14日龄健康、非免疫罗曼蛋公鸡240羽,随机均分为8组,用鸡新城疫疫苗首次免疫和二次免疫前3 d、当日及后3 d,试验组分别灌胃0.5 m L高、低剂量黄芪多糖(ASP)、淫羊藿多糖(EPP)和板蓝根多糖(IRPS)溶液,空白对照组和免疫对照组灌胃等量生理盐水。各组分别于首免后连续4周随机取鸡10羽称量体质量、测定抗体效价和T淋巴细胞增殖变化。结果表明,3种中药多糖均可促进鸡体质量增加,提高新城疫HI抗体效价,促进外周血T淋巴细胞增殖,其中低剂量的IRPS效果最好。
240 14-day-old healthy and non-immune Roman chicken were randomly divided into 8 groups, including blank control group (BC group), immune control group (IC group), and immunity groups of each Chinese medicine. On the day of the first immunity, 3 d before the second immunity, the day of the second immunity and 3 d after the second immunity, high-dose concentration and low-dose concen- tration of Astragalus polysaccharide (ASP), Epimedium polysaccharide (EPP) and Isatis roots polysaccharide (IRPS) were used for the immunity groups of each Chi- nese medicine using the gavage, and 0.5 ml for each chick, and the equivalent normal saline was used for the blank control group and vaccine control group. On the 7^th, 14^th, 21^st and 28^th day after the first immunity, 10 chicken of each group were randomly got and weighed, and the antibody titer and the changes of the pro- liferation of T lymphocyte were measured. The results showed that 3 kinds of Chi- nese medicine polysaccharides all can increase the weight of chicken, improve HI antibody titer of Newcastle disease, and promote the proliferation of peripheral T lymphocyte, in which the effect of IRPS at low dosage is the best.
试验从吉林省通化某地发病死亡鸭子病料中分离到1株具有血凝性的病毒,通过血凝试验、血凝抑制试验、血清中和试验及融合蛋白(F)基因的扩增测序,初步鉴定为新城疫病毒,命名为TH-1株。该病毒鸡胚平均死亡时间(MDT)、1日龄雏鸡脑内接种致病指数(ICPI)及6周龄鸡静脉接种致病指数(IVPI)分别为53.4h、1.85和2.575,表明该新城疫病毒为强毒。F蛋白多肽裂解位点为112-RRQKRF-117,符合新城疫强毒株裂解位点氨基酸序列,进一步证明该毒株为新城疫强毒株。F基因核苷酸及氨基酸同源性比对发现,TH-1株与中国野鸭源新城疫病毒分离株mallard China HLJ株的同源性最高,核苷酸同源性达到了99.3%,同为新城疫基因Ⅶ型毒株,与目前新城疫流行的主要基因型Ⅶ型相一致,为鸭源新城疫的有效防制提供了理论基础。
