Prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in Canadian market-age pigs.

During 1991 and 1992, 2,800 market-age pigs were sampled at federally inspected abattoirs from across Canada. Anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG at titers of > or =1:32 were found in 240 pigs examined by a commercial, latex agglutination test. Seroprevalences ranged from 3.

Prevalence of Trichinella nativa in lynx (Felis lynx) from Alaska, 1988-1993.

Lynx (Felis lynx) carcasses were collected during the 1989 to 1990 through 1992 to 1993 trapping seasons in Alaska (USA). Seven areas were represented. Tongue samples were removed from 1,065 carcasses.

Glucose and glutamine metabolism in pre-attachment cattle embryos in relation to sex and stage of development.

Individual Day-7 embryos (morulae to expanded blastocysts) were incubated with radiolabelled substrates and karyotyped to determine the sex. In Exp. 1, embryos were incubated for 3 h with D-[1-14C]glucose, as a measure of the activity of the pentose-phosphate pathway (PPP) and D-[5-3H]glucose, as a measure of total glucose metabolism.
