Bacteriophages in Poultry

Research

Methodology

 

1. Bacterioscophy

2. Test on movement on 0,3 % semi-liquid agar by punching

3. Test of pathogens on 5% defibrinated blood mixed agar

4. Biochemical testing

5. Serodiagnostics with E-coli polyvalent strain O-H antigen

6. Testing of sensitivity on the preparations of bacteriophages by spot-test method

 

Research

 

We have taken from Patardzleuli farm: fecal wastes, pathogenic organs, heart, liver, bladder and

rectum of 6 day old dead chickens. (See table-1). We took samples of water and food.( See table 2  (See table 3)

and Intesti bacteriophages

incubation

The materials were seeded in the sugar bullion. Other organs were cleaned with disinfecting liquid,

where had been done cuts and the samples were taken from inside layers. The research was provided by bacteriological, and serological methodology. For this purposes we have selected elective-selective soils, used differentiating- diagnostic endo soils, Plaskirev, Mac-Kinski, Ecterococcus and Pseudomonas agars. Has been studied bacterioscopy of separate isolates. We used Gram’s method of painting. Isolated isolate was seeded one semi-mixture 0,3% agare for the purpose of studying the movement by pricking. As well as we used hanging spot’s method for the identification of Salmonella gallenarum-pullorum.

Has been provided serodiagnostics of ABCD adsorbed serum Selected pathogenic strains was tested on sensitivity toward 12 antibiotics. Antibiotic resistant strains has undergone phage diagnostics by existing intesti and pio bacteriophages. The strains which were resistant to phages were seeded into the water of farm #1 where has been separated E-coli and Salmonella phages. Has been conducted several passages (for the purpose of increasing activity) The selected phages were bottled and given to farm #1 (please see table 1, 2)

We provide testing of influence of intestibacteriophages for preventive purposes on the organisms of

birds in farms (#1, #2, #3) Our team provided identification of keeping status of ntestibacteriophages

by means of pH tests in crop, stomach and intestines of birds.

The abovementioned testing was conducted due to optimal nature of phages action. We made parallel tests on intestibacteriophages. pH 5,0 (acid environment) and pH 8,0 practically make no influence on the activity of phages during 24 hours. During research the research of digestive system we identified, that pH in 10-28 day chickens fluctuates from 8 to 5,5, in stomach 3,0-4,0 and in intestines 6,0.

For the purpose of identification of the efficiency of bacteriophages preparations the 1 day chickens of Patardzleuli farm has been given preparations of intestibacteriophages during 5 days. The doze of

2,106 has been given to 1100 wings during five days (Experimental goup) The other 1 100 wings has

been treated by polyvitamine and antibiotics (Traditional theraphy group). In experimental group 99,8

% of chickens escaped. In traditional therapy group 99,1%.

The the daily growth in weight constituted: 4,5 grams ( experimental group) and 3,8 (traditional

theraphy group)

In Krtsanisi farm 1 day chickens has been given preparations of intestibacteriophages during 7 days.

The same doze has been given to 1100 wings during five days (Experimental goup) The other 1 400

wings has been treated by polyvitamine and antibiotics (Traditional therapy group). In experimental

and traditional therapy groups 99,8% chickens escaped.

The the daily growth in weight constituted: 4,8 grams ( experimental group) and 4 (traditional therapy group)
