Relationship between Salmonella infection, shedding and serology in fattening pigs in low–moderate prevalence areas
(Wiley, 2018-04-27)
Salmonella is a major foodborne pathogen causing important zoonosis worldwide. Pigs asymptomatically infected in mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) can be intermittent shedders of the pathogen through faeces, ...
Similar frequency of Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) detection in serum samples of pigs affected by digestive or respiratory disorders and age‐matched clinically healthy pigs
(Wiley, 2019-09-04)
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV‐3) has been identified in pigs affected by different disease conditions, although its pathogenicity remains unclear. The objective of the present study was to assess the frequency ...
Functional responses of aquatic macroinvertebrates to flow regulation are shaped by natural flow intermittence in Mediterranean streams
(Wiley, 2019-03-19)
Running waters in Mediterranean regions are strongly regulated by dams, which produce significant alterations to natural flow regimes. Climate change will reduce discharge and increase flow intermittence ...
Comparison of vaccination protocols against Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae during the gilt acclimation period
(Elsevier, 2018-12-12)
This study evaluated different gilt vaccination protocols againstMycoplasma (M.) hyopneumoniaeat acclimationand their effect on the genetic diversity. A total of 180M. hyopneumoniaenaïve gilts were ...
Epidemiological and ultrasonographic investigation of bovine fascioliasis in smallholder production system in Eastern Nile Delta of Egypt
(Elsevier, 2018-07-18)
Regular updating of our knowledge on the epidemiological determinants of bovine fascioliasis is necessary to increase the awareness of the disease's significance and subsequently, improve the control ...
The discovery and comparative expression analysis of three distinct type I interferons in the perciform fish, meagre (Argyrosomus regius)
(Elsevier, 2018-02-07)
Type I interferons (IFN) play an important role in anti-viral responses. In teleost fish multiple genes exist, that are classified by group/subgroup. That multiple subgroups are present in Acanthopterygian ...
Detection of MERS-CoV antigen on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded nasal tissue of alpacas by immunohistochemistry using human monoclonal antibodies directed against different epitopes of the spike protein
(Elsevier, 2019-09-09)
Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) represents an important respiratory disease accompanied by lethal outcome in one third of human patients. In recent years, several investigators developed protective ...
Full‐genome sequencing of porcine circovirus 3 field strains from Denmark, Italy and Spain demonstrates a high within‐Europe genetic heterogeneity
(Wiley, 2018-02-16)
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV3) is a new species of the Circovirus genus, which has recently been associated with different clinical syndromes. Its presence has been reported in different countries of North ...
Transmission of tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium caprae between dairy sheep and goats
(Elsevier, 2017-11-24)
Increasing number of caprine tuberculosis (TB) reports grant the consideration of this zoonosis as an emergingdisease that can play a role in the epidemiology of bovine TB in endemic areas. An outbreak ...
Functional biodiversity and plasticity of methanogenic biomass from a full-scale mesophilic anaerobic digester treating nitrogen-rich agricultural wastes
(Elsevier, 2018-08-14)
The effect of ammonia on methanogenic biomass from a full-scale agricultural digester treating nitrogen-rich materials was characterized in batch activity assays subjected to increasing concentrations ...
