Peri‐parturient ewe mortality in commercial, southern Australian, non‐Merino ewe flocks: establishing the frequency and investigating causes

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 102, Issue 12, Page 605-615, December 2024.
Background The level and cause of ewe mortality over the peri‐parturient period is poorly understood in Australia. The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of peri‐parturient ewe mortality and investigate the causes of death in commercial, non‐Merino ewes over the peri‐parturient period.

Assessment of genetically modified maize MON 95275 (application GMFF‐2022‐5890)

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Genetically modified maize MON 95275 was developed to confer protection to certain coleopteran species. These properties were achieved by introducing the mpp75Aa1.1, vpb4Da2 and DvSnf7 expression cassettes. The molecular characterisation data and bioinformatic analyses reveal similarity to known toxins, which was further assessed.

Emerging insights into macrophage extracellular traps in bacterial infections

The FASEB Journal, Volume 38, Issue 13, 15 July 2024.
Macrophage extracellular traps (METs) are represent an intriguing defense mechanism within the immune system. These structures consist of cellular DNA, histones, and various proteins, which serve to entrap and kill pathogens, preventing their dissemination.
