Efficacy of parenteral vaccination against tuberculosis with heat-inactivated Mycobacterium bovis in experimentally challenged goats
(Public Library of Science, 2018-05-09)
Tuberculosis (TB) in animals is a re-emerging disease with a wide range of hosts that
causes large economic losses in livestock. Goats are particularly susceptible to TB and, in
endemic areas, vaccination ...
Assessing the variability in transmission of bovine tuberculosis within Spanish cattle herds
(Elsevier, 2018-01-31)
In Spain, despite years of efforts to eradicate bovine tuberculosis (bTB), the disease is still endemic, with some
areas of high prevalence. In this context, the surveillance and control plans may need ...
Mycoplasma conjunctivae in insect vectors and anatomic locations related to transmission and persistence
(Elsevier, 2018-11-12)
Mycoplasma conjunctivae is an obligate microparasite that causes Infectious Keratoconjunctivitis (IKC) in Caprinae species. IKC is a long-recognised disease, but little attention has been paid to the ...
Update on Mycoplasma hyopneumoniaeinfections in pigs: Knowledge gaps for improved disease control
(Wiley, 2017-08-23)
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae(M. hyopneumoniae) is the primary pathogen of enzooticpneumonia, a chronic respiratory disease in pigs. Infections occur worldwide andcause major economic losses to the pig ...
Investigation of chronic and persistent classical swine fever infections under field conditions and their impact on vaccine efficacy
(BMC, 2019-07-15)
Background: Recent studies have hypothesized that circulation of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) variants when the immunity induced by the vaccine is not sterilizing might favour viral persistence. ...
Evaluation of a Phylogenetic Marker Based on Genomic Segment B of Infectious Bursal Disease Virus: Facilitating a Feasible Incorporation of this Segment to the Molecular Epidemiology Studies for this Viral Agent
(Public Library of Science, 2015-05-06)
Background
Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is a highly contagious and acute viral disease, which has caused high mortality rates in birds and considerable economic losses in different parts of the world ...
Combined effects of spray‐drying conditions and postdrying storage time and temperature on Salmonella choleraesuis and Salmonella typhimurium survival when inoculated in liquid porcine plasma
(Wiley, 2018-06-11)
The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the spray-drying process on the inactivation of Salmonella choleraesuis and Salmonella typhimurium spiked in liquid porcine plasma and ...
Conserved HA-peptides expressed along with flagellin in Trichoplusia ni larvae protects chicken against intranasal H7N1 HPAIV challenge
(Elsevier, 2019-11-14)
The immunization of poultry where H5 and H7 influenza viruses (IVs) are endemic is one of the strategies to prevent unexpected zoonoses. Our group has been focused on conserved HA-epitopes as potential ...
Characterization In Vitro and In Vivo of a Pandemic H1N1 Influenza Virus from a Fatal Case
(Public Library of Science, 2013-01-10)
Pandemic 2009 H1N1 (pH1N1) influenza viruses caused mild symptoms in most infected patients. However, a greater rate of severe disease was observed in healthy young adults and children without co-morbid ...
Transgenic Mouse Bioassay: Evidence That Rabbits Are Susceptible to a Variety of Prion Isolates
(Public Library of Science, 2015-08-06)
Interspecies transmission of prions is a well-established phenomenon, both experimentally and under field conditions. Upon passage through new hosts, prion strains have proven their capacity to change ...
