Evaluation of the sensitivity and specificity of three diagnostic tests for Coxiella burnetii infection in cattle and buffaloes in Punjab (India) using Bayesian latent class analysis
(2022)Q Fever is a zoonotic disease of significant animal and public health concern, caused by Coxiella burnetii (C. burnetii), an obligate intracellular bacterium. This study was done to evaluate the diagnostic sensitivity (DSe) ... -
The feasibility and acceptability of various bovine brucellosis control strategies in India
(2021)Bovine brucellosis is a neglected zoonotic disease prevalent in several developing countries including India. It has been successfully controlled in many developed countries by using vaccination in conjunction with extensive ... -
Ghrelin suppresses the GnRH-induced preovulatory gonadotropin surge in dairy heifers
(2016)Ghrelin, a known growth hormone (GH) secretagogue, alters gonadotropin secretion in many species. Our objectives were to study the effects of ghrelin, on GH, LH, FSH secretion, and on luteal function of the ensuing estrous ... -
Heat shock protein 70 improves in vitro embryo yield and quality from heat stressed bovine oocytes
(2021)Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is a chaperon that stabilizes unfolded or partially folded proteins, preventing inappropriate inter-and intramolecular interactions. Here, we examined the developmental competence of in vitro ... -
Identification of Brucella spp. isolates and discrimination from the vaccine strain Rev.1 by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry
(2020)Brucellosis' surveillance and control programs require robust laboratory techniques that can reliably identify and biotype Brucella strains and discriminate between vaccine and field infection. In the recent years, Matrix ... -
Importance of colostrum IgG antibodies level for prevention of infection with Cryptosporidium parvum in neonatal dairy calves
(2020)Cryptosporidiosis is one of the most common zoonosis worldwide, causing intestinal infection to both humans and livestock. The purpose of this study was to assess whether the level of anti-C. parvum IgG antibodies transferred ... -
Induction of the acrosome reaction in bull spermatozoa with plasmin
(2003)Proteolytic enzymes appear to have an essential role in multiple phases of mammalian fertilization. Plasmin, the active enzyme of the plasminogen activation system that stimulates fibrinolysis and proteolysis has a less ... -
Isolation of Mycoplasma bovis from bovine clinical mastitis cases in Northern Greece
(2007)Mycoplasnia bovis was detected in 18/219 (8.2%) quarter milk samples collected from cases of bovine clinical mastitis in Northern Greece between November 1997 and March 1999. The cases occurred in 2/37 (5.4%) of the herds ... -

Maintaining production while reducing local and global environmental emissions in dairy farming
(2020)While milk is a major agricultural commodity, dairy farming also supports a large share of global beef production. In Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies of dairy farming systems, dairy-beef production is often ignored or ... -
Modulators of actin-myosin dissociation: Basis for muscle type functional differences during fatigue
(2017)The muscle types present with variable fatigue tolerance, in part due to the myosin isoform expressed. However, the critical steps that define “fatigability” in vivo of fast vs. slow myosin isoforms, at the molecular level, ... -
Morphometrical study of bovine kidneys with and without mild histological lesions [Étude morphométrique de reins de bovins avec et sans lésions histologiques légères]
(2020)Introduction: The objective of this study was to determine the renal dimensions in adult cows and to investigate whether they are affected by the breed, the age of the animals and the presence of subclinical renal ... -
Neospora caninum, A potential cause of reproductive failure in dairy cows from Northern Greece
(2020)Neospora caninum infection has been reported in a large number of intermediate hosts, such as ruminants, rabbits, mice, etc. but neosporosis has emerged as a serious disease in cattle and dogs worldwide. Abortions and other ... -
A neuroprotective bovine colostrum attenuates apoptosis in dexamethasone‐treated mc3t3‐e1 osteoblastic cells
(2021)Glucocorticoid‐induced osteoporosis (GIO) is one of the most common secondary forms of osteoporosis. GIO is partially due to the apoptosis of osteoblasts and osteocytes. In addition, high doses of dexamethasone (DEX), a ... -
Notomelia in a piglet (Sus scrofa): Case report and review of the literature
(2019)This report describes a case of notomelia in a female piglet. The extra limb was attached at the interscapular region and was significantly undergrown. Its appendage was bifurcated with a unilateral keratinized tip. This ... -
Ovine β-lactoglobulin at atomic resolution
(2014)The crystal structure of the triclinic form of the milk protein β-lactoglobulin from sheep (Ovis aries) at 1.1Å resolution is described together with a comparison of the triclinic structures of the low-pH bovine and high-pH ... -
Pancreatic anti-GP2 and anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies in ruminants with paratuberculosis: A better understanding of the immunopathogenesis of Crohn's disease
(2020)Introduction: Ruminants (cattle and sheep) with Mycobacterium avium (MAP)-induced paratuberculosis (ptb), the ruminant model of Crohn's disease (CD), exhibit pancreatic specific autoantibodies (PAB) against GP2 but not ... -
Pharmacological and Non-Pharmacological Agents versus Bovine Colostrum Supplementation for the Management of Bone Health Using an Osteoporosis-Induced Rat Model
