The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
The antimicrobial activities of organic releasing chlorine disinfectant (Virusnip™) was evaluated and compared by semi-quantitative suspension-neutralization method under clean condition in vitro. The test organisms were clinical bacterial isolates of hemolytic Escherichia coli, Salmonella Typhimurium, Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Hadar, Salmonella Infantis, and Salmonella Virchow. Fungal isolates were Candida albicans and Trichophyton mentagophytes. Four sets of Virusnip™ concentrations were prepared at 1:100, 1:200, 1:400 and 1:1000 for bacteria and 3 sets of 1:100, 1:200 and 1:400 for fungi. Each set of various concentrations was kept at room temperature for 1, 2 and 7 days before use. The assays were performed at …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis is an important zoonotic disease that concerns the survival of endangered species and public health aspects. A 17-year-old, female Malayan tapir from a zoo in Thailand died with a sign of panting after anesthesia for the treatment of her oral problems. Grossly, multiple caseous white nodules were scattered throughout the parenchyma and bulged from the capsular surface in affected organs such as lung, lymph node and liver. Histologic examination revealed multifocal to coalescing granulomas characterized by caseous necrotic center, loosely organized inflammatory zone with low numbers of Langhans’s giant cells and thin fibrotic zone. A …

An Outbreak Of Avibacterium Paragallinarum Serovar B In A Thai Layer Farm, Kridda Chukiatsiri, Suwit Chotinun, Niwat Chansiripornchai
The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Avibacterium paragallinarum serovar B was diagnosed and revealed in a layer farm. The infected chickens showed mucous nasal discharge, facial edema and conjunctivitis. Egg production also decreased dramatically. Necropsy findings showed lesions of conjunctivitis and edematous tissue around the eyes. The infraorbital sinuses were filled with a caseopurulent mass and tracheitis. Bacterial isolation and identification was performed and confirmed by PCR technic. A hemagglutination inhibition test using specific antibodies against serovar B revealed the Avibacterium paragallinarum serovar B infection. A pathogenicity test done in 10 layer chickens, showed clinical signs of nasal discharge, facial edema and conjunctivitis. This is the …

Comparative Study Of Temperatures Used In Silicone Impregnation Of Porcine Hearts Plastination, Damri Darawiroj, Adisorn Adirekthaworn, Sayamon Srisuwattanasakul, Kongkiat Srisuwattanasakul
The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Forced impregnation process is normally performed under vacuum at freezing temperature which requires expensive plastination apparatus. To reduce the cost in the plastination process, forced impregnation of porcine hearts under two different environments, which are at the freezing temperature (-20oC) and at room temperature (22-25oC), was compared. Twelve porcine hearts were collected from a slaughter house, and divided into the groups, six in each, and subjected to be plastinated by S10 standard technique at the two temperatures. Although the forced impregnation at room temperature, also the curing process, was more time-consuming, all hearts from both groups produced satisfying plastinated specimens. …

Comparative Study On Six Different Long Term Commercial Extenders For Fresh Boar Semen, Kampon Kaeoket, Titisa Srisowanna, Ubonrat Wichaidit, Panida Chanapiwat, Sukanya Manee-In
The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
In Thailand, there are numerous commercial extenders for preservation of boar semen; however, no study has been carried out to compare these extenders in view of maintaining of sperm motility, plasma membrane integrity and acrosome integrity during cold storage. The aim of this study was to assess the percentage of sperm motility, HOST positive, viability and acrosome integrity of boar spermatozoa extended in Merck-III, Androstar®Plus, ModenaTM, NUTRIXcell®, VITASEM LD, Duragen and Dofu goldTM. Ejaculated from boars (n=6, one ejaculate from each boar) were collected and sub-samples (splited samples) were diluted (3x109 spermatozoa/100 ml) in the different extenders and stored for …

The Contribution Of Active Efflux In Reduced Susceptibilities To Copper Sulfate And Zinc Chloride In Escherichia Coli Isolates From Swine, Chailai Koowatananukul, Nisit Chansong, Rungtip Chuanchuen
The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
A hundred-eighty Escherichia coli isolates from swine were tested for minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 9 antimicrobials and two heavy metals copper sulfate and zinc chloride. All the E. coli isolates were resistant to at least one antibiotic and 175 (97.2%) isolates were multi-drug resistant. Forty antibiotic resistance patterns were identified, of which the most common pattern was AMP-CHP-CIP-ERY-GEN-STR-SUL-TET-TRI (13.3%). All the isolates formed one large population of susceptibility to copper sulfate and zinc chloride at the concentrations of 6.4-12.8 mM and 3.2-6.4 mM, respectively. Exposure to copper sulfate and zinc chloride at sublethal concentration did not change the susceptibility. …

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
Blood pressure, urinary protein creatinine (UPC) ratio and oxidative stress (plasma melondialdehyde, urinary melondialdehyde creatinine ratio; UMDA/Cr, the activities of red blood cell catalase; RBC-CAT and red blood cell glutathione) were studied in 42 dogs with urolithiasis and 14 control healthy dogs. The types and location of calculi were defined. The results showed that calculi preferentially found in male and female dogs were calcium oxalate and struvite, respectively. In female, calculi found mostly at urinary bladder while in male, they could be found in either urinary bladder and/or urethra. Dogs with urolithiasis were normotensive. However, UPC ratio was higher significantly …

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship of calcium concentration in seminal plasma on elephant semen quality including of volume, concentration, pH and percentage of progressive motility, dead sperm and abnormal morphology, respectively. Semen collection and evaluation were done in 9 elephants of Thai Elephant Conservation Centre, National Elephant Institute, Forest Industry Organization at Lampang. Calcium in seminal plasma was measured by using colorimetric method. Data were analyzed by using Linear Regression. The results revealed that amount of calcium in seminal plasma was negative correlated with only percentage of progressive motility (p<0.05). Ejaculates were separated into three groups based on their progressive motility percentage including of low, moderate and high-motile semen (0-5%, >5-40% and >50%, respectively) and …

The study was conducted to examine the effect of different parthenogenetic activation (PA) protocols on developmental competence and quality of embryos, and to establish the parthenogenetic embryonic stem (ptES)-like cells in pigs. Compacted cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were collected from porcine ovaries and then cultured in M199-medium. After 44 hrs of culture, matured MII-oocytes were selected and divided into three groups. Oocytes in each group were stimulated with three different activation protocols as protocol I: 1.36 kV/cm, 30 μsec, 2 pulses; protocol II: 1.50 kV/cm, 60 μsec, 2 pulses and protocol III: 1.0 kV/cm, 80 μsec, 3 pulses, and followed by …
