Uptake and Survival of African Swine Fever Virus in Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) and Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) Larvae
(MDPI, 2022-12-28)
Insect production offers a sustainable source of nutrients for livestock. This comes with a risk for transmission of pathogens from the insects into the livestock sector, including viruses causing serious ...
Diagnostic accuracy of two DNA‐based molecular assays for detection of porcine circovirus 3 in swine population using Bayesian latent class analysis
(Wiley, 2019-09-28)
Molecular‐based tools sometimes are the only laboratory techniques available to detect a recently discovered agent, and their validation without the existence of previously described ‘gold standard’ ...
Respiratory disorders of farmed rabbits: occurrence and risk factors
(Universidad Politécnica de Valencia, 2023-09-28)
In this study, we focused on the occurrence of respiratory disorders in rabbit farms, as well as
several risk factors. We based the assessment on 11 217 visits to 1288 commercial farms in Spain ...
Low CD4/CD8 ratio in classical swine fever postnatalpersistent infection generated at 3 weeks after birth
(Wiley, 2018-11-20)
Classical swine fever virus (CSFV) is one of the most important pathogens affectingswine. After infection with a moderate virulence strain at 8 hours after birth, CSFV isable to induce viral persistence. ...
Revisiting the genetic diversity of classical swine fever virus: A proposal for new genotyping and subgenotyping schemes of classification
(Wiley, 2018-05-25)
Classical swine fever (CSF) is a highly contagious febrile viral disease caused by CSF virus (CSFV), and it is considered one of the most important infectious diseases that affect domestic pigs and wild ...
Porcine Circovirus 3 Detection in Aborted Fetuses and Stillborn Piglets from Swine Reproductive Failure Cases
(MDPI, 2021-02-09)
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) has been widely detected in healthy and diseased pigs; among different pathologic conditions, the strongest evidence of association comes from reproductive disease cases. ...
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 ...
M448R and MGF505-7R: Two African Swine Fever Virus Antigens Commonly Recognized by ASFV-Specific T-Cells and with Protective Potential
(MDPI, 2021-05-14)
African swine fever (ASF) is today′s number one threat for the global swine industry. Neither commercial vaccine nor treatment is available against ASF and, thus far, only live attenuated viruses (LAV) ...
Diversity of respiratory viruses present in nasal swabs under influenza suspicion in respiratory disease cases of weaned pigs
(Frontiers Media, 2022-10-19)
Respiratory diseases in weaned pigs are a common problem, with a complex etiology involving both viruses and bacteria. In the present study, we investigated the presence of eleven viruses in nasal swabs, ...
