Antimicrobial Resistant Salmonella in Chelonians: Assessing Its Potential Risk in Zoological Institutions in Spain
(MDPI, 2022-05-31)
Salmonella is mostly noted as a food-borne pathogen, but contact with chelonians has also
been reported as a source of infection. Moreover, high levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) have
been ...
Enhancing the monitoring of fallen stock at different hierarchical administrative levels: an illustration on dairy cattle from regions with distinct husbandry, demographical and climate traits
(BMC, 2020-04-14)
Background: The automated collection of non-specific data from livestock, combined with techniques for data mining and time series analyses, facilitates the development of animal health syndromic ...
Inactivation of African swine fever virus inoculated in liquid plasma by spray drying and storage for 14 days at 4˚C or 20˚C
(Public Library of Science, 2023-08-22)
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a dsDNA virus that can cause high mortality in pigs of all
ages. Spray-dried porcine plasma (SDPP) is a highly digestible ingredient used in feed
because it benefits ...
Peste des petits ruminants at the wildlife-livestock interface in the Northern Albertine Rift and Nile Basin, East Africa
(MDPI, 2020-03-07)
In the recent past, peste des petits ruminants (PPR) emerged in East Africa causing outbreaks in small livestock across different countries, with evidences of spillover to wildlife. In order to understand ...

(MDPI, 2021-12-16)
Several cases of naturally infected dogs with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus
2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been reported despite the apparently low susceptibility of this species. Here, we
document ...
Development and validation of direct PCR and quantitative PCR assays for the rapid, sensitive, and economical detection of porcine circovirus 3
(SAGE Publications, 2018-04-09)
Since the identification of species Porcine circovirus 2, the relevance of genus Circovirus has increased given its impact on the swine industry. A new species (Porcine circovirus 3, PCV-3) has been ...
Serological and molecular surveys of influenza A viruses in Antarctic and sub-Antarctic wild birds
(Cambridge University Press, 2019-12-03)
To evaluate how avian influenza virus (AIV) circulates among the avifauna of the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic islands, we surveyed 14 species of birds from Marion, Livingston and Gough islands. A competitive ...
Safety and Efficacy upon Infection in Sheep with Rift Valley Fever Virus ZH548-rA2, a Triple Mutant Rescued Virus
(MDPI, 2024-01-05)
The introduction of three single nucleotide mutations into the genome of the virulent RVFV
ZH548 strain allows for the rescue of a fully attenuated virus in mice (ZH548-rA2). These mutations
are located ...
Genetic diversification patterns in swine influenza A virus (H1N2) in vaccinated and nonvaccinated animals
(Frontiers Media, 2023-09-15)
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are characterized by having a segmented genome, low
proofreading polymerases, and a wide host range. Consequently, IAVs are
constantly evolving in nature causing a threat ...
