The distribution of Vibrio parahaemolyticus serotypes in Kenyan seafish, shellfish, marine water and sediment
(1982)
Vibrio parahaemolyticus was recovered from 74 of 912 marine samples screened for the organism. Of 74 isolates of V. parahaemolyticus obtained from marine fish, crustacean shellfish (prawns, lobster, crabs), and molluscan ...

Pathogenesis of Bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) infections: Interactions of the virus with peripheral bovine blood cellular components
(1979)
Bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) is believed to reach the placenta via the hematogenous route as the virus has been recovered from the blood buffy coat cells of experimentally infected cattle. However, the manner in which the ...
The comparative antigenic characterization of Newcastle disease virus strains isolated in Kenya and Kazakhstan
(2001-01)
Twenty six Newcastle disease viruses — 12 reference strains and 14 strains isolated in Kenya and Kazakhstan — were characterized by means of a large panel of 38 monoclonal antibodies (MAB) directed against all the three ...
Isolation, Cultivation and Characterization of a Poxvirus from some Horses in Kenya
(1974-05)
Two strains of pox virus isolated from naturally infected horses were adapted to the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of developing chick embryos and to tissue cultures of chicken fibroblasts and bovine calf kidney, bovine ...
Time-course investigation of infection with a low virulent Pasteurella multocida strain in normal and immune-suppressed 12-week-old free-range chickens
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-11)
Twelve-week-old indigenous chickens, either immune-suppressed using dexamethasone (IS) or non-immunesuppressed (NIS), were challenged with a low virulent strain, Pasteurella multocida strain NCTC 10322T, and developed ...
Effect of Immunosuppression on Newcastle Disease Virus Persistence in Ducks with Different Immune Status
(2012)
This study was carried out to verify the possibility that ducks are sources of Newcastle disease (ND) virus infection for chickens in mixed flocks. Immunosuppressed (IS) and non immunosuppressed (NIS) birds, at three ...
A experimental solanum incanum l. Poisoning in goats
(2010)
A study was carried out to determine the toxicity of unripe fruits of S. incanum L in goats. Dried unripe fruits of S. incanum L, were orally fed to goats at a dose rate of 0 (group1), 0.75 (group 2), 1.5 (group 3) and ...
Viral nucleoprotein localization and lesions of Newcastle disease in tissues of indigenous ducks
(2011-08)
Localization of Newcastle disease viral nucleoprotein and pathological lesions was valuated in tissues of 55 indigenous ducks (45 experimentally infected and 10 sentinel
ones). In addition, ten Newcastle disease infected ...
Prevalence of haemoparasites infection in indigenous chicken in Eastern Province of Kenya
(2011)
Indigenous chickens constitute over 81% of poultry in Kenya and produce 71% of eggs and poultry
meat. Ecto- and haemoparasites limit production of these birds in the rural areas. However, there exists
scanty information ...
