Comparison of Fluorescent Antibody and Microscopic Agglutination Testing for Leptospira in Pregnant and Nonpregnant Cows [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2010 Serum and urine samples from 30 cows (15 pregnant and 15 nonpregnant) from each of 10 Georgia dairy herds (total cows = 300) were examined by microscopic agglutination testing (MAT) and direct fluorescent antibody testing (FAT), respectively. Seven of the 10 herds had at least 1 cow with a positive FAT, and all of the herds had at least 1 cow with a ...

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 856-865, August 2026.ABSTRACT Background Inherited platelet disorders (IPDs) are rare hematologic conditions encompassing a heterogeneous spectrum of quantitative and qualitative platelet defects, frequently associated with variable clinical phenotypes and comorbidities. Accurate diagnosis necessitates comprehensive genetic characterization, detailed clinical and bleeding ...

Studies on the microscopic slide-agglutination test for Q fever.
Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 2010 The author has devised a micro-agglutination test for the sero-diagnosis of Q fever. Preliminary studies had already indicated that it was highly sensitive, and this has now been confirmed. Using the sera of sheep infected with Q fever, the microscopic slide-agglutination test was found to be approximately 10 times as sensitive as the capillary ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Application of Microbial and Parasitology Techniques for Diagnosis in Laboratory Rodents
Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Pathogen diagnosis in rodents through effective health monitoring programs is essential for maintaining high welfare and standards in laboratory animal facilities. Although many animal facilities are increasingly adopting real‐time polymerase chain reaction testing of environmental or filter samples for pathogen detection, thereby reducing the

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.A mitochondria‐targeted copper depletion nanoplatform (CYN‐CDA@Alb) was developed to selectively disrupt tumor mitochondria copper, which then reprogrammed the tumor immune microenvironment by depressing PD‐L1 and CD47 expression simultaneously. By doing this, CYN‐CDA@Alb reversed radiotherapy‐induced immune tolerance, showing the potential usage of ...

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.Thinned apple polyphenols (TAP) extract reduced ferroptosis in acute and chronic lung injuries. TAP activated Nrf2 and modulated key biomarkers (MDA, NOX4, GPX4, FTH1), leading to decreased inflammation and fibrosis. These findings suggest TAP as a potential therapeutic approach for lung injury through ferroptosis regulation. ABSTRACT Acute and chronic
