Abstract:
... COVID-19 pandemic outbreak is the most astounding scene ever experienced in the XXI century. In this opinionated review, we underscore the crucial role of biosensing to handle with such situations. As a matter of fact, testing accelerates life-saving decisions on treatment and isolation of COVID-19 patients in an early stage, and thereby, decelerating or even preventing the spread of such emerging ...

Abstract:
... Chytridiomycosis, an emerging infectious disease caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), is causing sharp declines in amphibian populations around the globe. A substantial research effort has been made to study the disease, including treatments against Bd, but most treatments have been applied to captive amphibians only. We report a study aimed at clearing wild populations of the ...

In the last 10 years, many atypical novel members of Brucella species have been reported, including several Brucella inopinata‐like strains in wild‐caught and “exotic” amphibians from various continents. In 2017, a strain of Brucella was isolated for the first time in animals from a French farm producing frogs—Pelophylax ridibundus—for human consumption and identified as B. microti‐like. Following ...

PUUV disease outbreaks are usually synchronized Germany‐wide driven by beech mast‐induced irruptions of its host (bank vole, Myodes glareolus). Recent data indicate high vole abundance, high PUUV prevalence and high human incidence in summer 2019 for some regions, but elsewhere values were low to moderate. This si ...

The original CPV‐2 was replaced by three antigenic variants, CPV‐2a, CPV‐2b and CPV‐2c, which to date have gained a worldwide distribution with different relative proportions. All previous studies conducted in Africa were based on partial VP2 gene sequenc ...
