“…Affected birds frequently have matted, damp feathers on the back between the wings. Bullis et al (1950) observed that the highest incidence of keratoconjunctivitis occurred where litter was less satisfactory and ammonia concentrations highest. They also observed the condition typically in young birds.…”

“…The typical symptoms of keratoconjunctivitis include huddling of birds in a group, eye rubbing with the wings, the eyes becoming closed and sensitive to light (Bullis et a[., 1950). Affected birds frequently have matted, damp feathers on the back between the wings.…”

Ten Hereford bulls housed indoors in individual tie stalls were used to explore the relationships atmospheric ammonia exposure and microclimate on beef cattle hematochemical, and to know effect and to prediction equations the atmospheric ammonia exposure and microclimate with various hematochemical parameters. This study was conducted in Animal Station, Department of Agricultural Biotechnology, Seoul National University (SNU), Seoul, South Korea, for 40 days during summer. Results of this study indicated that there were negative correlation between ammonia with temperature and positive correlation between ammonia with humidity. There were significantly negative effect of ammonia on hematochemical, except neutrophyls and ratio of neutrophyls to lymphocytes. Simultaneous effect between ammonia, temperature and humidity, mainly effected on glucose, hexokinase, lymphocytes, neutrophyls, N:L Ratio, and lactate. Simultaneous effect between ammonia, temperature and humidity proved to be a good indicator for predicting the profile of glucose, hexokinase, lymphocytes, neutrophyls, N:L Ratio in the blood.

“…Research on air pollution from animal production was reported as early as in 1950 (Bullis and Snoeyenbos, 1950;Faddoul and Ringrose, 1950). Efforts to mitigate air pollution started at about the same time (Cotterill and Winter, 1953) and continued into the 1960s (Seltzer et al, 1969) and beyond.…”
