Vibrio pathogenicity island and phage CTX genes in Vibrio alginolyticus isolated from different aquatic environments
(IWA Publishing, 2022-10-01)
In the present study, we investigated the presence of four Vibrio cholerae virulence genes (ctxA, VPI, Zot and ace) in 36 Vibrio alginolyticus isolates obtained from different seawater, sediments and ...
Zika vector competence data reveals risks of outbreaks: the contribution of the European ZIKAlliance project
(Nature Research, 2022-08-02)
First identified in 1947, Zika virus took roughly 70 years to cause a pandemic unusually associated with virus-induced brain damage in newborns. Zika virus is transmitted by mosquitoes, mainly Aedes ...
Biogas Upgrading and Ammonia Recovery from Livestock Manure Digestates in a Combined Electromethanogenic Biocathode—Hydrophobic Membrane System
(MDPI, 2021-01-19)
Anaerobic digestion process can be improved in combination with bioelectrochemical systems in order to recover energy and resources from digestates. An electromethanogenic microbial electrolysis cell ...
Design strategies for positively charged endolysins: Insights into Artilysin development
(Elsevier, 2023-09-06)
Endolysins are bacteriophage-encoded enzymes that can specifically degrade the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell wall, making them an attractive tool for the development of novel antibacterial agents. ...
Use of Mass Spectrometry to Determine the Diversity of Toxins Produced by Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa Species from Balearic Islands and Crete (Mediterranean Sea) and the Canary Islands (Northeast Atlantic)
(MDPI, 2020-05-07)
Over the last decade, knowledge has significantly increased on the taxonomic identity and distribution of dinoflagellates of the genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa. Additionally, a number of hitherto ...

(Wiley, 2023-08-01)
On request of the EU Commission theEFSA carried out a ExtensiveLiterature Review (ELR)to provide a list of vector species or reservoirs species of pathogens of fish, crustaceans, and ...
Potential of MMP-9 based nanoparticles at optimizing the cow dry period: pulling apart the effects of MMP-9 and nanoparticles
(Nature Research, 2020-07-09)
The cow dry period is a non-milking interval where the mammary gland involutes and regenerates
to guarantee an optimal milk production in the subsequent lactation. Important bottlenecks such
as the ...
Effectiveness of precision feeding in reducing N excretion in dairy cattle
(Elsevier, 2023-07-01)
Two periods enrolling 56 (milk yield 36.2 ± 7.91 kg/d) and 58 (milk yield 32.4 ± 4.99 kg/d) grouped-fed dairy cows were performed to evaluate nutrient adjustment and N emissions of a precision feeding ...
A neutralizing monoclonal antibody-based competitive ELISA for classical swine fever C-strain post–vaccination monitoring
(BMC, 2020-01-14)
Background: Virus neutralization test (VNT) is widely used for serological survey of classical swine fever (CSF) and efficacy evaluation of CSF vaccines. However, VNT is a time consuming procedure that ...
