The direct methods for diagnosis of bovine brucellosis have several limitations, therefore serological tests are the basis for the diagnosis of the disease. However, a meta-analysis estimating the diagnostic sensitivity (DSe) and diagnostic specificity (DSp) on the main tests used in bovine brucellosis control programs worldwide has not been performed. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed ...

A marine-derived Pleosporales fungus, Uzbekistanica storfjordensis, was isolated from driftwood and described as a new species. The fungus was cultivated in liquid media and a molecular networking-driven approach was used to identify potential new secondary metabolites. The targeted compounds were isolated using preparative HPLC-MS, and through extensive spectroscopic analysis, eight new ophiobolin-type ...

Introduction: This study examines rabies incidence and associated risk factors at the interface between wildlife and human communities near Pian-Upe game reserve in Eastern Uganda. We hypothesized that human settlements in closer proximity to the reserve would exhibit higher rabies risk compared to those located further away.<p> <p>Methods: Using a standard questionnaire, households within <4, ...

Dette kapittelet handler om å gå på tur. Det er noe de fleste av oss gjør hele tida, vi går skogsturer, fjellturer, skiturer, toppturer og mye mer. Men vi har også andre ord for dette; vi vandrer og lager vandreruter i fjellet, vi bruker terrenget, vi rusler og jogger – vi beveger oss. Bevegelser er helt sentralt for mennesket, å gå er nesten som hjerteslag og pust, helt fundamentalt for livet – ...

As educational institutions navigate the complexities of digital transformation, understanding the factors that drive successful technology integration is essential. The implementation of digital tablets in schools is becoming increasingly common. Through the application of the digital maturity framework, a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis was conducted to construct a digital maturity ...

Bycatch of threatened flatfish species is a major concern in mixed-species bottom-set gillnet fisheries in the Yellow Sea, China. Therefore, we tested floated gillnets against standard bottom-set gillnets to reduce bycatch by exploiting difference in species-specific fish behavior. Our results demonstrated that the floated gillnet design can greatly improve species and size selectivity. Floated ...

CO2-en fra Melkøya kan brukes som råvare i produksjon av fôr til både mennesker og dyr. Teknologien er allerede utprøvd ut ved ferrosilisiumproduksjonen i Finnfjordbotn.

The use of recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) production has become increasingly common. RAS water disinfection plays a crucial role on its biosecurity. Peracetic acid (PAA) is a promising disinfectant due to its powerful oxidative properties, broad antimicrobial spectrum, and rapid degradation into no harmful compounds. This study focused on assessing the ...

This study investigates the regional demand for shrimp in Norway by employing the linear approximated Almost Ideal Demand System (LA/AIDS) framework. Shrimp consumption has grown significantly globally, with Norway being no exception. The LA/AIDS model allows us to examine the demand of shrimp across different regions in Norway. We utilize comprehensive data on regional shrimp consumption, prices, ...
