Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) genotype update and proposal of a new genotyping methodology. [PDF]
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) is one of the most widespread viral infections of swine, causing a remarkable economic impact because of direct losses and indirect costs for its control.

Three different genotypes of porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) identified in pigs and warthogs in Namibia
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) is the causative agent of porcine circovirus diseases (PCVD). A study was undertaken to determine whether PCV-2 was present in samples collected from commercial pigs (n = 46) and warthogs (n = 42) in Namibia between 2019 and ...

2D Vermiculite Nanosheets Encapsulated in Hydrogel Electrolyte for Shuttle-Free and Dendrite-Inhibited Zinc-Iodine Batteries. [PDF]
A dual‐network hydrogel was prepared via a one‐pot method, incorporating vermiculite nanosheets as an additive. The negatively charged vermiculite nanosheets not only coordinate with zinc ions to facilitate Zn plating/stripping and suppress Zn dendrite growth, but also adsorb polyiodides to inhibit the shuttle effect, which significantly improves the ...

Pneumococcal antibody concentrations and carriage of pneumococci more than 3 years after infant immunization with a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A 9-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV-9), given in a 3-dose schedule, protected Gambian children against pneumococcal disease and reduced nasopharyngeal carriage of pneumococci of vaccine serotypes.

Comparison of three enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays to detect Porcine circovirus-2 (PCV-2)-specific antibodies after vaccination or inoculation of pigs with distinct PCV-1 or PCV-2 isolates [PDF]
Porcine circovirus-2 (PCV-2) serology is frequently used to determine PCV-2 status and optimal timing of PCV-2 vaccination in the field. The objectives of the current study are to determine the diagnostic accuracy of 3 currently available commercial anti-

Modification of PCV-2 virulence by substitution of the genogroup motif of the capsid protein [PDF]
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) is the causal agent of the post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). PCV-2 are small single-stranded circular DNA viruses clustered into two main genogroups: PCV-2a and PCV-2b. Each genogroup present a specific

Abstract Nineteenth century excavations of the Ciply‐Malogne Phosphatic Chalk Formation in Hainaut, Belgium, yielded over 50 partial mosasaur skeletons, the majority of which were referred to the species Mosasaurus lemonnieri Dollo, 1889. In the years since, this taxon has experienced a complicated taxonomic history, and its exceptional hypodigm has ...
