Sensitive and specific serodiagnosis of Leishmania infantum infection in dogs by using peptides selected from hypothetical proteins identified by an immunoproteomic approach [PDF]
In Brazil, the percentage of infected dogs living in areas where canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) is endemic ranges from 10 to 62%; however, the prevalence of infection in dogs is probably higher than figures reported from serological studies.

Development and validation of a recombinant capsid protein-based indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for serological detection of duck circovirus in commercial flocks [PDF]
Background and Aim: Duck circovirus (DuCV) is an immunosuppressive pathogen linked to poor growth, feather abnormalities, and increased susceptibility to co-infections, leading to significant economic losses in duck production.

Serodiagnosis of fasciolosis by fast protein liquid chromatography-fractionated excretory/secretory antigens [PDF]
In several studies, different antigenic preparations and diverse immunological tests were applied for serodiagnosis of Fasciola hepatica infections. Most of these preparations showed cross-reactivity with proteins of other parasites.

Environmental monitoring of Mycobacterium bovis in badger feces and badger sett soil by real-time PCR, as confirmed by immunofluorescence, immunocapture, and cultivation [PDF]
Real-time PCR was used to detect and quantify Mycobacterium bovis cells in naturally infected soil and badger faeces. Immunomagnetic capture, immunofluorescence and selective culture confirmed species identification and cell viability.

ABSTRACT Prior research has documented treponematosis at a single site in Mainland Southeast Asia from northern Vietnam dated to the early agricultural transition (~4000–3500 bp). To date, no other cases in Southeast Asia's prehistory have been identified.

Characterization of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense variant surface glycoprotein LiTat 1.5 [PDF]
At present, all available diagnostic antibody detection tests for Trypanosoma brucei gambiense human African trypanosomiasis are based on predominant variant surface glycoproteins (VSGs), such as VSG LiTat 1.5. During investigations aiming at replacement
