is diffused worldwide, and subsp. is spread worldwide with many serovars associated with the infection of domestic bovines. The most spread are . Dublin, . Typhimurium and . Infantis. Napoli is, however very rarely reported in domestic ruminants. Here, we report an outbreak of . Napoli on a dairy cow farm in Northern Italy (Piacenza). A total of 18 . Napoli isolates were recovered from aborted fetuses, feces, tissues and environmental samples. Whole genome sequencing suggested that all isolates belonged to the same cluster. After the application of stringent biocontainment and biosecurity measures, no further cases were reported. However, four months after the first case, the serovar was still isolated in environmental samples, underlying the importance of adopting the correct biosecurity and biocontainment measures in order to prevent the circulation and transmission of within the farm.

The aim of the trial was to evaluate the influence of diet supplementation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae on nutrient digestibility and milk and mozzarella cheese yield in buffalo cows during the transition period. Twenty buffalo cows in the last month of pregnancy were equally divided into two groups (control, C, and treated, T) homogeneous for parity and milk yield at the previous lactation. The diet of group T was supplemented with 100 g/head/day of a product containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc 47- CNCM I-4407) for 4 weeks before and after calving.

The clinical effects on the udder health of several trace elements-copper, iodine, cobalt, and selenium-contained in an intraruminal slow-release bolus were explored for the first time. Fifty-four dairy cows received the bolus (treated group, TG), while fifty-three were left untreated (control group, CG). Monthly composite milk samples were collected from 30 to 300 days in milk to measure somatic cell count (SCC); milk production was also recorded on the same days.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on the Bagnolese sheep, a breed in Campania that produces milk for Pecorino Bagnolese cheese, and aims to analyze its milk production traits and the genetic impact of the DGAT1 gene.
  • Researchers recorded milk quantity and assessed protein and fat content using specific methods, alongside genotyping to investigate genetic variations at DGAT1.
  • Results indicated that Bagnolese sheep with the CT genotype at the g.5553 SNP of DGAT1 had higher fat and protein yields, suggesting this genotype could serve as a marker for improving milk production in the breed.

Article Synopsis
  • * Traditional diagnosis relies on bacterial isolation, which is slow, while Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) offers a faster and more sensitive alternative.
  • * The study developed a droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) protocol for detecting Brucella in buffalo tissue samples, showing high sensitivity and accuracy, making it a promising tool for veterinary diagnostics.
