Nasal wash sampler special for detecting elephant tuberculosis

Abstract

The invention relates to a nasal wash sampler special for detecting elephant tuberculosis. The nasal wash sampler comprises a liquid inlet balloon and a liquid collection balloon, wherein the front end of the liquid inlet balloon is provided with a conical liquid inlet pipe; the liquid collection balloon consists of a balloon body, a liquid inlet communicating pipe and a nose protective hood; the front end of the balloon body is provided with a liquid collection pipe; the front end of the liquid collection pipe is provided with a liquid collection hole 1; one end of the liquid inlet communicating pipe extends out of the liquid collection pipe, and the other end of the liquid inlet communicating pipe runs through the liquid collection pipe and the balloon body and then is fixed to the bottom of the balloon body; a supporting rod is arranged between the liquid collection pipe and the liquid inlet communicating pipe; the nose protective hood is fixedly arranged on the liquid collection pipe; a liquid collection hole 2 is peripherally formed in the liquid collection pipe at the junction with the nose protective hood; the conical liquid inlet pipe of the liquid inlet balloon is inserted into the liquid inlet communicating pipe of the liquid collection balloon. According to the nasal wash sampler special for detecting the elephant tuberculosis, a special tool is provided for nasal drop collection in detection of the elephant tuberculosis, so that the error rate of an elephant tuberculosis detection result is reduced while the working efficiency is improved; in addition, the nasal wash sampler has the advantages of simple structure, low cost and convenience in operation and is suitable for popularization and application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an animal medical device, in particular to a nasal wash sampler used in the detection of elephant tuberculosis. Background technique [0002] Elephant tuberculosis is ancient and serious, and it is also regarded as one of the reasons for the extinction of mastodons. Asian elephants are more likely to be infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis than African elephants, and the incidence and carrier rate are also higher than African elephants. Tuberculosis is an emerging zoonotic disease, and drug-resistant and extremely drug-resistant strains are increasing. Elephant, as an animal in close contact with humans, has become a potential host pool of drug-sensitive and drug-resistant tuberculosis strains, which not only endangers human public safety, but also seriously affects the health of its own population. [0003] Chest x-rays are currently not available to detect TB in adult elephants, and the skin test for tuberculin is unrel...
