Experimental infection of goats with Mycobacterium microti induces subclinical pulmonary tuberculosis and mild responses to tuberculin skin tests
(Elsevier, 2024-01-22)
Mycobacterium microti is a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex that seldom causes disease in
livestock and humans. This study evaluated the effects on immunodiagnosis and the pathological ...
Insight into the host-specificity of a native and a newly introduced parasitoid of Tuta absoluta and prospect for biological control
(Elsevier, 2024-02-16)
New strategies are urgently needed to control Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), one of the most destructive pests of tomato crops. Originating from South America, it is spreading rapidly ...
Production of Flathead Grey Mullet (Mugil cephalus) and Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) in a Coupled Aquaponic System under Suboptimal Water Temperatures
(MDPI, 2024-05-21)
The combined production of three varieties of lettuce (romaine, iceberg, and red leaf) with flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus) was tested in triplicate in three independent coupled aquaponic units ...
Exploring the Antiviral Potential of Natural Compounds against Influenza: A Combined Computational and Experimental Approach
(MDPI, 2024-04-30)
The influenza A virus nonstructural protein 1 (NS1), which is crucial for viral replication
and immune evasion, has been identified as a significant drug target with substantial potential to
contribute ...
Planktic diatom responses to spatiotemporal environmental variation in high-mountain tropical lakes
(Wiley, 2024-01-18)
1. Tropical lakes harbour high levels of biodiversity, but the temporal and spatial variability of biological communities are still inadequately characterised, making it difficult to predict the impact ...
Selection of a Probiotic for Its Potential for Developing a Synbiotic Peach and Grape Juice
(MDPI, 2024-01-22)
Due to recent interest in the potential of probiotics as health promoters and the impact of health and environmental concerns on eating habits, non-dairy probiotic food products are required. This study ...
Dietary supplementation of a combination of formic acid and sodium formate in practical diets promotes gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) gut morphology and disease resistance
(Elsevier, 2024-01-29)
Optimizing growth and feed conversion ratios by improving gut function and health is critial to ensuring costeffective production in aquaculture, especially in the current context of low fishmeal and ...
Differentiation between fresh and frozen-thawed mackerel fish using low-cost portable near infrared spectrometry devices
(Elsevier, 2024-05-11)
Mislabelling frozen-thawed fish fillets as fresh is one of the most important fraudulent practices during commercialisation. This study aimed to determine the ability of two portable miniaturised low-cost ...
Air treatment technologies in pig farms. Life cycle assessment of dry and wet scrubbers in Northern Italy and Northeastern Spain
(Elsevier, 2024-02-24)
Over the years, different solutions were developed and tested to reduce the emissions of ammonia and particulate matter from the livestock facilities. The environmental performances of these solutions ...
Immunomodulation Evidence of Nanostructured Recombinant Proteins in Salmonid Cells
(MDPI, 2024-03-09)
Recent studies have demonstrated that immune-related recombinant proteins can enhance immune function, increasing host survival against infectious diseases in salmonids. This research evaluated inclusion ...
