Recombinant LPG3 Protein From Leishmania chagasi as an Antigen for the Diagnosis of Canine Visceral Leishmaniasis

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a human neglected tropical disease in which dogs participate as reservoirs of the etiological agent Leishmania chagasi. The identification of infected dogs is important to the control of VL, and recombinant proteins are strong antigen candidates for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) serodiagnosis. In this work,

Serotype Characterization and Transmission Modelling of Foot‐and‐Mouth Disease in Dairy Farms, Bishoftu, Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
FMD outbreaks in dairy farms in Bishoftu were characterized by rapid within‐farm transmission (R0 = 3.7) and predominance of the SAT‐2 serotype. Current trivalent vaccination alone was insufficient for control, highlighting the need for improved vaccine matching and strengthened biosecurity measures . ABSTRACT Background Foot‐and‐mouth disease (FMD) is
