Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 26, 30 March 2026.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Recent Advances in Lateral Flow Immunoassay for Rapid Diagnosis of Viral Diseases

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Viral diseases are a major threat to human and animal health, as illustrated by recent pandemics like COVID‐19 and African swine fever (ASF). Timely, accurate detection of viral infections is critical for effective disease control. Among diverse diagnostic techniques, lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) has become a widely used on‐site testing tool, owing ...

A study of the incubation period, or age at onset, of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies/prion diseases. [PDF]

In order to model epidemics of infectious diseases, particularly to estimate probable numbers of cases with onset at any particular time, it is necessaiy to incorporate a term for the incubation period frequency distribution. Sartwell's hypothesis states

Serological and Molecular Detection of Toxoplasma gondii Among Slaughtered Domestic Ruminants in Gondar Town, Northwest Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT The overall positive findings of this T. gondi in slaughtered animals were 56.2% for serological tests, 21.2% for the first PCR and 10.6% for nested PCR. These comparative tests confirmed the presence of this disease in slaughtered animals. ABSTRACT Background Toxoplasma gondii is a globally prevalent zoonotic protozoan parasite that

Eight-year observation and comparative study of specific pathogen-free cats experimentally infected with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) subtypes A and B: terminal acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in a cat infected with FIV petaluma strain.

The Journal of veterinary medical science, 1998
Three specific pathogen-free cats experimentally infected with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) strains Petaluma, TM1 and TM2, respectively were observed for over 8 years. Without showing any significant clinical signs of immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) for 8 years and 4 months of asymptomatic phase, the Petaluma-infected cat exhibited severe ...

Practical Application of Disease Risk Assessment in Native Species Reintroductions: A Case Study of a European Wildcat (Felis silvestris) Population Reinforcement in the Cairngorms National Park

Mammal Review, Volume 55, Issue 4, October 2025.
Disease risk assessment was conducted for the Saving Wildcats reintroduction project of captive‐bred European Wildcats (Felis silvestris) to the Cairngorms National Park. Hazards were identified, and appropriate pre‐and post‐release mitigation strategies were identified and implemented, illustrating the direct conservation application and significance ...

Enhanced expression of novel CD57+CD8+ LAK cells from cats infected with feline immunodeficiency virus

, 1995
As a model for lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) function in HIV infection, we studied LAK cells in cats infected with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), which causes an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells cultured in

The Etiopathogenesis of Kawasaki Disease: Evolving Understanding of Diverse Triggers

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Kawasaki disease (KD) is a leading cause of acquired heart disease in children. Evidence suggests that microbial and nonmicrobial triggers for KD differ across geographical regions and environmental conditions. Although the precise triggers remain unidentified, KD is likely caused by microbial or environmental agents acting on ...
