Seroprevalence of in Goats from Korkuteli District of Antalya.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence of in goats from the Korkuteli district of Antalya.

Methods: During the study, sera samples were obtained from 184 female goats and analyzed for the presence of antibodies against using a commercial ELISA kit.

Results: Seroprevalence of was determined as 4.

A state-of-the-art review on spent coffee ground (SCG) pyrolysis for future biorefinery.

Coffee is a globally consumed beverage that produces a substantial amount of valuable organic waste known as spent coffee grounds (SCG). Although SCG is a non-edible biomass, research initiatives focused on valorizing/utilizing its organic content, protecting the environment, and reducing the high oxygen demand required for its natural degradation. The integration with biorefinery in general and with pyrolysis process in specific is considerered the most successful solid waste management strategy of SCG that produce energy and high-value products.

First molecular characterization of hypodermin genes of Hypoderma bovis and serodiagnosis of bovine hypodermosis with recombinant hypodermin C antigen and a synthetic peptide containing its linear B-cell epitope.

Hypodermins A (HA), B (HB), and C (HC) of warble flies are modulatory antigens involved in host inflammation and immune responses during migration of the warble fly larvae through host connective tissues. In the current study, molecular characteristics of the genes encoding HA, HB, and HC were revealed from cDNA constructs of third-instar larvae of Hypoderma bovis. The open reading frame (ORF) of each hypodermin gene was amplified with modified gene-specific primers, and the resulting PCR products were cloned into pGEM-T Easy Vector to produce recombinant plasmids (rHA, rHB, and rHC).

Anaerobic co-digestion of oil-extracted spent coffee grounds with various wastes: Experimental and kinetic modeling studies.

The effect of oil extraction from spent coffee grounds as a pre-treatment strategy prior to anaerobic digestion besides assessing the feasibility of defatted spent coffee grounds co-digestion with spent tea waste, glycerin, and macroalgae were examined. Mesophilic BMP tests were performed using defatted spent coffee grounds alongside four co-substrates in the ratio of 25, 50, and 75%, respectively. The highest methane yield was obtained with the mono-digestion of defatted spent coffee grounds with 336 ± 7 mL CH/g VS and the yield increased with the increase in the mass ratio of defatted spent coffee grounds during co-digestion.
