  • Transmission experiments with East Coast fever 
    Theiler, Arnold, Sir, 1867-1936; Transvaal Department of Agriculture (Pretoria: Government Printng and Stationery Office, 1908)
    Conclusions: Rhipicephalus decoloratus and amblyomma hebraeum must not be considered as hosts of piroplasma parvum. Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, evertsi, capensis, simus, and, according to Lounsbury, also nitens, must be ...
  • Immunisation of mules with inadequate and adequate serum and virus, and the immunity obtained therefrom 
    Theiler, Arnold, Sir, 1867-1936; Transvaal Department of Agriculture (Pretoria: Government Printing and Stationery Office, 1908)
    Conclusions: l. The simultaneous injection of serum 0 and adequate virus resulted in typical horse-sickness reactions, and the immunity obtained therefrom prevented a reaction when the adequate virus is subsequently ...

    Theiler, Arnold, Sir, 1867-1936; Transvaal Department of Agriculture (Pretoria : Government Printing and Stationery Office, 1908)
    Conclusions: (1) The inoculation of animals with horse foal blood of 1st, 2nd and 3rd generations caused a mortality of 7 out of 186, or 4 per cent. (2) The inoculation of animals with horse foal blood of 4th, 5th, 6th, ...
  • Miscellaneous Investigations: gouw-ziekte; stiff sickness, or three days' sickness; internal parasites

    Theiler, Arnold, Sir, 1867-1936; Transvaal Department of Agriculture (Pretoria: Government Printing and Stationery Office, 1908)
    Conclusion:-The immunisation against a polyvalent virus with an adequate serum produces immunity which protects against any of its constituents. The immunity is strong enough to prevent a reaction in the majority of cases, ...
