Plasmonics‐Enhanced Characterization of Cervid PrP (87–114) Fragment Aggregates in Solution
Multimodal nanophotonics platform combining plasmon‐enhanced imaging, label‐free SERS, and optical staining reveals new insights into the aggregation of the cervid PrP (87–114) fragment, an amyloidogenic sequence linked to chronic wasting disease susceptibility.ABSTRACTWe performed a multimodal characterisation of self‐assembled fibrillar aggregates ...

Prospective fecal microbiomic biomarkers for chronic wasting disease
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a naturally occurring prion disease in cervids that has been rapidly proliferating in the United States. Here, we investigated a potential link between CWD infection and gut microbiome by analyzing 50 fecal samples ...

Bayesian Modeling of Prion Disease Dynamics in Mule Deer Using Population Monitoring and Capture-Recapture Data. [PDF]
Epidemics of chronic wasting disease (CWD) of North American Cervidae have potential to harm ecosystems and economies. We studied a migratory population of mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) affected by CWD for at least three decades using a Bayesian ...

Hunting regulations and movements of alpine reindeer
Most ungulate populations are regulated by hunting, and harvest rate is regulated through quotas and hunting season duration. Hunting is well known to affect behaviour of ungulates, but how annual variation in quotas and hunting season duration affects individual behaviour remains uncertain.

Detecting disease progression from animal movement using hidden Markov models
We demonstrate how (H)HMMs can be tailored to different epidemiological scenarios and provide a template workflow for developing and selecting Hidden Markov models to infer disease status from animal movement data. Identifying infection before mortality occurs offers a valuable early‐warning tool for population managers, reduces reliance on difficult ...

Chronic Wasting Disease Drives Population Decline of White-Tailed Deer. [PDF]
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is an invariably fatal transmissible spongiform encephalopathy of white-tailed deer, mule deer, elk, and moose. Despite a 100% fatality rate, areas of high prevalence, and increasingly expanding geographic endemic areas ...

ABSTRACT The rising global consumption of game meat has highlighted gaps in the management of biological hazards associated with its production and consumption, and the safety of processed game meat products remain insufficiently addressed. Therefore, there is a need for research evaluating the effectiveness of processing and preservation methods in ...
