Causal analysis of trade loss from pathogens: A global study of foot and mouth disease impacts on meat exports

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

Pathogenicity and transmission of a swine influenza A(H6N6) virus [PDF]

Emerging Microbes & Infections, 2017
Subtype H6 influenza A viruses (IAVs) are commonly detected in wild birds and domestic poultry and can infect humans. In 2010, a H6N6 virus emerged in southern China, and since then, it has caused sporadic infections among swine. We show that this virus binds to α2,6-linked and α2,3-linked sialic acids. Mutations at residues 222 (alanine to valine) and

Risk management externalities in agrifood supply chains

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Firms may under‐ or over‐invest in risk management from the social planner's perspective, resulting in a negative externality on other economic agents in the supply chain. The externality of risk management is particularly relevant for agrifood supply chains, which frequently experience disruptions and play a primary role in preventing major ...

Novel reassortant of H1N1 swine influenza virus detected in pig population in Russia

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2019
Pigs play an important role in interspecies transmission of the influenza virus, particularly as “mixing vessels” for reassortment. Two influenza A/H1N1 virus strains, A/swine/Siberia/1sw/2016 and A/swine/Siberia/4sw/2017, were isolated during a ...

Ferritin as a Nanoparticle Scaffold for Plant‐Produced Next‐Generation Subunit Vaccines

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein nanoparticles offer an innovative approach to next‐generation subunit vaccine development by displaying antigenic sequences on the nanoparticle surface. Compared to traditional subunit vaccines, protein nanoparticle vaccines often show improved interaction with the immune system due to their particulate size and repetitive epitope ...

Metal nanostructure‐coupled label‐free localized surface plasmon resonance biosensors for rapid and sensitive disease diagnosis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
LSPR biosensing enables rapid, sensitive, and low‐sample‐volume detection of biomarkers, with broad applications in diagnosing cancer, infectious, and chronic diseases. Advances in nanostructure design, micro/nanofabrication, and microfluidic integration have expanded the potential of LSPR sensors in biomedical diagnostics.

Origin and Evolution of H1N1/pdm2009: A Codon Usage Perspective

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The H1N1/pdm2009 virus is a new triple-reassortant virus. While Eurasian avian-like and triple-reassortant swine influenza viruses are the direct ancestors of H1N1/pdm2009, the classic swine influenza virus facilitate the spectrum of influenza A ...

THE SWINE LUNGWORM AS A RESERVOIR AND INTERMEDIATE HOST FOR SWINE INFLUENZA VIRUS [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1941
1. During a 3 year study of the lungworm as intermediate host for the swine influenza virus 98 transmission experiments, using 216 swine, have been conducted. Of these, 50 gave negative results. In the remaining 48, transmission of swine influenza virus by way of the lungworm was demonstrated in one or more animals of each experiment. Irregularities in
