- Abstract:
- ... Emergence of antimicrobial resistance among bovine mastitis pathogens is the major cause of frequent therapeutic failure and a cause of concern for veterinary practitioners. This study describes intra-mammary infection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli in ...

- Abstract:
- ... Background: Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) is a major contributor to bovine respiratory disease complex in dairy and beef calves, especially during the first year of life. There is a lack of comprehensive information about the prevalence of infection in cattle herds in Poland as well as in European countries outside the European Union. Objective: The aim of this study was to estimate th ...

- Abstract:
- ... Background : Weaning is a crucial period in the management of lambs, resulting in physiological and mental challenges, that may have prolonged effects on lamb's health and welfare. Hypothesis/Objectives : To evaluate the effect of weaning on total and free triiodothyronine (T ₃, fT ₃) and thyroxine (T ₄, fT ₄) concentrations in serum of lambs by enzyme immunoassay. Animal and methods : The study w ...

- Abstract:
- ... Background: The previous work on canine babesiosis revealed hypokalaemia and increased fractional excretion of potassium in infected dogs suggesting a role for aldosterone in the loss of potassium via the kidneys in affected dogs. Moreover, hypotension, which is one of the complications of canine babesiosis leading to renal failure, may induce secondary hyperaldosteronism. Animals and methods: In ...

- Abstract:

The genomic characterization of P. larvae strains by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus–polymerase chain reaction (ERIC–PCR) is able to differentiate four genotypes (ERIC I, ERIC II, ERIC III, ERIC IV). The information on the presence of ...

Background: Assessment of the prognostic indicators of wildlife casualties is critical in wildlife rehabilitation practice, to optimize the use of economical resources, and to protect animal welfare. Few studies have been conducted in this field. Objective: To identify the prognostic indicators associated with raptor mortality during the first week of hospitalization. Animals and methods: Complete ...

Background: The role of wildlife in the epidemiology of leishmaniosis in under debate, and determining whether infection with Leishmania infantum causes illness in wild carnivores is important to determine its potential role as a reservoir. Objectives: To provide for the first time serum biochemistry reference values for the common genet (Genetta genetta), and to determine variations associated wi ...

- Abstract:
- ... Background: Coccidiosis is an important parasitic disease of chickens, causing high mortality and morbidity. This morbidity is believed to be correlated with altered population dynamics of blood cells and immunocompromisation. Objectives: This study investigated the effects of mixed Eimeria species (viz., tenella , maxima , acervulina and necatrix) infection on hematology and immune responses foll ...
