part-chytrid disease control (diagnosis and treatment)

Everyone of both bulletin fan of entire country, konnichiha!

This time, New Year early it became agitation, dividing coping method of the “frog pot mold symptom” into 2 times, it will introduce.

However, this time, as for the method of introducing with just the information which can be collected to the last on and the like the net, there are separately new ones, it is not the case that it is the method of being especially effective.
Simply, still there to be misunderstanding, information is scattered, clearly most enlightenment the importance so to in the general raising person who does not go “the maniac” be able to do understanding or executing, because it seems that when it does the improbable writing is many, here it was easy to know, “it collected and” the mark with feeling tried making the article.
Especially, it seems that becomes the result where in the same time news of bird influenza occurrence flows in Miyazaki prefecture, fans the insecurity of the general people.

This time when it is the first volume tried collecting “diagnosis and remedy”.

About the pot mold as the living thing

First in order to do the measure of the pot mold, thing of the pot mold will be known.
The living thing which is called the pot mold in biology is the companion of the fungus which is called the pot mold eye, but those where it becomes cause of the pot mold symptom of the latest frog are the type, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis.
life of this chytrid (life cycle) is very simple.

the study of biological basis of the familiar little here.
life cycle and is representing the flow of the round of growth and reproduction of organisms.
for example, if we humans are very simple.
individual (human) gamete (sperm and eggs) fertilization individual (human) sperm and eggs · · · ·
and, individual (human) and gamete (sperm and eggs) is a repeat of the.

when this fern plant comes out of high school in the organism, for example
sporophyte (so-called state of the fern) spore gametophyte (body anterior lobe) gamete (sperm and egg) sporophyte · · ·
so, are slightly more complex. that is spore to make, sperm and eggs is not to make it to the individual it is an independent.

although it is not appropriate even if less, if this analogy to human, we humans have their own separate the genital, become independent creatures that genital (kimoi. . . ) make sperm and eggs, fertilize them at all in another place somewhere, and be human from a fertilized egg that we, their reproductive organs is also that human. . . o~e, was feeling bad if you’ve written.

in, this is going back to chytrid, its life cycle zoospore come out a little hard to tell because the word. is basically a simple life cycle similar to us humans but.
that is
sporophyte (zoosporangia) zoospore (spore) sporophyte (zoosporangia) · · ·
and, spores that can only organ in the body for making called zoospores in zoosporangia not say (called chytrid in the shape of the pot so that this is) is a repeat of the child migration and.
zoospore and is spores with flagella for movement is that of.
if you compare, son goku in saiyuki has come out, many copies of themselves and able to breathe on their own tear the hair, will use the technique called, it is similar to the.

anyway, chytrid is moved underwater swimming in the zoospore, the parasite in the epidermis of the frog. zoospores were parasitic, the zoosporangia grown sporophyte there is, in the epidermis of the frog at this time keratin the source of a nutrient.
ugachi zoospore is a hole in the skin of a frog when the parasitic, create a zoosporangia shaped like a vase in the. is a significant impact on the life activity of frog in order to inhibit the function of frog have been made in the skin at this time.

in general,100infected by parasitic migration of about one child, i get sick, since the move dendrobatidis swim in the water infection by air is not you can think.

zoospore is chlorine for disinfection (chlorine) in tap water that contains3week, in purified water does not contain anything4that can survive weeks has been found. it is believed water or rearing water of ponds and lakes and also live longer.
somewhat like the low temperature, a temperature suitable for growth17－25 in, 23 this is the most suitable temperature. in the experiment are susceptible to high temperature28 growth will stop in, 30 is the total killed in.

in, finally following diagnosis and treatment is about.

diagnosis of chytrid

basically, a look at the frog that chytrid what is a cause, determine whether it otherwise would be very difficult.
as a simple diagnostic test
nazeru gently with your fingers on the back-frog eyes not crackling (healthy frog eyes are crackling)
-turn over the frog remains turned over (healthy frog will try to go back to the original)
gently hold the mouth of the frog- (pinch) no reply (healthy frog tries to escape using the forefoot)
there is that it.

simply, i’ll is not a specific symptom in the disease chytrid what this.
were both healthy bulletin, not just the frog and reacts to, individual reactions are in poor health will not.
this is so akumademo frog (in general both bulletin) diagnosis of health it’s better to think. that is
after so much infected with the chytrid disease emergency, what is not different from usual state of the frog, let’s see whether there is a healthy or
is that.
try this test, if the frog in breeding as appropriate, is that they should consider a decent deal for suspected infection with chytrid.

frog chytrid disease are infected with, after infection2－5week (the case of acute3－4days) the death of the.
and therefore, this for two months, this means that last year’s11between the time per month from now, new individuals (amphibian, ornamental fish, waterweed, gravel, wed, such as those that involve water tank used) giving up or got from other breeders to buy or, is people like have been collected from the field, the strange appearance of the frog in recent breeding, after the diagnostic tests seemed yaba, the possibility of infection with chytrid are.

state of the frog is odd idea if there is no such, who wants it must feel like anxiety unnecessarily will not.
if you’re still kept in unheated during this period, such as the frog of the temperate zone of japan in particular frog, it would have been in hibernation, because would not be very active in the frog is the time from what has been cold and dry.

anyway, or not is a different state of the frog and always well to observe from the usual, let’s observe the.
frog, creatures from rich facial expressions and expressive power, sign of the action should be easy to understand.

incidentally, also in the range visible to the naked eye, specially characteristic change is not seen as.
can be rash, for example, redden, swell, lump can be, is such as, is not specific to this fungus also.
the chytrid mold although with a name and, because is not a creature to crawl like hyphae, those of filamentous or flocculent or adhering to the surface of the skin so-called, nor does it like that. as you can see it if such, it is another infection it is also.

treatment of chytrid

in the first place, how to be treated yourself do not think would be good. since diagnosis is difficult even as the aforementioned. if you think funny to consult a veterinary hospital is. but, knowing the art of possible treatments and still is not a loss.

however to say that the treatment, it is like a frog opponent has made little progress with respect to information is also far from chytrid disease, when symptoms appeared generally smaller because the body is already. . . considered sufficiently well that.
so, cured in a way that presented here to ensure, please do not think and is. suppose it, it is also as i got a teacher of medical care to a veterinarian at the veterinary hospital.

– benzalkonium chloride drug in the bath
benzalkonium chloride is marketed as a disinfectant invert soap is. of this1mg/Lthat is1in l1mgsoak the frog in aqueous solution are dissolved to a concentration.
for example here it has been introduced in the10%is that because, 100mlin10gis not contained. suppose that this solution1assuming that l, therein10g×10=100gwill be contained.
1mgis1000minutes of1gso, at this1in l1000×100g=10ten thousandgcontains. i use in the treatment of frog1in l1mgso, in this10will become ten thousand times the concentration. and therefore, this solution was10millionths of1will be diluted to.

in the home1mlsince it is difficult to take, let’s use a measuring spoon for cooking.
small measuring spoon is something most of5mlso, this10the ten thousand-fold diluted.
in one shot10ten thousand times can not be, first wed500ml (the exact495ml use a plastic bottle) dissolve. in this100times. in, for this small measuring spoon in the same way, one more time500mldissolve in water. in this100×100=1ten thousand times. this further10the fold diluted. in a small measuring spoon so severe, large measuring spoon (15ml) take this to, cup (normally180ml) of water8minute eye (145mlabout) calculation should be the concentration of the target and to.
let’s recap.

by heat-treatment
b. dendrobatidis is vulnerable to heat, method is to the treatment and breeding in the state was kept to a high temperature the infected frog. please note that success in the frog is an example of australian arboreal akumademo.
37 in8and left to stand for hours or more. do this two days in a row.

other methods, i think it is unreasonable to the general public, here is beyond the scope of.

on the next page, teachers of a veterinarian familiar with the disease chytrid veterinarians core chytrid disease you can see a list of.

veterinarians core system

as i mentioned earlier, half-hearted treatment or therapy or a layman i shorten the life of the frog to the opposite, may not lead to the spread of chytrid, consultation with a veterinarian or animal hospital is the first.

in the event of this, from the special nature and importance of, kuwashika~tsu especially chytrid disease or to, has been placed on the core teachers throughout the country as a veterinarian or veterinarians have the most up-to-date information. have you started the teacher of the core veterinarian near you you could take a look at the query. ( WWFfor the general public, etc. Q&A in inquiries should be directed there is a, because it is so many teachers are not open to the public the e-mail address, please contact by telephone, etc.)
it has also to be able to consult a veterinarian to teachers of teachers of core from a veterinarian in general also, even if no-show teachers of core veterinarian near you, we recommend that you try to contact the animal hospital near you.
