The contamination of fermented feeds and foods with fungi and mycotoxins is a major food safety issue worldwide. Certain lactic acid bacteria (LAB), generally recognized as safe (GRAS) fermentation probiotics, are able to reduce microbial and mycotoxins contamination. In this study, ...

In this study, based on the high-throughput automatic sample pretreatment with immunoaffinity magnetic beads with oriented immobilized antibodies, grain and feed fumonisin (FB) content was detected using pre-column automatic derivatization of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The FB...

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by the metabolism of pathogenic fungi, which can cause various physiological abnormalities and even cancerous changes in humans and animals, posing a great threat to human and animal health. Ultraviolet radiation is a kind of non-ionizing radiation,...

This experiment used the intestinal porcine epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) as model cells, to investigate the effects of T-2 toxin induced inflammatory response in IPEC-J2 and its related mechanism. The cell viability was measured by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method, and the appropriate...

Toxoplasma gondii, an obligate intracellular parasitic protozoon, distributes widely throughout the world. It is one of the most important pathogens causing zoonotic protozoan diseases, resulting in infection of approximately one third of the human population worldwide and most warm-blooded...

Background: The major greenhouse gas from ruminants is enteric methane (CH₄) which in 2010, was estimated at 2.1 Gt of CO₂ equivalent, accounting for 4.3% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. There are extensive efforts being made around the world to develop CH₄ mitigating inhibitors...

Toxoplasma gondii is an apicomplexan pathogen infecting 2 billion people and numerous livestock, causing a major threat to economies and human health. Passive-active immunoprophylaxis is an efficient approach to provide protection against toxoplasmosis. T. gondii perforin-like protein 2 (TgPLP2)...

Echinococcosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the larvae of Echinococcus spp., which is widely prevalent in pastoral areas of central and western China. Echinococcosis severely restricts husbandry industry development and threatens the health of farmers and herdsmen. It is very signifi- cant to...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) subtype H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b virus has spread globally, causing unprecedented large-scale avian influenza outbreaks since 2020. In 2021, we isolated 17 highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 viruses from wild birds in China. To determine virus origin, we...
