Magnetic nonporous poly(HEMA-co-EDMA) and poly(HEMA-co-GMA) microspheres were prepared by dispersion copolymerisation of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and ethylene dimethacrylate (EDMA) or glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) in the presence of magnetite. They were functionalized by polyclonal Salmonella antibodies via the trichlorotriazine method. Salmonella cells were then successfully identified using cultural and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods after their immunomagnetic separation. The PCR sensitivity of target cell detection was negatively influenced by the presence of some compounds used in the process of particle preparation. In some cases, magnetic poly(HEMA-co-EDMA) microspheres with immobilized proteinase K were used for degradation of intracellular inhibitors present in Salmonella cells.

Introduction: Salmonella, a foodborne zoonotic pathogen, is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in animals and humans globally. With the prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains, Salmonellosis has become a formidable challenge. Host-directed therapy (HDT) has recently emerged as a promising anti-infective approach for treating intracellular bacterial infections.

The study addresses the utilization of food waste by-products from faba bean (Vicia faba L.) pods (FBP) as an alternative feed supplement to promote sustainable piglet growth by reducing antimicrobial use. Objectives include evaluation of FBP in terms of nutritional components (proximate composition, fibres, minerals), phytochemical composition (total phenols, HPLC-MS profiling), and in vitro biological activities.

Objective: To describe immune responses following administration of experimental Salmonella Dublin siderophore receptor protein (SRP) vaccines in Holstein heifer calves with adequate passive antibody transfer.
Methods: Calves were randomly assigned to receive placebo, vaccination with S Dublin SRP in adjuvant A, or vaccination with S Dublin SRP in adjuvant B at 7 ± 3 days of age and 3 weeks later. Before each vaccination, 4 and 8 days after the second vaccination (postvaccination), and 61 to 91 days postvaccination, S Dublin antibody titers were measured.

Outbreaks of avian pathogens such as Newcastle disease virus, avian influenza virus, and salmonella have a major impact on economies and food security worldwide. Some pathogens also pose a significant zoonotic potential, especially avian influenza viruses. Vaccination plays a key role in controlling many poultry diseases, and there are many vaccines licenced in the United Kingdom for diseases of poultry caused by viruses, bacteria, and parasites.

The contamination of ground and surface waters with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) is of major concern due to their potential adverse effects on human health. The carbon-fluorine bond makes these compounds extremely stable and hardly degradable by natural processes. Therefore, methods for PFAS removal from water are desperately needed.
