Chemiluminescent response of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) following exposure to sublethal concentration of diazinon
Chemiluminescent response of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) was assessed to determine the effect of various concentrations of diazinon on the phagocytosis of grass carp in order to evaluate the fish immunity after exposure to this toxic chemical. One hundred and twenty specimens with individual weight of 850±155g were exposed to various concentrations of diazinon at 1, 2 and 4mg/L provide...
متن کاملAn Integrated Approach to Bubonic Plague Control in a Southwestern Plague Focus

متن کاملAdaptive strategies of Yersinia pestis to persist during inter-epizootic and epizootic periods
Plague is a flea-borne zoonotic bacterial disease caused by Yersinia pestis. It has caused three historical pandemics, including the Black Death which killed nearly a third of Europe's population in the 14th century. In modern times, plague epizootics can extirpate entire susceptible wildlife populations and then disappear for long time periods. Understanding how Y. pestis is maintained during ...
