Relevance of the variability of the feline immunodeficiency virus in regard to pathogenicity and vaccination in New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Animal Science, Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2018
Cats infected with the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) show a range of clinical signs. Given the variability of the FIV genome, it is possible that there is variation in certain biological characteristics of FIV, such as pathogenicity.

Integrated X‐Ray, Gamma Radiation, and Micro‐CT Techniques for Quantitative Wood Characterization

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present research integrates microcomputed tomography (micro‐CT), x‐ray fluorescence, and gamma‐ray transmission to quantitatively characterize wood species. A total of 22 samples from seven species were analyzed for density (ρ), linear attenuation coefficient (μ), Compton scattering, micro‐CT gray values (GV), porosity, mass attenuation ...

Integration of Micro‐CT and XRF Mapping for Multimodal 3D Analysis of Polychrome Wooden Artifacts

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past 5 years, computer applications have become crucial to archeological research. Since the 1990s, the focus has transitioned from data management tools to the development of virtual models. Recently, digital documentation of cultural heritage has gained considerable focus, with 3D modeling of objects.

Relationships Between European Wildcats and Domestic Cats in an Area of Sympatry: Exploring Key Conservation Questions on Hybridization and Disease Transmission

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

The benefits of multidisciplinary collaboration in the successful management of two complex feline cases

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Despite a frequent misconception that behavioural concerns are diagnoses of exclusion, medical conditions and behavioural disorders are frequently inter‐related. In human medicine, the ‘multidisciplinary team’ approach (MDTA) is considered the most efficacious way of managing patients with complex and chronic health conditions.
