A computational study of the interaction of the foot and mouth disease virus VP1 with monoclonal antibodies
(Elsevier, 2015-10)Foot and mouth disease is caused by a non-enveloped virus (FMDV), which disposes several antigenic sites at the surface of their capsid proteins. The most relevant and immunodominant antigenic site of FMDV (site A or AnSA) ... -
A contribution of beef to human health : a review of the role of the animal production systems
(2016)Meat and meat products constitute important source of protein, fat, and several functional compounds. Although beef consumption may implicate possible negative impacts on human health, its consumption can also contribute ... -
A cost-effective and customizable automated irrigation system for precise high-throughput phenotyping in drought stress studies
(2018-06-05)The development of high-yielding crops with drought tolerance is necessary to increase food, feed, fiber and fuel production. Methods that create similar environmental conditions for a large number of genotypes are essential ... -
A Coxiella mutualist symbiont is essential to the development of rhipicephalus microplus
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-12)The cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus is a hematophagous ectoparasite that causes important economic losses in livestock. Different species of ticks harbor a symbiont bacterium of the genus Coxiella. It was showed that ... -
A cross-sectional study of free-roaming dogs in a Patagonian city: Their distribution and intestinal helminths in relation to socioeconomic aspects of neighborhoods
(Elsevier, 2022-08)Human and dog health are inextricably linked, and although our relationship with dogs brings numerous benefits for our well-being, it is known that they can transmit disease. Bariloche is a Patagonian tourist city with ... -
A cupric reducing antioxidant capacity assay coupled to thin‑layer chromatography
(Springer Nature, 2024-01)The use of natural antioxidant extracts in food processing is a growing trend, aligning with increasing ecological awareness and meeting consumer demands for safe, high-quality food products. Plants play a significant role ... -
A descriptive Study of lectin histochemistry of the placenta in cattle following inoculation of Neospora caninum.
(Elsevier, 2019-01)The aim of this study was to describe the lectin-binding pattern in the placentas of cows infected experimentally with Neospora caninum. Four cows were inoculated intravenously with 1 × 108 tachyzoites of the NC-1 strain ... -
A direct high-throughput in Cell-ELISA for measuring infectivity of cytopathic and non-cytopathic bovine viral diarrhoea virus strains applied to the assessment of antiviral activity
(Elsevier, 2018-07-19)Low-cost high-throughput methods applicable to any virus strain are required for screening antiviral compounds against multiple field strains. Colorimetric cell-viability assays are used for this purpose as long as the ... -
A Divergent Strain of Culex pipiens-Associated Tunisia Virus in the Malaria Vector Anopheles epiroticus
(2018-10-25)Here, we report the draft genome sequence of a divergent strain ofCulex pipiens-associated Tunisia virus (CpATV) identified in the malaria vectorAnoph-eles epiroticus(CpATV-AnE). CpATV-AnE expands the reference virus ... -
A DNA vaccine formulated with chemical adjuvant provides partial protection against bovine herpes virus infection in cattle
(2017-01-25)Bovine herpesvirus-1 (BoHV-1) is the causative agent of bovine infectious rhinotracheitis, an important disease worldwide. Although conventional BoHV-1 vaccines, including those based on the use of modified live virus and ... -
A dose-dependent response to MEK inhibition determines hypoblast fate in bovine embryos
(BioMed Central, 2019-07-04)Background: The segregation of the hypoblast and the emergence of the pluripotent epiblast mark the final stages of blastocyst formation in mammalian embryos. In bovine embryos the formation of the hypoblast has been ... -
A dynamic model for sodium intoxication unravels salt tolerance in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) rootstocks
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2020-12)A correct selection of salt-tolerant plants should consider the relative effects of the various existing tolerance mechanisms. When toxic ions, like Na+, reach the leaves, they affect the photosynthetic apparatus, reducing ... -
A fijivirus major viroplasm protein shows RNA-stimulated ATPase activity by adopting pentameric and hexameric assemblies of dimers
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-02)Fijiviruses replicate and package their genomes within viroplasms in a pro cess involving RNA-RNA and RNA-protein interactions. Here, we demonstrate that the 24 C-terminal residues (C-arm) of the P9-1 major viroplasm protein ... -
A first record of bulk atmospheric deposition patterns of major ions in southern South America
(Springer, 2019-09)Despite the importance of long-term atmospheric deposition of ions for vegetation productivity and biogeochemistry, southern South America lacks long-term deposition records. We report a 6-year-long record of atmospheric ... -
