Metagenomics Analysis of the Impact of Protein-Degrading Functional Microbial Agents on Composting of Chicken Manure from Cereal Hulls

Agronomy
In this study, four highly efficient protein-degrading bacteria (Siccibactercolletis, Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus sp. (in: Firmicutes)) were screened from soil and fermentation beds and prepared into a mixed microbial agent in a

Microrobotic Catheterization of the Ophthalmic Artery for Targeted Treatment of Retinoblastoma

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A microrobotic platform is presented that allows teleoperated and autonomous navigation of flow‐driven magnetic microcatheters, MagFlow, into the ophthalmic artery for superselective intra‐arterial infusion of chemotherapy to treat retinoblastoma. Extensive benchtop validations with patient‐derived biomimetic phantoms under optical and fluoroscopic ...

Immune response induced by a Streptococcus suis multi-serotype autogenous vaccine used in sows to protect post-weaned piglets

Veterinary Research
Streptococcus suis is a bacterial pathogen that causes important economic losses to the swine industry worldwide. Since there are no current commercial vaccines, the use of autogenous vaccines applied to gilts/sows to enhance transfer of passive immunity

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

Recognition of Lipoproteins by Toll-like Receptor 2 and DNA by the AIM2 Inflammasome Is Responsible for Production of Interleukin-1β by Virulent Suilysin-Negative Streptococcus suis Serotype 2

Pathogens, 2020
Streptococcus suis serotype 2 is an important porcine bacterial pathogen and zoonotic agent causing sudden death, septic shock and meningitis. These pathologies are the consequence of an exacerbated inflammatory response composed of various mediators ...

Establishment of Interspecies Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer and Transgene‐Free Inducible Pluripotent Stem Cells for Versatile Conservation of the Germplasm Resource of Wild Boar

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Conserving genetic material and even increasing genetic diversity is critical. To conduct the conservation of wild boar germplasm resources, we have successfully obtained healthy cloned wild boars for the first time using interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer and established transgene‐free iPSCs that can be used to conduct iterative rounds of gene

The contribution of integrated and non-integrated pig farms to epidemiological dynamics of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in Italy

Scientific Reports
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is a global challenge for swine production. Due to its high variability and limited cross-protection, immune-based control measures are only partially effective, emphasizing the critical role of ...
