摘要

一小規模之飼料實驗雞場，飼養土雞幼雛約500隻，於1996年送至中興大學獸醫學系，出生第2天的部分幼雛呈現精神抑鬱、羽毛蓬鬆、食欲不振、嗜眠、聚集於熱源處，其中有些病雞於肛門周圍黏著白色下痢便，陸續有雞隻死亡，於3日齡進行解剖，經病理學及細菌學之檢查結果，診斷為副傷寒感染症（Paratyphoid infection），病原是甲種副傷寒桿菌（Salmonella paratyphi A），根據藥物感受性試驗之結果，使用0.03%濃度之Flumequine飲水投藥，治療5天後，病情已獲得控制。甲種副傷寒桿菌是人畜共同的感染病原，公共衛生上應加以重視的疾病之一。

Seven diseased chicks from a broiler flock of 500 Taiwanese native chicks raised in a small experimental farm, was submitted for diagnosis to the diagnostic laboratory of National Chung Hsing University in 1996. The diseased chicks, two days-old, showed clinical manifestation of deep depression, poor feathering, emaciation, and sleepy. Additionally, they huddled under the heat source, and died thereafter with whitish chalk droppings on the vents. Based on the pathological and microbiological examinations, the died chicks at 3 day-old was diagnosed as Paratyphoid infection of Salmonella paratyphi A. By the results of drug sensitive tests, the condition of chicken flock was improved after administrating the drug of Flumequine via drinking water for 5 days, in the concentration of 0.03%. Salmonella paratyphi infection is a zoonotic disease, and can not be ignored in the public health.
