This study determined the phototoxic potential of riboflavin (RIB) and curcumin (CUR) against Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. fluorescens) in vitro and in fluid milk using factorial arrangements. Photodamage was investigated by transmission electron microscopy. The milk was illuminated by thin layers...

The objective of the present study was to evaluate clinical, cardiorespiratory, and Doppler echocardiographic changes in rabbits sedated with midazolam and morphine combined with or without dexmedetomidine. This study was a blinded, randomized, controlled experiment that included 16 adult male New...

Monitoring programs for food safety hazards in feed and food are increasingly performed on a risk-basis. Various methods are available to rank hazard-product combinations to be included in risk-based monitoring programs. Such methods have been developed for either feed or food, but until now these...

This article outlines how to calculate your practice's carbon footprint using Vet Sustain's Veterinary Carbon Calculator. We discuss what data is required for the calculator, how to input these and how to interpret the results to inform your practice's sustainability policy and carbon reduction...

In recent years, respiration rate (RR) monitoring using video data has been explored by researchers with relatively good success. However, the approaches used so far require the manual identification of the region of interest (ROI) in the image of the animal. When monitoring farm animals, typically ...

Nutrition plays an important role in the management of critically ill and other hospitalised patients, such as patients undergoing routine post-operative care. However, nutrition is often overlooked as an important part of patient care. Identifying patients at risk for malnutrition, addressing...

The reason for presenting this review was the growing increase in antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria. New regulations of the European Union enforce the need to reduce significantly antibiotics use in animal production. Therefore, representatives of veterinary medicine and swine producers...

The term "poultry sub-health" describes a state of transition between poultry health and illness. For poultry health warning and rearing performance, its sensitive identification and precise monitoring are extremely important. In poultry rearing it is frequently anticipated to achieve the best...

Classifying birds accurately is essential for ecological monitoring. In recent years, bird image classification has become an emerging method for bird recognition. However, the bird image classification task needs to face the challenges of high intraclass variance and low inter-class variance among ...

The continuous monitoring of stress, pain, and discomfort is key to providing a good quality of life for horses. The available tools based on observation are subjective and do not allow continuous monitoring. Given the link between emotions and sympathetic autonomic arousal, heart rate and heart...
