ABSTRACT Background To date, no studies have reported the evaluation of hemostatic activity in canine leukoreduced cryoprecipitate (LR‐CRYO) and leukoreduced cryopoor plasma (LR‐CPP). Objectives We aimed to compare the hemostatic activity of LR‐CRYO and LR‐CPP to leukoreduced fresh plasma (LR‐FP) and to evaluate the preservation of LR‐CRYO by ...

Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Development of a duplex real-time PCR for the detection of Rickettsia spp. and typhus group rickettsia in clinical samples. [PDF]
Molecular diagnosis using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) may allow earlier diagnosis of rickettsiosis. We developed a duplex real-time PCR that amplifies (1) DNA of any rickettsial species and (2) DNA of both typhus group rickettsia, that is ...
