The importance of vaccination in the control of the emerging viral diseases outbreaks

During the past decade several new viruses have emerged  making a  global health threat. The most pandemic threats are due to the  either zoonotic or  vector-borne viruses. The emerging of new infectious diseases continue to  be threaten of public health and the social activities including traveling or trade help to sustain and spread of the viruses.  Developing methods to manage and predict th...

Emerging viral diseases of fish and shrimp

The rise of aquaculture has been one of the most profound changes in global food production of the past 100 years. Driven by population growth, rising demand for seafood and a levelling of production from capture fisheries, the practice of farming aquatic animals has expanded rapidly to become a major global industry. Aquaculture is now integral to the economies of many countries. It has provid...

postnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

Techniques for diagnosing viral diseases of salmonid fish

Cell culture for amplification and the techniques most used for identification of salmonid viruses neutralization, immunofluorescence and, to a lesser extent, immunoperoxldase, complen~ent fixation, agglutination, electron microscopy, immunodifussion or radioimmunoassay may soon be replaced by other techniques such as enzyme immunoassays (immunodot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA) ...
