چکیده

It is only to be regretted that this step was not taken earlier, for the large number of idle bulls now in the herd is both a detriment to that body and a positive loss of once good skins. This menace in the growth of the herd has been repeatedly pointed out (Clark, 1914, 1916, 1917; Osgood, Preble, and Parker, 1915) to those having the matter in charge. The last column in table 1 contains the estimated annual totals for the herd. These numbers are highly artificial in that they are largely made up of computed elements and they are, therefore, so remote from direct observation that their detailed consideration is scarcely worth while. The fact that all elements of the herd have separately increased between 1912 and 1917 is reflected in the increase of these calculated totals from 215,738 in 1912 to 468,692 in 1917. In conclusion it may be stated that since 1912 the steady increase in the numbers of pups born, and of harem bulls and the decrease since 1913 of the average harem are most favorable signs in the growth of the herd. The one unfavorable feature during this period is the considerable increase in idle bulls in 1915, 1916, and especially in 1917. This increase, which can be eventually checked, shows that active commercial killing should have been restored some years ago.

Nasal Immunization by (PLGA) Nanospheres Encapsulated with Tetanus Toxoid and (CpG-ODN)

In induction of systemic and mucosal immunity, particulate antigens are more effective than soluble antigens possibly because they are more efficiently endocytosed by mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) M cells. In this study, we determined the systemic and mucosal immune responses in rabbits following intranasal immunization of tetanus toxoid TT and CpG-ODN encapsulated within PLGA nanos...

Background: One of the major uses of large number of laboratory animals in manufacturing the vaccines is the quality control testing of vaccines, particularly potency testing of vaccines containing the tetanus toxoids by either lethal challenge or serum neutralization tests. Recently, because of various difficulties to obtain quality laboratory animals and in adequate environmental conditions, ...

Toxin-antitoxin Reaction without Neutralization

1. Collodion particles adsorb diphtheria or tetanus or botulinus toxins. These toxins are retained on the particles when washed but are at least in part released in the animal. 2. The adsorbed toxins are neutralized by adsorption of the corresponding antitoxins but are unaffected by other serums. 3. When collodion particles are treated first with tetanus antitoxin, then with diphtheria toxin, t...
