TL;DR: The prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in the domestic fowl was studied in the Strakonice district in southern Bohemia (Czechoslovakia) between 1981 and 1990 and the presence of antibodies and T. Gondii cysts was ascertained by means of Sabin-Feldman dye tests and isolation assays.
Abstract: The prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in the domestic fowl was studied in the Strakonice district in southern Bohemia (Czechoslovakia) between 1981 and 1990. The presence of antibodies and T. gondii cysts was ascertained by means of Sabin-Feldman dye tests and isolation assays, respectively. Of 3338 samples of chicken serum from 13 small backyard operations, antibodies were detected in 5.1% of cases. T. gondii cysts were found in two of 10 chickens examined. A total of 1120 chickens from a commercial farm was tested and antibodies were found in 0.01% of them. Isolation assays were made on 1097 chickens and T. gondii cysts were found in 0.36% of them. In small backyard operations, tests for antibodies were made on 28 guinea-fowl (negative), 297 ducks (1.7% positive) and 32 geese (15.6% positive).

TL;DR: The evaluation of individual progesterone profiles has revealed that the microplate ELISA detects the time of ovulation at the same time as it is determined by the RIA and clinical examination.
Abstract: Several assay systems (3H radioimmunoassay (RIA) with and without extraction; microplate enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA); qualitative ELISA (tube test)] were used to measure plasma progesterone concentration in mare plasma. The direct RIA showed a close correlation (R = 0.94) with the extraction RIA. The direct RIA and the microplate ELISA were compared in two different studies. In the first study 1155 samples of postpartum mares were used for progesterone determination with both assays. The ELISA resulted in more elevated values both in oestrus and dioestrus (0.19+/-0.3 and 2.44+/-3.62 nmol/l for oestrus, n = 436, and 8.94+/-4.29 and 27.88+/-18.34 nmol/l for dioestrus, N = 719, for the RIA and ELISA, respectively, R = 0.71). The evaluation of individual progesterone profiles has revealed that the microplate ELISA detects the time of ovulation at the same time as it is determined by the RIA and clinical examination. The sensitivity and specificity were calculated for different progesterone threshold values. In the second study including 7 non-pregnant, cycling mares the progesterone concentration of 240 samples was determined by both assays. Basal values (Day 0) obtained with the ELISA were higher (1.57 nmol/l) than those of the RIA (0.2 nmol/l). Both curves reached the same maximum concentration (12.11 and 12.45 nmol/l) 5 days after ovulation. The correlation between the RIA and ELISA values was high (R = 0.90). The tube test was compared to the microplate ELISA as reference using 576 plasma samples of 34 non-pregnant, non-cycling mares included in an ovulation induction study. Of these samples 118 had higher and 458 had lower values than 3.18 nmol/l. In most cases the tube test was in complete agreement with the microplate ELISA. The sensitivity, specificity, + predictive and - predictive values for the tube test were 79.7%, 95.4%, 81.7% and 94.8%, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, thermal stability of vegetative cells of Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus plantarum was studied by counting viable fractions and determining DSC curves of their suspensions.
Abstract: Thermal stability of vegetative cells of Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus plantarum was studied by counting viable fractions and determining DSC curves of their suspensions. DSC curves in the 5–99°C range showed a series of endothermic transitions between 50 and 60°C, where the heat destruction of cells occurred. Heat denaturation of DNA required a higher temperature than cell killing. Thermal death was strongly influenced by the pH, composition and NaCl content of the suspending buffer. A mathematical model developed by us enabled comparison of DSC peak temperatures and temperatures required for loss of viability.

TL;DR: Data suggest that, as a result of the adaptation of the peripheral deiodination, thyroidectomized animals were able to convert more T4 to T3 than were normal ones.
