A description is given of an outbreak of equine infectious anaemia (E.I.A.) in Campania [at Naples and Aversa (Caserta)]; it was diagnosed by clinical, pathological and serological examinations (Coggins test). Using the serum of 45 horses with E.I.A. and 11 healthy horses (controls), numerous investigations were carried out on: enzymes, intrinsic coagulation factors, lipids and other substances. The results obtained were very interesting and show that in this disease there are significant increases in many enzymes (LDH, LAP, gamma-GT, CPK, PK and ALD) and copper. Insignificant increases were found in other enzymes (SDH, GLDH, MDH, ICDH, AIP, lysozyme, cholinesterase, GOT and GPT) and also intrinsic coagulation factors, lipid substances (total cholesterol, esterified cholesterol, triglycerides) and glucose. LDH-1-isoenzyme remains unchanged, whilst AcP decreases slightly.

Probenecid in doses of 640 mg/kg was administered to rats by the oral route, and the changes in five important enzymatic activities of urine were recorded thereafter for two days. The resluts exclude that probenecid impairs tubular reabsorption of low molecular weight protein, as urinary muramidase activity was not found increased. On the other hand, increased activities were encountered in those enzymatic activities in urine which derive from the renal tubular cells (ALD, G-6-PDH, LDH). These observations point towards a nephrotoxic effect of probenecid, which, however, is only of very low degree, as other "standard" enzymatic activities of urine, such as alkaline phosphatase, remained unchanged.
