Exploring the evidence base for national and regional policy interventions to combat resistance (2016)
Journal Article
Dar, F. K., Littmann, J., Rweyemamu, M., Buckley, E. J., Shahid, M., Kock, R. A., …Heymann, D. L. (2016). Exploring the evidence base for national and regional policy interventions to combat resistance. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736%2815%2900520-6

The effectiveness of existing policies to control antimicrobial resistance is not yet fully understood. A strengthened evidence base is needed to inform effective policy interventions across countries with different income levels and the human health...

Diagnosis of tuberculosis in groups of badgers: an exploration of the impact of trapping efficiency, infection prevalence and the use of multiple tests (2016)
Journal Article
Buzdugan, S. N., Chambers, M. A., Delahay, R. J., & Drewe, J. A. (2016). Diagnosis of tuberculosis in groups of badgers: an exploration of the impact of trapping efficiency, infection prevalence and the use of multiple tests. Epidemiology and Infection, 144(8), 1717-1727. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0950268815003210

Accurate detection of infection with Mycobacterium bovis in live badgers would enable targeted tuberculosis control. Practical challenges in sampling wild badger populations mean that diagnosis of infection at the group (rather than the individual) l...

Detection of viable Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis in powdered infant formula by phage-PCR and confirmed by culture (2016)
Journal Article
Botsaris, G., Swift, B. M. C., Slana, I., Liapi, M., Christodoulou, M., Hatzitofi, M., …Rees, C. E. (2016). Detection of viable Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis in powdered infant formula by phage-PCR and confirmed by culture. International Journal of Food Microbiology, 216, 91-4. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2015.09.011

Surveys from different parts of the world have reported that viable Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) can be cultured from approximately 2% of samples of retail pasteurised milk samples. Pasteurised milk is used for the production of...

A method for isolating and culturing placental cells from failed early equine pregnancies (2016)
Journal Article
Rose, B. V., Cabrera-Sharp, V., Firth, M. J., Barrelet, F. E., Bate, S., Cameron, I. J., …De Mestre, A. M. (2016). A method for isolating and culturing placental cells from failed early equine pregnancies. Placenta, 38, 107-111. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.placenta.2015.12.014

Early pregnancy loss occurs in 6–10% of equine pregnancies making it the main cause of reproductive wastage. Despite this, reasons for the losses are known in only 16% of cases. Lack of viable conceptus material has inhibited investigations of many p... Read More about A method for isolating and culturing placental cells from failed early equine pregnancies.
