Development and Field Validation of a Double‐Antigen Sandwich Colloidal Gold Immunochromatographic Strip for Detection of Toxoplasma gondii Antibodies in Multiple Host Species

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Toxoplasmosis, a globally prevalent zoonosis caused by Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), poses major threats to both human and animal health, leading to reproductive losses in livestock and severe disease in immunocompromised individuals. Although enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and PCR are widely used for diagnosis and surveillance, they may be

Detection of Porcine Circovirus 3 in Wildlife Species in Spain [PDF]

, 2020
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) is the third member of the family Circoviridae, genus Circovirus, able to infect swine. A high prevalence of viral DNA has been recorded in wild boars. Recently, PCV-3 DNA was identified in Italian wild ruminants.

A Novel In‐Cell ELISA With Superior Sensitivity and Specificity for the Detection of African Swine Fever Virus‐Specific IgM and IgG Antibodies

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
African swine fever (ASF), a high‐profile transboundary animal disease caused by ASF virus (ASFV), imposes a devastating impact on the global swine industry. Given that vaccines are still under development, including field evaluations, early detection of ASFV is crucial for effective disease control and mitigation.

Cas9‐Rep fusion tethers donor DNA in vivo and boosts the efficiency of HDR‐mediated genome editing

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 2006-2017, June 2025.
Summary Genome editing based on the homology‐directed repair (HDR) pathway enables scar‐free and precise genetic manipulations. However, the low frequency of HDR hinders its application in plant genome editing. In this study, we engineered the fusion of Cas9 and a viral replication protein (Rep) as a molecular bridge to tether donor DNA in vivo, which ...

Coinfections of African swine fever virus, porcine circovirus 2 and 3, and porcine parvovirus 1 in swine in Nigeria

, 2022
As pig production increases in Africa, it is essential to identify the pathogens that are circulating in the swine population to assess pig welfare and implement targeted control measures.

Antibiotic Therapy Does Not Alter the Humoral Response to Vaccination for Porcine Circovirus 2 in Weaned Pigs

Veterinary Sciences, 2019
Recent reports suggest that antibiotic therapy may either reduce or enhance the immune response to various porcine vaccines. Based upon these findings, we asked if antibiotic therapy alters immune cell populations, as measured by flow cytometry and/or ...

BIOHAZ scientific opinion on the equivalence of an alternative heat treatment process of feathers and down

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract The European Commission requested EFSA to provide a scientific opinion on the equivalence between the heat treatment process of feathers and down with dry heat to a temperature of 100°C for 30 min and the treatment set up in Commission Regulation (EU) No 142/2011, in terms of inactivation of relevant pathogens.

Porcine Circovirus Type 2 (PCV-2) Coinfections in US Field Cases of Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2002
The prevalence of different pathogens detected in combination with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) was studied retrospectively in field cases of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) diagnosed at the Iowa State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, Ames, Iowa, between January 2000, and September 2001.

Host immune response to infection with porcine circoviruses

Animal Diseases, 2021
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), which serves as a major causative agent of PCV2-associated diseases and causes severe loss to the pig industry worldwide, can dysregulate the immune response and induce immunosuppression in PCV2-infected pigs. Similar to
