Nanoparticles as an Alternative Strategy for the Rapid Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex (MTBC): A Systematic Literature Review of In Vitro Studies

IET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Worldwide, tuberculosis (TB) ranks as a second leading cause of death. The End TB strategy targets eliminating TB by 2030. Achieving this goal requires an early, accurate, and affordable diagnosis applicable in low‐ and middle‐income countries; increasing the reach of point‐of‐care (POC) diagnostics is essential.

Sequence variants associated with resilient responses in growing pigs

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 1, Page 79-91, January 2025.
Abstract The current work aimed to identify genomic regions and candidate genes associated with resilience in pigs. In previous work, we proposed the body weight deviation from the expected growth curve (ΔBW) and the increase of the positive acute‐phase protein haptoglobin (ΔHP) after a vaccine challenge as resilience indicators which may be improved ...

Monitoring Pathogens in Free‐Living Large Herbivores in a Nature Reserve in the Netherlands

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Monitoring and surveillance of pathogens are crucial for safeguarding animal and public health. While passive surveillance is more common for wild and free‐living animals, active monitoring improves the detection and characterisation of specific pathogens relevant to animal and public health.

Risks of foodborne pathogens associated with animal contamination of raw‐agricultural commodities: A review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 6, November 2024.
Abstract Pathogens that cause foodborne illness can contaminate raw‐agricultural produce via animal intrusion and defecation in production fields. The Food and Drug Administration's Produce Safety Rule and related guidance cite published research on animal intrusion risk and risk‐reduction practices.

Evaluation of biogas production and bacterial load from co‐digestion of chicken manure with different types of household waste

JSFA reports, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 235-242, May 2024.
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the biogas production of chicken manure (CM) co‐digestion with different types of household waste (soft organic [SO] and food waste [FW]), as well as to evaluate the bacterial load of feeding stock and digested slurry samples before and after anaerobic digestion (AD).

Serosurvey and Associated Risk Factors for Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Infection in Dromedary Camels in Egypt

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is a disease that affects ruminants globally, including camels, and causing significant financial losses. The epidemiology of BVD in camels in Egypt are not well understood. Thus, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of anti‐BVD virus (BVDV) antibodies in camels and identify the potential variables associated with ...

Preparation and Biological Properties of Ring-Substituted Naphthalene-1-Carboxanilides

Molecules, 2014
In this study, a series of twenty-two ring-substituted naphthalene-1-carboxanilides were prepared and characterized. Primary in vitro screening of the synthesized carboxanilides was performed against Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis.
