Comparative full genome sequence analysis of wild-type and chicken embryo origin vaccine-like infectious laryngotracheitis virus field isolates from Canada
(Elsevier, 2022-08-14)
Infectious laryngotracheitis (ILT), caused by infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV), occurs sporadically in poultry flocks in Canada. Live attenuated chicken embryo origin (CEO) vaccines are being used routinely to ...
Single-step production of autologous bovine platelet concentrate for clinical applications in cattle
(Elsevier, 2022-11-21)
Platelet concentrate (PC) is an alternative therapy to treat mastitis in dairy cattle and is an alternative treatment for reproduction problems such as endometritis. Unfortunately, double-centrifugation processing methods ...
Impact of deoxynivalenol (DON) contaminated feed on intestinal integrity and immune response in swine
(Elsevier, 2015-02-17)
This study was performed to characterize the influence of consuming DON naturally contaminated feeds on pig's intestinal immune defenses, antibody response and cellular immunity. Sixteen 4-week-old piglets were randomly ...
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (App) culture supernatant antiviral effect against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) occurs prior to the viral genome replication and transcription through actin depolymerization
(Microbiology Society, 2018-01-02)
PURPOSE:
Recently, the strong antiviral activity of an Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (App) culture supernatant against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) was discovered. Following this finding, ...
Impact of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae biofilm mode of growth on the lipid A structures and stimulation of immune cells
(SAGE, 2016-05-25)
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP), the etiologic agent of porcine pleuropneumonia,
forms biofilms on both biotic and abiotic surfaces. APP biofilms confers resistance to antibiotics.
To our knowledge, no studies have ...
Dual infections of CD163 expressing NPTr epithelial cells with influenza A virus and PRRSV
(2017-08)
In the pig, respiratory co-infections involving various pathogens are far more frequent than single infections.
Amongst respiratory viruses, swine influenza type A virus (swIAV) and porcine reproductive and respiratory
syndrome ...
Whole genome sequencing of a Canadian Bovine gammaherpesvirus 4 strain and possible link between the viral infection and respiratory and reproductive clinical manifestations in dairy cattle
(2017-06-16)
Bovine gammaherpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) is a herpesvirus widespread in cattle populations, and with no clear disease association. Its genome contains a long unique coding region (LUR) flanked by polyrepetitive DNA and 79 open ...
Postvaccinal reovirus infection with high mortality in breeder chicks
Postvaccinal reovirus infection in breeder chicks
(2014-12)
A broiler breeder flock was subcutaneously vaccinated at the hatchery with a live avian orthoreovirus (ARV) vaccine against viral arthritis. Chicks began to die at 3 days of age and postmortem examination revealed massive ...
The emergence of porcine circovirus 2b genotype (PCV-2b) in swine in Canada
(2007-08-01)
Since late 2004, the swine industry in the province of Quebec has experienced a significant increase in death rate related to postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS). To explain this phenomenon, 2 hypotheses were ...
Emergence of a New Swine H3N2 and Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Influenza A Virus Reassortant in Two Canadian Animal Populations, Mink and Swine
(2011-12)
A swine H3N2 (swH3N2) and pandemic (H1N1) 2009 (pH1N1) influenza A virus reassortant (swH3N2/
pH1N1) was detected in Canadian swine at the end of 2010. Simultaneously, a similar virus was also detected
in Canadian mink ...
