encode genes that are involved in immune evasion strategies of the virus. These may provide a starting point to further investigate the evolution of the virus. Health Topics:  Lumpy skin disease Service:  ...

Epidemiological Dynamics of Foot-and-Mouth Disease in the Horn of Africa: The Role of Virus Diversity and Animal Movement.

pastoralist. It faces countless problems, such as a shortage of pastures and watering points, poor access to veterinary services, and multiple endemic diseases like foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). Foot-and-mouth ...

First Belgian Report of Ertapenem Resistance in an ST11 Klebsiella Pneumoniae Strain Isolated from a Dog Carrying blaSCO-1 and blaDHA-1 Combined with Permeability Defects

the presence of  blaSCO-1  and  blaDHA-1, combined with permeability defects caused by point mutations in an outer membrane porin (OmpK37). The presence of the  blaSCO-1  gene on a conjugative IncFIB(K) ...

Selection and use of reference panels: a case study highlighting current gaps in the materials available for foot and mouth disease.

controls for new point-of-care test formats that can be deployed outside high containment, harmonise FMDV antigens for post-vaccination serology, and address inter-laboratory differences in serological ...

Selection and use of reference panels: a case study highlighting current gaps in the materials available for foot and mouth disease

tests used to detect diverse strains of FMD virus (FMDV), provide bio-safe positive controls for new point-of-care test formats that can be deployed outside high containment, harmonise FMDV antigens for ...

Phylogeography of Human and Animal Strains: Genetic Fingerprinting of Q Fever in Belgium.

likely contamination routes from the reservoir animals the critical point to implement control programs. This study shows that Q fever is detected in Belgium in abortion of cattle, goat and sheep at ...

Complex Circulation of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus in Cattle in Nigeria.

course of the study, while at some point in the study, outbreaks due to FMDV serotype A were observed in three remote States. The genetic and phylogenetic analysis suggests a mixed origin of FMD outbreaks. ...

Specific antibody-mediated immunity in the reproductive tract of laying chickens immunized against Newcastle disease with conventional attenuated and inactivated vaccines.

points and oviduct segments, all samples were positive for commercial ND- ELISA and in-house ELISA-IgG. However, six of these ELISA-IgG positive samples yielded negative results when submitted to the HI ...

Risks for animal health related to the presence of zearalenone and its modified forms in feed
