is among the most common foodborne pathogens worldwide, and can lead to acute gastroenteritis. Along with poultry, cattle production is recognized as an important source of human infection. transmission from cattle to humans can occur through the environment, or through close contact with sick animals or their derived products.

Purpose: Preclinical in vivo nuclear imaging of mice offers an enabling perspective to evaluate drug efficacy at optimal dose and schedule. In this study, we interrogated sufficient estrogen receptor occupancy and degradation for the selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) compound SAR439859 using molecular imaging and histological techniques.
Material And Methods: [F]FluoroEstradiol positron emission tomography (FES-PET), [F]FluoroDeoxyGlucose (FDG) PET, and [F]FluoroThymidine (FLT) PET were investigated as early pharmacodynamic, tumor metabolism, and tumor proliferation imaging biomarkers, respectively, in mice bearing subcutaneous MCF7-Y537S mutant ERα+ breast cancer model treated with the SERD agent SAR439859.
The fecal samples from 213 captive reptiles were examined, and 29 (13.61%) Salmonella enterica isolates were detected: 14/62 (22.58%) from chelonians, 14/135 (10.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe classical microbiological method for detection of Salmonella spp. requires more than five days for final confirmation, and consequently there is a need for an alternative methodology for detection of this pathogen particularly in those food categories with a short shelf-life. This study presents an international (at European level) ISO 16140-based validation study of a non-proprietary Real-Time PCR-based method that can generate final results the day following sample analysis.
