A number of viral agents are recognized as and suspected of causing the clinical condition “gastroenteritis.” In our attempts to establish an animal model for studies of this entity, we have been examining the nonhuman primate to ascertain what viruses may be found in the intestinal tract of “normal” animals as well as animals with diarrhea. Several virus types including coronavirus, adenovirus, herpesvirus, and picornavirus (Table I) were detected in our colony; however, rotavirus, astrovirus, and calicivirus have not yet been observed. Fecal specimens were prepared for electron microscopy by procedures reported previously.

ABSTRACT Pekin ducks grow faster and show a faster and higher thyroidal 131I uptake than Muscovy ducks. Treatment with a total of 15 mg stilboestrol during the first 4 weeks had no effect on growth, thyroid weight or thyroidal 131I uptake in male or female Pekin ducklings. In male Muscovy ducklings the same treatment caused a marked inhibition of growth, a decrease in thyroid weight and a lowered thyroidal 131I uptake. Thyroxine, administered simultaneously in physiological doses, did not prevent inhibition of growth. It is therefore concluded that this inhibition is not due to the lowered thyroid function.
