Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
preparation methods that could enhance the detection of the virus in the sample or during the sequencing (i.e. adaptive sampling). Overall, we showed that shotgun metagenomics, with or without amplification, ...
Listeria monocytogenes isolates from Cornu aspersum snails: Whole genome-based characterization and host-pathogen interactions in a snail infection model.
strongly associated with cases of human infection. All isolates contained intact genes associated with invasion and infection while hypervirulent isolates are adapted to host environment, possessing genes ...
Development of a genoserotyping system for the identification of Salmonella serotypes
adapted to the need of the field, especially for the professionals of the food sector who need to rapidly, accurately and cost-efficiently detect the serotypes targeted by the legislation. Fortunately, ...
Laboratory Diagnosis of Bovine Abortions Caused by Non-Maintenance Pathogenic Leptospira spp.: Necropsy, Serology and Molecular Study Out of a Belgian Experience.
numerous existing serovars and their adaptation to specific hosts. Infections by host-maintained serovars such as Hardjo are well documented, unlike those from the incidental ones. In July 2014, an emerging ...
Reproductive Disorders and Leptospirosis: A Case Study in a Mixed-Species Farm (Cattle and Swine).
David Fretin; Isabelle Behaeghel Source: Vet Sci, Volume 4, Issue 4 (2017) Keywords: Leptospirosis Abstract: Animal leptospirosis, exempt in rodents, manifests as peculiar biology where the animal can ...

Publication Type: Dissertation Authors: Libert, Xavier Source: Université de Liège, Liège, Belgique, p.253 (2017) Accession Number: NA Keywords: Fungi Molecular biology public health Abstract: ...
CystiSim- An Agent-Based Model for Taenia solium Transmission and Control.
https://www.sciensano.be/en/biblio/cystisim-agent-based-model-taenia-solium-transmission-and-control
(http://cran.r-project.org/package=cystiSim). cystiSim was adapted to an observed setting using field data from Tanzania, but adaptable to other settings if necessary. The model description adheres to the Overview, Design concepts, and Details ...
The role of CXC chemokines in the transition of chronic inflammation to esophageal and gastric cancer
tumor growth retardation and regression. Thus, chemokines exert diverging, sometimes dual roles in tumor biology as described for esophageal and gastric cancer. Therefore extensive research is needed to ...
Measurement of systemic and local respiratory cell-mediated immunity after influenza infection in chickens.
Biologically and structurally intact forms of the viral proteins were isolated by non-ionic detergents while heating, chemical agents and ionic detergent used for virus inactivation altered the antigenic viral ...
Establishment of a biological reference preparation for Hepatitis A Vaccine (Inactivated, Non-adsorbed)4425
3 manufacturers as candidate Biological Reference Preparations (BRP s). Thirteen laboratoriesparticipated in the collaborative study. They were asked to use an in vitro ELISA method adapted from ...
