Reflection paper on MRSA in food-producing and companion animals: epidemiology and control options for human and animal health.

research on the risk of MRSA infection and colonization in animals. Attention focused on occurrence, risk factors for colonization and infection, and human contact hazard for livestock, horses, and companion ...

Analysis of benzophenone and 4-methylbenzophenone in breakfast cereals using ultrasonic extraction in combination with gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS(n)).

quantification. In conclusion, this method is able to detect both BP and 4MBP at very low concentrations (LOD =2microg kg(-1)) in breakfast cereals. Health Topics:  Food contact materials Matériaux en contact avec ...

Epidemiology of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) among residents of nursing homes in Belgium.

mec) typing, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and resistance genes. RESULTS: Of 2953 residents screened in 60 NH s, 587 (19.9%) were MRSA carriers. Risk factors included hospital contact, antibiotic ...

The reduction of CSFV transmission to untreated pigs by the pestivirus inhibitor BPIP: a proof of concept.

virus transmission to untreated sentinel pigs was studied. Therefore, BPIP-treated pigs (n=4), intra-muscularly infected with CSFV, were placed into contact with untreated sentinel pigs (n=4). Efficient ...

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST398 in swine farm personnel, Belgium.

(37.8%) persons carried MRSA ST398 and 1 (0.8%) had concurrent skin infection. Risk factors for carriage were MRSA carriage by pigs, regular contact with pigs and companion animals, and use of ...

Quantification of foot-and-mouth disease virus transmission rates using published data.

sheep to in-contact pigs. This new analysis utilises a state-of-the-art Generalised Linear Model to estimate the transmission rate. From the obtained results it is concluded that meta-analysis of “old” ...

A pyrazolotriazolopyrimidinamine inhibitor of bovine viral diarrhea virus replication that targets the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase.

RdRp. Docking of LZ37 in the crystal structure of the BVDV RdRp revealed several potential contacts including: (i) hydrophobic contacts of LZ37 with A221, A222, G223, F224 and A392; (ii) a stacking ...
