Evaluation of multiple reaction monitoring cubed for the analysis of tachykinin related peptides in rat spinal cord using a hybrid triple quadrupole–linear ion trap mass spectrometer
(2014-02)Targeted peptide methods generally use HPLC-MS/MRM approaches. Although dependent on the instrumental resolution, interferences may occur while performing analysis of complex biological matrices. HPLC-MS/MRM3 is a technique, which provides a significantly ... -
Evaluation of recombinant Herpesvirus of Turkey Laryngotracheitis (rHVT-LT) Vaccine against Genotype VI Canadian Wild-Type Infectious Laryngotracheitis Virus (ILTV) Infection
(MDPI, 2021-12-03)In Alberta, infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) infection is endemic in backyard poultry flocks; however, outbreaks are only sporadically observed in commercial flocks. In addition to ILTV vaccine revertant strains, wild-type strains are among ... -
Evaluation of the safety of multiple intramuscular doses of ketoprofen in bearded dragons (Pogona vitticeps)
(Association of reptilian and amphibian veterinarians, 2022-05-30)Cyclooxygenase (COX) 1 has been shown to increase significantly in inflamed ophidian skin and chelonian muscles. Nonselective COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors, such as ketoprofen, could therefore reduce inflammation more effectively than preferential COX-2 ... -

Exposure of feral swine (Sus scrofa) in the United States to selected pathogens
(2015-01)Les porcs sauvages (Sus scrofa) sont largement distribués aux États-Unis. En 2011 et 2012, aux États-Unis des échantillons de sérum et d’amygdales furent obtenus de 162 et 37 porcs sauvages, respectivement, afin d’évaluer l’exposition à d’importants ... -
Extended-spectrum β-lactamase, carbapenemase, and the mcr-1 gene: Is there a historical link?
(2017-03-30)The plasmid mediated mcr-1 gene encoding for Enterobacteriaceae colistin resistance has been recently identified across five continents. The objective of the present study was to trace historical events concerning the discovery and emergence of the ... -
Extensive characterization of Campylobacter jejuni chicken isolates to uncover genes involved in the ability to compete for gut colonization
(2015-05)Background: Campylobacter jejuni is responsible for human foodborne enteritis. This bacterium is a remarkable colonizer of the chicken gut, with some strains outcompeting others for colonization. To better understand this phenomenon, the objective ... -
The fecal presence of enterotoxin and F4 genes as an indicator of efficacy of treatment with colistin sulfate in pigs
(2017)Background : Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains producing multiple enterotoxins are important causes of post-weaning diarrhea (PWD) in pigs. The aim of the present study was to investigate the fecal presence of ETEC enterotoxin as well ... -
First report and genomic characterization of a bovine-like coronavirus causing enteric infection in an odd-toed non ruminant species (Indonesian tapir, Acrocodia indica) during an outbreak of winter dysentery in a zoo
(Wiley, 2021-08-24)Bovine Coronavirus (BCoV) is associated with three distinct clinical syndromes in cattle i.e. neonatal diarrhea, hemorrhagic diarrhea in adults (the so-called winter dysentery syndrome, WD) and respiratory infections in cattle of different ages. In ... -
First report of the novel atypical porcine pestivirus in piglets with congenital tremor in Canada
Premier cas rapporté du nouveau pestivirus atypique porcin au Canada chez des porcelets avec tremblements congénitaux.
(Association canadienne des médecins vétérinaires, 2018-04)Two 2-year-old nursing piglets with congenital tremor were submitted for postmortem examination. Histopathology revealed severe hypomyelination in the spinal cord and quantitative real-time PCR detected the presence of atypical porcine pestivirus ... -
First report of Ureaplasma diversum, a bovine pathogen, in the respiratory tract of swine in Canada
(Association canadienne des médecins vétérinaires, 2018-12) -
First reported outbreak of Duck atadenovirus A tracheobronchitis in 3-week-old ducklings in Québec including whole genome sequence of the virus

FosteraTM PRRS modified live vaccine efficacy against a Canadian heterologous virulent field strain of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV)
(2016-01-01)Vaccination is a useful option to control infection with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), and several modified live-PRRSV vaccines have been developed. These vaccines have shown some efficacy in reducing the incidence and ... -
Gastric stability and oral bioavailability of colistin sulfate in pigs challenged or not with Escherichia coli O149: F4 (K88)
(2015-10)The aim of the present study was to investigate the in vitro gastric stability of colistin sulfate (CS) and its antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli and to study the impact of ETEC O149: F4 (K88) infection in pigs on CS intestinal absorption. ... -
Genetic diversity of group A rotavirus in swine in Canada
(2014-01-09)Group A rotaviruses (RVA) in pigs have been poorly investigated in Canada. In a continued effort to fill this gap, ten finisher swine farms in Quebec, Canada, were sampled over a nine-month period. The presence of RVA was detected in healthy pigs on ... -
Genetic diversity of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae isolates of abattoir pigs
(2014-01)Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, the causative agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia, is present in swine herds worldwide. However, there is little information on strains infecting herds in Canada. A total of 160 swine lungs with lesions suggestive of enzootic ... -
