Abstract

Since 1974, tetracycline resistance in salmonellae of human and porcine origin has decreased nation-wide in The Netherlands. This decrease has coincided with the ban on incorporation of tetracycline in animal feeds.

Rumen microbiology, biotechnology and ruminant nutrition: the application of research findings to a complex microbial ecosystem.

Research on rumen microorganisms has contributed greatly to our understanding of anaerobic microbial ecosystems, and has also influenced feeding practices and nutritional modelling with ruminants. However, it can be argued that rumen microbiology has not yet fulfilled its true potential. Growth-promoting ionophores, antibiotics and microbial feed additives were introduced before their microbiological effects had been determined. A more pro-active role for the microbiologist was predicted with the advent of recombinant DNA technology. Whether ventures in molecular biology can be applied successfully to benefit nutrition and health is likely to depend on whether means can be found for maintaining new strains in vivo.

A double-blind comparison of olive oil and a combination of evening primrose oil and fish oil in the management of canine atopy.

A randomised double-blind parallel study lasting eight weeks was used to assess the effects of olive oil in a group of atopic dogs whose clinical signs were well controlled by dietary supplementation with a combination of evening primrose oil and fish oil. Nine of the 11 dogs which continued to receive this combination were considered unchanged at the conclusion of the study, whereas eight of the 10 dogs switched to olive oil had deteriorated. The mean plasma concentration of dihomogammalinolenic acid, a precursor of potentially antiinflammatory mediators, was significantly reduced (P < 0.05) in the olive oil-treated group at the end of the study. There were no significant differences between the mean plasma linoleic, eicosapentaenoic and arachidonic acid concentrations in the two groups. These findings suggest that olive oil is not an effective therapeutic agent in the control of canine atopy.
