Data collected from an outbreak of excessive mortality of mink kits in 4 Danish mink farms in 1982 were analysed. The mortality of the mink kits was found to be highest for the kits from Aleutian Disease (AD)-positive females, and the Scanblack mink was found to be the most frequently affected mink type. Furthermore the mortality was found to depend on the farm of origin and to be highest for the lastest born kits. The age of the females and their location in sheds were found not to influence the mortality of the kits. However, the mortality for the Pastel mink decreased with increasing distance from the Scanblack mink. The possibility that the excess mortality of the kits might be due to an AD-virus infection is discussed.
对1982年丹麦4个水貂养殖场水貂幼崽大量死亡疫情收集的数据进行了分析。发现感染阿留申病(AD)阳性母貂所产的水貂幼崽死亡率最高,且扫描黑貂是最常受影响的水貂类型。此外,死亡率取决于养殖场的来源,且最新出生的幼崽死亡率最高。发现母貂的年龄及其在棚舍中的位置不影响幼崽的死亡率。然而,随着与扫描黑貂距离的增加,帕斯特尔水貂的死亡率有所下降。讨论了幼崽超高死亡率可能是由AD病毒感染所致的可能性。
