Based on the present systematic review and meta‑analysis, the pooled prevalence of N. caninum in camelids was 10% (95% CI: 7%–12%) with significant heterogeneity (I2 = 93.75%, p < 0.0001). The highest rate was detected in Old World camelids, 14% (95% CI: 10%–19%), indicating that this group is more susceptible to N. caninum exposure.

Production, Preservation, and Transfer of South American Camelid Embryos [PDF]
La présente revue résume les progrès réalisés dans le domaine de la production in vitro et in vivo d'embryons de camélidés d'Amérique du Sud. Les deux méthodes nécessitent une superstimulation ovarienne (avec FSH et eCG) pour obtenir des ovulations multiples (production d'embryons in vivo) ou pour induire la croissance folliculaire pour la collecte d ...

A framework for capturing indirect impacts in site‐level screening for biodiversity risks
Abstract Site‐based industrial operations such as mining, oil and gas extraction and renewable energy development are associated with many direct and indirect impacts on biodiversity. Consideration of the full range of these impacts when selecting a buffer distance to approximate the Area of Influence (AoI) of a project is critical for effective ...
