Abstract:
Anopheles vaneedeni and Anopheles parensis (members of the An. funestus group) are generally not considered malaria vectors. However, both species were recently identified as potential vectors in South Africa. A critical factor needed to determine their role in malaria transmission is their preference for human blood. The human blood index of An. vaneedeni and An. parensis and their potential role in the ongoing residual malaria transmission in South Africa is unknown. This study aimed to identify host blood meals from the wild-caught An. funestus group in a longitudinal study, and to establis

Abstract:
Pathogens transmitted by mosquitoes (Diptera, Culicidae) in sylvatic or urban cycles involve wild or domestic animals and humans, driven by various mosquito species with distinct host preferences. Understanding mosquito–host associations is crucial for ecological insights and pathogen surveillance. In this study, we analyzed mosquito blood meals from coastal French Guiana by amplifying and sequencing host DNA from blood-fed females. Using the 12S ribosomal RNA gene and Sanger sequencing, we identified blood meals from 26 mosquito species across six genera, with 59% belonging to the Culex genus

Abstract:
Biting midges of the genus Culicoides are vectors of important pathogens affecting domestic and wild animals and have played a major role in the re-emergence of new outbreaks of bluetongue (BTV) and Schmallenberg (SBV) viruses in Europe. To determine vector-host specificity, trophic preference from blood meal analysis is of major importance in the surveillance of arthropod-borne diseases. Of 28,752 specimens collected, we identified 17 Culicoides species and investigated a total of 48 host sequences from the blood meals.

Abstract:
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition characterized by elevated blood glucose levels. Effective diet management is crucial for controlling this condition and preventing serious complications. This study aims to develop a meal recommendation application for diabetes patients using the Preference Selection Index (PSI) method. The data used include user identity, health conditions, food preferences, and the nutritional content of meal menus. The PSI implementation process involves several key steps: collecting user data, normalizing nutritional values based on the minimum and maximum values in

Abstract:
AbstractBlood meal identification can provide information about the natural host-feeding patterns or preferences of Culicoides species. Such information could indirectly provide data indicating which reservoirs are significant in associated vector-borne diseases.We positively identified the host species through DNA sequencing of the cytochrome b gene in 144 of the 170 (84.7%) blood meal specimens tested. In the remaining samples, identification of the blood-meal source was unsuccessful, possibly due to the post-ingestion time prior to sampling or the availability of the species-specific cytoch

Abstract:
Abstract Animal by-product feeding practices decrease waste from animal processing and create feedstuffs with favorable nutrient profiles. Including animal proteins has decreased recently due to consumer push to increase vegetarian fed animals. Pigs have demonstrated abilities to choose diets meeting their nutritional requirements when presented with a choice-feeding system (Rose and Kyriazakis, 1991). The objective of this study was to observe nursery pig behaviors in selecting animal and plant protein sources given a choice-feeding system. Pigs (n=72) were housed in groups of nine and given

Leishmaniasis is a zoonotic disease caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania, transmitted by phlebotomine sand flies. Understanding the feeding behavior and infection rates of these vectors is crucial for disease surveillance and control. We aimed to investigate the natural infection rate of Leishmania spp. in phlebotomines and analyze their blood-feeding patterns in one of the priority areas of the state of São Paulo for the implementation of insecticide-impregnated dog collars.

We studied feeding preferences and seasonal variation ofCulicoides(Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) vectors in an urban forest of Germany to determine whether humans living nearby are readily exposed to vector-borne parasites from wild animals. We used a fragment of the mtDNA COI gene to identify hosts from blood meals. We amplified a fragment of the mtDNA cyt b to detect haemosporidian infections inCulicoidesabdomens and thoraxes.

Abstract:
The Hittite religious texts (Anatolia of the 16th-12th centuries BCE) illustrate the preference of the Thousand Gods of Hatti for meat. In that category of food offering, fish constitutes a special case, as it occurs most frequently in Kizzuwatnian or Hurrian purification rituals. Fish may be burned entirely in ritual contexts combining substitution rites and food offerings to the gods, or its blood can be sacrificed as a zurki rite.
