Exosomes have been extensively studied as disease biomarker in humans, given their role in transporting bioactive molecules. However, despite the great potential of exosomes as noninvasive diagnostic markers and therapeutic nanocarriers for bovine diseases, few studies have been conducted on bovine exosome. Thus, this study aimed to quantitatively and qualitatively compare three isolation methods to identify a suitable method for bovine serum.

Johne's disease (JD) is a chronic enteric infection in ruminants caused by subspecies (MAP). JD infection is more difficult to diagnose in goats than cattle because MAP can insidiously affect small ruminants. Few reports have used pathological and molecular diagnosis for cases in Korean black goats.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate the molecular characterization and antimicrobial susceptibility of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis from skin abscesses of Korean native black goats (KNBG, Capra hircus coreanae) in South Korea.

Methods And Results: A total of 83 isolates were recovered from skin abscesses of KNBG. Of these isolates, 74 isolates were identified as C.

Article Synopsis
  • The study highlights the growing issue of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, focusing on how pet turtles may contribute to this problem by harboring quinolone-resistant genes.
  • Researchers analyzed 54 turtle isolates for resistance to various quinolones, discovering that some were completely resistant and others had intermediate susceptibility.
  • Significant mutations related to resistance were identified, indicating that pet turtles can be a potential source of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, posing a health risk to pet owners.
