Are rabid raccoons (Procyon lotor) ready for the rapture? Determining the geographic origin of rabies virus‐infected raccoons using RADcapture and microhaplotypes

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 1937-1955, December 2023., 2023
Abstract North America is recognized for the exceptional richness of rabies virus (RV) wildlife reservoir species. Management of RV is accomplished through vaccination targeting mesocarnivore reservoir populations, such as the raccoon (Procyon lotor) in Eastern North America.

First identification of mycobacteriosis in Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus)

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 46, Issue 5, Page 527-533, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Mycobacterium infection in fish is a well‐known disease problem globally, mainly in the farming of ornamental fish or fish for food. Less is known about the prevalence, distribution and the effects such infections have on wild fish species. Presumptive mycobacteriosis has previously been observed in Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus).

Development of a novel high resolution melting assay for identification and differentiation of all known 19 serovars of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 11, Issue 2, April 2022., 2022
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae infection is a worldwide problem in the pig industry. It is important to differentiate between the 19 serovars using an efficient molecular tool, thereby improving presently available diagnostic methods. Knowing the prevalent serovar, the right vaccines could be administered and pigs potentially carrying virulent strains
