An organizational culture of biosafety and biosecurity is critical for effective management of transboundary animal diseases. One essential aspect of this work is keeping important pathogens studied in veterinary laboratories under control. Türkiye is among the countries that are both endemic and disease-free for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) virus, and it has a unique institute dedicated to FMD diagnosis, control, and vaccine production.

The Bakırköy strain-derived sheep pox vaccine (SPPV) has been used against LSD in Türkiye since 2013. In this study, a cattle herd was vaccinated with SPPV and 35 cattle, of which 9 and 26 received 10 and 5 sheep doses, respectively, were followed for 200 days for humoral immune responses.

The administration of different vaccines simultaneously during the foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccination campaign will help reduce both the vaccine stress of animals and the field veterinarians' workload. Diarrhea due to Escherichia coli (E.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFoot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious and economically important viral disease of cloven-hoofed animals. Routine vaccination is one of the preferred methods of protection against this disease in endemic countries. For protective immunity against FMD, repeated immunizations with frequent administration are required.

The effect of these surgical methods used in treatment is to be investigated with quasi-least squares regression (QLS), which is a new data analysis method for correlated data obtained by extending generalized estimating equations (GEE).
Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate whether jaw surgery methods (single jaw and double jaw) and time are effective on some outcome variables (C point menton distance, cervical plane angle, distance from point C to pogonion perpendicular, angle between cervical plane and facial plane) using QLS method.
