Non-pet dogs as sentinels and potential synanthropic reservoirs of tick-borne and zoonotic bacteria
Veterinary Microbiology, 2013 Blood samples were collected from 100 shepherd dogs, 12 hunting dogs and 14 stray dogs (apparently healthy) in southern Hungary to screen for the presence of emerging tick-borne pathogens. Based on real-time PCR results, 14 dogs (11%) had single or dual haemoplasma infection, and a same number of samples were positive for Anaplasma phagocytophilum.

Predicting Novel Tick Vectors of Zoonotic Disease [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 With the resurgence of tick-borne diseases such as Lyme disease and the emergence of new pathogens such as Powassan virus, understanding what distinguishes vector from non-vector species, and predicting undiscovered tick vectors is an important step towards mitigating human disease risk.

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Research on the general public's knowledge and usage patterns of pet food, particularly regarding raw meat‐based diets (RMBDs), is limited in many countries, including Spain. Methods An anonymous cross‐sectional web‐based survey was conducted to assess the Spanish population's understanding and perceptions of RMBDs for cats and dogs.

Near real-time enumeration of live and dead bacteria using a fibre-based spectroscopic device [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 A rapid, cost-effective and easy method that allows on-site determination of the concentration of live and dead bacterial cells using a fibre-based spectroscopic device (the optrode system) is proposed and demonstrated. Identification of live and dead bacteria was achieved by using the commercially available dyes SYTO 9 and propidium iodide, and ...

Resistance in zoonotic bacteria
, 2023 In 2022, compared to 2021, the number of Campylobacter jejuni (285) and Salmonella Typhimurium (190) isolates from humans tested for antimicrobial susceptibility decreased, although the number of outbreaks increased, from three to ten for C. jejuni and from three to six for S. Typhimurium.
