These samples were routinely digested and analyzed for lead, cadmium, nickel, chromium, and zinc using atomic absorption spectrophotometry assay. Mann‑Whitney U test was used to compare concentrations of the metals in different samples. Dust samples contained a high amount of the metals considered. There was no significant difference between levels of heavy metals in blood and hair samples from dogs guarding both sites, except for blood (p = 0.034) and hair (p = 0.015) chromium which were higher in those securing site A compared with site B. Higher nickel (p = 0.001) and zinc (p = 0.001) with lower chromium (p = 0.004) levels occurred in the hair samples than in the blood. Lead was not detected in blood and hair samples suggesting safety. There was no correlation between the same metal in blood and hair. Hair chromium and nickel levels were above the reference suggesting toxic exposure. There is a need for regular monitoring and decontamination of air pollutants within similar facilities for environmental safety.","PeriodicalId":23550,"journal":{"name":"Veterinaria italiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9617050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identification and confirmation were achieved with specific PCR and PCR‑RFLP. An overall M. mycoides subsp. mycoides isolation rate of 6.87% (33/480) was obtained. In Adamawa State, 12 (10.91%) isolates of M. mycoides subsp. mycoides came from both, lung tissues and pleural fluids. While in Taraba State, 5 (7.14%) and 4 (5.71%) isolates of M. mycoides subsp. mycoides came from lung tissues and pleural fluids, respectively. The samples from nasal and ear swabs from the study states were negative for M. mycoides subsp. mycoides. Thirty‑three out of the 37 culture positive isolates were confirmed to be Mycoplasma mycoides subspecies mycoides with the production of a band equivalent to 574‑bp. Molecular typing with restriction endonuclease Vsp1 results in the two bands of 180‑bp and 380‑bp. In conclusion, the study has established an isolation rate of 6.87% for M. mycoides subsp. mycoides.

The magnetic resonance imaging of the pelvis and a surgical biopsy diagnosed a mycotic myositis and osteomyelitis of the iliac wing and gluteal muscles. Aspergillus terreus was isolated from culture of urine and lymph nodes aspirates. The antifungal susceptibility test showed moderate sensitivity to Itraconazole. After one month of therapy with itraconazole, the dog presented discospondylitis of L1‑L2 and partial ureteral obstruction due to mycotic bezoar that was resolved with medical treatment and itraconazole dose elevation. After twelve months, itraconazole was suspended; a severe osteomyelitis of the left femur developed, and the dog was euthanised. The necropsy confirmed the presence of mycotic osteomyelitis of the iliac wing and femur, discospondylitis, lymphadenitis and severe granulomatous pyelonephritis. Systemic aspergillosis has rarely been reported in the literature, especially in Italy. The pelvic bone involvement is rare both in dogs and humans.

The most commonly used pharmacodynamic parameter to define potency of antimicrobial drugs is minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibiotic susceptibility of thirty-six strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from dairy goats with mastitis and rabbits with chronic staphylococcosis. Four cephalosporins were tested: cephalexin, cephalotin, cefonicid and ceftiofur. MIC tests were performed according to the microdilution broth method. The calculated values of sensitivity in goats and rabbits were 66.67% and 72.22% for cephalexin, 72.22 % and 94.44% for cefonicid, 77.78% and 94.44% for cephalotin and 77.78% and 100% for ceftiofur, respectively. For all antibiotics, MIC90 of S. aureus from rabbits were lower than MIC90 from goats. These data suggest that more antibiotics are used in goat milk production than in rabbit farming. According to MIC values obtained in this study, ceftiofur and cephalotin may be the best option for treating S. aureus infections in lactating goats. For rabbits, ceftiofur showed lowest MIC values, therefore, it could be an alternative to treatment the infections caused by S. aureus in this species.","PeriodicalId":23550,"journal":{"name":"Veterinaria italiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9521008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The treatment used furazolidone + β-cyclodextrin complex (1: 2) at a concentration of 60 mg/mL given orally at a dose of 15 mg/kg every 12 hours. The re-epithelialization of lesions occurred between 35 and 41 days of treatment.

In this study, molecular detection of field PPR virus (PPRV) strains was carried out to determine the presence of PPRV. A total of 135 samples (45 oculo-nasal swabs and 90 tissue samples) were purposively collected between August and October 2020 from goats and sheep at the Akinyele live small ruminant market and at Akinyele and Amosun abattoirs in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. Using reverse transcriptasepolymerase chain reaction with primers targeting the partial N-gene of PPRV, 10 out of the 135 (7.4%) field samples yielded positive results. The results of this study reveal that PPRV currently circulates in Ibadan. These findings underscore the need for continuous PPR surveillance, more extensive characterization of circulating PPRV strains and the importance of consistent use of quality vaccines in the country to achieve more effective preventive and control strategies against the disease.","PeriodicalId":23550,"journal":{"name":"Veterinaria italiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9610714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
