In view of the possible use of viruses for the immunotherapy of breast cancer, the replication of a strain of fowl plaque virus was studied in the tumor cells of 11 mammary carcinoma patients with malignant effusions. The tumor cells were obtained by centrifugation on iodamide solutions, then cultured in vitro, and infected by a fowl plaque virus previously adapted to grow in a mammary carcinom...

1. A simple, direct method of counting leucocytes of the fowl is described. 2. Twenty-nine complete, morphological studies of the blood of eleven domestic fowls are recorded. 3. The characteristics of the cells found in the blood and bone marrow are described in detail and their relative numbers reported. 4. The supravital technique, using neutral red and Janus green, enables one to separate an...

This chapter analyzes the adequacy of two university education models according to their Information Communications Technology (ICT) usage: One model is based on the use of ICT as a cornerstone and a cohesive element of the teaching-learning process, whereas the other considers ICT a mere teaching support tool. The preliminary results obtained from a review of case studies reveal that ICT use i...

The purpose of this communication is to bring up to date an experimental study of 55 chemically induced fowl sarcomas, first described some 12 years ago (16-18), and to compare these results with others obtained in parallel experiments with 3 infective fowl sarcomas transmissible by cell-free material. The bearand from further discussion, because they retrogressed during the first serial passag...

Pasteurella multocida is the causative agent of fowl cholera in birds. Signature-tagged mutagenesis (STM) was used to identify potential virulence factors in a mouse septicemia disease model and a chicken fowl cholera model. A library of P. multocida mutants was constructed with a modified Tn916 and screened for attenuation in both animal models. Mutants identified by the STM screening were con...
