Specific, simple and rapid detection of porcine circovirus type 2 using the loop-mediated isothermal amplification method

Virology Journal, 2011
Background Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the causative agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS), and porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome (PDNS). It has caused heavy losses in global agriculture in recent decades.

Mesonet‐Based Ground Validation of IMERG‐V07 and GSMaP‐V08 Over a Semi‐Arid Dryland Ecosystem in West Texas

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract Climate change has caused highly uncertain precipitation regimes and associated hydrometeorological hazards over global drylands. Accurate precipitation measurements are vital for monitoring dryland ecohydrology. Satellite precipitation products (SPPs), including the Integrated Multi‐satellitE Retrievals for GPM (Global Precipitation ...

Estimation of Land Surface Temperature through Blending MODIS and AMSR-E Data with the Bayesian Maximum Entropy Method

Remote Sensing, 2016
Land surface temperature (LST) plays a major role in the study of surface energy balances. Remote sensing techniques provide ways to monitor LST at large scales.

Global gene expression profiling of myeloid immune cell subsets in response to in vitro challenge with porcine circovirus 2b.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Compelling evidence suggests that the early interaction between porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2) and the innate immune system is the key event in the pathogenesis of Post-Weaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS).

Quantitative Evaluation and Error Analysis of GPM DPR Rainfall Products (Version 07) Over Yangtze‐and‐Huai River Basin in China

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The Dual‐Frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) aboard the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) core satellite has advanced global precipitation monitoring with consistent long‐term data. This study evaluates the rainfall rate from GPM DPR version 07 Level‐2 products over the Yangtze‐and‐Huai River Basin with rain gauge observations.

Global Status of Porcine circovirus Type 2 and Its Associated Diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa

Advances in Virology, 2017
Globally, Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is a recognized viral pathogen of great economic value in pig farming. It is the major cause of ravaging postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) and many other disease syndromes generally regarded as ...

Temperature‐Modulated Threshold Response in a Volatile Memristor: Toward a Biomimetic Polymodal Nociceptive System

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 45, 5 June 2026.
This study demonstrates an artificial polymodal nociceptor whose firing threshold is actively modulated by temperature. A volatile TiN/TiOx/ZnO/TiOx/ITO memristor shows interfacial ion–driven resistive switching and membrane‐potential‐like dynamics, enabling temperature‐dependent nociceptive behavior.

PCV2-DNA in formalin-fixed and paraffin embedded lymph nodes of wild boar (Sus scrofa ssp. scrofa): one sampling approach for two laboratory techniques

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2012
Superficial inguinal lymph nodes from 72 wild boars examined in a previous immunohistochemical (IHC) study on porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) were selected for a PCV2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis.

Physically Consistent Synthesis of Tropical Cyclone Microwave Brightness Temperatures From Geostationary Infrared Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Analyzing the evolution of Tropical Cyclones (TCs) is critical for understanding their structure and intensity, but it has been limited by observational constraints. Spaceborne passive microwave (PMW) observations can penetrate both non‐precipitating and precipitating clouds and provide information on the vertical distribution of hydrometeors ...

Diagnosis of post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs in Brazil caused by porcine circovirus type 2

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2003
This report describes the first preliminary characterization of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) isolates from pigs affected with post-weaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in Brazil. Diseased pigs were examined at necropsy and by histopathology.
