Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Milk and milk products are important sources of nutrients to human and animals, but due to its physicochemical characteristics and nutritional value, it serves as an excellent medium for growth of microorganisms. Most of smallholder dairy farmers have no training on livestock husbandry and milk handling practices.

Secretion of proteins by Coxiella burnetii [PDF]
Microbiology, 1995 Viable Coxiella burnetii organisms were isolated from the culture medium of persistently infected Baby Hamster Kidney (BHK-21) fibroblasts. When these organisms were incubated in host-cell-free medium at low pH, some of the de novo-synthesized protein made by the bacteria was translocated to the exterior of the cell. The exported protein was detectable

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Q Fever in Smallholder Dairy Farms in Kenya
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Serological and molecular screening revealed widespread exposure to Coxiella burnetii in dairy cattle, linked to reproductive and herd management risk factors. Strengthened surveillance and herd‐level biosecurity are critical to reducing Q fever transmission. ABSTRACT Background Q fever is a neglected zoonotic disease of global concern.

Hydrological seasonality shapes microbial biomass and diversity in an equatorial estuarine mangrove
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Mangroves are pantropical marine forests rooted in soft sediments and subject to pronounced seasonal variability. However, the effects of these hydrological fluctuations on root‐associated prokaryotic communities remain poorly understood, particularly in underexplored regions like the Guianas.

Permeability of Coxiella burnetii to ribonucleosides [PDF]
Microbiology, 2002 Knowledge about transport in Coxiella burnetii, an obligate phagolysosomal parasite, is incomplete. The authors investigated the capability of isolated, intact, host-free Coxiella to transport ribonucleosides while incubated at a pH value typical of lysosomes.

Tick‐Tac‐Foe: When Ticks, Trade, and Zoonotic Pathogens Align in African Wet Meat Markets
Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases account for over ∼60% of infectious diseases and present a significantly growing fatality threat in Africa. Live and wet markets (LWMs) in Africa function as key economic venues that support human livelihoods through social interaction and trade in food stuff, including meat and other animal‐based products.
