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. ...
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 ...
Dairy farmers’ decision‐making to implement biosecurity measures: A study of psychosocial factors
(Wiley, 2019-10-10)
Biosecurity measures are a set of management procedures that prevent the risk of introducing and spreading infectious diseases to a farm, although these measures are rarely implemented in dairy farms. ...
Comparative analysis of the fecal microbiota from different species of domesticated and wild suids
(Nature Research, 2019-09-20)
Most of the microorganisms living in a symbiotic relationship in different animal body sites (microbiota) reside in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Several studies have shown that the microbiota is ...
Evaluation of the effectiveness of the surveillance system for tuberculosis in cattle in Spain
(Elsevier, 2019-10-20)
In Spain, the eradication of tuberculosis (TB) in cattle has had some setbacks and therefore we need to re-evaluate the current surveillance strategies. The Spanish cattle TB surveillance system consists ...
Systems analysis reveals complex biological processes during virus infection fate decisions
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2019-05-28)
The processes and mechanisms of virus infection fate decisions that are the result of a dynamic virus-immune system interaction with either an efficient effector response and virus elimination or an ...
Salmonella Infection in Mesenteric Lymph Nodes of Breeding Sows
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2019-12-06)
Salmonellosis is one of the main foodborne diseases worldwide. Breeding sows asymptomatically infected with Salmonella can transmit the pathogen to piglets and humans. The isolation of Salmonella from ...
Haemophilus parasuis VtaA2 is involved in adhesion to extracellular proteins
(BMC, 2019-09-23)
Haemophilus parasuis is part of the microbiota of the upper respiratory tract in swine. However, virulent strains can cause a systemic disease known as Glässer’s disease. Several virulence factors have ...
Global monitoring of antimicrobial resistance based on metagenomics analyses of urban sewage
(Nature Research, 2019-03-08)
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to global public health, but obtaining representative data on AMR for healthy human populations is difficult. Here, we use metagenomic analysis of ...
Antimicrobial removal on piglets promotes health and higher bacterial diversity in the nasal microbiota
(Nature Research, 2019-04-25)
The view on antimicrobials has dramatically changed due to the increased knowledge on the importance of microbiota composition in different body parts. Antimicrobials can no longer be considered only ...
