Toxocara canis, cynomolgus macaques (exper.), visceral larva migrans, hematologic and serologic changes, neurologic signs, diminished growth rates, diagnostic antibody titers in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, severe granulomatous hepatitis and encephalomyelitis, no ocular lesions, basis for clinical interpretation and diagnosis in humans

Haemonchus contortus with exceptionally long spicules recovered from vaal ribbok and bontebok, measurements

Amblyomma hebraeum, percentage and rate of female attachment to rabbits was higher (except shortly after release of females) around feeding males than in areas previously treated with extract of fed males, effect of elapsed time and of number of males vs. equivalent extract on attachment values, results prove bioassays to be valid for component and extract-equivalent assessment

gastrointestinal nematodes in calves (exper.) causing severe anemia, effect on preparation of carrier erythrocyte ghosts and erythrocyte survival

A study was conducted to determine aflatoxins in tissues and non-tissues of 2 Holstein cows given oral doses of 0.35 mg of purified aflatoxin B1/kg of body weight/day for 3 consecutive days. Cow 1 was slaughtered 24 hours after the 3rd dose, and cow 2, after day 3, was fed aflatoxin-free rations for 7 additional days before slaughter. Tissue samples of brain, gallbladder and bile, heart, intestine, kidney, liver, lung, mammary gland, skeletal muscle, spleen, supramammary lymph nodes, thymus, and tongue, and nontissue samples of blood, feces, milk, rumen content, and urine were examined. Aflatoxins B1 and M1 were found in all samples of cow 1, except the thymus. Kidney, liver, and mammary gland had the highest concentrations of total aflatoxins (57.9, 13.2, and 25.1 ng/g, respectively), with the aflatoxin M1 concentration 40 times more than the aflatoxin B1 level in kidney. Aflatoxin residues were present (0.02 to 0.11 ng/g) only in kidney, liver, and intestine of the tissues from cow 2 (fed aflatoxin-free feed for 7 additional days). Aflatoxin B1 was not present in nontissue samples, but aflatoxin M1 (0.10 and 1.5 ng/ml) was found in the last milk and urine samples from the same cow. Urine assays are a possible way to monitor the presence of aflatoxin residues in meat tissues.
