The first evidence of bovine viral diarrhea virus circulation in Libya.

Background And Aim: Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is endemic in North Africa and the Mediterranean Basin with high socioeconomic impacts. However, there are no data on this disease in Libya. One of the aims of this study was to provide data on BVD in Libya, to fill in the gap in the region and to investigate the level of seroprevalence of BVD virus (BVDV) in Libya and associated risk factors.

Antimicrobial susceptibility profile of isolated from some dairy products in Libya as a foodborne pathogen.

Background And Aim: is one of the most common causes of clinical and asymptomatic mastitis in dairy cattle, as well as in milk and dairy products that affect milk quality. Mastitis caused by is even more serious due to its poor response to antibiotic therapy. The aim of this study was to detect and identify the presence of in milk and dairy products produced in Libya.

Antibacterial activity of flavonoid extracts from and against multidrug-resistant foodborne bacterial isolates.

Background: Food poisoning caused by bacterial agents is a worldwide problem, usually accompanied by unpleasant symptoms and may be severe leading to death. Natural compounds from marine algae namely flavonoids may play a role in the remedy of this condition.

Aim: This research aims to assess the potency of flavonoids extracted from and as antibacterial agents.

Evidence of West Nile Virus Circulation in Horses and Dogs in Libya.

West Nile virus (WNV) is a globally significant mosquito-borne Flavivirus that causes West Nile disease (WND). In Libya, evidence of WNV circulation has been reported in humans but never in animals. The aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of WNV infection in horses and dogs in Libya.

Efficacy of Fowlpox Virus Vector Vaccine Expressing VP2 and Chicken Interleukin-18 in the Protection against Infectious Bursal Disease Virus.

In mammals, the role of interleukin-18 (IL-18) in the immune response is to drive inflammatory and, normally therefore, anti-viral responses. IL-18 also shows promise as a vaccine adjuvant in mammals. Chicken IL-18 (chIL-18) has been cloned.
