Mathematical Models and Their Applications in Understanding the Dynamics of Infectious Diseases
Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Infectious diseases pose a persistent global challenge due to their complex transmission dynamics influenced by pathogen evolution, contact patterns, and host interactions. This study reviews how mathematical models have been developed to represent and predict disease spread using differential equations and network frameworks. Compartmental models such

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 ...
