As part of a case-control study designed to identify fowl cholera risk factors, 2087 blood samples were collected from 71 California meat-turkey flocks. Samples were tested for antibodies to three mycoplasmas and four viruses pathogenic for turkeys. Flocks that had antibodies to Newcastle disease virus and/or Mycoplasma meleagridis had an increased risk of having an outbreak of fowl cholera. This information should prove useful for fowl cholera control programs in meat turkeys.
作为一项旨在确定禽霍乱风险因素的病例对照研究的一部分,从71个加利福尼亚肉用火鸡群中采集了2087份血样。对样本进行了针对三种支原体和四种对火鸡致病病毒的抗体检测。对新城疫病毒和/或火鸡支原体有抗体的鸡群发生禽霍乱疫情的风险增加。这些信息对肉用火鸡的禽霍乱控制计划应会有用。
