(Science of the Total Environment, 2020-01-15)Spray drift generated in the application of plant protection products in tree crops (3D crops) is a major source of environmental contamination, with repercussions for human health and the environment. ... -
Molecular detection of Treponema species organisms in foremilk and udder cleft skin of dairy cows with digital dermatitis
(Tropical Animal Health and Production, 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 ... -
Using commercial ELISAs to assess humoral response in sows repeatedly vaccinated with modified live porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus
(Veterinary Record, 2019-10-01)Background Sows in breeding herds are often mass vaccinated against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) every few months using modified live vaccines (MLV). Field veterinarians repeatedly ... -
Investigation of Haemophilus parasuis from healthy pigs in China
(Veterinary Microbiology, 2019-02-25)Haemophilus parasuis is a common colonizer of the upper respiratory tract of swine and frequently causes disease, especially in weaner pigs. To date, limited epidemiological data was available for H. ... -
Transcriptomic analysis of reproductive damage in the epididymis of male Kunming mice induced by chronic infection of Toxoplasma gondii PRU strain
(Parasites and Vectors, 2019-11-08)BACKGROUND: Some researchers have reported that Toxoplasma gondii can cause serious reproductive impairment in male animals. Specifically, T. gondii destroy the quality of sperm in the epididymis, which ... -
