A Comparison of DNA Metabarcoding Cloacal Swabs and Stomach Contents for Shark Diet Reconstruction
Metabarcoding fecal matter is increasingly common in dietary studies across a variety of taxa. This approach assumes that enough prey DNA remains detectable in the fecal DNA (fDNA) as the prey DNA becomes degraded while passing through the digestive ...

Detection of ALV p27 in cloacal swabs and virus isolation medium by sELISA. [PDF]
Abstract Background Avian leukosis (AL), which is caused by avian leukosis virus (ALV), has led to substantial economic losses in the poultry industry. The kit used to detect all ALV-positive chickens in breeder flocks is very important for efficiently controlling AL. However, a new emerging ALV subtype is

A Novel Dependoparvovirus Identified in Cloacal Swabs of Monk Parakeet (Myiopsitta monachus) from Urban Areas of Spain. [PDF]
The introduction of invasive birds into new ecosystems frequently has negative consequences for the resident populations. Accordingly, the increasing population of monk parakeets (Myiopsitta monachus) in Europe may pose a threat because we have little knowledge of the viruses they can transmit to native naïve species.

Identification and Pathogenicity of Escherichia coli from Cloacal Swabs
Colibacillosisis is an infectious disease in poultry caused by pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) as primary or secondary agents. This study were aim to identify and test the pathogenicity ofE. coli isolated from chicken cloacal swabs. The samples used in this study were E. coli isolated from chicken cloacal swabs as many as 42 samples.

Recovered microbiome of an oviparous lizard differs across gut and reproductive tissues, cloacal swabs, and faeces [PDF]
AbstractMicrobial diversity and community function are related, and can be highly specialized in different gut regions. The cloacal microbiome of Sceloporus virgatus females provides antifungal protection to eggshells, a specialized function that suggests a specialized microbiome. Here, we describe the cloacal, intestinal, and oviductal microbiome from

Campylobacter sp in eggs from cloacal swab positive breeder hens [PDF]
Campylobacter sp is a microaerophilic, thermotolerating Gram negative bacterium, known to be one of the main causes of food-borne human infections. Among the foods that carry these microorganisms, the chicken is outstanding. In Brazil, a large chicken exporting country, few researches are conducted about their prevalence in breeder hens and the ...

Multiple novel filamentous phages detected in the cloacal swab samples of birds using viral metagenomics approach [PDF]
AbstractMembers of the family Inoviridae (inoviruses) are characterized by their unique filamentous morphology and infection cycle. The viral genome of inovirus is able to integrate into the host genome and continuously releases virions without lysing the host, establishing chronic infection.
