Lymphosarcoma in 10 New World Camelids

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 1995
Abstarct We evaluated the medical information from 10 New World Camelids with lymphosarcoma. Additionally, tumor tissue from 5 animals was examined by electron microscopy for evidence of retroviral particles. Lymphosarcoma was the most common neoplasm of New World Camelids in our hospital.

Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus in New World Camelids [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2000
A virus known to cause multiple problems in cattle, bovine viral diarrhea virus, was isolated from 3 different cases in New World camelids. Virus isolation, immunoperoxidase staining, and fluourescent antibody staining were used to detect the virus. The herds involved were screened for antibody titers to bovine viral diarrhea and virus isolation from ...

Farnesyltransferase Enables Modular Assembly of Dual‐Functional Nanobody Conjugates for in Vivo Imaging of Inflammation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A modular farnesyltransferase‐based chemoenzymatic platform enables fast, site‐specific labeling of nanobodies for PET imaging of inflammation. CD11b‐targeted PET agents selectively image myeloid‐driven inflammation, while CD45‐targeted PET agents provide sensitive whole‐body immune mapping.
