Physiological alterations and predictors of death in neonatal calves with weak calf syndrome

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Weak calf syndrome (WCS) is characterised by weakness, poor vitality and difficulty standing or suckling. Early identification of physiological alterations and prognostic indicators is critical for improving the management and survival of weak calves.

High‐throughput microfluidic real‐time PCR as a promising tool in disease ecology

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This work highlights the diversity of disease ecology questions Htrt PCR could contribute to addressing in a given host–pathogen ecosystem. This tool could be used to answer a broad set of basic and applied questions in animal ecology, notably by providing a way to address issues involving communities of hosts and communities of pathogens.

Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing to Investigate Infectious Endophthalmitis of Brucella: A Case Report

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
IntroductionBrucellosis is a systemic disease that exists prevalently in clinical manifestations. The symptoms present in organs such as the eyes (in ocular brucellosis) can lead to misdiagnosis or even failure to diagnose.

A loop‐mediated isothermal amplification assay to detect insect‐associated Serratia spp. in the critically endangered insect Dryococelus australis

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Inclusion of a novel sample cleanup step prior to extraction of bacterial DNA from insect frass enhanced rates of bacterial cell recovery and removed insect and plant cells. Development of a robust LAMP assay allowed detection of insect‐associated members of the Serratia marcescens complex in frass from live insects. Results from the LAMP assay applied

Should We Advance Our Understanding of Immunoglobulin E in Viral Immunity?

Immunology, EarlyView.
Immunoglobulin E has been extensively studied in allergies and parasitic diseases. Antigen‐specific IgE has been identified as part of the humoral response to viruses. This revision speculates on possible functionalities for IgE, such as neutralisation, cytotoxicity and immunopathology of viral diseases, and provide insights about gaps to fill in ...
