Current State of Modern Biotechnological-Based Vaccines for Aquaculture: A Systematic Review.
(Hindawi, 2019-07-29)
This systematic review describes what "the cutting edge vaccines for are". The focus is on types of high tech biotechnological based vaccines, target gene or antigen in developing these vaccines, and challenge model fish ...
Low topotype diversity of recent foot-and-mouth disease virus serotypes O and A from districts located along the Uganda and Tanzania border.
(The Korean Society of Veterinary Science, 2019-03-01)
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is one of the most important livestock diseases in East Africa with outbreaks reported annually that cause severe economic losses. It is possible to control disease using vaccination, but ...
Molecular detection and genetic characterization of Bartonella species from rodents and their associated ectoparasites from northern Tanzania
(PLOS ONE, 2019-10-15)
Background
Bartonellae are intracellular bacteria, which can cause persistent bacteraemia in humans
and a variety of animals. Several rodent-associated Bartonella species are human pathogens but data on their global ...
Prevalence Of Brucellosis In Livestock And Incidences In Humans In East Africaprevalence Of Brucellosis In Livestock And Incidences In Humans In East Africa
(African Crop Science Journal, 2016)
Brucellosis is an emerging zoonotic disease that poses a threat to both livestock and public health in east Africa.
There are several reports of occurrence of the disease in livestock populations especially in Tanzania ...
Prevalence of brucellosis in the human, livestock and wildlife interface areas of Serengeti National Park, Tanzania.
(AOSIS, 2016-05-24)
Between 2005 and 2006, a cross-sectional survey was carried out in domestic ruminants in agropastoral communities of Serengeti district, Tanzania to determine the seroprevalence of brucellosis in domestic-wildlife interface ...
Spatial and temporal distribution of foot-and-mouth disease in four districts situated along the Uganda-Tanzania border: Implications for cross-border efforts in disease control.
(AOSIS, 2018-08-27)
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is one of the major trans-boundary animal diseases in East Africa causing economic loss to farmers and other stakeholders in the livestock industry. Foot-and-mouth disease occurs widely in both ...
Integrating serological and genetic data to quantify cross-species transmission: brucellosis as a case study
(Cambridge University Press, 2016-03-03)
Epidemiological data are often fragmented, partial, and/or ambiguous and unable to yield the desired level of understanding
of infectious disease dynamics to adequately inform control measures. Here, we show how the ...
Outbreak investigation and control case report of brucellosis: experience from livestock research centre, Mpwapwa, Tanzania.
(AOSIS, 2014-11-25)
Brucellosis screening was conducted between 2005 and 2010 at the National Livestock Research Institute headquarters, Mpwapwa, Tanzania, following an abortion storm in cattle. The initial screening targeted breeding herds; ...
Food Safety, Health Management, and Biosecurity Characteristics of Poultry Farms in Arusha City, Northern Tanzania, Along a Gradient of Intensification
(East African Health Research Commission, 2018)
Background: With the growth, urbanisation, and changing consumption patterns of Tanzania’s human population, new
livestock production systems are emerging. Intensification of poultry production may result in opportunities ...
Mathematical model for the infectiology of brucellosis with some control strategies
(BISKA Bilisim Technology, 2019-12-25)
Brucellosis is a neglected zoonotic infection caused by gram-negative bacteria of genus brucella. In this paper, a
deterministic mathematical model for the infectiology of brucellosis with vaccination of ruminants, culling ...
