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.
the analysis to 198 individual with concordant ELISA results in serum (91 naïve, 37 vaccinated and 70 infected) the DS e of gE kits was estimated to 0,97 for IDEXX, 0,93 for CIV- HIPRA and 0,53 for IDV ...
Imported human brucellosis in Belgium: Bio and molecular typing of bacterial isolates, 1996-2015.
Belgium, were analyzed by both classical biotyping and MLVA, and the genetic patterns compared to those of human strains isolated worldwide. RESULTS: Classical biotyping revealed that isolates were mainly ...
Exploring the Diversity of Field Strains of Brucella abortus Biovar 3 Isolated in West Africa.
a systematic review were compared using a clustering analysis and the Hunter-Gaston diversity index (HGDI). Thus, the analysis of the 42 MLVA genotyping results found in the literature on West Africa [i.e., from ...
Validation of a particle tracking analysis method for the size determination of nano- and microparticles.
attempts have so far been made to investigate and quantify the performance of the PTA method for particle size analysis. This article presents the results of a validation study during which selected ...
Risks for animal health related to the presence of zearalenone and its modified forms in feed
CONTAM Panel in 2016 were used. The dietary exposure was estimated on 17,706 analytical results with high proportions of left-censored data (ZEN about 60%, ZAN about 70%, others close to 100%). Samples for ...
Effect of residual doxycycline concentrations on resistance selection and transfer in porcine commensal escherichia coli.
showed that a 3% carry-over level of doxycycline (DOX) in the feed results in porcine faecal concentrations of approximately 4 mg/L. This study aimed to determine the effect of residual DOX concentrations ...
A dose-escalation study of combretastatin A4-phosphate in healthy dogs.
Combretastatin A4-Phosphate (CA4P) is a vascular disrupting agent revealing promising results in cancer treatments for humans. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety and adverse events of CA4P in ...
Characterization of two recombinant HVT-IBD vaccines by VP2 insert detection and cell-mediated immunity after vaccination of specific pathogen-free chickens.
5 weeks. CMI was detected by measuring chicken interferon-gamma after ex vivo antigenic stimulation of splenocytes. Moreover, our results showed that the enzyme-linked immunospot approach is more sensitive ...
Foot-and-mouth disease virus serotype SAT1 in cattle, Nigeria.
FMDV SAT1 in West Africa. The VP1 coding sequence of the Nigerian 2015 SAT1 isolates diverges from reported SAT1 topotypes resulting in a separate topotype. The reporting of a novel FMDV SAT1 strain in ...
Us3 and Us9 proteins contribute to the stromal invasion of bovine herpesvirus 1 in the respiratory mucosa.
Knockout of Us3 resulted in a 1 log10 reduction in viral titre and plaque size (latitude) in MDBK cells and the trachea mucosa. There were no defects in the cell-to-cell spread observed for BHV-1 Us9 null ...
