Panasenko O. Esherihiosis of quails (biological properties, diagnostic, prophylaxis)

The work has studied escherichosis of quails and aspects of prophylaxis of this disease. The aim of the researches was studying of the expansion and clinical course of escherichosis of quails on the farms, studying of biological characteristics of agent, giving the estimation for the factors causing the disease, in particular relation of escherichias in the air of farms to appearing of the disease and improvement of diagnosis and prophylaxis of escherichosis of quails using bacteriological, serum, clinical, pathologoanatomic, epizoothologic, biochemical and statistic methods of the research.The contaminaton of air on poultry-yards with bacteria, their influence on poultry and relation of microflora indications with appearing of escherichosis has been determined.Scientific newness is in detrmining the rate of quail escherichias spreading on the farms of Sumy, Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Poltava oblasts of Ukraine.The biological charactteristics of escherichias taken from the quails has been described.On basis of antibiotcogramms of different serovariants of escherichias agent the estimation of effectiveness of different medicatoins has been given. The results of the research were described in methodic recommendations on escherichosis of quails (diagnosis, prophylaxis and treating). The schemes of prophylaxis for quails escherichosis using the antibacterial medicatoins were suggested.
