Carbon Dioxide Fixation In Schistosoma Mansoni, Clint Earl Carter
Carbon Dioxide Fixation In Schistosoma Mansoni, Clint Earl Carter
Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects
Adults of the blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni were perfused from the hepatic portal system of CF1 female mice sixty to seventy days post infection. The worms were then incubated in Eagle’s minimal essential medium with glutamate and 0.03 mg/100 ml of nonlabelled aspartic acid. To this medium was added 10 μc of either NaH1403, glucose-UC14 or aspartate-4-C14. The worms were found to fix carbon from the NaH1403 and to incorporate the glucose and aspartate. The amount of activity recovered in five different chemical fractions after two hours incubation was determined …

Hydatid Disease In Western Australia, K J. Austen
Hydatid Disease In Western Australia, K J. Austen
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
BECAUSE hydatid disease is a disease of humans as well as animals every consideration must be given to its control and to the prevention of any possible increase in incidence.
The incidence of hydatids in Western Australia has not, in the past, been very high.
However, the great increase in sheep numbers which has taken place in recent years and which is expected to continue for many years to come, will produce a situation where it could be expected that the incidence of the disease will rise unless stock owners, particularly sheep owners, take appropriate steps to control the tapeworms …
A Measure Of Clover Infertility In Ewes, N Davenport
A Measure Of Clover Infertility In Ewes, N Davenport
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
SERIOUS impairment of the breeding ability of ewes grazed for prolonged periods on growing pastures containing dominant subterranean clover has been experienced in Western Australia for many years.
The first widespread recognition of the problem coincided with the upsurge of improved pasture establishment based on the Dwalganup variety of subterranean clover in the higher rainfall sections of the wheatbelt and adjacent sheep raising areas to the west and south.
Worms In Sheep. 3. Control Of Worms By Drenching, R W. Butler
Worms In Sheep. 3. Control Of Worms By Drenching, R W. Butler
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
DRENCHING for worm control must be carefully timed in relation to the effect of climatic conditions on the development and survival of worm larvae on the pastures, and the seasonal variation in worm burdens carried by sheep.
Choking Of Milking Machine Pulsators, G R. Olney
Choking Of Milking Machine Pulsators, G R. Olney
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE value of applying the teat cup squeezing action more slowly, by "choking", has been well demonstrated for a number of years.
Leslie and Whittlestone (1938) suggested that brutal teat cups and snappy pulsators could be undesirable because of the trauma caused.
Choking was recommended by them to overcome this.

These Worms ........ Caused This, F C. Wilkinson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE weather had been remarkably pleasant, with an odd shower of rain followed by several warm days.
Just the weather for blowfly troubles, so the owner decided it was time he crutched his breeding flock of 500 ewes.
But as the mob approached the yards trouble was coming
Worms In Sheep. 2. Seasonal Variations In Worm Burdens, R W. Butler
Worms In Sheep. 2. Seasonal Variations In Worm Burdens, R W. Butler
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The first article in this series described the worms which commonly infest sheep in Western Australia and the symptoms caused by heavy infestations.
This article outlines the effects of seasonal changes on worm burdens in sheep.
AS a basis for planning a worm control programme it is essential to have information on the seasonal changes in worm burdens and on the factors which control these.
In this article, the more important of these are considered.
