Prototype adenoviruses and their hemagglutinins of ROSEN'S 1 group II were studied by adsorption to rat and human red blood cells and by straight and cesium chloride density gradient ultracentrifugation. Density gradient experiments showed the presence of a hemagglutinin separable from the infectious virus particles which agglutinates both rat and human cells for virus types 9, 10, 13, 19, 26, and 27. In addition, types 10, 19, and 27 have a second hemagglutinin associated with the infective particles which agglutinates rat blood cells only. Type 9 (and possibly type 8) virus has a virusbound hemagglutinin which agglutinates both kinds of blood cells. The viruses types 15, 17, 22, and 24 with hemagglutinins for rat blood cells only have two hemagglutinins, one of them associated with the virus particles. The results with type 23 were variable. Straight ultracentrifugation experiments showed a surprisingly incomplete sedimentation of the infective particles for most of the virus types studied.Differences in the resistance of various hemagglutinins to trypsin and/or heating are demonstrated.

Group Ii

Some of the adenovirus type of Rosen’s group II exhibit weak agglutinating properties for monkey blood cells. The relation of these haemagglutinins to haemagglutinins for rat blood cells and to the infectious virus was studied by cross-absorption with blood cells and by density gradient centrifugation with caesium chloride. In the virus types studied (type 9, 13, and a wild strain of type 15) one part of the monkey cell haemagglutinin was associated with the virion and, for type 9 and 15, was inseparable from the virus-associated haemagglutinin for rat blood cells. In density gradient centrifugation a second haemagglutinin for monkey blood cells was found, separable from the virus particles and associated with the portion of higher buoyant density of the soluble haemagglutinin for rat blood cells. In type 13 and 23, haemagglutinins for monkey and rat blood cells can be separated by absorption with the heterologous blood cell species.Haemagglutinins for monkey cells are resistant to trypsin or trypsin plus subsequent heating to 55°C, in contrast to haemagglutinins for rat blood cells. Monkey cell haemagglutination is reversibly inhibited by the presence of CsCl.In haemagglutination-inhibition tests it was found that haemagglutination with monkey blood cells is more difficult to be inhibited by immune serum that haemagglutination with rat blood cells.

The present study was carried out to study the effects of varying dietary DL-methionine (0, 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, and 3.5 g/kg) levels on the productive and reproductive performance, egg quality and blood biochemical parameters of quail breeders. In total, 150 mature Japanese quails at eight weeks of age were randomly allotted to five groups of 30 for each group. Each group included five replicates, each of six quails (four females and two males). The results showed that egg number, egg weight and egg mass were higher (p < 0.05) with the addition of all DL-methionine levels than that of the control group. Quails from the control group had a lower feed intake (p < 0.001) and a worse feed conversion ratio (FCR) than those from the DL-methionine-treated groups. Supplementation of DL-methionine up to 2.5 g/kg in quail diets increased fertility and hatchability percentages. Birds fed DL-methionine at 1.5 g/kg had the best egg production indices, better FCR and the highest values of fertility and hatchability. Egg weight, yolk %, Haugh unit, egg shape index and unit surface shell weight (USSW) were increased and eggshell % was decreased in quail supplemented with DL-methionine levels compared with the control quail (p < 0.05). Dietary DL-methionine levels did not affect (p > 0.05) the hemoglobin (Hb), red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs) and packed cell volume (PCV) of quails. DL-methionine levels (0.5 and 2.5 g/kg) augmented lymphocytes and basophile (p < 0.05). Low DL-methionine levels (0.5 or 1.5 g/kg) improved liver enzymes and kidney functions. Dietary DL-methionine levels (except 3.5 g/kg) declined serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and decreased lipid profile parameters (except high-density lipoprotein—HDL). Supplementation of DL-methionine at 0.5 and 1.5 g/kg increased immunoglobulin (IgG, IgM and IgA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), catalase (CAT) and reduced glutathione (GSH) (p < 0.001) compared with the control. In conclusion, dietary supplementation of DL-methionine (1.5 g/kg) can enhance the reproductive performance and egg quality of quail breeders. DL-methionine use at levels of 0.5 or 1.5 g/kg improved the liver and kidney functions, lipid profile, immunity and antioxidant parameters of Japanese quail.
