据1985年6月份调查,田栉眼蚤大量存在于精河县境天山山地鼠疫自然疫源地内的小海子地区长尾黄鼠巢穴中。以小白鼠作为供血动物,兔血粉作为饲料,在温度16—18℃,相对湿度85—95％条件下人工饲养,该蚤可正常生活、繁殖。为研究该蚤在鼠疫动物流行病方面的作用,我们进行了鼠疫菌的蚤感染试验,试验的210只感染强毒鼠疫菌的田栉眼蚤均未能形成菌栓,显示该蚤种形成栓塞的可能性甚小。但它却能在模拟长尾黄鼠巢穴中保存鼠疫菌近达10个月之久。 According to a survey conducted in June 1985, a large number of tandards were present in the long-tailed hamster nest in the small Haizi area within the natural foci of Tianshan Mountain Plague in Jinghe County. Using white mice as donor and rabbit blood meal as feed, artificial feeding was carried out under the condition of temperature of 16-18 ℃ and relative humidity of 85-95%. The flea can live and reproduce normally. In order to study the role of fleas in the epidemic of plague animals, we conducted a flea infection test against P. yunnanensis, and none of the 210 T. infestans infected with virulent P. infestans formed bacteriocins, indicating that the fleas formed emboli Very unlikely. But it can save Y. pestis in the simian long-tailed zoological nests for nearly 10 months.
