Abstract:
The influence of ecological, epizootological and technological factors on fish health was studied. It is shown that disregard of environmental, technological and veterinary-sanitary requirements in the reproduction and cultivation of fish leads to the emergence of contagious and non-contagious diseases and causes significant damage to fish farming. The analysis of previously approved veterinary and sanitary rules, instructions, recommendations for breeding and commercial fish farms, as well as patent documentation and scientific publications in the field of ecological and veterinary research in fish farming is carried out. The possibility of using modern ecological and veterinary-sanitary achievements for the protection of fish health is shown. The complex system of preventive measures (organizational, environmental-technological and veterinary-sanitary), supplemented by modern ecological and veterinary achievements, in its implementation will allow to reduce losses of fish products and increase efficiency of production.

Abstract:
The global population is rapidly urbanising, with East Africa experiencing some of the fastest rates of urban growth. Urbanisation drives changes in diet, including increased consumption of animal source products (ASPs), and livestock value chains are becoming increasingly long and complex to meet these demands. This may place urban consumers at increased risk of food-borne infectious diseases. Evaluation of food-borne disease (FBD) risk to urban consumers in developing countries has been hampered by a lack of data on the composition of urban diets, and a lack of methodologies to systematically assess risk along food value chains which are typically informal, unregistered, and unregulated. This research used a value chain risk assessment approach (VCRA) to evaluate food-borne infectious disease risks along dairy value chains supplying Moshi Municipality, the regional capital of Kilimanjaro, Northern Tanzania. Our findings demonstrated that by far the most frequently consumed products were unpackaged milk and mtindi (fermented milk). While there was some role for urban livestock keepers in supplying these products to their communities directly, most of the milk and mtindi sold within Moshi originated with milk produced by smallholder farmers in rural areas surrounding the towns. Both the milk and mtindi value chains involved similar value chain nodes and actors, with a large degree of overlap between the formal and informal sectors and little to no formal education or training on milk handling and hygiene for chain participants. VCRA identified the bulking, wholesale and retail stages of the value chain as potential hotspots for introducing infectious disease risk. Consumers were well informed about many of the FBD risks posed by milk, and took active steps to mitigate these risks by boiling before consumption; however they perceived mtindi as posing a lower risk and were unable to mitigate risks with any preparatory step as mtindi is consumed as purchased. The highest risk to consumers was estimated to be posed by mtindi rather than milk, particularly mtindi made from leftover unsold milk, as this milk had a high risk of contamination. More studies are needed to investigate the infectious hazards present in both mtindi and other fermented milk products which are consumed widely across the region. The practice of valorising leftover ASPs as alternative products for human consumption may represent a particular source of FBD risk to urban consumers in developing countries.

Abstract:
Os rotavírus são os responsáveis pela ocorrência de diarreias em humanos e outras diversas espécies animais. Estão amplamente disseminados na suinocultura, inclusive no Brasil. As proteínas não estruturais 2 e 5 (NSP2 e NSP5) dos rotavírus estão envolvidas nas etapas de replicação viral, sendo essenciais para a formação do viroplasma, uma estrutura citoplasmática no interior da qual ocorre a morfogênese das novas partículas virais. Entretanto, são escassos os estudos sobre a diversidade genética destas proteínas em rotavírus circulantes nas criações brasileiras. Até o presente momento, a NSP2 pode ser classificada em nove genotipos (N1 ao N9) e a NSP5, 11 (H1 ao H11), sendo que em humanos foram descritos os genotipos N1, N2, N3 e H1, H2 e H3, e em suínos N1 e H1. Este estudo teve o objetivo de caracterizar as amostras circulantes de rotavírus em termos da diversidade da NSP2 e NSP5. Para isso, um total de 63 amostras fecais provenientes de criações de suínos localizadas em seis diferentes municípios do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil, foram previamente triadas mediante a técnica de nested-PCR. Destas, nove tiveram os respectivos segmentos genômicos amplificados pela reação de RT-PCR, sendo que em sete foi possível o sequenciamento nucleotídico parcial para NSP2 e, em seis, o sequenciamento total para NSP5. Todas foram caracterizadas como genotipo N1 e H1. Considerando o gene NSP2, nas amostras aqui definidas, a identidade nucleotídica variou de 100% a 86,4%, e em termos de aminoácidos, de 100% a 91,5%, enquanto que para NSP5 foi de 100% a 95,1%, e de 100% a 97,4% respectivamente para nucleotídeos e aminoácidos. Conclui-se que os genotipos das amostras circulantes na região de estudo estão em concordância com aqueles descritos na literatura para a espécie suína, e que há a hipótese de interação entre rotavirus de origem humana e animal. Estes dados são úteis para uma vigilância mais abrangente dos rotavírus circulantes e contribuem para uma melhor compreensão da patogenia, epidemiologia e prevenção da doença, inclusive no que diz respeito ao seu caráter zoonótico.
Rotaviruses are responsible for the occurrence of diarrhea in humans and several other animal species. They are widespread in pig farms, including in Brazil. The non-structural proteins 2 and 5 (NSP2 and NSP5) of rotavirus are involved in viral replication and they are essential for the formation of viroplasm, a cytoplasmic structure within which occurs morphogenesis of new viral particles. However, there are very few studies on the genetic diversity of those proteins in circulating rotavirus in Brazilian swine raisings. So far, nine NSP2 genotypes have been identified (N1 to N9) and eleven for NSP5 (H1 to H11). In humans, genotypes N1, N2, N3 and H1, H2, H3 have been described, whereas in pigs, H1 and N1 have been described. This study is aimed at characterizing circulating samples of rotavirus in terms of diversity of NSP2 and NSP5. For this purpose, a total of 63 fecal samples from pig farms located in six different cities in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, were previously screened by nested-PCR technique. Of those, nine had their genomic segments amplified by RT-PCR, and in seven it was possible to obtain the partial nucleotide sequencing for NSP2, whereas in six, the total sequencing for NSP5. All were characterized as genotype H1 and N1. Considering the gene NSP2, the strains nucleotide identity, defined herein, ranged from 100% to 86.4% and in terms of amino acids, from 100% to 91.5%. Whereas for NSP5, it was from 100% to 95.1 %, and 100% to 97.4% for nucleotides and amino acids, respectively. It is concluded that the genotypes of the strains circulating in the region of study are in agreement with those reported in literature for swine, and that there is the possibility of interaction between human and animal rotaviruses. These data are useful for a broader surveillance of circulating rotaviruses and contribute to a better understanding of the pathogenesis, epidemiology and disease prevention, especially in regard to its zoonotic aspect.

Abstract:
Os rotavírus estão entre os principais causadores de diarreia em humanos e animais, inclusive em mamíferos e aves. Os sintomas da doença geralmente incluem diarreia e depressão, aumento da mortalidade, e \"runting and stunting syndrome\", caracterizado principalmente por perda de peso, também tem sido atribuído a infecções por rotavírus em aves. O capsídeo externo da partícula viral é formado pelas proteínas estruturais VP4 e VP7 que possuem antígenos de neutralização baseados nos quais os rotavírus são classificados em genotipos P e G, respectivamente. O capsídeo intermediário é formado pela VP6 que define os grupos de rotavírus de A-G de acordo com a reatividade de anticorpos ou sequenciamento nucleotídico desta proteína. A proteína não estrutural NSP5 está envolvida no processo de replicação viral, sendo essencial para a formação dos viroplasmas. Este estudo teve o objetivo de pesquisar a frequência de ocorrência de rotavírus dos grupos A e D, em amostras fecais de aves de diferentes criações comerciais brasileiras, seguida da caracterização dos genotipos P e G, dos rotavírus do grupo A, através de sequenciamento nucleotídico. Para isso, 111 pools de amostras fecais foram processados através das técnicas de ELISA, PAGE e RT-PCR (NSP5), resultando em 43 (38,73%) amostras positivas pelas três técnicas. Definiram-se os genotipos G5, G8 e G11 através de RT-PCR (VP7) e o genotipo G19 após reação de RT-PCR seguida de sequenciamento nucleotídico. Definiu-se ainda o genotipo P[31] a partir do sequenciamento de amostras positivas por RT-PCR (VP4). Das 111 amostras processadas por RT-PCR visando o gene codificador da VP6, obtiveram-se 4 sequências que confirmaram tratar-se de rotavírus do grupo D. Os genotipos G5, G8 e G11 estão relacionados a surtos em bovinos e suínos, enquanto que os genotipos G19 e P[31] estão descritos em aves. Conclui-se que os rotavírus encontram-se amplamente disseminados nas criações comerciais brasileiras devido à elevada frequência da ocorrência e que existe a possibilidade de transmissão interespécie.
Rotavirus are a major cause of diarrhea in humans and animals, including several mammalian and avian species. The symptoms of the disease generally include diarrhea and depression, increased mortality and the chronic runting and stunting syndrome mainly characterized by weight loss have also been linked to rotavirus infections of birds. The outer layer of the virus particle is formed by VP4 and VP7 proteins, which possess neutralization antigens. Based on VP7 and VP4 the rotavirus are classified into genotypes G and P respectively. The intermediate layer consists of VP6 which defines the rotavirus groups. Based on the antibody reactivity and sequence identity of VP6, seven rotavirus groups (A to E) have been defined. The NSP5 are involved in viral replication and they are essential for the formation of viroplasm. Here we report the occurrence of group A and D rotavirus in feces of broilers, layers and broiler breeders from Brazilian poultry farms. A total of 111 pools of intestinal contents were processed in this study, using a ELISA, PAGE and RT-PCR (NSP5) techniques. Out of 111 pools of fecal samples tested, 43 showed positive results (38.73%) for rotavirus. Were typed the G5, G8 e G11 genotypes using the RT-PCR (VP7) and the G19 genotype using a RT-PCR followed by nucleotide sequencing reaction of the amplicons. Was defined the P[31] genotype using the RT-PCR (VP4) technique followed by nucleotide sequencing reaction. Out of 111 pools of fecal samples tested by RT-PCR (VP6), 4 showed positive results for rotavirus of group D. The G5, G8 and G11 are typical bovine and porcine rotavirus genotypes, whereas the G19 and P[31] genotypes are found in birds. As a conclusion, rotavirus is widely spread in commercial Brazilian poultry farms due to the high frequency of occurrence and there is the possibility of interspecies transmission.

Abstract:
Os rotavírus e coronavírus são importantes agentes virais associados às enteropatias em suínos, tendo implicações em Saúde Animal, Saúde Pública e no Agronegócio. Apesar disso, são escassos os trabalhos em nosso meio que visaram detectá-los e caracterizá-los com maior amplitude, especialmente os coronavírus. Nesse sentido, determinou-se a ocorrência das amostras circulantes destes vírus a partir de materiais clínicos oriundos de diversas granjas produtoras de suínos de 12 diferentes municípios do Estado de São Paulo, mediante o emprego de três reações, previamente descritas, em paralelo: uma multiplex nested RT-PCR para detecção simultânea de dois coronavírus suínos que podem ser encontrados nas fezes desses animais, o Vírus da Gastroenterite Transmissível (TGEV) e o Vírus da Diarreia Epidêmica dos Suínos (PEDV), e rotavírus do grupo A; uma nested RT-PCR para investigar a existência de algum pancoronavírus nos animais pesquisados; e uma RT-PCR para verificar a ocorrência do TGEV e do Coronavírus Respiratório Suíno (PRCoV), o qual também pode ser observado em materiais fecais de porcos. Para a primeira reação, foram utilizados dois pares de primers dirigidos ao gene S do TGEV (951pb e 793pb), dois ao gene M de PEDV (425pb e 291pb), e dois ao gene NSP5 do rotavírus (317pb e 208pb); para a segunda, foram empregados quatro primers direcionados ao gene RdRp dos coronavírus (251pb e 136pb); e para a terceira, foi usado um par de primers tendo como alvo o gene S (886pb para TGEV e 205 a 214pb para PRCoV). Os dados obtidos demonstraram que há uma elevada frequência de ocorrência de rotavírus nas criações comerciais, acometendo 40,37% do total de amostras testadas (88/218) e 91,6% dos municípios amostrados (11/12 municípios). Os coronavírus não foram detectados nas criações. Os fragmentos de rotavírus amplificados provenientes da multiplex nested RT-PCR foram purificados e caracterizados através da determinação das sequências de nucleotídeos, referentes aos genes VP4 e VP7. Foi possível o sequenciamento nucleotídico total do gene VP7 de uma amostra, e o sequenciamento parcial de 34 (aproximadamente 24,74% a 35,57% da região codificadora) e 23 (aproximadamente 63,19% a 98,77% da região codificadora) amostras para o gene VP4 e VP7, respectivamente. Quanto aos genotipos, foram detectados o G3, G5 e G9 em combinação com P[6], P[13] (e/ou P[22]) e P[23]. Formulações vacinais disponíveis comercialmente contemplam apenas os genotipos G4 e G5 dos rotavírus, o que demonstra uma desvantagem em termos de proteção de animais suscetíveis, visto que somente um deles (G5) foi encontrado nos animais analisados no presente estudo. O conhecimento deste víru permite estudos quanto à transmissão zoonótica e interespécies deste micro-organismo e o fortalecimento do controle e de medidas profiláticas direcionadas ao agente.
The rotavirus and coronavirus are important viral agents associated with enteropathies in pigs, with implications for Animal Health, Public Health and Agribusiness. Nevertheless, there is little data about the detection and characterization of these viruses, especially the coronavirus. This study determined the occurrence of them on farrow-to-finish pig farms from 12 different cities in the São Paulo State, Brazil. For this purpose, three reactions, previously described, were performed: multiplex nested RT-PCR for simultaneous detection of two porcine coronavirus that can be found in the feces of these animals, the Transmissible Gastroenteritis Virus (TGEV) and the Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus (PEDV), and group A rotavirus; a nested RT-PCR to investigate the occurrence of any member of the genus Coronavirus; and a RT-PCR for detection of the TGEV and Porcine Respiratory Coronavirus (PRCoV), which can also be observed in fecal samples of swine. For the first reaction, we used two pairs of primers targeting the S gene of TGEV (951bp and 793bp), two primers targeting to the M gene of PEDV (425bp and 291bp), and two primers targeting the NSP5 gene of group A rotavirus (317bp and 208bp). For the second reaction, four primers were used targeting to the RdRp gene of coronaviruses (251bp and 136bp). In the third reaction, a pair of primers was used targeting the S gene (886bp to TGEV and 205-214bp to PRCoV). This data showed that 40.37% of the total samples tested (88/218) and 91.6% of the cities (11/12 cities) were positive for rotavirus. Coronaviruses were not detected on farms examined in this study. The rotavirus positive stools were characterized based on PCR and nucleotide sequence analyses for the VP4 and VP7 genes. The VP7 complete nucleotide sequencing was obtained for one sample, and partial nucleotide sequencing for 34 (about 24.74% to 35.57% of coding region) and 23 (about 63.19% to 98.77% of coding region) samples for the VP4 and VP7 gene, respectively. The genotypes G3, G5 and G9 in combination with P[6], P[13] (and / or P[22]) and P[23] was found. Commercially available vaccine formulations include only the G4 and G5 rotavirus genotypes, which demonstrates a disadvantage in terms of protection of susceptible animals, whereas only one (G5) was detected in the animals analyzed in this study. The knowledge of this virus allows studies of the zoonotic and interspecies transmission of this microorganism and the strengthening of control and prophylactic measures directed to the agent.

Nascimento, Vladimir Pinheiro do. "The ease of translocation of Salmonella enteritidis through the eggshell wall : an immunocytochemical/ultrastructural study." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 1992. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/3893/.

Full text
Abstract:
Evidence is presented to indicate that: a) The cuticular layer of the shell is rarely present as an even covering at any stage in the laying year. So, its role as a first line of defence is questionable. b) The shell membranes do inhibit bacterial transfer to some degree, even when they are structurally disrupted; however, if the challenge is great enough, then their function as effective barriers is reduced. c) In the absence of the shell membranes, Salmonella enteritidis Phage type 4 does not move freely across the shell, but it is either facilitated or inhibited in its passage by structural variation in the true shell, particularly at the level of the mammillary layer. Statistical data support in most instances a significant and positive correlation between the presence of structural defects and bacterial transfer. d) In a three tier battery system, a tier effect exists with respect to ease of translocation of microoganisms, with eggs from the top tier being more susceptible, i.e. structurally inferior. e) The results confirm earlier work that shell quality declines with age, and extends this finding to show that this morphological deterioration is accompanied by a decreased resistance to bacterial movement. f) Patent gas exchange pores, whilst obvious portals for bacterial ingress, are in this respect of secondary importance to structural defects within the shell. Evidence is also provided to substantiate the assumption that birds, irrespective of strain, display diverse shell structural quality. One of the strains evaluated (strain B) was structurally better than the other (strain A), at the beginning and middle of lay, and was also more capable of withstanding bacterial challenge in all three laying periods tested. 4. The housing system can influence shell quality; thus Barn and Battery eggs were structurally superior to their Range counterparts, at the end of lay. 5. The tagging of Salmonella with immunogold markers proved to be a valuable technique, which allowed a more precise localisation of the bacteria within the shell's ultrastructure, as viewed by the Scanning Electron Microscope (S.E.M.). This method gave support to other findings in this work, confirming that bacterial transfer was specifically encouraged by late fusion and alignment of the mammillae and pitting occurrences, with the cone layer probably implicated in the process of penetration in vivo.

Abstract:
Leptospirosis is an important but neglected zoonotic disease that is often overlooked in Africa. Although comprehensive data on the incidence of human disease are lacking, robust evidence of infection has been demonstrated in people and animals from all regions of the continent. However, to date, there are few examples of direct epidemiological linkages between human disease and animal infection. In East Africa, awareness of the importance of human leptospirosis as a cause of non-malarial febrile illness is growing. In northern Tanzania, acute leptospirosis has been diagnosed in 9% of patients with severe febrile illness compared to only 2% with malaria. However, little is known about the relative importance of different potential animal hosts as sources of human infection in this area. This project was established to investigate the roles of rodents and ruminant livestock, important hosts of Leptospira in other settings, in the epidemiology of leptospirosis in northern Tanzania. A cross-sectional survey of rodents living in and around human settlements was performed alongside an abattoir survey of ruminant livestock. Unusual patterns of animal infection were detected by real-time PCR detection. Renal Leptospira infection was absent from rodents but was detected in cattle from several geographic areas. Infection was demonstrated for the first time in small ruminants sub-Saharan Africa. Two major Leptospira species and a novel Leptospira genotype were detected in livestock. L. borgpetersenii was seen only in cattle but L. kirschneri infection was detected in multiple livestock species (cattle, sheep and goats), suggesting that at least two distinct patterns of Leptospira infection occur in livestock in northern Tanzania. Analysis of samples from acute leptospirosis in febrile human patients could not detect Leptospira DNA by real-time PCR but identified social and behavioural factors that may limit the utility of acute-phase diagnostic tests in this community. Analysis of serological data revealed considerable overlap between serogroups detected in cattle and human leptospirosis cases. Human disease was most commonly attributed to the serogroups Mini and Australis, which were also predominant reactive serogroups in cattle. Collectively, the results of this study led to the hypothesis that livestock are an important reservoir of Leptospira infection for people in northern Tanzania. These results also challenge our understanding of the relationship between Leptospira and common invasive rodent species, which do not appear to maintain infection in this setting. Livestock Leptospira infection has substantial potential to affect the well-being of people in East Africa, through direct transmission of infection or through indirect effects on food production and economic security. Further research is needed to quantify the impact of livestock leptospirosis in Africa and to develop effective interventions for the control of human and animal disease.

Abstract:
Nas últimas décadas, pesquisadores vêm atribuindo crescente importância à ocorrência de agentes patogênicos para a conservação de animais selvagens. Epizootias em carnívoros selvagens na África e América do Norte levaram a declínios significativos nas populações afetadas. Por outro lado, animais selvagens podem agir como reservatórios para agentes que afetam o homem e animais domésticos. O objetivo deste estudo foi pesquisar a exposição de carnívoros selvagens e de animais domésticos da região da RPPN SESC Pantanal a patógenos importantes para a conservação dos carnívoros selvagens e para o homem. Para isto, entre 2002 e 2006, 76 carnívoros selvagens (43 cachorros-do-mato, Cerdocyon thous, 13 guaxinins, Procyon cancrivorous, oito lobos-guarás, Chrysocyon brachyurus, quatro jaguatiricas, Leopardus pardalis, sete suçuaranas, Puma concolor e um cachorro-vinagre, Speothos venaticus) foram capturados e tiveram amostras sangüíneas coletadas. Também foram amostrados 103 cães domésticos em comunidades humanas localizadas ao norte da RPPN e 27 cavalos utilizados no interior da reserva. Para os carnívoros (selvagens e domésticos) foi realizado sorodiagnóstico para o vírus da cinomose (soroneutralização), parvovírus (HI), raiva (SFIMT) e Leptospira spp. (MAT), além do diagnóstico direto para Leishmania spp., através da PCR. A sorologia para Leptospira spp. também foi realizada nos eqüinos. Dentre os carnívoros selvagens, 21 de 75 animais testados apresentaram título >= 8 de anticorpos para o vírus da cinomose, 70 de 76 apresentaram título >= 80 de anticorpos para o parvovírus, 4 de 76 apresentaram título >= 10 UI/ml de anticorpos para o vírus da raiva, 32 de 75 apresentaram título >= 100 de anticorpos para Leptospira spp. e 7 de 21 foram positivos para Leishmania spp. Dentre os cães domésticos, foram diagnosticados 65 positivos à sorologia para o vírus da cinomose dos 79 indivíduos testados, 98 de 102 para o parvovírus, 27 de 102 para o vírus da raiva e 18 de 103 para Leptospira spp. Para Leishmania spp., 20 de 70 foram positivos. As amostras dos animais positivos para Leishmania foram identificadas como pertencentes ao sub-gênero Viannia, sendo duas delas identificadas especificamente como Leishmania (V.) braziliensis. Vinte de 27 cavalos foram positivos sorologicamente para Leptospira spp. Os resultados obtidos indicam que os carnívoros selvagens e cães domésticos foram expostos aos cinco agentes pesquisados, demonstrando a presença destes na região. Isto indica que os carnívoros selvagens da região podem ser ameaçados pela presença dos patógenos que comumente circulam nas populações de cães domésticos. Também demonstram que agentes zoonóticos circulam nestes animais na região. No entanto, nem a mortalidade de carnívoros selvagens em decorrência de doenças nem o papel dos animais selvagens como reservatórios de agentes zoonóticos puderam ser claramente demonstrados. Apesar disto, é evidente a necessidade de implementação de medidas preventivas visando evitar a transmissão de patógenos aos carnívoros selvagens, como vacinação e controle populacional dos cães domésticos, e de um sistema de vigilância para as leishmanioses, para a raiva e para a leptospirose, aliado a um programa de educação em saúde na comunidade de São Pedro de Joselândia e adjacências.
In the last decades, researchers have been giving growing importance to the occurrence of pathogens for the conservation of wild animals. Epizootics in wild carnivores in Africa and North America have led to declines in the affected populations. On the other hand, wild animals may act as reservoirs to pathogens that affect humans and domestic animals. The purpose of this study was to assess the exposure of wild carnivores and domestic animals from the Northern Pantanal region to pathogens that are important for the conservation of wild carnivores and for men. From 2002 to 2006, 76 wild carnivores (43 crab eating foxes, Cerdocyon thous, 13 raccoons, Procyon cancrivorous, eight maned wolves, Chrysocyon brachyurus, four ocelots, Leopardus pardalis, seven pumas, Puma concolor, and one bush dog, Speothos venaticus) were captured and blood samples were collected. Additionally, 103 domestic dogs and 27 horses from the same area were also sampled. Serological tests were performed for wild carnivores and domestic dogs for CDV (SN), CPV (HI), rabies virus (SFIMT) and Leptospira spp. (MAT), along with PCR for Leishmania spp. MAT was also performed for horses. Among wild carnivores, 21 of 75 tested animals had titers >= 8 for CDV antibodies, 70 of 76 had titers >= 80 for CPV antibodies, 4 of 76 had titers >= 10 UI/ml for rabies virus antibodies, 32 of 75 had >= 100 for Leptospira spp. antibodies, and 7 of 21 were positive for Leishmania spp. Among domestic dogs, 65 of 79 animals tested positive for serology for CDV, 98 of 102 for CPV, 27 of 102 for rabies virus and 18 of 103 for Leptospira spp. For Leishmania spp., 20 of 70 were positive. Positive samples for Leishmania spp. were identified as belonging to the sub-genus Viannia. Two of these were identified to the species level as Leishmania (V.) braziliensis. Twenty of 27 horses were serologically positive for Leptospira spp. These results indicate that wild carnivores and domestic dogs were exposed to all five tested pathogens, showing their presence in the region. This indicates that wild carnivores in the region may be threatened by pathogens that commonly circulate among domestic dog populations. It also demonstrates that zoonotic agents circulate among the wild carnivore population in the region. However, neither a greater mortality of wild carnivores due to infectious diseases nor their role as reservoirs of zoonosis have been clearly demonstrated. Nevertheless, the need to act to prevent the transmission of pathogens to wild carnivores, through vaccination of domestic dogs and population control, is evident. The implementation of a surveillance system for rabies, leishmaniasis and leptospirosis, together with a health education program in the human community, would also be very important.

Abstract:
Geographical distance is no longer a major barrier to the spread of germs or genes, or the interaction of different animals. We need to think of the world’s animals as a single population—herd medicine on a global scale. ‘Global veterinary medicine’ explains that as humans change the global and local environments, veterinary science needs to get better at predicting and preventing the emergence and spread of diseases and, when they inevitably occur, identify and respond to them quickly, effectively, and proportionately. Veterinary science also has a clear role in the conservation of species and biodiversity as well as in improving farming systems to make them both profitable and sustainable.

Abstract:
Pig farming currently occupies a prominent place in the southern states of the Brazil, owning approximately 50% of the national squad, estimated at 42 million pig heads. However, the swine activity contributes significantly to the generation of environmental impacts on the environment. Recently, the greatest need for animal protein has exerted pressures on the current animal production system and one of the alternatives has been to the use of veterinary medicines, which have several uses ranging from therapeutic use, preventive in the treatment of various diseases and as growth promoters. Its indiscriminate and uncontrolled use is currently endangering the environmental balance of producing sites through effluent contamination. Many producers have been using contaminated slurry as a biofertilizer. In this sense, further studies on techniques and processes of treatment of organic effluents contaminated by veterinary drugs are necessary. Alternative low-cost and environmentally viable treatment systems are needs to minimize the entry into the environment of these contaminants. Therefore, the composting process that can defined as a process of aerobic microbial decomposition of organic matter and nutrient recycling can be an alternative for the treatment of effluents contaminated by veterinary drugs.

Abstract:
Rabies is a lethal zoonotic encephalomyelitis and a major challenge to public and animal health. Livestock are affected by rabies mostly through bites of rapid dogs or wildlife carnivore\'s species. They are considered as ‘dead-end’ hosts that do not transmit the virus. Rabies in livestock has been endemic in many developing countries for many years and diagnosed through clinical signs and dog-biting history. An introduction on rabies situation in farm animals will be given then subchapters including `rabies in bovines, rabies in small ruminants, rabies in swine and rabies in camelids. In each subchapter we shall discuss, epidemiology, modes of transmission, diagnosis and prevention and control measures.

Full text
Abstract:
Marek’s disease (MD) is one of the widespread infectious diseases that causes huge losses in large-scale poultry production. This is due to weight loss, poorer feed conversion and an increased number of deaths among infected birds. The etiological agent is a Marek’s disease virus (MDV) belonging to the Herpesviridae family. It is mainly described in poultry, however, it is also found in geese. There are three MDV serotypes, and four patotypes within serotype 1. Currently, Marek’s disease is very rare in its classical form. There are non-specific clinical symptoms, and anatomopathological changes are mainly observed in the liver, spleen and the reproductive system. This may be due to the evolution in the pathogenicity of MDV field strains over the past several decades. The presence of MDV and number of molecular diagnostic tests based on the detection of viral nucleic acids and viral proteins is already found in birds that have several weeks old. Laboratory diagnostics are based mainly on molecular biology (mainly PCR) methods. The only relatively effective method instead of biosecurity measures, of preventing MD is prophylactic vaccination of 1-day-old chickens or in ovo vaccination. Nevertheless, Marek’s disease is still recorded in poultry flocks around the world, with estimated losses reaching several million dollars.
