Abstract
Aim: The present study was undertaken to serologically detect Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) in the cattle population of Odisha, India using micro-Serum neutralization test (micro SNT) and Avidin-Biotin Enzyme linked immuno sorbent assay (AB ELISA) and finding out their comparative efficacy to serve as a suitable diagnostic tool in field condition.
Materials and Methods: The study was carried out using serum samples (n=180) collected randomly from cattle populations of nine districts of Odisha. Similarly vaginal swabs (n=26) from cattle having history of repeat breeding, abortion, vulvo-vaginitis and nasal swabs (n=8) from calves with respiratory symptoms and nasal discharge were collected aseptically, to ascertain the circulation of virus among the cattle population.
Results: Virus isolation by cell culture and subsequent confirmation by polymerase chain reaction confirmed four isolates. Screening of serum samples revealed 9.44% and 12.22% samples positive for IBR antibodies in micro SNT and AB ELISA respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of AB ELISA test was found to be 88.23% and 95.70% respectively taking micro SNT as gold standard and the kappa value between the two tests was 0.75.
Conclusion: Screening of serum samples revealed 9.44% and 12.22% samples positive for IBR antibodies in micro SNT and AB ELISA respectively, thus highlighting the circulation of virus among the livestock population of Odisha and that AB ELISA could be more efficiently applied for the sero-diagnosis of IBR virus infections at field conditions, with demand for more study on faster, efficient and large scale screening of the infected animals.

Abstract

Aim: To assess the pattern of infection pattern by artificially infected Eimeria strains of Korean isolates and assessed the degree of sporulating oocysts at different temperature.
Materials and Methods: Birds were orally inoculated with oocysts of Eimeria tenella, Eimeria maxima and Eimeri acervulina. Oocyst count, oocyst isolation and sporulation were evaluated from the fourth to the tenth day post infection. Histopathological studies also made in the caecum and intestinal to comparative lesions.
Results: Mean oocyst counts of these species increased more quickly on the day of 5th to 6th of post-infection. E. acervulina reached its highest infection level on the 6th day while both E. tenella and E. maxima had peak on the 7th day. The prepatent period of oocyst output in the E. acervulina started 120 h and ended on the 10th day after inoculation, whereas the E. maxima started oocyst output at 144 h and E. tenella oocyst output at 168 h respectively. The best temperature for optimum sporulation was found to be at 250C at sporulation rate of 88.91%, while at 200C sporulated 88.03%, and at 300C sporulated 82.44%.
Conclusion: Current study represent the pattern of infection, pathogenesis and optimum sporulation temperature and our results suggested that 250C is optimum for sporulated oocyst of Korean isolates of E. tenella, E. maxima and E. acervulina.

Protecting bees to safeguard our future

Beekeeping is an integral part of farming in every region of the world, as either a core or side-line business. Often it is small-scale and, in many countries, bees are farmed traditionally. The size of beekeeping operations depends on socio-economic factors: in some countries, 20 bee colonies are enough to support an entire family, while in others a single operation might comprise as many as 2,000 hives.
Honey and royal jelly are just two of the valuable foods derived from honey bees. As bees are the main pollinators of wild and cultivated plants, they render a vital service to ecosystems by contributing to their sustainability and to maintaining biodiversity. Humans therefore have bees to thank for our bountiful harvests of fruit and vegetables, which bolster world food security.
The loss of these key pollinators, either bred or wild, would be a biological, agricultural, environmental and economic disaster. Maintaining healthy populations of these pollinating insects (of which more than 17,000 known species exist) is a critical health challenge deserving the full attention of the global community.
It is very difficult to diagnose and control diseases of honey bees as they live only in highly socialised colonies. More than for any other species in the animal kingdom, the sound clinical observation and diagnosis of bee diseases requires a great deal of expertise.
Even though bees play such a vital role, beekeeping is given less attention than other livestock sectors, despite the major problems it currently faces.
Changes in agricultural practices are impacting on populations of bees and wild insect pollinators. In almost all cases, bee diseases merely serve to exacerbate existing factors contributing to colony collapse, such as irresponsible use of pesticides. Growth in the acreage requiring pollination leads to more intensive use of migratory beekeeping, rendering disease control even more difficult and encouraging disease transmission among colonies. Increased use of monoculture impoverishes cultivated plant species, reducing the nutrients available to colonies. Environmental pollution from all sources is also poisonous to bees and weakens colonies.
All this is compounded by the indifference of pharmaceutical companies, resulting in limited treatment options, and by widespread lack of training among beekeepers whose enthusiasm and empiricism does not always make up for insufficient knowledge. Not only does this severely inhibit the ability to detect early signs of disease and implement appropriate biosecurity measures within apiaries, it also encourages misuse of therapeutics.
To counter this alarming situation and in line with its mandate to improve animal health and welfare worldwide – and so help to fight poverty and hunger – the OIE recently reaffirmed its commitment to the sector by making bee mortality and diseases one of the priorities of its Strategic Plan 2011-2015. However, bee health is no new concern for the OIE: the Delegates of its Member Countries adopted their first resolution on bees back in 1947.
Apart from addressing the high-profile collapse of honey bee colonies in North America, Europe and Japan in recent years, the OIE has been doing substantive work to provide Veterinary Services around the world with consistent, science-based recommendations on bee diseases and precautions for avoiding transboundary spread.
Indeed, bee diseases have become globalised mainly because of the failure by public administrations to control cross-border trade in breeding stock, genetic material and agricultural products. Yet most bee mortality is due to common diseases, including the six main infestations listed by the OIE, caused by Acarapis woodi, Paenibacillus larvae,Melissococcus plutonius, Aethina tumida, Tropilaelaps spp and Varroa spp. The Varroa mite, a small arthropod causing varroosis, has already invaded virtually the entire planet and, alone or in combination with other viral or chemical factors, inflicts serious damage on bees worldwide.
In response, the OIE develops international animal health standards on these bee diseases, which are considered and adopted democratically by the 178 Member Countries. This culminates in official certification that provides reliable guarantees for trade in breeding stock, genetic material and hive products.
By holding annual training seminars and making its network of expertise available to Member Countries on request, the OIE works to build national Veterinary Services’ capacity to improve apiary surveillance and observations in the field.
OIE Member Countries have a statutory obligation to report animal disease events. Transparent animal health information is an important prerequisite for disease management because of the high risk of disease spread posed by migratory beekeeping and by regional and international trade in live bees, genetic material, beekeeping equipment and hive products. Online and mail-order sales of breeding stock, eggs and other items have been instrumental in the globalisation of bee diseases.
The OIE also contributes to the global dissemination of technical and scientific information by making online publications available free of charge.
Preserving the health of bees, both bred and wild, is an integral part of good environmental management, food security and enhanced global agriculture. Neglecting bee health and allowing our planet’s bee populations to collapse would have a far-reaching impact on the environment, agriculture and the economy.
The international community should pay utmost attention to harmonising bee health management because, by protecting bees, we are also safeguarding our future.
