The integration of the One Health concept into veterinary education is critical for preparing future professionals to address the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. This study aimed to compare the comprehension of the One Health concept among veterinary students in online ( = 48) and classroom ( = 49) teaching settings and to assess changes in their awareness following instruction by administering pre- and post-course questionnaires to evaluate students' attitudes and perceptions of the One Health concept. An enhancement was noted from before to after education in both settings.

is the aetiological agent of Q fever, which is highly prevalent in Turkiye, but information on the genetic profiles of the bacterium is limited. This study aimed to investigate the presence of in bovine bulk tank milk (BTM) samples by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and to investigate the genotypes by means of multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA). A total of 25 markets that sold raw cow's milk were analysed by conventional PCR analysis.

Escherichia coli is an important microorganism for cattle breeding. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of phylogenetic groups, virulence factors, genotyping with multi-locus variable tandem repeat analysis (MLVA), and susceptibility to commonly used antimicrobial agents in E. coli strains isolated from aborted bovine fetal samples.

Q fever is a zoonotic disease that is known to be widespread throughout the world by many researches since its discovery in 1935 and it is important in terms of animal and public health. Coxiella burnetii, which is the etiological agent of the disease, is an obligate intracellular pathogen. While the disease generally manifests itself with abortion in animals, disease manifests as atypical pneumonia or granulomatous hepatitis in the acute form and as endocarditis in the chronic form in humans.
