The influenza A/fowl plague virus/Rostock/34 hemagglutinin (HA), which is cleaved intracellularly and has a high pH threshold (pH 5.9) for undergoing its conformational change to the low-pH form, was expressed from cDNA in CV-1 and HeLa T4 cells in the absence of other influenza virus proteins. It was found, by biochemical assays, that the majority of the HA molecules were in a form indistingui...

Khorasan wheat is an ancient grain with previously reported health benefits in clinically healthy subjects. The aim of this study was to examine whether a replacement diet, thereby substituting all other cereal grains, with products made with organic khorasan wheat could provide additive protective effects in reducing lipid, oxidative and inflammatory risk factors, in patients with Acute Corona...

The subgroup J of ALV (ALV-J) has emerged as an important pathogen of meat-type chickens since1989. This virus is responsible for economic losses due to both mortality and depressed performance inchickens. So, the objective of this study is the detection of ALV-J in the albumen of commercial and nativefowl eggs using RT-PCR. Three hundred and seventy egg albumens were randomly selected from dif...

HE lack of an ancestral “standard of reference”, “normal” or “wild type” T for use in genetic studies of the domestic fowl has been of little concern to many poultry geneticists (for a recent discussion of this topic see JAAP and HOLLANDER 1954). In the field of plumage color inheritance, however, a standard of reference seems necessary in describing the action of mutant genes. What the standar...
