inoculation, whether in the membranes or in the body of the chick itself. These tumors by transfer from embryo to embryo can be kept going for as long as forty-six days, and perhaps indefinitely in the foreign species. The rat cells show no morphological change even after a very l...
متن کاملThe Adaptation of Unmodified Strains of Yellow Fever Virus to Cultivation in Vitro by Hugh
Using a technique similar to that devised by Rivers (1) for the cultivation of vaccinia virus, Haagen and Tbeiler (2) reported successful cultivation of a strain of yellow fever virus which had been greatly modified through many mouse passages by intracerebral inoculation. The medium consisted of chick embryo tissue and Tyrode solution containing 10 per cent of normal monkey serum. However, eff...

Thus, Bohnhoff et al. (1) made mice more susceptible to oral challenge with a streptomycin-resistant strain of Salmonella enteritidis by pretreatment with streptomycin. They concluded that this increase in susceptibility resulted from a disturbance of the normal intestinal microflora. Using a similar method, Freter (2-4) was able to induce an asymptomatie carrier state in guinea pigs and mice w...
