(Ciencia Rural, 2020) [Artigo]The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the inclusion of microbial biomass on the oxidative rancidity of tilapia rations stored for 12 months. Treatments included a control diet and diets supplemented with ... -
Gene expression is associated with virulence in murine macrophages infected with Leptospira spp
(PLoS ONE, 2019) [Artigo]Leptospira genus contains species that affect human health with varying degrees of pathogenicity. In this context, we aimed to evaluate the differences in the modulation of host gene expression by strains of Leptospira ... -
Plasmonic rK28 ELISA improves the diagnosis of canine Leishmania infection
(Parasite Immunology, 2020) [Artigo]In this study, we evaluated the performance of a new enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) variant known as indirect “plasmonic ELISA” (pELISA) for the detection of Leishmania spp. infection. Serum samples from 170 ... -
Nutrients Uptake in Shoots and Biomass Yields and Roots and Nutritive Value of Zuri Guinea Grass Inoculated with Plant Growth-promoting Bacteria
(Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2019) [Artigo]The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) inoculation in Zuri guinea grass [Megathyrsus (syn. Panicum) maximus] on shoot dry weight (SDW) and root dry weight (RDW) ... -
Deprivation of dietary fiber enhances susceptibility of mice to cryptosporidiosis
(PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019) [Artigo]Based on our initial observations showing that mice consuming a probiotic product develop more severe cryptosporidiosis, we investigated the impact of other dietary interventions on the intracellular proliferation of ... -
Pedometry applied to a comparative study using morphine and tramadol in bovine
(Ciencia Animal Brasileira, 2019) [Artigo]The use of opioids for analgesia is limited or undefined in ruminants. The aim of this study was to compare two analgesics opioids, morphine and tramadol, based on the clinical and pedometric evaluations of animals submitted ... -
Unsupervised detection of ancestry tracks with the GHap r package
(Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2020) [Artigo]The identification of ancestry tracks is a powerful tool to assist the inference of evolutionary events in the genomes of animals and plants. However, algorithms for ancestry track detection typically require labelled ... -
Growth Rate and Acceleration Analysis of the COVID-19 Pandemic Reveals the Effect of Public Health Measures in Real Time
(Frontiers in Medicine, 2020) [Artigo]Background: Ending the COVID-19 pandemic is arguably one of the most prominent challenges in recent human history. Following closely the growth dynamics of the disease is one of the pillars toward achieving that goal. ... -
Chemical and structural composition of black pigmented supragingival biofilm of bovines with periodontitis
(Pesquisa Veterinaria Brasileira, 2019) [Artigo]Bovine periodontitis is a multifactorial disease primarily associated with a potentially pathogenic microbiota housed in the oral biofilm of animals. Biofilms are organized structures, in which the constituents coexist in ... -
Retrospective study of radiographic changes in athletic bulls with orthopedic disorders
(Pesquisa Veterinaria Brasileira, 2019) [Artigo]The objectives of this study were to demonstrate the lesions that affect athlete bulls and to correlate the disorders with weight, age, affected limb and region of the limb. The present study was accomplished using ... -
Clinical, parasitological, and serological characteristics of toxoplasmosis in felines (Felis catus) infected with isolates i and III of Toxoplasma gondii
