Clinical management of the feline urological syndrome.

The management of cases of the feline urological syndrome (FUS) is described with particular reference to urethral obstruction in the male cat. Treatment of the obstructive episode and in the post-obstruction period and the prevention of recurrence of blockage in the longer term are discussed and a technique for perineal urethrostomy described. I N T R O D U C T I O N The clinical signs associa...

Comparison between Manual and Automated Methods for Determination of Canine and Feline Hematocrit and Hemoglobin Concentration

A comparison of automated and manual methods to determine the hematocrit (Hct) and hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations was carried out using 50 canine and 30 feline blood samples. There were significant differences between manual and automated Hct for both the dog (P<0.05) and cat (P<0.01) samples, as well as between the manual cyanmethemoglobin and automated cyanide-free methods for both species (d...

Rationale For Probiotic Supplementation

BIOTICTM FORMULAS: Canine/Feline. Concentrated, non-processed natural food sources of active enzymes, probiotic cultures, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and various other micronutrients. Choose from AddLifeTM (canine-feline), C-BioticTM (canine), F-BioticTM (feline), Biotic pH+TM (canine/feline, for maintaining an alkaline urine), or Biotic pH-TM (canine/feline, for maintaining a...

Combinations of two capsid regions controlling canine host range determine canine transferrin receptor binding by canine and feline parvoviruses.

Feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) and its host range variant, canine parvovirus (CPV), can bind the feline transferrin receptor (TfR), while only CPV binds to the canine TfR. Introducing two CPV-specific changes into FPV (at VP2 residues 93 and 323) endowed that virus with the canine TfR binding property and allowed canine cell infection, although neither change alone altered either property. In...
