The number of mass casualty incidents among the dogs has significantly increased during a few recent years in the cities of this country; they are most frequently attributed to the activities of the so-called dog hunters. The dog hunters make use of a variety of chemical compounds for poisoning the dogs. Most of them are the multi-component substances, with their chemical composition being highly variable and continuously modified. The objective of the present study was to develop the method for the isolation and identification of isoniazid and metoclopramide introduced into the baits that are distributed by the dog hunters for the poisoning of the animals. The proposed method was tested with the use of biological fluids obtained from the laboratory animals. The effectiveness of isolation of the compounds of interest from these materials with the use of the liquid-liquid and fractional freezing extraction techniques was evaluated. In addition, the method for solid phase extraction with the use of the 'Oasis HLB' cartridges was developed.

Strontium isotope (Sr/Sr) analysis with reference to strontium isotope landscapes (Sr isoscapes) allows reconstructing mobility and migration in archaeology, ecology, and forensics. However, despite the vast potential of research involving Sr/Sr analysis particularly in Africa, Sr isoscapes remain unavailable for the largest parts of the continent. Here, we measure the Sr/Sr ratios in 778 environmental samples from 24 African countries and combine this data with published data to model a bioavailable Sr isoscape for sub-Saharan Africa using random forest regression.

Objective: The objective of this study was to satisfy the US FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health regarding the safety of targeted osmotic lysis (TOL), a novel treatment for advanced carcinomas, in Beagle dogs.

Methods: 12 intact Beagle dogs, 6 males and 6 females, were divided into 2 treatment groups of 6, each receiving 3 TOL cycles. For each 6-day cycle, digoxin was administered orally at 0.

Widespread distribution of transduced brain cells following delivery of AAV vectors into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the cisterna magna (CM) has been demonstrated in large animal brains. In humans, intraventricular injection is preferred to intracisternal injection for CSF delivery due to the risk of brain stem injury. One study in the dog reported adverse reactions to AAV vectors expressing GFP injected into the lateral ventricle but not when injected into the CM.

Article Synopsis
  • * Results showed that mouflons had significantly lower cortisol levels compared to red deer and wild boars, indicating less stress.
  • * The findings suggest that stalking hunts likely do not harm the welfare of big game animals, as they may adapt to ongoing stress, with mouflons demonstrating greater resilience.

Serological evidence of natural exposure to rabies in rural populations in Gabon.

Rabies is one of the oldest known zoonotic diseases, with dogs being the main reservoir for 99% of the cases of human rabies. However, wild animals may also be rabies vectors. In most cases, contact with a rabid animal results in rabies without pre- or post-exposure prophylaxis, and the disease is nearly always fatal.
