A rapid method has been developed to analyse for firocoxib (FIRO) residue in bovine milk. Milk samples were extracted with acetonitrile and sample extracts were purified on Evolute ABN solid phase extraction cartridges. Aliquots were analysed by rapid resolution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (RRLC-MS/MS). The method was validated in bovine milk, according to the criteria defined in Commission Decision 2002/657/EC. The decision limit (CCalpha) was 1.18ng/mL and for the detection capability a (CCbeta) value of 2.02ng/mL was obtained. The measurement uncertainty of the method was 27%. Fortifying bovine milk samples (n=18) in three separate assays, show the accuracy of the method to be between 96 and 105%. The precision of the method, expressed as RSD values for the within-lab reproducibility at the three levels of fortification (5, 7.5 and 10ng/mL) was less than 11% respectively.

Holstein cattle account for the largest proportion of dairy cattle in China. The current China Performance Index (CPI) consists mainly of production traits. To derive economic values (EV) of additional traits for balanced breeding programs, a bio-economic model is necessary.

Cancer, particularly skin cancer, is a major cause of mortality worldwide, with melanoma being one of the most aggressive and challenging to treat types. Current therapeutic options, such as dacarbazine (DTIC), have limitations due to dose-related toxicities like liver toxicity. Therefore, there is a need for new and effective treatments for melanoma.

Background: Coxiella burnetii is the etiological agent of Q fever in humans, a zoonosis of increasingly important public health concern. The disease results in significant economic losses to livestock farmers and its presence in ready-to-eat dairy products poses a public health threat to consumers.
Aim: This study aimed to detect Coxiella burnetii in dairy products in Kwara State, Nigeria.

Milk proteins possess an abundance of free amino groups and exhibit diverse spatial structures. During food processing, these properties facilitate their interaction with hydrophobic ligands, such as linolenic acid. Exploring the IgE and IgG binding ability of linolenic acid-milk protein complexes at different temperatures, times, and molar ratios is crucial for controlling the allergenicity of milk proteins in food processing.

Here, we investigated whether RVF cycling occurred among livestock and humans in the central highlands of Kenya during inter-epidemic periods. A 2-year prospective hospital-based study among febrile patients (March 2022-February 2024) in Murang'a County of Kenya was followed by a cross-sectional human-animal survey.
