Swine vesicular disease: pathways of infection [PDF]
Journal of Hygiene, 1980 SUMMARYThe pathways of infection in swine vesicular disease have been studied by (i) an estimation of the amounts of virus required to produce infection by different artificial inoculation procedures; (ii) the distribution and amounts of virus in various tissues of pigs killed at intervals after contact infection; (iii) an investigation of the ...

Multiple Sampling Capsule Robot for Studying Gut Microbiome
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A multiple sampling capsule robot (MSCR) is developed for longitudinal gut microbiome analysis. Employing electromagnetic field control, the MSCR can locomote actively, precisely align the selected channel, and collect up to six microbiome samples with minimal cross‐contamination.

Personalized Kirigami Strain Sensors for in vivo Applications
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Rapid prototyping of strain sensors is demonstrated using a laser cutter that both converts carbon‐based material to strain responsible graphene and generates cuts in a kirigami‐style pattern that allows enhanced substrate flexibility. This method is used to generate wearable sensors for monitoring heart rate, limb/finger motion, and abdominal ...

Within- and between-pen transmission of Classical Swine Fever Virus: a new method to estimate the basic reproduction ratio from transmission experiments [PDF]
, 2002 We present a method to estimate basic reproduction ratio R0 from transmission experiments. By using previously published data of experiments with Classical Swine Fever Virus more extensively, we obtained smaller confidence intervals than the martingale ...

Long‐term immunosuppression of rabbits through oral tacrolimus administration
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Oral gavage of rabbits with 1.5 mg/kg/d of tacrolimus allows for an efficient long‐term (1 year) immunosuppression with minimal side effects and no loss of animals. lmmunosuppressed rabbits are a convenient animal model to investigate the long‐term efficacy of human allografts in vivo.

The Vietnamese swine as a translational model of invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.The flow diagram outlines the chemical induction of breast tumors through a single intraperitoneal dose of MNU. Tumor development was assessed using ultrasound and clinical examination. After 14 weeks, mammary tissue was collected and histologically analyzed to evaluate structural similarities between sows and humans, the carcinogenic potential of MNU,
