An investigation on various causes of milking disturbances resulting from injuries and abnormalities of mammary system were made in 2,179 Holstein cows. To perform this investigation, 69 dairy farms of the suburban area of Seoul city, Gyeonggi-do and Chungnam provinces were andomly selected and subjected. Diagnosis was made by means of inspection and palpation of teat, insertion of teat canula, checking milk machines, anamneses and farm records. This investigation was, actively done from March 1977 to February 1979, The results obtained were summerized as follows; 1. It was found that 446 cows, accounting for 20.48% of 2,179 cows inspected, had supernumerary teats. Among them 53.59% had one, 43.72% had two, 2.47% had three, and 0.22% had four supernumerary teats, respectively. 2. Dry off quarters were found in 158 quarters which turned out to be 1.8% of 8,716 quarters inspected. Among dry off quarters, 62.02% seemed to be caused by mastitis, 30.37% by acquired teat obstructions, and 7.59% by congenital blind teats and glands respectively. 3. Teat sphincter stenosis was found in 154 teats of 50 cows, which represents 1.76% of 8,716 teats and 2.29% of 2,179 cows inspected, respectively. Among 154 teats with teat sphincter stenosis, 138 teats (85.7%) of 33 cows were found to be congenital and revealed highest incidence. 4. Loose sphincter was found in 78 teats of 36 cows, which figure 0.89% of 8,7l6 teats and 1.69% of 2,179 cows inspected, respectively. Among 78 teats with loose sphincter, 52 teats (66.66%) of 13 cows were found to be congenital and revealed highest incidence. 5. Injured teat tip caused by over milking of milk machine, was found in 229 teats of 156 cows, which figure 2.63% of 8,716 teats and 7.15% of 2,179 cows observed, respectively. 6. Other miscellaneous injuries and congenital abnormalities of teats and udders were diagnosed as follows: The teat laceration was found in 34 teats (0.39% of 8,716 teats), fissure of teat skin in 24 teats (0.28% of 8,716 teats), stricture of teat cistern in 21 teats (0.24% of 8,716 teats), teat fistula in 12 teats (0.14% of 8,716 teats), papillomas on testes in 8 teats (0.09% of 8,716 teats). Knothole orifice in 7 teats (0.08% of 8,716 teats), subcutaneous abscess of udder in 5 quarters (0.05% of 8,716 teats), membraneous obstruction of teat cistern in 4 teats (0.05% of 8,716 teats), and congenital short teat in 8 teats (0.09% of 8,716 teats), respectively.

식도이물은 이비인후과 영역에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 질환이지만 그 합병증으로 식도천공과 이에 따른 종격동염을 일으키는 예는 매우 드물다. 그러나 이러한 종격동염은 극히 위험한 합병증으로서 생명에 위험을 초래하는 예도 적지 않다. 저자들은 최근 식도이물에 의한 식도천공으로 종격동염이 병발한 경우를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. 환자는 69세 여자로 음식물에 섞인 유리조각을 오연한 후 심한 연하곤란 및 연하통을 주소로 본원 응급실에 내원하였으며 당시 하경부에 팽창과 심한 피하기종을 볼 수 있었다. 식도천공을 의심하여 식도경검사를 시행한 결과 이물은 발견하지 못했으나 경부 식도 우측벽에 약 4cm가량의 식도 종천공을 확인할 수 있었고 다량의 음식물 찌꺼기를 볼 수 있었다. 음식물 찌꺼기를 제거한 후 금식과 다량의 항생제를 투여하였으나 입원 제 3일에 흉곽통이 있었으며 흥부 X선상상부 종격동 음영의 확장을 볼 수 있었다. 입원 제 4일에는 호흡곤란이 있어 기관절개술을 시행하였으며 피하기종도 감소되었다. 입원 제15일에 시행한 식도경검사에서 경부 식도 우측벽의 천공부위에서 다량의 농이 매출되어 우측하경부의 전면에 배농관을 삽입하였다. 술후농의 양은 감소되었으나 약 15일간 농의 배출은 계속되었고 전신상태가 호전되었으나 환자의 경제적 사정으로 입원 제38일에 퇴원하였다. 그 후 항생제를 투여하며 통원가료후 완전히 회복되었다.

This study was performed to investigate the toxicity of DA-125 in beagle dogs, an anthracycline antitumor antibiotic. The dogs were administered DA-125 i.v. at 0.0023, 0.0375, 0.15 and 0.6 mg/kg/day, 6 days/week for 26 weeks. At 0.6 mg/kg, all male and female dogs were either sacrificed moribundly or dead during the 26-week treatment. The dogs revealed inactivity, salivation, dark bloody discharge, swelling of the subcutaneous injection site, abscess, and ulceration in the abdominal wall and legs. At 0.15 mg/kg, anorexia, salivation, and swelling of the injection site were observed. The food consumption was decreased with a statistical significance at 6 and 12 weeks treatment in males of 7.6 mg/kg. At 0.0375, 0.15 and 0.6 mg/kg, body weights were decreased significantly in a dose-related fashion after 17 weeks treatment. Total white blood cell counts for male dogs at 0.6 mg/kg were lower than those of control dogs after 13 weeks treatment, which appeared mainly due to decreased neutrophils. At 0.15 mg/kg, testicular atrophy was found in all males by gross pathology and the testicular weights were significantly decreased when compared to those of control males. Microscopically, the testis showed moderate atrophy of the seminiferous tubules and marked decrease in number of spermatozoa in the epididymal tubules. At 0.6 mg/kg, petechia or echymotic hemorrhage was observed in gastrointestinal tract, heart, lungs, and other organs at the necropsy, Marked atrophy of thymus were observed in both males and females. In addition, severe testicular atrophy was noted in all males. Microscopically, gastrointestinal tract showed hemorrhage, epithelial denudation, hypermucus secretion, and atrophy of intestinal villi. Seminiferous tubules of the atrophic testis were lined with Sertoli cells only and devoid of germ cells. Severe oligospermia or aspermia was present in the epididymal tubules. Bone marrow showed marked depletion of hemopoietic cells. In addition, marked atrophy was found in the lymphoid tissue of gastrointestinal tract, various Iymph nodes, and thymus. Injection sites showed marked inflammatory response with necrosis, necrotizing vasculitis, thrombus formation, and ulceration in the skin. According to the present results, no observed effect level appeared to be 0.0375 mg/kg. At 0.15 mg/kg, testis was a target organ, while at 0.6 mg/kg hemopoietic tissue, gastrointestinal tract, and testis were considered to be target organs. At 0.6 mg/kg the test compound seems to inflict a damage on the blood vessels causing hemorrhage in the various organs and tissues.

Tetanus is an acute, often fatal, and infectious disease of all species of domestic animals caused by the neurotoxin of Clostridium tetani (C. tetani). This disease is usually known to develop after microbial contamination in the deep or penetrating wound sites. In February 2017, a farmer who was raising 76 cows injected foot and mouth disease vaccine to three or more cows with one syringe. Their clinical symptoms were observed 2 to 16 days after the vaccination. The initial symptoms were stiffness, rigidity of the neck and limbs, pricked ears, and prolapse of the third eyelid. Subsequently, there was recumbency with extension of the limbs, convulsions and opistotonus and the affected 20 cows were all died. Two dead cows were submitted to Animal and Plant Quarantine Agency for disease diagnosis. At necropsy, a focal edematous abscess of 15 to 20 cm in diameter was grossly observed in the subcutaneous and intramuscular tissue of scapular region and filled with a large amount of greenish pus. The feed was full in oral cavity and slightly observed in the trachea and lobes of lung. Histopathologically, focal granulomatous nodules with eosinophilic materials in the tissue were observed. In the lung, aspiration pneumonia and gram (+) bacteria were seen. The C. tetani was isolated in samples anaerobically cultured using reinforced clostridial medium and identified by PCR. To our knowledge, no previous outbreak of tetanus in cattle has affected such a high number of animals; neither has it been associated with misuse of the same syringe and needle to administer multiple individuals.

질편모충의 배양배지인 Diamond의 TPS-1 배지에서 3년간 배양한 질편모충 KT9 국내 분리주를 TYM 배지로 옮겨 1년간 배양하고 양쪽 배지에서 자란 질편모충의 증식, 병원성, 영양형의 크기, 단백질 성상 등을 비교하였다. 각 배지 원충의 generation time은 TYM 배지의 원충은 4.5시간이었고 TPS-1 배지의 원충은 7.1시간으로 TYM 배지에서 더 빨리 자랐다. TYM 배지에서 자란 원충의 크기가 TPS-1 배지에서의 영양형에 비해 유의하게 작았다. TYM 배지에서 배양한 원충은 10마리 마우스 중 9마리에서 피하 농양을 형성한 반면 TPS-1 배지에서 배양한 원충은 2마리에서 피하 농양을 형성하였고, 농양의 크기도 작았다. SDS-PAGE에서 10개의 단백분획이 공통적으로 관찰되었으며 TYM 배지의 원충에서는 136 kDa, 116 Da 및 40 kDa의 분획이, TPS-1 배지의 원충에서는 100 kDa 분획이 특징적으로 관찰되었다. Gelatin SDS-PAGE에서는 200 kDa과 70 kDa 사이에 10개의 gelatin 분획이 공통적으로 관찰되었으며, TYM 배지에서 배양한 원충이 TPS-1 배지에서 배양한 원충에 비해 gelatin을 많이 분해하였다. Bz-Pro-Phe-Arg-Nan를 기질로 사용하여 단백질분해효소활성을 측정하였는데 TYM 배지에서 배양한 원충의 단백질분해효소활성은 TPS-1 배지에서 배양한 원충에 비해 유의하게 높았다. 이 연구결과 질편모충의 배양에서 TPS-1 배지를 TYM 배지로 전환하였을 때 원충의 크기가 커졌고 단백질분해효소 활성이 증가하며 독력 (병원성)이 증가됨이 관찰되었다.
