Interventional human ocular safety experiments for 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C lamp irradiation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 517-526, March/April 2025.
To directly assess the ocular safety of 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C (UVC) irradiation in humans, five subjects were exposed to 222‐nm UVC at doses of 22, 50, and 75 mJ/cm2. The findings indicate that far‐UVC irradiation does not cause “clinically significant photokeratitis” or long‐term ocular damage, though it may induce temporary discomfort.

Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming

Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...

Species-Specific Contribution of the Four C-Terminal Amino Acids of Influenza A Virus NS1 Protein to Virulence [PDF]

, 2010
Large-scale sequence analyses of influenza viruses revealed that nonstructural 1 (NS1) proteins from avian influenza viruses have a conserved C-terminal ESEV amino acid motif, while NS1 proteins from typical human influenza viruses have a C-terminal RSKV

Iterative Co‐Development of the Tripartite Joint Risk Assessment Operational Process and Tool Through Incorporating Information From Pilots in Indonesia, the United Republic of Tanzania, and Georgia

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.
Piloting of the Tripartite Joint Risk Assessment (JRA) process and tool in countries provided feedback for improvement, evidence‐based estimates of national risks from priority zoonotic diseases, and practical training of national facilitators. The JRA offers simple step‐by‐step guidance to countries wishing to undertake joint qualitative risk ...

Probiotics as a Strategy for Mitigating Viral Infections in Poultry: Immunomodulatory Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
Probiotics—particularly Lactobacillus acidophilus, L. casei and L. plantarum—may mitigate NDV, AIV and IBV infections by modulating immunity, supporting gut microbiome and barrier function, and enhancing vaccine responses, although stronger strain‐specific, safety, mechanistic and field‐based evidence is needed. ABSTRACT Poultry viral infections remain
