Protection of honey bees is great economic importance because their role in pollination. Crucial steps towards this goal are epidemiological surveys pathogens connected with bee losses. In study deformed wing virus (DWV), chronic paralysis (CBPV), acute (ABPV) and sacbrood (SBV) were investigated colonies different strength located five regions Serbia. The relationship between colony occurrence/infection intensity assessed as well the genetic sequences from Serbia worldwide. Real-time RT-PCR...

Wildlife is the most important reservoir of Trichinella spp. worldwide. Although Balkans are a recognized European endemic region for infections, data on wildlife scarce. To monitor circulation these zoonotic parasites in Central Balkan region, wolf (Canis lupus) was selected because its abundance (>2,000 individuals) and it at top food chain. A total 116 carcasses wolves were collected Serbia neighboring areas Macedonia Bosnia Herzegovina (B&H) between 2006 2013. larvae found 54 (46.5%)...

Salmonella is a common contaminant of pork and can present health hazard to consumers. Therefore, for an effective control, the entire supply chain must be involved. The aim this paper examine survival Typhimurium in minced meat skin at different temperatures time. In meat, stored +4 ± 0.5°C during 72 h, number all three examined strains A, B, C decreased (p<0.01). +10 1°C after strain A was significantly higher (p<0.01), while B C, no statistically significant difference determined...

The aim of this study was to investigated the seasonal variation in nutrient composition Mytilus galloprovincialis, cultivated Boka Kotorska Bay, Montenegro, during all seasons one year. Biometric parameters, meat yield, condition index, proximate composition, minerals, and lipid fatty acid compositions mussels were analyzed. most significant factors determining these parameters temperature, food amount gametogenesis biometric showed no differences sampling period. In spring, yields mussel...

Abstract Critical indicators of intensive production in hog raising are continuity production, high level produced series-tours, application the most contemporary technological achievements without any turnover capital, merchandise turnover, and usage reproduction potential breeding material. Production piglets represents one essential phases pork meat. In spite genetic factors, duration interval wean-conception is basic factors determination bringing forth indexes number per litter. order...

Abstract Bluetongue, a vector-born disease caused by the Bluetongue virus (BTV) and transmitted Culicoides biting midges, is considered to be one of most important diseases domestic ruminants. The first outbreak bluetongue in Serbia was reported 2001, when BTV serotype 9 identified sampled materials. In 2014, BTV-4 considerable economic losses affecting sheep, cattle goats. During this outbreak, recorded 644 outbreaks within 49 municipalities, part 17 administrative regions. From total...

Foodborne viruses, major pathogens that cause food poisoning, pose significant threats to safety and human health. The main viruses responsible for outbreaks of foodborne illness are norovirus, hepatitis A E rotavirus, astrovirus, adenovirus, Aichi virus, sapovirus, the rate at which novel viral varieties arise is always increasing. Raw foods such as bivalve shellfish, fruits, salads raw vegetables fish, ready-to-eat (RTE) frequently linked outbreaks. Viruses cannot grow in because they...

Introduction. Trichinellosis is a disease in humans caused by parasites of the genus Trichinella, and these roundworms can occur variety animals (over one hundred mammal species). Members Trichinella are present almost all continents climate zones. Intensive studies on eradication this have been going for long period, but despite finances invested research projects, trichinellosis still 21st century poses major health issue over world. According to current scientific estimations, there 27...

Abstract Diflubezuron is increasingly used in areas where mosquito larvae developed resistance to other insecticides. In our community diflubenzuron not control larvae. Two formulations of 1% (on corn-cob EF-1, and zeolite EF-2) were tested on Culex pipiens L (larvae) one canal the Belgrade suburb area. The effect was followed for seven weeks after application formulations. Formulation EF1 achieved a reduction 1 2 between 23.9% 89.4%. change statistically significant 21 st 28 th day...

Introduction. Trichinellosis is a cosmopolitan anthropozoonosis, and group of systemic diseases caused by larval forms Trichinella. This one the oldest most controversial parasitic zoonoses that has been in forefront veterinary, medical biological research for many years. Parasites from genus Trichinella were diagnosed more than hundred species domestic wild mammals birds. The aim this study was economic evaluation program monitoring controlling pigs. Materials Methods. A systematic pest...

Background. Rodent pests are natural reservoirs and vectors of a vast array human animal diseases caused by bacteria, rickettsia, viruses, protozoans, fungi some parasites. The most important risk factor for infection with Trichinella is the rearing pigs on small farms rural households, if rodent pest control not conducted regularly. cause economic losses consuming, contaminating and/or damaging foods intended or consumption. Scope Approach. aim this work to point out epidemiological...

Abstract This study reports the occurrence of Escherichia coli in 243 mussel samples collected along Boka Kotorska Bay (six harvesting areas), which is located Southern Adriatic Sea. Bivalve molluscs can concentrate contaminants from their water environment, so because that, determination E. levels an important parameter for microbial pollution assessment investigated areas. The number ranged between &lt;18 MPN/100 g to 16 x 10 3 soft tissues. In bivalve mollusc samples, analysed during...

Introduction. Artificial insemination of sows with cooled semen has become a routine practice in the swine industry and almost completely ruled out natural mating. The storage time preservation its qualitative parameters are upmost importance depend partly on extender used. aim this study was to determine quality during thermobox commercial by assessment sperm motility, cytomorphology, reproductive after intrauterine insemination. Materials Methods. preserved Duragen? (Magapor, Spain) stored...

Abstract In the current research, use of polyphenols in production fermented sausages as a natural preservative and their influence on sensory characteristics these products were investigated. Polyphenols could have antimicrobial antioxidant roles meat products, but also range positive biological effects consumers. The results research showed that addition did not significantly affect properties (colour, cross-section appearance, consistency, odour flavour) three groups (control sausage two...

Abstract This paper presents the results of consumer opinion testing (n=1000) on hazards in meat (biological, chemical), as well about causes contamination from farm to retail. Consumer sources households is also presented.

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate antibacterial effects oregano and thyme essential oils on Listeria monocytogenes in fermented sausages their effect the sensory characteristics these sausages. For testing purposes, contaminated with L. were produced. Changes microbiological status physicochemical properties monitored during ripening. Essential exhibited activity against , groups a high concentration (0.6%) or (KLO2 KLT2), number below detection threshold day 14 ripening,...
