Title : Identification And Control Of Marek's Disease In Nepal. Material Type: printed text Authors: MP Acharya, Author ; KB Bohara, Author ; UM.Singh, Author ; DK Chetri, Author Pagination: 223-227 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Marek's disease was a major threat to commercial poultry ofNepal during 1998 to 2002, particularly for egg
industries. This study was carried out during 200 I to 2003. In first phase Rispen's cell associated (a new and
effective) vaccine was identified and recommended for strategic application that gave satisfactory results
and Marek's disease incidence reduced to a minimum level. In second phase vaccine and vaccination
program at hatchery level was monitored. First vaccination in day old chicks with Rispen's vaccine and
second vaccination within seven days with HVT vaccine had showed very satisfactory results. During
monitoring, involvement of avian leucosis virus and MDV together was suspected in broiler breeder, which
was later confirmed (ALV -J) by Kimron Veterinary Institute Beta Degan, Israel by polymerase chain
reaction (PCR) test. In third phase again epidemiological survey was carried out to monitor the current
MDV events. The results of the survey revealed that where recommended strategy was followed and
practiced MD incidence rates were dropped.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=307 Identification And Control Of Marek's Disease In Nepal. [printed text] / MP Acharya, Author ; KB Bohara, Author ; UM.Singh, Author ; DK Chetri, Author . - [s.d.] . - 223-227 p.

Title : Preparation Of Salmonella Pullorum Colour Antigen And Seroprev Alence Of Pullorum Disease And Fowl Typhoid In Poultry Material Type: printed text Authors: SR Aryal, Author ; UM.Singh, Author ; DR Khanal, Author ; D Karki, Author ; MP Acharya, Author Pagination: 211-214 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Salmonella pullorum colored antigen was prepared using standard Salmonella pullorum freeze dried seed
bacteria (SP 17) brought from Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI), India. The agglutinability of
prepared antigen was compared with the antigen produced at IVRI with known positive and with positive
and negative serum from chicken. The agglutinability, of both antigens, was found to be similar. Using
antigen prepared at Animal Health Research Division, a total of 1280 birds of government and private
poultry of Kathmandu, Tarahara, Parwanipur and Chitawan of above 16 weeks of age. have been screened
for seroprevalence of pullorum disease and fowl typhoid in poultry. However, the specific type of the
disease was not identified as the serological testing does not differentiate the type of disease. Out of total
screened birds Ill (8.67%) were found positive. The entire positive cases Ill (8.67%) of birds were from

Title : Sero-Epidemiological Study On Bovine Tropical Theileriosis In Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: SP Shrestha, Author ; SN Deo, Author ; MP Acharya, Author ; K Shah, Author ; BL Kunwar, Author Pagination: 199-204 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: A total of 403 blood samples of cattle of different age group, breed and sex were collected from six districts
of eastern terai region namely Siraha, Udayapur, Saptari, Sunsari, Morang and Jhapa. Out of 403 cattle
included in this study, 80 ( 19.85%) cattle had detectable level of antibodies against T. annulata by SOELISA.
The highest seroprevalence (26.06%) was observed in Morang district followed by Siraha (21.43%),
Sunsari (19.67%), Jhapa (12.50%), Saptari (8.00%) and Udayapur (7.94%). Out of 134 male cattle, 28
(20.90%) and out of 269 females, 52 (19.36%) female cattle were serologically positive. The differences in
seroprevalance rates were insignificant between male and female cattle. The overall breed wise
seroprevalence ofT. annulata infection in crossbreds and indigenous cattle was recorded as 21.88 and 19.22
percent, respectively. The highes~ prevalence(~ 1.33) was recorded in >4 year's age group of cattle.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=300 Sero-Epidemiological Study On Bovine Tropical Theileriosis In Nepal [printed text] / SP Shrestha, Author ; SN Deo, Author ; MP Acharya, Author ; K Shah, Author ; BL Kunwar, Author . - [s.d.] . - 199-204 p.
