Determination of the frequency of the botulism disease on the free-grazing ducks in the Mekong Delta - Determination of the prevalence of Clostridium botulinum and the type of botulin toxin on the free-grazing ducks - Determination of the prevalence of C botulinum in the grazing environment - Determination of the pathogenicity of isolated C botulinum strains originated in the Mekong Delta 1.3 The new scientific distributions - Scientific pieces of evidence firstly about the prevalence of the botulism disease on the free-grazing ducks in the Mekong Delta - Determination of botulin type in the infected ducks in the Mekong Delta - Determination of botulin types of C botulinum in the infected ducks in the Mekong Delta - Application of the mouse bioassay to indicate the botulin infection due to Clostridium botulinum in ducks in Vietnam 1.4 The scientific meaning of this study It is the first study that systematic research about the botulism disease on the free-grazing ducks in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam From those results, a scientific process can be formed for diagnosing this disease as well as preventing and treatments of the botulism disease on the free-grazing ducks in the Mekong Delta and Vietnam Chapter RESEARCH CONTENTS AND METHODS 3.1 The research materials 3.1.1 The research period and places: This study was carried out from October 2013 to October 2018 3.1.2 Research places 3.1.2.1 Sample collected places Samples were collected in An Giang, Can Tho, Hau Giang, and Kien Giang province of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam 3.1.2.2 Samples analysis and the experiment on mice The isolation, identification and toxin examination of C botulinum were done at the Specialized Veterinary laboratory 3, Department of Veterinary Medicine, College of Agriculture, Can Tho University 3.1.2.3 The field-experiment The toxin test of C botulinum on laying ducks were done at Vemedim Corporation Company, Thoi Thanh ward, Thoi Lai District, Can Tho city 3.2 The research equipments Equipments and requirements -
