In the modern world, animal and plant protein may not meet the sustainability criteria due to their high need for arable land and potable water consumption, among other practices. Considering the growing population and food shortage, finding alternative protein sources for human consumption is an...

The heat stress stimulated by the environment is of vital interest as it negatively influences animal productivity. Therefore, adapting to challenging climate conditions is essential for agriculture because we can gain increased and environmentally friendly production by reducing stress on cattle....

Microbial biofilms defined as extremely complex ecosystems are considered clinically important for humans. However, the concept and significant roles of microbial biofilms in the progression of disease have seriously lagged in veterinary medicine, when compared with human medicine. Although the...

The One Health framework recognizes that human, animal, and environmental health are linked and highly interdependent. Fecal contamination of water, soil, foodstuff, and air may impact many aspects of One Health, and culture, PCR-based, and sequencing methods are utilized in the detection of fecal...

Over the years, significant technological discoveries have facilitated the improvement of meat-related research. Recent studies of complex and interactive factors contributing to variations in meat safety are increasingly focused on data-driven omics approaches such as proteomics. This review...

Starting in approximately 2010, broiler breast meat myopathies, specifically woody breast meat, white striping, spaghetti meat, and gaping have increased in prevalence in the broiler meat industry. Omic methods have been used to elucidate compositional, genetic, and biochemical differences between...

Background: According to the relative potency (REP) of Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), halogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (XPAHs) exhibit more complex structures and higher toxicities than their parent polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PPAHs) and thus may pose a greater threat to food safety and...

Animal models of human babesiosis have provided a basic understanding of the immunological mechanisms that clear, or occasionally exacerbate, Babesia infection and those pathological processes that cause disease complications. Human Babesia infection can cause asymptomatic infection, mild to...

Proteins do not only serve as nutrients to fulfill the demand for food, but also are used as a source of bioactive proteins/polypeptides for regulating physical functions and promoting physical health. Female breast cancer has the highest incidence in the world and is a serious threat to women's...

Imaging of parasites is central to diagnosis of many parasitic diseases and has thus far played an important role in the development of antiparasitic strategies. The development of novel imaging technologies has revolutionized medicine in fields other than parasitology and has also opened up new...
