The biochemical agent involved in adhesion to epithelial cells of chicken crop, by a specie-specific Lactobacillus salivarius strain, was isolated and characterized. Cells of L. salivarius A23 strain were able to autoaggregate in spent broth or in sterile bidistilled water and to adhere to chicken crop epithelium, as observed by optical and scanning electron microscope. The time required for ce...

Effectiveness of current passive zoonotic disease surveillance systems is limited by the under-reporting of disease outbreaks in the domestic animal population. Evaluating the acceptability of passive surveillance and its economic, social and cultural determinants appears a critical step for improving it. A participatory rural appraisal was implemented in a rural subdistrict of Thailand. Focus ...

The α9 and α10 cholinergic nicotinic receptor subunits assemble to form the receptor that mediates efferent inhibition of hair cell function within the auditory sensory organ, a mechanism thought to modulate the dynamic range of hearing. In contrast to all nicotinic receptors, which serve excitatory neurotransmission, the activation of α9α10 produces hyperpolarization of hair cells. An evolutio...
