High‐Throughput Isolation of Nanomouse‐Derived VHH Domains: A Practical Guide from Immunization to Nanobody Expression

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Nanobodies are small but specific heavy chain–only antibody fragments. Their small size, relative stability, and ability to access difficult to reach deep‐tissue antigens makes them valuable research, diagnostic, and therapeutic tools. Nanobodies are derived from the variable heavy (VH) domain of heavy chain–only antibodies that are unique to ...

A Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Quantitative Trait Loci Affecting Hematological Traits in Camelus bactrianus

Animals, 2020
Bactrian camels (Camelus bactrianus) are one of the few large livestock species that can survive in the Gobi Desert. Animal immunity and disease resistance are related to hematological traits, which are also associated with tolerance observed in Bactrian

Prevalence and Molecular Characterisation of Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia duodenalis in Equines in Algeria

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This cross‐sectional study reports the prevalence and molecular characterisation of Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia duodenalis in Algerian equines. C. equi and C. hominis were detected for the first time in Algerian horses and donkeys, respectively, and equines are identified as potential sources of zoonotic C. parvum subtypes.

Foodborne Risk to Human Health of Hepatitis E Virus in Pigs and Pigmeat in Ireland

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a major cause of acute viral hepatitis in people worldwide. In Ireland, evidence of past HEV exposure has been identified in approximately 5% of blood donors, while a small proportion have detectable viral RNA. HEV is also present in pigs and has been detected in pigmeat products, raising concerns about foodborne ...

Diversity Patterns of Domestic Herbivore Viruses in China Reveal Transmission Dynamics with Disease Management Implications

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.

Nanobodies: A Promising Toolkit for Diagnostic Applications

SmartMat, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
This review focuses on camelid‐derived nanobodies (VHHs) and explains how their small size and high stability support robust diagnostic design. Applications across ELISA, lateral flow assays, and PET/SPECT imaging are summarized, along with clinical progress such as caplacizumab.
