Occurrence and antimicrobial resistance of zoonotic enteropathogens in gulls from southern Europe
(Elsevier, 2020-10-19)
Campylobacter spp. and Salmonella spp. are the two most frequent zoonotic bacteria involved in human enteric infections in the European Union. Both enteropathogens have been isolated from a diversity ...
Rural veterinarian's perception and practices in terms of biosecurity across three European countries
(Wiley, 2017-09-21)
The implementation of biosecurity measures in the animal health and production context is quite broad and aims at limiting the risk of introduction and spread of diseases. Veterinarians play a major ...
Coinfection with Entamoeba polecki and Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in a pig with severe diarrhea
(SAGE Publications, 2019-02-09)
Enteric disease in pigs is usually of multifactorial etiology, including infectious and non-infectious factors. In many cases of endemic diarrhea in weaner-to-finisher pigs, the combination of 2 or more ...
Improving Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae diagnostic capabilities by harnessing the infection dynamics
(Elsevier, 2022-07-25)
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae remains one of the most problematic bacterial pathogens for pig production. Despite an abundance of observational and laboratory testing capabilities for this organism, diagnostic ...
Multi-isotopic assessments of spatio-temporal diet variability: the case of two sympatric gulls in the western Mediterranean
(Wiley, 2018-11-15)
In predator populations, changes in foraging behaviour in response to spatio-temporal variability of prey are expected. Prey depletion might cause trophic niche widening in generalist species, but not ...
Testing of umbilical cords by real time PCR is suitable for assessing vertical transmission of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus under field conditions
(Elsevier, 2018-02-01)
The objective of this study was to test the suitability of umbilical cord (UC) sampling and ear vein swabbing (EVS) as alternatives to jugular vein bleeding (JVB) for the assessment of vertical transmission ...
Increasing breast milk betaine modulates Akkermansia abundance in mammalian neonates and improves long-term metabolic health
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2021-03-31)
Accelerated postnatal growth is a potentially modifiable risk factor for future obesity. To study how specific breast milk components contribute to early growth and obesity risk, we quantified one-carbon ...
Molecular detection of Treponema species organisms in foremilk and udder cleft skin of dairy cows with digital dermatitis
(Springer, 2019-09-13)
Identification of reservoirs and transmission routes of digital dermatitis (DD)-associated Treponema spp. is considered an effective means for controlling DD infection in dairy cows. The objective of ...
Retrospective study on transmissible viral proventriculitis and chicken proventricular necrosis virus (CPNV) in the UK
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-10-21)
Chicken proventricular necrosis virus (CPNV) is a recently described birnavirus, which has been proposed to be the cause of transmissible viral proventriculitis (TVP). The understanding of the epidemiology ...
Comparison of cytokine profiles in peripheral blood mononuclear cells between piglets born from Porcine circovirus 2 vaccinated and non-vaccinated sows
(Elsevier, 2017-12-19)
This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) sow vaccination on cell-mediated immune responses in sows and their progeny. At 7 weeks before farrowing, fifteen PCV2 PCR ...
