The fluorescent antibody technique for diagnosis of equine histoplasmosis (epizootic lymphangitis). Summary
The fluorescent antibody technique (FA) was evaluated as a diagnostic aid for the diagnosis of equine histoplasmosis, using sera from ten clinical cases of epizootic lymphangitis. The globulin fraction was separated, quantitated and then labelled with fluorescein isothiocynate. Of several antigen fixatives, heat-fixation was the best. Conjugated sera diluted 1:5 yielded the highest fluorescence intensity with heat-fixed mycelial antigen preparations. Acetone and P-formaldehyde treated preparations gave a less efficient intensity. Glutaraldehyde was the least effective fixative.

Laboratory investigations on equine influenza during the outbreak in Poland in 1980. Summary
The outbreak of equine influenza in Poland in 1980 was caused by an equine influenza virus antigenically related to the strain A/equine/Miami/63/Heq2, Neq2. This was confirmed by isolation of six strains of influenza virus from horses suffering from the acute form of the disease. About 45 % and 69 % of positive results were obtained in the HI test performed with sera taken from convalescent and affected animals, respectively. A relatively high level of antibodies against newly isolated equine influenza virus strains was found in 50 % of serum samples taken from the grooms. A relativ...

Evaluation in donkeys on an inactivated Venezuelan equine encephalitis vaccine.
Summary
Seven donkeys were immunized with a Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus vaccine which had been prepared by inactivation of the virus with formalin and Tween-80-Tri(n-butyl)phosphate and addition of saponin. Fourteen days later they, and four non-vaccinated controls, each received 50,000 suckling mouse intraperitoneal LD50 units of challenge virus. None of the seven immunized donkeys demonstrated signs of clinical illness or viremia. Of the four non-vaccinated controls, all became ill and one died. These results suggest that more extensive experiments might well be carried out on ...
