BHK cell derivatives, saponin and aluminium hydroxide, all of which are commonly present in foot-and-mouth disease vaccines, were injected subcutaneously into 10 cattle and the serum levels of anti-BHK reagins and passive haemagglutinating antibodies were followed. The reaginic antibodies rose to a peak titre one to two weeks after the stimuli and waned during the third week. They had a serum half life of about three days, assuming exponential decay, and were generally undetectable four weeks after last contact with antigen. Passive haemagglutinins were slower to develop and two or more stimuli were usually required to produce detectable antibody levels. They were also slower to subside and were demonstrable for at least 10 weeks after last contact with antigen in most cases. Clinical reactions provoked by the intradermal injection of lysate into sensitised cattle were not correlated with the serum reagin or passive haemagglutinin levels or their ratio to one another at time of the reactions. The reasons for this are discussed.

Eight collie-cross pups, eight weeks old, were inoculated intramuscularly with an aluminum hydroxide adjuvanted preparation of killed Bordetella bronchiseptica; the inoculation was repeated after two weeks. Two weeks after the second inoculation, the vaccinated dogs and a control group of four unvaccinated animals were placed in contact with a group of five pups of similar age which had been experimentally infected with a pathogenic strain of B bronchiseptica by an aerosol method. All four unvaccinated control dogs as well as all five experimentally infected dogs developed a respiratory disease characterised by persistent coughing. Six of the vaccinated dogs remained free from clinical respiratory disease while disease was less severe and of shorter duration in the remaining two than in controls. Only slight changes were found in the lungs of vaccinated animals at necropsy while in the controls there was a severe tracheobronchitis. There was a marked reduction in the numbers of B bronchiseptica isolated from the respiratory tract of vaccinated animals when compared with controls. An aluminium hydroxide adjuvanted vaccine may be of value in controlling naturally occurring canine respiratory disease in which B bronchiseptica is involved.

Chicks vaccinated with live Hitchner B1 Newcastle disease vaccine at 17 days old and subsequently re-vaccinated with an oil emulsion killed Newcastle disease vaccine at either 38 or 52 days old showed high and persistent HAI antibody levels for at least eight months. Re-vaccination of these birds at 17 weeks old caused a further rise in antibody level to log212 which, even at 38 weeks, had dropped only to log210. Chicken primarily vaccinated with oil emulsion killed vaccine at six weeks old developed HAI antibody levels after four to five weeks of log29 which re-vaccination four weeks later increased to log211. Chicken given killed aluminium hydroxide adjuvant Newcastle disease vaccine were serologically HAI negative 13 weeks after vaccination while those given the oil emulsion vaccine still showed an antibody level of log28. Groups of birds inoculated with oil emulsion vaccine and then, at 20 weeks old, challenged with virulent Newcastle disease showed a 100 per cent survival rate. The particular merits of oil emulsion killed Newcastle disease vaccine for laying and breeding birds are discussed.

The aim of this study is to describe the presence of neuroendocrine (NE) cells (paraneurons), producing biogenic amines and/or peptidergic hormones, in the female urethra of cattle, sheep, pigs, and horses, by means of histochemical and double labeling immunofluorescent techniques. 5-Hydroxy-tryptamine-, chromogranin A-, cholecystokinin- and somatostatin-containing NE cells are present in the urethral epithelium of all the species studied, with the unique exception of the lack of somatostatin cells in the horse. Paraneurons containing 5-hydroxytryptamine colocalized with chromogranin A or cholecystokinin were also found in all subjects. Such active substances are hypothesized to play a role in the contraction of the urethral musculature, emission of urogenital fluids, and inhibition of endocrine and exocrine secretions.

Various vaccines containing the 919 strain of ephemeral fever virus were evaluated in experimental calves and in commercial cattle. The vaccine virus was mixed with one of the adjuvants, Quil A (a saponin derivative), aluminium hydroxide gel, dextran sulphate or combinations of these. The response of experimental calves was evaluated by measuring the production of neutralising antibodies and by resistance to challenge with virulent virus; the response of commercial cattle was judged only by the production of neutralising antibody. Twelve calves given two doses of vaccine containing Quil A produced neutralising antibodies to bovine ephemeral fever virus and all were resistant to challenge with virulent virus given 28 to 76 days after the second vaccination. The vaccine given in three of these calves also contained aluminium hydroxide gel. Six of eight unvaccinated control calves succumbed to experimental challenge. In commercial cattle (17 to 26 animals per group) the serological response after two doses of vaccine containing Quil A or Quil A and dextran sulphate was significantly better than that after vaccines containing only dextran sulphate or after vaccines containing combinations of aluminium hydroxide gel and Quil A. The adjuvant Quil A alone was tested in cattle and shown to produce a transient soft swelling at the injection site as well as a rise in rectal temperature of greater than 1 degree C one day after inoculation. At least 99.99 per cent of viral infectivity was destroyed when the vaccine was mixed with Quil A, suggesting that live virus may not be essential in the immunogenicity of the vaccine. This vaccine overcame two of the problems associated with previous attenuated vaccines tested in Australia; the necessity for adjuvant and virus to be mixed immediately before use and the large volume of the vaccine.

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy probably results from the use of commercial diets containing scrapie-contaminated ingredients. Of all the chemical and physical decontamination procedures which are effective against conventional viruses, only high temperature autoclaving, high concentrations of sodium hypochlorite, and possibly molar sodium hydroxide, are useful against the group of unconventional transmissible agents which includes scrapie. The implications of this problem for the rendering industry and farm practice are discussed.

The occurrence and aetiological significance of Aspergillus fumigatus, an opportunistic pathogen, have been studied in 93 animals with various ophthalmological problems. A total of 93 eye swabs collected from 35 mules, 26 dogs, 13 fowl, 11 cattle, five buffaloes and three camels were investigated mycologically for the presence of A fumigatus. The pathogen was isolated in pure and heavy growth from the swabs from two dogs, one bull, one mule and one fowl. The fungus was also demonstrated directly in clinical material by the potassium hydroxide technique. A fumigatus could not be cultured from the buffaloes and camels. All the five cases had been treated with broad spectrum antibiotics and cortisone and two had received traumatic injury to the eyes (one mule and a bull). The organism was not isolated in pure culture from the conjunctival swabs of 22 apparently healthy animals (11 dogs, six mules, three fowl and two cattle). Many other saprophytic fungi were recovered in mixed cultures but were considered to be contaminants. The clinical signs and diagnostic criteria of oculomycosis have been discussed.

A toxoid prepared from the toxin of Vibrio cholera was adjuvanted with aluminium hydroxide and used for immunisation of pregnant gilts. Litters of these and of non-vaccinates were experimentally challenged with Escherichia coli producing either heat labile and heat stable (LT and ST) enterotoxins or ST enterotoxin only. Both the challenge strains of E coli produced high rates of mortality (64 and 68 per cent) and morbidity (80 and 100 per cent) in litters of non-vaccinated dams. Statistically highly significant protection against the LT/ST enterotoxin producing strain of E coli was obtained accompanied by the absence of colonisation of the small intestine by the pathogen. No protection against the ST enterotoxin producing strain was found. It is suggested that this vaccine would not confer passive protection to piglets against K99 and 987-positive E coli which usually produce ST enterotoxin only.

Selenium deficient barley grown in Northern Ireland was treated with sodium hydroxide to deplete it of vitamin E. Housed cattle fed a complete diet based on this treated barley developed nutritional degenerative myopathy, showing that spontaneous myopathy in yearling cattle can be the result of vitamin E and selenium deficiency alone. The diet used is as effective and cheaper than others presently in use for inducing degenerative myopathy.

The binding of colloidal iron hydroxide (CI) and ruthenium red (RR) to the plasma membrane of frog ependymal astrocytes was examined by electron microscopy. Positively charged CI and RR bind to the external surface of the plasma membrane of all parts of the ependymal astrocyte. Prior treatment with neuraminidase markedly reduces the number of bound CI particles, suggesting that the sialic acid of carbohydrates associated with the cell surface is responsible for much of the CI binding. Comparable observations were made on mouse ependymal cells. These findings indicate that an anionic, carbohydrate-rich cell coat occurs on the plasma membrane of amphibian ependymal astrocytes and mammalian ependymal cells. This cell coat may be related to transport, barrier, or receptive functions of ependymal cells.
