A Performance Index as a Measure of the Host Suitability to Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae)
(Springer, 2024-01)Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is an Asiatic invasive fruit pest that has spread over the world in the last 15 years, due to its high reproductive rate, its tolerance to different ... -
A phenotypic characterization of two isolates of a multidrug-resistant outbreak strain of mycobacterium tuberculosis with opposite epidemiological fitness
(Hindawi, 2020-04)Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, primarily affecting the lungs. The M. tuberculosis strain of the Haarlem family named M was responsible for a large multidrug-resistant TB ... -
A plasmid encoding the extracellular domain of CD40 ligand and MontanideTM GEL01 as adjuvants enhance the immunogenicity and the protection induced by a DNA vaccine against BoHV-1
(Elsevier, 2021-02)DNA vaccines are capable of inducing humoral and cellular immunity, and are important to control bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1), an agent of the bovine respiratory disease complex. In previous work, a DNA plasmid that encodes ... -
A point of view on genetic resources and plant breeding
(Sociedade Brasileira de Floricultura e Plantas Ornamentais, 2022-03)Biodiversity is the set of living organisms that make up our battered planet and their interactions with the environment. It is made up of the Kingdoms: Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Monera. It provides the energy ... -
A prime-boost combination of a three-protein cocktail and multiepitopic MVA as a vaccine against Babesia bigemina elicits neutralizing antibodies and a Th1 cellular immune response in mice
(Elsevier, 2022-09)In the intraerythrocytic protozoan parasites of the genus Babesia both innate and adaptive immune responses are necessary to confer protection against clinical disease. In particular, the adaptive immune response involves ... -
A rapid and affordable amplicon-based method for next generation genome sequencing of the infectious bursal disease virus
(Elsevier, 2023-12)The infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) causes a severe immunosuppressive disorder in young chickens. IBDV evolution resulted in the emergence of strains with divergent genetic, antigenic, and pathogenic characteristics. ... -
A simple and economic three-step process for producing highly purified Fab’ fragments directly from the egg yolk water-soluble fraction
(Elsevier, 2022-11)Although mammals are still the main source of polyclonal antibodies production, the use of egg yolk immunoglobulins (IgY) is increasing, and thus improvement of its safety to reduce undesired reactions is needed. Removal ... -
