Sex identification of sun conure () using loop-mediated isothermal amplification of W and Z spindlin chromosomes.

Background And Aim: The sun conure (), a bird belonging to the Psittaciformes family, is a popular pet because of its bright color and beautiful appearance. The sun conure is a monomorphic bird with similar appearances between males and females, making sex identification difficult by observing the external morphology. Therefore, molecular techniques are utilized.

Association of with Clinical Signs and Abnormal Hematologic/Biochemical Changes in Pet Rabbits in Thailand.

can cause serious disease and subclinical infection in rabbits and requires active surveillance to control the infection. This study investigated the association between anti- antibody status and various health parameters in pet rabbits. A total of 90 rabbits were divided into healthy ( = 30), subclinical ( = 30), and clinical ( = 30) groups based on their anti- antibody status and clinical presentations.

Development of a recombinase-aided amplification method combined with lateral flow dipstick assay to detect type 2.

Background And Aim: Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is a pathogenic virus that suppresses the immune system of pigs, impacting their health and causing economic losses. Rapid diagnostic tools for early detection of PCV2 are critical to disease prevention and control. Several molecular techniques have been established for detecting PCV2 but costly equipment and time-consuming methods are unsuitable for field inspection.

Expression of the recombinant C-terminal of the S1 domain and N-terminal of the S2 domain of the spike protein of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.

Background And Aim: Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) causes severe diarrhea in suckling piglets, leading to severe economic losses in the swine industry. Commercial vaccines have limited effectiveness against different genogroups of PEDV and the shedding of virus. The C-terminal of the S1 domain and the N-terminal of the S2 domain (S1-2) protein of the spike (S) protein have four neutralizing epitopes.

Developing an indirect ELISA based on recombinant hexon protein for serological detection of inclusion body hepatitis in chickens.

Fowl adenovirus (FAdv) serotype 2 causes inclusion body hepatitis (IBH) disease which adversely affects the broiler industry in Thailand. We developed an indirect ELISA based on the recombinant hexon protein produced by E. coli.
