Canine respiratory coronavirus employs caveolin-1-mediated pathway for internalization to HRT-18G cells (2018)
Journal Article
Szczepanski, A., Owczarek, K., Milewska, A., Baster, Z., Rajfur, Z., Mitchell, J. A., & Pyrc, K. (2018). Canine respiratory coronavirus employs caveolin-1-mediated pathway for internalization to HRT-18G cells. Veterinary Research, 49, 55. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13567-018-0551-9

Canine respiratory coronavirus (CRCoV), identified in 2003, is a member of the Coronaviridae family. The virus is a betacoronavirus and a close relative of human coronavirus OC43 and bovine coronavirus. Here, we examined entry of CRCoV into human rec...

Avian mite dermatitis: Diagnostic challenges and unmet needs (2018)
Journal Article
Kavallari, A., Kuester, T., Papadopoulos, E., Hondema, L. S., Øines, Ø., Skov, J., Sparagano, O., & Tiligada, E. (2018). Avian mite dermatitis: Diagnostic challenges and unmet needs. Parasite Immunology, 40(8), e12539. https://doi.org/10.1111/pim.12539

The avian mite Dermanyssus gallinae (poultry red mite, PRM) is of major economic and veterinary importance for the poultry and egg industry worldwide. The accumulating reports on the opportunistic nonavian feeding of D. gallinae raise concerns on PRM... Read More about Avian mite dermatitis: Diagnostic challenges and unmet needs.

Evaluation of pigeon egg yolk for post thaw quality, enzyme leakage and fertility of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bull spermatozoa (2018)
Journal Article
Akhter, S., Rakha, B. A., Ansari, M. S., Iqbal, S., & Khalid, M. (2018). Evaluation of pigeon egg yolk for post thaw quality, enzyme leakage and fertility of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bull spermatozoa. Theriogenology, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.theriogenology.2018.06.019

Egg yolk is used as a cryoprotectant in semen preservation. However, its composition varies according to the species which may influence its effectiveness during the freeze-thaw process. Therefore, study was conducted to identify the optimum level of...

Integrated food safety and nutrition assessments in the dairy cattle value chain in Tanzania (2018)
Journal Article
Haesler, B., Msalya, G., Garza, M., Fornace, K. M., El Tholth, M., Kurwijila, L., Rushton, J., & Grace, D. (2018). Integrated food safety and nutrition assessments in the dairy cattle value chain in Tanzania. Global Food Security, 18, 102-113. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gfs.2018.05.003

The consumption of even small amounts of animal-source foods has the potential to improve nutrition, especially in vulnerable households. However, scaling up their production bears food safety risks that are often overlooked due to a disconnect betwe...
