Single-use plastics have often replaced more sustainable materials in microbiology laboratories. Keeping mind that one of the objectives United Nations Sustainable Development Goals is responsible consumption and production, we wanted to document how many single-use plastic items could be saved by taking reduction reuse approaches a laboratory. After 4 weeks baseline levels waste being generated our laboratory identifying ways reduce reliance on them, implemented various then documented use...
Background/Objectives: Salmonella is a major cause of foodborne illnesses, with multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains posing significant threats to public health worldwide. This study investigated the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) Salmonella, focusing on extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing in retail poultry meat Korea. Methods: A total 300 samples were collected nationwide from markets. Multi-locus sequence typing, serotyping, susceptibility testing performed....
Theileria orientalis Ikeda has caused an epidemic of bovine anemia and abortion across several U.S. states. This apicomplexan hemoparasite is transmitted by Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks; however, it unknown if other North American ticks are competent vectors. Since the disease movement largely determined host tick range(s), prediction T. spread among cattle populations requires determination additional Although Rhipicephalus microplus mostly been eradicated from U.S., outbreaks in occur...
Introduction Theileria orientalis , an economically significant tick-borne hemoparasite, infects cattle globally. The T. Ikeda genotype, transmitted by Haemaphysalis longicornis ticks, is associated with clinical manifestations characterized anemia, abortions, and mortality, although subclinical infections prevail. Despite the common occurrence of infections, therapeutic interventions targeting in such cases are currently lacking, impeding effective parasite control measures. To address this...
Abstract Background Theileria haneyi is one of the three known causative agents equine piroplasmosis. While imidocarb generally effective in clearance highly pathogenic equi , it ineffective treatment T. . Moreover, co-infection with has been shown to impede successful Furthermore, tulathromycin and diclazuril have demonstrated inefficacy eradicating The absence an therapeutic agent against this parasite represents a significant obstacle managing Methods To address issue, we evaluated...
Theileria orientalis Ikeda, an emerging U.S. bovine hemoparasite, causes anemia, abortion, ill-thrift, and occasionally death. While Haemaphysalis longicornis is the primary vector, it possible that other ticks are capable of parasite transmission may contribute to disease spread. Dermacentor variabilis highly prevalent in U.S., exhibits a similar geographical distribution T. orientalis, competent vector related parasite, equi. Herein, we conducted controlled acquisition studies using...

Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 can cause haemorrhagic diarrhoea and potentially fatal renal failure in humans. Ruminants are considered the primary reservoir for human infection. Studies investigating response of cattle to colonization generally focus on humoral immunity, leaving role cellular immunity unclear. These bacteria colonise their host by tight attachment epithelium, using a type three secretion system inject cocktail effectors into cell. Injected manipulate...
