Oropharyngeal botryomycosis in a geriatric mare
(Wiley, 2017-11-27)
Botryomycosis is an uncommon chronic bacterial infection that can have cutaneous and visceral involvement. This report describes an 18‐year‐old mixed‐breed mare presented with dysphagia, dyspnoea and ...
Land use alters the abundance of herbivore and predatory insects on crops: the case of alfalfa
(Springer, 2021-06-11)
We assess the effects of changing land use and crop management on alfalfa insect abundance by comparing it in 50 alfalfa fields when they were inserted in landscapes with different proportions of arable ...
The biological potential hidden in inclusion bodies
(MDPI, 2020-02-15)
Inclusion bodies (IBs) are protein nanoclusters obtained during recombinant protein production processes, and several studies have demonstrated their potential as biomaterials for therapeutic protein ...
Valorisation of pork by-products to obtain antioxidant and antihypertensive peptides
(Elsevier, 2023-05-12)
The porcine liver could be used for the extraction of zinc-protoporphyrin (ZnPP) as a natural red meat pigment. During the autolysis process, porcine liver homogenates was incubated at pH 4.8 and 45 °C ...
Physical and Chemical Properties of Limestone Quarry Technosols Used in the Restoration of Mediterranean Habitats
(MDPI, 2023-09-06)
The lack of topsoil is frequently a limiting factor in limestone quarry restoration. This implies that new technosols for maintaining target habitats must be created using mining wastes as the main ...
Effect of dietary seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum) supplementation on milk mineral concentrations, transfer efficiency, and hematological parameters in lactating Holstein cows
(Elsevier, 2023-05-18)
This study investigated the effect of feeding seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum) to dairy cows on milk mineral concentrations, feed-to-milk mineral transfer efficiencies and hematological parameters. Lactating ...
Dynamics of the Pacific Oyster Pathobiota during mortality episodes in Europe assessed by 16S rRNA gene profiling and a new target enrichment next‐generation sequencing strategy
(Wiley, 2019-07-20)
Infectious agents such as the bacteria Vibrio aestuarianus or Ostreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV‐1) have been repeatedly associated with dramatic disease outbreaks of Crassostrea gigas beds in Europe. Beside ...
Characterizing the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of pain biomarkers in cattle using receiver operating characteristic curves
(Elsevier, 2022-10-04)
Biomarkers are used to assess pain and analgesic drug efficacy in livestock. However, often the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of these biomarkers for different painful conditions over time have ...
Whole rumen metagenome sequencing allows classifying and predicting feed efficiency and intake levels in cattle
(Nature Research, 2019-01-09)
The current research was carried out to determine the associations between the rumen microbiota and traits related with feed efficiency in a Holstein cattle population (n = 30) using whole metagenome ...
Enhanced high hydrostatic pressure lethality in acidulated raw pet food formulations was pathogen species and strain dependent
(Elsevier, 2022-02-07)
Feeding dogs and cats with raw meat-based pet food is taking relevance in the recent years. The high aw of these products together with the no cooking before its consumption by the animal pose a risk ...
