Electrophysiological investigation of anthelmintic resistance
It is pointed out that two of the three major groups of anthelmintic act by opening membrane ion-channels. It is appropriate, therefore, to use electrophysiological methods to study the properties of the sites of action of these drugs and the changes in the properties of these receptor sites associated with resistance. This paper describes the use of

Integumentary fibrosarcoma in a free‐living swan (Cygnus olor): Medical and welfare considerations
Abstract A 10‐kg adult male mute swan (Cygnus olor) of unknown age was admitted for investigations of two large ventral masses overlying the keel bone, which were discharging purulent material. The masses measured 8.9 × 2.1 cm and 4.2 × 3.2 cm. Empirical treatment with non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs and antimicrobials was instigated.
