Clostridium perfringens and Clostridioides difficile cause significant morbidity and mortality in foals. Antemortem diagnosis of C. perfringens infection has been complicated by a paucity of tests available for toxin detection. Fecal PCR panels have assays for a variety of C. perfringens toxin gene sequences as well as for several other foal gastrointestinal pathogens. We evaluated results of a comprehensive fecal diarrhea PCR panel in 28 foals that had been presented to a referral hospital because of diarrhea. Sixteen (57%) foals were positive for C. perfringens and/or C. difficile toxin gene sequences on fecal PCR, including 3 foals positive for NetF toxin. These foals were younger ( p = 0.0029) and had higher hematocrits ( p = 0.0087), hemoglobin ( p = 0.0067), and red blood cell concentrations ( p = 0.028) than foals with diarrhea that tested negative for clostridial toxins. The foals had lower total protein concentrations ( p = 0.045) and were more likely to have band neutrophils on a CBC ( p = 0.013; OR: 16.2). All 3 foals with NetF toxin gene sequences detected in feces survived to discharge, indicating that diarrhea caused by NetF toxigenic C. perfringens isolates is not uniformly fatal.

The action of a 60-Hz, 5 kV/m electric field on erythrocyte parameters in mice was determined. No effects attributable to the magnitude of the field were found, but a transition either from or to an environment containing the field caused decreased red blood cell concentrations and decreased hematocrits. The failure of others to observe effects on erythrocyte parameters following exposure to low-frequency electric fields may have been due to an inappropriate choice of duration of exposure.

SUMMARYWool growth rates were estimated in Merino ewes differing in their red blood cell concentrations of reduced glutathione ([GSHRBC]). Over a 42-day wool growth period, sheep with low [GSHRBC] maintained significantly higher rates of wool growth. Red blood cell concentrations of K+, ([K+RBC]), [GSHRBC] and estimated gene frequencies for the low [GSHRBC] and high [K+RBC] genes were determined in flocks of Merino ewes bred for high or low clean fleece weight. The high fleece weight flock had a significantly lower [GSHRBC] and higher gene frequency for the low [GSHRBC] allele than the low fleece weight flock. The high fleece weight flock also had a significantly higher [K+RBC] and a higher gene frequency for the high [K+RBC] allele than did the low fleece weight flock.
