The inoculated routes were those of intra-muscular, -cardiac, -peritoneal and per oral. The results obtained are summarized as follows : 1) Almost all chickens, regardless of their routes of Tp inoculation, showed parasitemia from 2 to 7 days after inoculation. The parasitemia was usually persisted for about 7 days. The fact indicated that Tp is capable to infect chickens per orally. 2) The infected chickens showed no symptoms and kept inapparent infections throughout the experimental periods. However, in a few cases, severe symptoms such as fever reactions and nervous impediments were observed and the chickens died from Tp infection. In such cases, the Tp were detectable directly in stained smear of organs. 3) Antibody titers were usually low such as 1 : 8 or less. The first appearance of antibodies were about 1 week after infection in intra-cardiac injection groups, 2 weeks in intra-peritoneal, and 3 weeks in intra-muscular, respectively. And usually no antibody formation was observed in the groups inoculated per orally. There seemed to exist some correlations between antibody formation and routes of inoculation. 4) Some of chickens were reinoculated with considerable large doses of Tp. Though the results obtained were somewhat different in each case, the chickens generally showed strong resistant to reinoculation regardless of their low antibody titers. However, in 2 cases, severe symptoms were occurred within 1 week. 5) The chickens showed a tendency to clear the parasite from their infected tissues during 1-2 months after inoculation, however, in a few cases, the parasites were proven to persist for a relatively long period without causing the appearance of any symptoms. 6) In autopsy findings, swelling of liver and spleen, and also small white spotted foci of the disease on the surface of liver were mainly observed. But in general, no significant changes were detected in other organs. 7) The Tp were demonstrated in 3 out of 12 eggs laid by such inapparent infected, 2 hens who firstly started to lay eggs after inoculation experiments. The author suggested a possibility that the infected chickens, flesh and eggs may serve as one of sources of toxoplasmic infection for humans and animals., 紀要論文}, pages = {224--238}, title = {II. 70-120 日令鶏の感染態度(鶏の実験的トキソプラズマ症に関する研究)(畜産学科)}, year = {1971} }
