Since the beginning of the year , Dr. Hwang- has been performing post-mortem examinations on ducks brought to the laboratory by farmers within a 20 mile radius. Infected ducks have been isolated at the laboratory and on an ex- perimental farm. Virus hepatitis , shown b y cur- rent i psearch to be unrelated to hepatitis infections that have plagued the human population , made its first appearance on Long Island duck farms in 1952. Since then , it has mushroomed in Suf- folk County and spread to duck fa«rm.s in other sections of the country. Although the intense competi- tiveness of the count y ' s duck growers has prevented Dr. Hwang from deriving an accurate farm- bv-farm figure on the number of birds killed by the disease in Suf folk during recent months , l.e guesses that as high as 50 nor cent of a flock can be lost during an epidemic. The infection , which Dr. Hwang believes is transmitted h y water , leed or insects , most often makes its initial appearance among new- ly hatched ducklings. It is impera- tive that growers immediatel y ad- vise the research co-op when birds begin to show signs of illness. Procrastination can be highl y ex- pensive to growers , warns Dr. Hwang. Serum has been extracted from ducks at packing p lants which has a demonstrated retarding effect on the spread of the disease and can be made available free of charge to growers b y th\ lab. Dr. Hwang is curiently at work on a non-pathogenic inoculation for immunizing ducklings . Chicken embryos and duck embryo li\er cell» are being examined and used as cultures. Controlled expei i- ments have show n that inoculated moth'-r ducks tend to produce IC - lathely immune ducklings . Dr. Hwang came to this coun- try in l!)r>2 fi om Fu Kien Prov- ince in China to stud y at the Uni versit y of Connecticut under a joint grant from the Unite d States and Nationalist Chinese govern- ments. The experiments at the co-op laboratory are being financed by Cornell University and the Long Island duck industry . pmsmss^Mi^^ | - COINS - I BOUGHT AND SOLD | Coin Books 3 for $1.00 | 0 1938-S JEFFERSON NICKELS—Ex.
