Identification of fungal isolates by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in veterinary practice: validation of a web application.
a reliable method to identify fungal isolates. The success of this approach relies on the availability of exhaustive databases, but the latter were built with a focus on human pathogens. We assessed a large ...
Welfare-Adjusted Life Years (WALY): A novel metric of animal welfare that combines the impacts of impaired welfare and abbreviated lifespan.
veterinarians (n = 61) was conducted to elicit impaired welfare weights for 35 welfare impediments. Paired comparison was the primary method to elicit weights, whereas visual analogue scale and time trade-off ...
Comparative genomics of quinolone-resistant and susceptible Campylobacter jejuni of poultry origin from major poultry producing European countries (GENCAMP)
different phylogenetic methods, ranging from single nucleotide polymorphisms analysis to gene-by-gene approaches such as rMLST, cgMLST, wgMLST and core genome tree, provided concordant results, but it is not ...
Development and validation of a TaqMan probe-based real-time PCR method for the differentiation of wild type lumpy skin disease virus from vaccine virus strains.
Sachpatzidis, Achilleas; Kris De Clercq; Alexandropoulos, Thomas; Polizopoulou, Zoe S; Chondrokouki, Eleni D; Dovas, Chrysostomos I Source: J Virol Methods, Volume 249, p.48-57 (2017) Abstract: Lumpy skin disease ...
Improved Metrological Traceability of Particle Size Values Measured with Line-Start Incremental Centrifugal Liquid Sedimentation.
Volume 33, Issue 33, p.8213-8224 (2017) Abstract: Line-start incremental centrifugal liquid sedimentation (disc- CLS) is a powerful method to determine particle size based on the principles of Stokes’ law. ...
Selection and transfer of an IncI1-tet(A) plasmid of Escherichia coli in an ex vivo model of the porcine caecum at doxycycline concentrations caused by crosscontaminated feed.
and 1 mg l(-1)), caused by cross-contamination of feed, on the enrichment of a DOX-resistant commensal Escherichia coli and its resistance plasmid in an ex vivo model of the porcine caecum. METHODS AND ...
Laboratory validation of two real-time RT-PCR methods with 5'-tailed primers for an enhanced detection of foot-and-mouth disease virus.

Characterization of three commercial ELISA kits for detection of BOHV-1 gE specific antibodies in serum and milk samples and applicability of bulk milk for determination of herd status.
Methods, Volume 245, p.66-72 (2017) Abstract: Vaccination of animals with gE-deleted vaccine strains (gE- marker vaccines) and differential detection of vaccinated vs infected animals with antibody ELISA ...
Imported human brucellosis in Belgium: Bio and molecular typing of bacterial isolates, 1996-2015.
origin of each strain when patient history and risk factors were missing, and to survey for particular trends at the national level. METHODS: A total of 37 Brucella strains, isolated from 37 patients in ...
Exploring the Diversity of Field Strains of Brucella abortus Biovar 3 Isolated in West Africa.
