Advancing knowledge on cyanobacterial blooms in freshwaters
(2020)Cyanobacterial blooms have become a frequent phenomenon in freshwaters worldwide; they are a widely known indicator of eutrophication and water quality deterioration. Information and knowledge contributing towards the ... -
Antimicrobial resistance of animal and human strains of enterobacteriaceae in Greece
(2003)Two hundred sixty two strains of Enterobacteriaceae from animal and human sources where intermixing and/or spreading is possible were examined for their resistance to 15 antimicrobials frequently used in animal prophylaxis ... -
Antiparasitic and immunomodulatory effect of innovative treatments against Myxobolus sp. infection in Diplodus puntazzo
(2005)The potential antiparasitic and immunomodulatory effect of three treatments against myxosporean parasites on the innate immune system of sharpsnout sea bream (Diplodus puntazzo) was investigated. Fish naturally infected ... -
Application of a semi-dependent latent model in the Bayesian estimation of the sensitivity and specificity of two faecal culture methods for diagnosis of paratuberculosis in sub-clinically infected Greek dairy sheep and goats
(2006)In this study, we compared the frequency of isolation of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) from faecal samples grown on Herrold's egg-yolk medium (HEYM) or on Lowenstein-Jensen (LJ) medium and estimated the ... -
Aspergillus species cystitis in a cat
(2001)A Persian male cat with a history of lower urinary tract disease was presented because of polydipsia, polyuria, constipation and nasal discharge. Ten weeks before admission, the cat had been treated for lower urinary tract ... -
Biogeography of body size in terrestrial isopods (Crustacea: Oniscidea)
(2016)This study tries to unveil the contribution of climatic shift in shaping the extreme body size diversity in terrestrial isopods (Oniscidea). Trying to explain size variation at an interspecific level, we test five hypotheses: ... -
Bone marrow side population cells are enriched for progenitors capable of myogenic differentiation
(2008)Although the contribution of bone marrow-derived cells to regenerating skeletal muscle has been repeatedly documented, there remains considerable debate as to whether this incorporation is exclusively a result of inflammatory ... -
Broad-front migration leads to strong migratory connectivity in the lesser kestrel (Falco naumanni)
(2019)Aim: Migratory animals regularly move between often distant breeding and non-breeding ranges. Knowledge about how these ranges are linked by movements of individuals from different populations is crucial for unravelling ... -
Case report: High prevalence rate of ovine mastitis, caused by coagulase-negative staphylococci and predisposed by increased gossypol consumption
(2004)A case of unusually high (>94%) prevalence of mastitis in a flock of dairy sheep, which was caused by coagulase-negative staphylococci (cnS) and associated with increased gossypol consumption, is presented. The animals ... -
The commercial impact of pig salmonella spp. Infections in border-free markets during an economic recession
(2015)The genus Salmonella, a group of important zoonotic pathogens, is having global economic and political importance. Its main political importance results from the pathogenicity of many of its serovars for man. Serovars ... -
A comparison of propofol, thiopental or ketamine as induction agents in goats
(2005)Objective: To compare propofol, thiopental and ketamine as induction agents before halothane anaesthesia in goats. Study design: Prospective, randomized cross-over study. Animals: Seven healthy adult female goats with mean ... -
Comparison of Three Different Techniques for Subcutaneous Relocation of the Carotid Artery in Small Ruminants
(2001)Three surgical techniques for subcuzaneous relocation of the carotid artery in small ruminants are compared. A total of 25 sheep and seven goats were used and randomly assigned to three groups. In group A (technique A), ... -
Conservative management for complete loss of a metatarsal pad in a dog
(2009)A three-year-old intact, male Siberian Husky was presented for complete loss of its left metatarsal pad. The wound was managed as an open wound and left to be closed by second intention healing. Conservative management ... -
A cross-sectional study of the seroprevalence and flock-level factors associated with ovine and caprine brucellosis in southeastern Iran
(2014)This cross-sectional study was conducted to estimate seroprevalence and to identify flock-level factors associated with seropositivity to brucellosis in small ruminants in Kerman province, southeastern Iran. In October-November ... -
Deficiency of the B cell-activating factor receptor results in limited CD169+ macrophage function during viral infection
(2015)The B cell-activating factor (BAFF) is critical for B cell development and humoral immunity in mice and humans. While the role of BAFF in B cells has been widely described, its role in innate immunity remains unknown. Using ... -
Discovery and characterization of 2-anilino-4- (thiazol-5-yl)pyrimidine transcriptional CDK inhibitors as anticancer agents
(2010)The main difficulty in the development of ATP antagonist kinase inhibitors is target specificity, since the ATP-binding motif is present in many proteins. We introduce a strategy that has allowed us to identify compounds ... -
An early warning indicator for monitoring infectious animal diseases and its application in the case of a sheep pox epidemic
(2017)We describe an early warning indicator for monitoring infectious diseases. The approach is illustrated with data from a major sheep pox epidemic, which occurred in the Evros prefecture of Greece, from August 2013 until the ... -
Effect of irradiation on foods of animal origin
(2010)The very nature of the technology of irradiating food to reduce microbiological bio-burden and increase shelf-life has given rise to concerns about the effects of the process on the food itself. This article reviews the ... -
