Mucopolysaccharidosis IIID and Beta-Mannosidosis in Brazilian Anglo-Nubian Goats: Molecular and Genealogical Insights for the Development and Implementation of a Genetic Disease Eradication Program. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Beta mannosidosis and Mucopolysaccharidosis IIID are two autosomal recessive lysosomal storage diseases identified in Anglo‐Nubian goats. Even though they are well characterized from the clinical and molecular point of view, there is a gap in studies aiming to understand distribution and dissemination risk in goat populations throughout the ...

Resistance reversion after Haemonchus contortus replacement in a sheep flock: monitoring of benzimidazole and levamisole resistance-associated polymorphisms and impact on lamb survival [PDF]
Background Haemonchus contortus is a highly prevalent gastrointestinal nematode whose control is hindered by anthelmintic resistance. Worm replacement (WR), where a resistant parasite population is substituted for a susceptible one, was performed through

Contribution of Fat Adjustment to Residual Feed Intake Estimation in Beef Cattle. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Including fat thickness as a covariate in the regression model used to calculate residual feed intake (RFI) could help preserve carcass quality traits, such as marbling, flavour and juiciness, by accounting for variation in fat deposition.

Milk Kefir Beverage Improves Histomorphometry, Reduces Inflammatory Infiltrates and Desulfovibrio and Increases Lactobacillus in IL-10<sup>-/-</sup> Mice. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the effects of milk kefir on parameters related to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in interleukin‐10 knockout (IL‐10−/−) mice. Sixteen C57BL/6J IL‐10−/− male mice were divided into two experimental groups. The control group (n = 8) received 0.4 mL of whole milk (UHT) and the kefir group (n = 8) received 0.4 mL of ...

Emergence, spread, and impact of high-pathogenicity avian influenza H5 in wild birds and mammals of South America and Antarctica. [PDF]
Abstract The currently circulating high‐pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus of the subtype H5 causes variable illness and death in wild and domestic birds and mammals, as well as in humans. This virus evolved from the Goose/Guangdong lineage of the HPAI H5 virus, which emerged in commercial poultry in China in 1996, spilled over into wild birds,
