Oxidant and Antioxidants During the Transition Period in Dairy Cows
Abd Ellah, Mahmoud Rushdi
The transition from pregnancy to parturition is associated with metabolic and physiological changes. Oxidative stress is increased in late pregnancy and continue to be higher after parturition, which represent a challenge for the dairy cows to defend the increased free radicals by using the available antioxidants. This review discussed the process of free radical release, the development of oxidative stress and evaluation of the animal health during the transition period and threw the light on different methods used to assess oxidative stress and antioxidants therapy.

Listeria monocytogenes: Overview and Targeting Advances
Abushahba, Mostafa F.N.
Hussein, Asmaa A.A.
Seleem, Mohamed N.
Hassanein, Raafat A.
Listeria monocytogenes is a serious foodborne zoonotic pathogen capable of causing gastroenteritis and severe systemic infections such as septicemia, meningitis or abortion in the infected individuals what is called listeriosis. The bacterium is reported as the third leading cause of death among the foodborne pathogens preceded by nontyphoidal Salmonella spp. and Toxoplasma gondii. The power to tolerate a wide range of temperatures is considered the most prominent trait distinguishing it from the other foodborne pathogens. Within the infected host, the bacteria harbor inside macrophages and jump from cell to another without leaving the safeguarding milieu of the host's cells utilizing a set of genes including hly (listeriolysin O), plcA (phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase c), plcB (phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase C) and actA (actin-assembly inducing protein). In addition to the health concerns associated with antibiotics, treatment failure likely occurs among listeriosis-infected persons especially with the inability of most antibiotics to access intracellular replicative niches and achieve the optimum therapeutic concentrations within the infected cells. Recently, one novel choice, peptide nucleic acid (PNA), has been emerged to target this bacterium as a model of targeting intracellular pathogens with anti-sense agents. PNA is a one of the DNA analogues which works via specific inhibition of bacterial gene expression.

Maggot Therapy and its Implications in Veterinary Medicine: An Overview
Mohammad Dar, Latief
Hussain, Syed Aashiq
Abdullah, Swaid
Rashid, Adil
Parihar, Shradha
Rather, Faroze Ahmad
Alternative therapies to conventional wound management are available now-a-days to facilitate faster wound healing without any complications. Among various alternative therapies, it has been well established that maggot therapy can be used successfully to treat chronic long-standing infected wounds which previously failed to respond to conventional treatment. Maggot therapy employs the use of freshly emerged, sterile larvae of the common greenbottle fly, Phaenicia (Lucilia) sericata, and is a form of artificially induced myiasis in a controlled clinical situation. Maggot therapy, however, is used relatively little in veterinary medicine. Nevertheless, concern over antibiotic resistance and the increase in demand for organic husbandry and residue-free meat and milk, suggest that it is an option which merits further consideration. In this review article, authors’ discuss the role of maggots and their preparation for veterinary medical use.

An overview on Pregnancy Associated Glycoproteins in Cattle and Buffalo
A., Jerome
Accurate pregnancy detection is one of the prime requisites in reproductive management of domestic animals as it indirectly depicts fertility of the animal. Early pregnancy detection in animals is important so as to monitor reproductive losses. Though hormonal profiling of progesterone is an important method of pregnancy detection in domestic species; it usually results in false positivity. Pregnancy marker(s), which is embryo specific and depicts presence and viability of the embryo, should be considered ideal candidate for developing pregnancy diagnostics. Pregnant Associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) are potential biomarker in early pregnancy in cattle and buffalo. They belong to the aspartic proteinase family but proteolytically inactive due to key mutations. In this review, the scope and prospects of pregnancy associated glycoproteins as potential pregnancy biomarkers in cattle and buffalo species, is discussed.

Tiwari, R.
Sharma, M.C.
Immune mediated musculoskeletal diseases are important diseases of dogs which occur due to failure of immunoregulation or to an abnormal immune response. As clinical signs of these disorders overlap with numerous other syndromes of musculoskeletal system, the confirmative diagnosis is difficult. Glucocorticoids are the basis of therapy with adjunct therapy of cytotoxic drugs, chrysotherapy which require continuous monitoring of patient. Generally there is no curative treatment in most of the disorders due to recurrence of disease after withdrawal of treatment.

Phage Therapy an Effective Remedy Against Drug-Resistant Bugs and Hard to Treat Bacterial Infections-A Review
Rather, Mudasir Ali
Hassan, Mir Nadeem
Rather, Maqsood Ahmad
The injudicious use of antibiotics not only in medicine but also to promote the growth of farm animals has led to the development of antibiotic resistance against many bacterial diseases. One of the remedy against such drug resistant bacterial infections is the application of phage (Bacteriophage) therapy. Phage therapy involves using phages or their products as bioagents for the treatment or prophylaxis of bacterial infections. There are two types of phages based on their type of life cycle: the lytic and the lysogenic phages. Only the lytic phages are used in phage therapy, because of the disadvantages of lysogenic pahges (Superinfection immunity, lysogenic conversion, specialized transduction). Apart from live phages the phage byproducts like phage lysins can also be used specifically against certain bacterial infections. The reports indicate that appropriate administration of living phages can be used to treat lethal infectious diseases caused by bacteria, like Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella spp. and Staphylococcus aureus etc. In the coming time the phage therapy will compensate for unavoidable complications of antimicrobial therapy, particularly the appearance of multidrug resistance bacteria (super bugs).

Yaqoob Wani, Mohammad
Piglets that are born dead may have died at any time during the farrowing process or before. Causes of stillborn piglets can be divided into infectious and noninfectious. Infectious causes perhaps are overemphasized but are certainly important in epidemic situations. Noninfectious causes of stillborns are most common in endemic situations. Genetic, maternal, piglet and environmental factors can all affect the stillborn rate. The review attempts to describe the causes of stillborn piglets and the ways to mitigate them.

Non-protein coding RNAs: making their own path losing translation
Mishra, Chinmoy
Samal, Lipismita
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) can serve genetic, catalytic, structural, and regulatory roles. Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes make transcripts that function directly as RNA, rather than encoding proteins. Transfer RNA and ribosomal RNA are well known examples of non-coding RNA. Around 98% of all transcriptional output in humans is non-coding RNA. RNA-mediated gene regulation is widespread in higher eukaryotes and complex genetic phenomena like RNA interference, co-suppression, transgene silencing, imprinting, methylation, and possibly position-effect variegation and transvection, all involve intersecting pathways based on or connected to RNA signaling. Due to its high abundance, non-coding RNAs have several important biological roles in living organisms.

Application of Molecular Tools for Gut Health of Pet Animals: A Review
Samal, Lipismita
Pattanaik, A. K.
Mishra, Chinmoy
Gut health is an important facet of well being of pet animals; it is in this context, various nutritional and biotechnological approaches have been proposed to manipulate the gut health by specifically targeting the colonic microbiota. Nutritional approaches include supplementation of antioxidants and phytochemicals like flavonoids, isoflavonoids and carotenoids. Biotechnological approaches include supplementation of probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics in the diet and potential application of molecular tools like fluorescent in situ hybridization, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, quantitative dot blot hybridization, and restriction fragment length polymorphism etc. in studying the fecal microbiota composition. Post-genomic and related technologies, i.e. genomics, nutrigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and epigenomics in the study of gastrointestinal tract also put forward challenges for nutritionists and microbiologists to elucidate the complex interactions between gut microbiota and host.

Management of Sub-acute Ruminal Acidosis in Dairy Cattle for Improved Production: A Review
Hussain, Kafil
Ul Islam, Amjad
Gupta, Surinder Kumar
Sub-acute ruminal acidosis (SARA) is a well-recognized digestive disorder that is an increasing health problem in most dairy herds. Feeding diets high in grain and other highly fermentable carbohydrates to dairy cows increases milk production, but also increases the risk of SARA. Sub-acute ruminal acidosis is defined as periods of moderately depressed ruminal pH, from about 5.5 to 5.0. Sub-acute ruminal acidosis may be associated with laminitis and other health problems resulting in decreased production. Dairy herds experiencing SARA will have a decreased efficiency of milk production, impaired cow health and high rates of involuntary culling. Reduced ruminal efficiency, liver and lung abscesses, and laminitis are all thought to be related to SARA. The risk of developing SARA can be reduced by adopting a feeding regime, which balances ruminal buffering with the production of volatile fatty acids from fermentation of carbohydrates. Recommendations made for effective characterization, important management factors and good management practices of SARA in dairy cattle are further highlighted.

Bayesian Statistics: Concepts and Applications in Animal Breeding – A Review

G.S., Sonawane
Mishra, C
Singh, R.K.
Statistics uses two major approaches- conventional (or frequentist) and Bayesian approach. Bayesian approach provides a complete paradigm for both statistical inference and decision making under uncertainty. Bayesian methods solve many of the difficulties faced by conventional statistical methods, and extend the applicability of statistical methods. It exploits the use of probabilistic models to formulate scientific problems. To use Bayesian statistics, there is computational difficulty and secondly, Bayesian methods require specifying prior probability distributions. Markov Chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) methods were applied to overcome the computational difficulty, and interest in Bayesian methods was renewed. In Bayesian statistics, Bayesian structural equation model (SEM) is used. It provides a powerful and flexible approach for studying quantitative traits for wide spectrum problems and thus it has no operational difficulties, with the exception of some complex cases. In this method, the problems are solved at ease, and the statisticians feel it comfortable with the particular way of expressing the results and employing the software available to analyze a large variety of problems.

Transdermal Drug Delivery System in Veterinary Practice: An Overview
Ansari, A. A.
Dar, A. A.
Dimri, U.
Kumar, P.
Sharma, M. C.
In veterinary practice drug delivery strategies are complicated by species diversity, body size variations, cost constraints and level of convenience. A new frontier in the administration of therapeutic drugs to veterinary species is transdermal drug delivery system. It implies topical drug application to achieve systemic pharmacological effects. Its efficacy is primarily dependent upon the barrier properties of the targeted species skin, as well as the ratio of the area of the patch to the species total body mass needed to achieve effective systemic drug concentrations. The candidate drug must have sufficient lipid solubility to be considered for transdermal delivery. The adhesive of the patches is critical to the safety, efficacy and quality of the product. This novel drug delivery system offers many advantages over conventional oral and invasive methods of drug delivery like reduction in hepatic first pass metabolism, enhancement of therapeutic efficiency, maintenance of steady plasma level of the drug and improved owner compliance. With efficient experimental designs and available transdermal patch technology, there are no obvious hurdles for the development of effective therapeutic agents in veterinary practice.

In veterinary clinics, veterinarians are faced with several conditions that affect the skin, and among them are the wounds that are caused by burns, traumas, surgeries or infections. Wounds are a significant source of animal welfare problems and represent an inconvenience to animals and owners due to the multiple applications of their treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new biocompatible materials capable of accelerating wound healing. In this context, biomaterials have arisen, and more precisely biological membranes, which is a polymeric device used for treating wounds and have been gaining relevance in the scientific community for their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. They often do not require daily reapplications, thus representing a good alternative to topical formulations such as ointments, creams and sprays. This review aimed to address the use of biological membranes in skin wound healing, facilitating understanding by veterinarians and highlighting recent studies using this group of biomaterials in healing skin wounds in animals.

The Potentials of Two Underutilized Acidic Fruits (Averrhoa bilimbi L. and Phyllanthus acidus L.) as Phytobiotics for Broiler Chickens
Sugiharto, Sugiharto
Department of Animal Science, Faculty of Animal and Agricultural Sciences, Diponegoro University, Tembalang Campus, Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia
           Phytobiotics have attracted considerable interest as the substitutes for subtherapeutic antibiotics in broiler production. Among the phytobiotics, Averrhoa bilimbi L. and Phyllanthus acidus L. fruits seem to have potential to be developed. Both underutilized acidic fruits contain several bioactive components that may serve as antimicrobial agents, antioxidants, immunomodulators and acidifier, which are beneficial for broiler performance and health. The bioactive components responsible for as well as the mechanisms through which the components exert the phytobiotic activities are highlighted in the present review. The current application of A. bilimbi and P. acidus fruits in broiler production is also presented. Overall, although A. bilimbi and P. acidus fruits show phytobiotic properties, they are still less utilized by the farmers to improve the growth and health performance of broiler chickens

Buffalo is a multipurpose and economically important animal due to the demand for its products (milk and meat). Thus, the use of reproductive biotechnologies is important to maximize the diffusion of genetically superior dams and sires. After the unsatisfactory results of the Multiple Ovulation and Embryo Transfer, the combined effect of ovum pick-up from live animals and in vitro embryo production (IVEP) has great potential to dissemination of selected genetics in buffalo herds, contributing to an increase in meat and milk production. During the past two decades, considerable advances have been made in IVEP following continuous scientific effort, but at the moment their cost is not satisfactory for commercial purpose. This technique is refined day by day in order to improve the buffalo embryo quality. Thus, the objective of this paper was to review the state-of-art in IVEP, as well as discussed the emerging technologies that can contribute to improving the results of this technology in buffalo species.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (nCOVID-19) is a newly emerging disease first discovered in Wuhan city, China, in December 2019. Currently, nCOVID-19 has become a global health concern causing severe respiratory tract infection besides animal coronaviruses includes transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) and mouse hepatitis virus (MHV). Implementing of surveillance system requires coordination and collaboration between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), local, and state public health authorities. Outbreak surveillance can help to mitigate the further spreading of coronaviruses in the environment. nCOVID-19 can persist on inanimate surfaces up to 9 days whilst animal coronaviruses (TGEV and MHV) can persist in the environment for ≥ 28 days at 4°C. Effective surface disinfection may help to ensure an early containment and prevention of further viral spread. Some biocidal agents efficiently inactivate coronavirus infectivity within minutes such as ethanol 70%, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) 0.5%, and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl2) 0.1%. This review article was designed to address the environmental surveillance system focused on the persistence of new coronavirus (nCOVID-19) and animal coronaviruses (TGEV and MHV) on the environmental surfaces, factors affecting their survival, and assess the efficiency of different biocidal agents against coronaviruses to establish an efficient control strategy.

Replacing Subjective Assessment of Dairy Cows with Objective Measures
Sagwa Barasa, Caleb
Animal Breeding and Genomics Group, Department of Animal Science, Egerton University, P.O. BOX 536 – 20115 EGERTON
In 2067 dairy farms in developing countries will be modernized and automated systems will replace much of the manual labour on farms. Traditionally, livestock management decisions have been based on almost entirely on observations, judgement, and experience of the farmer. However, such manual systems are inherently subjective, labour intensive, time consuming, invasive and unreliable. Today technology-oriented approaches are widely in use in animal agriculture. New data obtained using fast, real time, and affordable objective measures are becoming more readily available to aid farm level monitoring, awareness, and decision making. Computer vision technology and image analysis, digital twins, artificial intelligence, sensors, big data, and machine learning are a game changer in the livestock industry. This review aims at highlighting the main areas where digital technologies for improved animal monitoring and welfare are most applicable in dairy animals. In particular, body condition scoring, lameness detection, mastitis diagnosis, oestrus detection and pregnancy diagnosis. The environmental sustainability of digital technologies is also discussed. The application of technology offers new possibilities to realize food safety and quality, efficient and sustainable animal farming, healthy animals, guaranteed wellbeing and acceptable environmental impact of livestock production.

In the poultry industry, using antibiotics as growth promoters has been found to significantly increase feed conversion efficiency and growth performance. Nevertheless, excessive use of antibiotics in the poultry production cycle may also lead to antimicrobial resistance in both poultry and humans. With regard to food safety reasons, most developed countries have banned the use of antibiotics in all animal feeds. Consequently, it may be necessary to explore other preventive alternatives for disease prevention and to stimulate fast growth rate in poultry. The interest in using phytobiotics as an alternative feed additive in poultry diets has increased following its natural, residue-free, and less toxic properties in contrast to synthetic antibiotics. Therefore, this review shed the light on the influences of using phytobiotics as a feed additive in commercial poultry diets and the results on the production performances and health status. Phytobiotics like cinnamon, cumin, oregano, clove, thyme, rosemary, sage, green tea, garlic, fenugreek, pepper, ginger, and other plant mixtures were found to consist of growth-promoting properties that enhance digestibility, stimulate feed intake, and improve growth in poultry. The carry-over effect leads to improved carcass characteristics and meat quality as value-added products. Additionally, various studies have also reported that some plant extracts from thyme, turmeric, lemon, green tea, cinnamon, cumin, wild mushroom, and garlic have antimicrobial effects as well as immunomodulatory function when they are complemented in poultry diets. In summary, phytobiotics can be used effectively to replace antibiotics as feed additives in enhancing production and health performances of poultry for food security while preventing antibiotic resistance.

The knowledge of the proboscis morphology is of a particular significance, especially in the field of comparative veterinary anatomy and rhinology. The proboscis is a specialized nasal organ, which has several anatomical modifications that enable the animal to withstand the adverse climatic conditions. Remarkably, the anatomy of the camel nose is distinct in comparison with ruminant and other domestic animals. This has been attributed to the essential proboscideal criteria to which the camel nose possesses. However, little is known about the proboscis-like structure of the dromedarian nose. Therefore, the aim of the study was to elucidate the idea that camel nose is best interpreted as a sort of proboscis.

Caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) is a disease of sheep and goats caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis. Members of Corynebacterium, Mycobacterium, Nocardia, and Rhodococcus are the CMNR group of bacteria, which are so-called because they possess an outer cell membrane containing mycolic acids (MAs). This outer membrane presumably acts as a permeability barrier that imparts high drug resistance levels to some members of this group. The distinguishing feature of C. pseudotuberculosis is that MAs and phospholipase D (PLD) encoded by a β-corynephage in its genome are putative carriers of the toxins. Almost all members of the CMNR group possess a mycolic acid layer or mycomembrane around the cell wall, which is the main virulence determinant and plays a vital role in bacterial survival. Both PLD and MAss are virulence factors that play crucial roles in the pathogenesis of C. pseudotuberculosis. Phospholipases are glycophospholipid-hydrolyzing enzymes that facilitate bacterial dissemination in the host and assist the bacteria to evade phagocytosis by depletion of complement and impaired chemotaxis of neutrophils. MAs are waxy coat that protects the bacterium from hydrolytic enzymes within lysosomes and enables bacteria to skip phagocytosis and survive within the host cell. This review presents current research information on the mycolic acids of C. pseudotuberculosis and their role in the pathogenesis of the disease which includes host cell responses of acute-phase proteins, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and reproductive hormones changes and cellular tissue changes.

Roles of Soluble Adenylyl Cyclase in cAMP Synthesis in Animal Cells
Nguyen, Thi Mong Diep
Quy Nhon University, Quy Nhon City, Binh Dinh Province, Viet Nam
The second messenger cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP) synthesis is catalyzed by adenylyl cyclases (ACs). The second messenger cAMP participates in many physiological processes in cells. All eukaryotic adenylyl cyclases (transmembrane adenylyl cyclase and soluble adenylyl cyclases) belong to class III. Soluble adenylyl cyclase was identified in many studies as a widely expressed intracellular source of cAMP in mammalian and non-mammalian cells. Soluble adenylyl cyclase is evolutionary, structurally, and biochemically distinct from the G-protein-responsive transmembrane adenylyl cyclase. sAC is distributed throughout the cytoplasm and it may be present in the nucleus and in mitochondria. sAC has been confirmed to be a bicarbonate sensor in a variety of mammalian cell types. Here I review the physiological role of soluble adenylyl cyclase in different mammalian and non-mammalian tissues. These data promote further research to clarify the exact roles of soluble adenylyl cyclase in the development of the biological activity of normal cells in the body and the therapeutic implications.  Â

Paratuberculosis prevalence, economic and public health significance in animal populations is well documented in most of the developed countries. In African countries however, information on paratuberculosis is sparse mainly due to lack of surveillance and research on the disease. In Tanzania, the disease was first reported in Kilimanjaro in year 1960 and up until year 2014, different cases have been reported in almost all agro ecological zones of the country, but there is no epidemiological information to link the cases. This creates an impression that the disease is absent in Tanzania. However, it is recently realized that in any African country that has done some surveillance, the disease has been confirmed to be present. The aim of the present review is to revisit the trend of paratuberculosis in Tanzania from 1960 when the disease was first reported to the current situation in year 2022. Attempt is made to highlight the possible link between the cases and suggest future strategies to enable the country grips with the disease. It is anticipated that this review is going to raise awareness on paratuberculosis in Tanzania and catalyze the institution of paratuberculosis surveillance and control programs in Tanzania.

Recent Developments in Sheep Meat Research Worldwide- a Review
Gurunathan, Kandeepan
ICAR-National Research Center on Meat, Hyderabad, India.
The sheep meat production system contributes to the economy of sheep farmers to a greater extent. Considering the value of sheep meat, several researchers have attempted strategically to study various domains of sheep meat production and its marketing. The research on mutton production was mainly oriented to lean meat and fatty acid profile. Sheep meat marketing research has covered aspects of consumer demand and education. Studies reveal that the industrial meat production system in sheep contributes more water foot print. Researchers have also assessed the greenhouse gas emission of sheep meat production. Sheep carcass quality studies evaluated the effects of gender, production systems, body weight, age, hot and cold carcass. Sheep meat quality studies were majorly focused on the amino acid, fatty acid profiles, and sensory characteristics. Sheep meat flavor was thoroughly researched by a few investigators. The microbial profile of sheep carcass and meat indicated various microbial contaminants in the supply chain. Several antioxidants were used by researchers for improving the quality of meat and meat products. Antimicrobials such as metal oxides and essential oils were evaluated for effective sheep meat preservation. The heavy metal contaminants in sheep were also investigated by a few researchers. Different DNA and radioisotope methods have been explored for species and sex differentiation in sheep meat and meat products. The sheep meat products were assessed by researchers for various technological, nutritional, and sensory characteristics. The economic value of sheep meat by-products was calculated by researchers for their potential importance in the value chain. Parasitic meat borne diseases were found as the common zoonotic problem with sheep meat. The export potential of sheep meat and bottlenecks have also been studied by a few researchers. Overall, the broad dimensions of sheep meat research worldwide has a profound link with the economy of the nations.

Graviola (Annona muricata) is one major member of the plant family, Annonaceae. It is cultivated in the tropical zones, particularly in Central and South America. Graviola is worldwide known for its natural medicinal effects. In this regards, graviola extracts are used in the treatment of different kinds of cancers such as pancreatic, breast, prostate, lung, and blood cancers. The exact mechanisms behinds the anticancer effects of graviola are not clearly defined. However, it was assumed that graviola-induced apoptotic effects, necrosis, and modulation of the proliferation patterns of the cancer cells are major mechanistic effects of Graviola. Interestingly, graviola is also known for its other beneficial effects such as its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic activities, and its wound healing effects. This mini review was undertaken to update and summarize the pharmacological activities of graviola.

Goats have made an important contribution to household income and food security, especially in rural areas. Goats have provided meat and milk as high-quality protein sources, and are an integral part of rural livelihoods and an insurance against future emergencies. Nearly 19.22 million heads of goats are distributed throughout the Islands of Indonesia, most of which belong to indigenous breeds, which possess phenotypic and genetic diversities that are indispansable for their conservation and genetic improvement programs. Despite their considerable diversities, not all the indigenous goats are fully characterized and harnessed. Unfortunately, some are classified as at risk of extinction. Since small-scale farmers with traditional production systems dominate in the country, goat productivity is relatively low. But the indigenous goats are still important genetic resources due to their adaptive traits that are relevant to climate change and low maintenance. This review gives an overview of the current knowledge, production system, and future improvement of the indigenous goat genetic resources in Indonesia.

Listeriosis in Rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus): A Significant Bacterial Disease with an Emerging Zoonosis
Abd El-Ghany, Wafaa
Poultry Diseases Department, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University, Giza, 12211, Egypt.
Rabbit’s rearing becomes one of the most important source of income in many countries world-wide. Rabbit’s meat has many advantageous over any time of meat and it is recommended especially for sick people. Rabbits are susceptible to some important bacterial diseases such as listeriosis which causes severe economic losses. Listeriosis is a disease caused by many species of Listeria which may be environmental saprophytes or sometimes pathogenic for mammals, birds, and humans. Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) is the most common cause of illness either in animals or humans. Infection with this bacterium usually occur in animals via ingestion, while in human via handling or consumption of uncooked or under-processed food. Most of signs in rabbits and humans are the same and including septicaemia especially in young, meningoencephalitis, and metritis and fetal mortality in pregnancy. Additionally, human may show the signs of severe febrile gastroenteritis due to food borne illness as well as skin and joint affections. Diagnosis of the disease depends mainly on the traditional methods of isolation and identification along with the recent molecular techniques for detection. Serological diagnosis is of little value. Prevention and control of listeriosis in rabbits are based on cleaning and disinfection of rabbit’s cages, using of specific antibiotic treatment, and application of some natural alternatives such as probiotics and phytobiotics. In human, avoidances of the possible causes of Listeria infection and stressors and administration of a specific drug is the must. Besides, improvement of the quality control measures in processing plants or during handling of food are essential to effectively prevent and control listeriosis associated with food-borne illness. Accordingly, this article focuses on listeriosis in rabbits regarding the pathogenesis and virulence of the causative agent, clinical picture in rabbits, zoonotic importance in human, laboratory diagnosis, and the different strategies used for the prevention and control of the disease.

What if we could detect disease before it manifested itself? While it may appear to be fantasy, it is currently being used in human and animal health by combining advanced computing power with artificial intelligence (AI). Machine learning (ML), a subfield of AI, is a recent approach for developing predictions in many areas of medical science through classification and regression. Using ML to solve veterinary data problems is still unusual. It can aid in farm decision-making processes. ML outperformed statistical models in disease prediction, which produce a high bias in most cases and reduce model reliability when assumptions are violated. Some challenges of ML, such as data size, algorithm tunability, and feature selection, must be considered in order to develop a good predictive model. This review aimed to discuss the role of ML in solving veterinary problems and spotting the light on overcoming the possible challenges, and to encourage the researchers to increase the application of ML over conventional methods.

Because of the growing dangers of viral infections, the use of herbal plant oils is gaining popularity among medical practitioners and large-scale livestock producers. Several studies have shown that herbal extracts could be used as an antiviral agent in animal feed or as a prophylaxis and remedy. Herbs, in addition to being a less expensive and safer alternative, may reduce the incidence of drug resistance and may modulate the immune system in the prevention of viral-related diseases. The main topic of this review is to focus on the antiviral and immunomodulatory potentials of thyme vulgaris and Ginseng, as well as their bioactive chemical components. The beneficial roles of the two herbaceous plant and their extracts upon avian viruses proofed in many earlier reports. Hence, the two herbs could have immune stimulant, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits as well as adjuvant effects with poultry vaccines.

Crustaceans such as shrimp and crab are considered as a rich source of protein, omega 3 fatty acids and trace elements. However, they are exposed to a vast array of xenobiotics during their lifetime such as heavy metals, pesticides, and dioxins. Moreover, crustaceans are also implicated in the transmission of many foodborne pathogens such as Aeromonas hydrophila, Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio parahemolyticus, and others. They are also rich in biogenic amines such as histamine and cadaverine, and they might cause severe allergic reactions in highly susceptible people. This review summarized the current scenario of potential hazards associated with the consumption of crustaceans in Egypt.

Rabbit meat and offal are considered as valuable sources of high biological value animal protein. Rabbit meat is rich in essential amino acids, low in cholesterol and contains considerable amounts of trace elements such as calcium, magnesium, and zinc. However, rabbit meat is also implicated in the transmission of foodborne pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella spp., E. coli, and Pseudomonas spp. Few reports had reviewed the microbiological quality of rabbit meat either worldwide or in Egypt. In this review, we will summarize the available literature about the microbiological status of rabbit meat and offal. Moreover, the potential human health risks associated with the occurrence of such foodborne pathogens in rabbit meat, and their effect on the shelf life of meat will be discussed. In addition, suggestions on how to improve the microbiological quality of rabbit meat and to extend its shelf life will also be introduced.

Bleomycin (BL) is a glycopeptide antibiotic derived from the bacterium Streptomyces verticillus that is commonly used in the treatment of human cancer. However, BL has been linked to several cases of male infertility in humans and animals. Vitamin E requires vascular transport to the liver after absorption, which is primarily facilitated by tocopheroltransfer protein. Vitamin E acts as a peroxyl radical scavenger as an antioxidant, preventing free radical propagation in tissues by reacting with them to form a tocopheryl radical, which is reduced by a hydrogen donor and returns to its reduced state. Because of its solubility, it is incorporated into cell membranes, protecting them from oxidative damage. Vitamin E plays critical roles in improving reproductive efficiency and mitigating the negative effects of several reproductive toxicants. Selenium is a trace element found in soil, water, and certain foods. It is thought to be an essential component that actively participates in a variety of metabolic pathways and plays a variety of important roles in the body. Among these functions are participation in various enzyme systems and anti-oxidative cellular processes. Selenium is required for the detoxification of harmful metals from the human body, foetal breathing, energy transfer reactions, and sperm cell formation. It is thought that a lack of selenium contributes to male infertility because it causes degradation in the testicular tissues, which leads to impaired active sperm motility as the first sign of impending infertility. In this review, we will summarize the recent findings related to BL-adverse effects of male fertility and the beneficial effects of selenium and vitamin E on the reproduction and male fertility.

Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, and facultative anaerobic bacterium that is widely distributed in the environment. Commonly, B. cereus is a soil occupant and is generally isolated from food and food products. It is a human pathogen that causes two variant types of gastrointestinal diseases: diarrheal and emetic. Diseases caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria are difficult to be treated. In addition, group of B. cereus has several virulence factors, which play their roles in pathogenesis, infectivity and its capability to form biofilms. B. cereus biofilm is grown on medical devices either abiotic or biotic surfaces. This biofilm avoids the bacteria from the effect of antibiotics and host immune system leading to chronic infections, persistence and mortalities. Thus, it is necessary to explore new antiquorum and antibiofilm agents better than the conventional therapy to eliminate the biofilm that reflect on controlling B. cereus infections. The present review will discuss B. cereus virulence attributes, antibiotic resistance profiles, and their ability to produce biofilm as well as its molecular regulation. The application of the antiquorum and antibiofilm approaches for infection control will be illustrated as well. Finally, we will spot the light on their consequence in food industry loses and human health risk.

Complexities of Molecular Identification of γ-herpesviruses: Lessons from MCFV
Turin, Lauretta

Department of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences, University of Milan, Via dell’Università 6, 26900 Lodi, Italy.
The Herpesviridae family is subdivided into three subfamilies, namely α-herpersvirinae, β-herpesvirinae and γ-herpesvirinae. All members of the family are characterized by a common structure consisting of a large linear double-stranded DNA genetic core packaged into a proteic icosahedral capsid and further enclosed in a phospholipidic bilayer envelope of cellular origin. Herpesviruses are characterized, on one side, by a high stability of the genome during virus replication, however, on the other side by a high capability to change rapidly in response to natural evolutionary selecting pressure. Therefore, there is a continuous emergence and establishment of new viruses. In this contest γ-herpesviruses, whose contribution to disease outbreaks in wildlife population has often been underestimated, pose a serious problem due to their ability to cross species barriers, infect new hosts and give rise to newly emerged viruses or virus variants in reservoirs. The problem is exacerbated by the absence of vaccines and effective treatments, such as for Malignant Catarrhal Fever (MCF) in cattle or MCF-like diseases, caused by the Malignant Catarrhal Fever Viruses (MCFVs). MCFV can infect both livestock and wild animals sporadically, however when it does, it can cause clinical disease with important welfare implications, dramatic pathological changes and often has death as outcome. Due to the inability to isolate the majority of the γ-herpesviruses in vitro, their detection and characterization necessarily involve molecular methodologies aimed at diagnosing, identifying and resolving their phylogenetic origins and the evolutionary relationship with the host species. This information is ultimately necessary to improve the control of the disease spread, and to better identify the source of outbreaks, which can be seriously detrimental to zoological collections, especially for endangered species. This review provides an overview of the currently available methodologies applied for identification and characterization of MCFVs, critically describes benefits and disadvantages of these, recognises the gaps to be addressed and identifies future diagnostic opportunities.

Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis caused by species of the genus Sporothrix that has stood out in recent years, mainly in Brazil. Its importance for public health as an emerging disease is mainly associated with zoonotic transmission by domestic cats, which have a high fungal load on skin lesions, facilitating the dissemination of the agent. Classical transmission is caused by traumatic inoculation of the fungus in a contaminated environment. Propagation between animals occurs due to close contact between cats with other cats or dogs and for humans associated with bites, scratches, and interaction with exudate from infected lesions. The clinical manifestations in felines are variable and can present as localized or fixed, disseminated, cutaneous-lymphatic, and systemic. In human patients, mainly immunosuppressed, extracutaneous forms can occur, evolving even to fatal cases. Early diagnosis is essential to ensure that preventive measures are employed for owners, with the isolation of the etiological agent in culture being considered the gold standard. The lack of strategic plans, adequate control measures, failure to recognize and neglect the disease increases the incidence of cases, especially in more precarious population groups. Thus, due to its importance in public and animal health, the objective of this review was to highlight recent advances concerning the feline disease.

The bovine sector represents an important part of the animal resources in Egypt, as it plays important role in supplying humans with a considerable part of their daily needs of animal-derived proteins via their milk and meat. However, such animal species can be exposed during their life to a wide range of digestive disorders, which affect animal performance and productivity. Ultrasonography plays an essential role in the accurate and rapid diagnosis of several diseases affecting cattle and buffaloes. In this review, we will highlight the role of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of digestive disorders in cattle and buffaloes.

With increased consumer knowledge about the relationship between diet and a healthy lifestyle in recent decades, there has been an increase in awareness and demand for efficient protein sources. Rabbit meat is rich in easily digestible protein, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), vitamins, and minerals (such as calcium, magnesium, and zinc), as well as being low in fat, sodium, and cholesterol, which makes it of good edible and nutritional value, so it needs to be handled properly. Rabbit meat, on the other hand, has been associated with the spread of microbial contamination (such as Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli and Salmonella species) that may originate from the animal itself, equipment, workers, or the surrounding environment. Each effort must be made to keep rabbit meat free of contaminants that could be harmful to humans. Few studies had been conducted, either internationally or in Egypt, to examine the physicochemical and microbiological characteristics of rabbit meat. We shall compile existing data on the quality of rabbit meat in this review. Furthermore, the potential hazards that influence the physicochemical and microbiological qualities and shelf life, as well as the proposals for decontamination trials to enhance the sensory attributes and shelf life of rabbit meat, will be presented.

Diabetes is a series of metabolic conditions which threaten public health, caused by a defect in insulin secretion by the pancreatic β-cells or insulin-sensitive tissues that fail to respond to insulin leads to hyperglycemia, which causes a series of metabolic signaling pathways leading to inflammation, cytokine production, cell death, and diabetic complications. Recent research has pointed to Histidine-containing dipeptides (HDPs) to be one of the routes to enhancing diabetic complications. HDPs are synthesized in muscle and are abundantly found in mammals and other vertebrates. L-carnosine (CAR), Anserine, and homocarnosine are dipeptides produced by vertebrate muscles. Carnosine and anserine have both antiglycation and antioxidant activity that help to enhance metabolic dysregulation caused by diabetes. In addition, homocarnosine has anti-inflammatory activity, as well as the ability to reduce DNA damage and advanced glycation end products (AGEs). This review will focus on the protective effects of HDPs against diabetic complications, especially carnosine.

Plenty of restorative plants including phenols, essential oils, flavonoids, glycosides, and amides, have been assessed for therapeutic effects against several diseases especially liver diseases. Pentoxifylline (PTX), a methyl-xanthine spin-off with a variety of anti-inflammatory and protective actions in animals. PTX has been found effective for many disease conditions. PTX is an immune-modulatory agent used in the treatment of immune-mediated diseases blood vessels inflammation such as cutaneous lupus in canine and navicular disease in horses. It also has hepato-protective effect, so it could be used to treat liver fibrosis and embolism in pet animals. Moreover, it could be used in the treatment of vessels ulcers through improving healing and microcirculation. This review highlighted numerous vital characteristics of PTX and its therapeutic role in various diseases in pet animals.

Fish is considered as important source of animal derived protein, omega-3-fatthy acids, minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, iodine, and vitamins. Among the fish species, tilapia nilotica is the most famous fish in Egypt due to its ease culturing, short production cycle, cheap price, and therefore play fundamental roles in food security, particularly in the human supply of the anumal-derived protein. Fish during its production till delivery to the consumer's table might be exposed to a vast array of microbial contaminants either originated from its surrounding eniveronment or via cross contamination from the angler's hands, during transportation, and storage. Therefore, tilapia might act as a potential source of spreading of foodborne pathogens to the consumers. However, few reports had investigated the microbal quality of tilapia, particularly in Egypt. Therefore, this review was undertaken to report literatures studying the prevalence of some foodborne pathogens in tilapia fish in Egypt, the factors that affect the microbial quality of the fish, and some recommendations in order to extend the shelflife and improve the microbial quality of Tilapia nilotica. This reviw concluded that tilapia is eligible for contamination with a vast array of microorganisms such as enterobacteriacae, Staphylococcus aureus, Shewanella putrefaciens, Corynebacterium urealyticum, Aeromonas hydrophila, and Flavobacterium spp. Therefore, it is highly recommended to have efficient cooking of fish either via boiling, grilling, panfrying, dipping in liquid smokes, irradiation, ozonization, and addition of smone natural addirives such as lemon juice.

Bacillus cereus is a Gram positive, facultative anaerobic bacterium characterized by large rod- shaped cells and an ability to form heat-resistant endospores. Because this bacterium is so widely distributed throughout nature and is frequently found in soil, it is naturally present in a wide variety of food products of both animal and plant origin. The presence of B. cereus and its virulence factors   in dairy products may result in food poisoning and other illnesses. B. cereus causes two types of intestinal illness: emetic (vomiting) and diarrheal. Furthermore, the bacterium causes a variety of systemic and local infections in both immunosuppressed and immunocompetent persons. Different toxins and pathogenic factors like nonhemolytic enterotoxin Nhe, hemolytic enterotoxin Hbl, enterotoxin FM and cytotoxin K are accountable for diarrheal syndrome, meanwhile the depsipeptide cereulide toxin causes emetic syndrome. Because of its genetic similarity to Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus thuringiensis, the ability to detect this pathogen in food is frequently difficult. We reviewed characters, virulent attributes, toxins profiles of this particular bacterium. Current control methods are limited so future control strategies must be developed.

Dairy products are responsible of contamination with multiple microorganisms by different ways during handling, processing, and production, thus it would be unfit for consumption and form a public health hazard. Food borne diseases become a great trouble containing an extensive range of disorders caused by viral, bacterial, parasitic, or even chemical contamination of food. That reflected a problem due to the massive use of traditional antibiotics in human and animal diseases treatment and from this time, the persisted development of new programs of antimicrobial agents has become of rising importance to medicine. Probiotics not only used in treating gastrointestinal disease, but also used in food industry as natural antimicrobial substances which have a lot of bacteriostatic or bactericidal effect against different food borne pathogens. Contamination by foodborne pathogen in foods represents a serious challenge that may lead to severe disorders as toxic infection, food poisoning and intoxication. These pathogens caused illness, mortality and product withdraws. In fact, attention the using of herbal products has increased during the recent decades. Plants play an significant role in human health, it is likely that 25% of modern medicine were originated directly or indirectly from herbs. Many compounds present in plants have been reported to be antimicrobial, allopathic antioxidants, biologically active and have bioregulatory properties that have been proven real anti-bacterial, insecticidal, antifungal, antiparasitic, anti-viral and antioxidants. Aromatic essential oils are used as flavouring and prevent the growth of microbial contaminants and mould in food industry. Recently, probiotic bacteria have been used as substitutes for antibiotics to treat or different prevent intestinal infections. Studies of using natural preservatives either alone or in combination with other alternative have been verified (as probiotic) not only to evaluate synergism but also to produce effective combinations. Finally, we will discuss the effect of probiotic and natural extract on hygienic quality of some dairy products.

Sheep meat including mutton and lamb and its edible offal are regarded as important sources of high quality animal protein, essential amino acids, vitamins and minerals. However, unsanitary handling of such meat sources during the slaughtering, dressing, evisceration, or further processing might contribute to contamination of meat with a vast array of microorganisms including those with public health significance such as E. coli, and Salmonella spp. In this review, we would like to highlight the role of sheep meat and offal as potential sources of the spread of E. coli, and Salmonella spp. It was clear that adoption of strict hygienic measure during the entire steps of the carcass preparation and processing as well as efficient cooking of such meat and edible offal are among the suggested strategies to prevent the possible contamination of sheep meat with foodborne pathogens.

Meat contamination is a problem that must be addressed since it can affect consumers' health. Standard acceptable limits for heavy metals in meat and organs have been established by many international organizations. Livestock including sheep, cattle, camels, and goats side by side with other poultry species are the most significant sources of meat for protein. Heavy metal contamination in animal products may be harmful to people's health. The earth's crust naturally contains heavy metals, but uncontrolled human activity has significantly changed their geochemical cycles and biological equilibrium. This causes a buildup of metals in animal tissue that contain secondary metabolites, which gives rise to a specific pharmacological action. Humans can have negative health effects from prolonged exposure to heavy metals as lead, cadmium, arsenic, and mercury. This review showed that most of the studies conducted in different countries on heavy metals were mostly in red meat, and the research was few in the cases of domesticated birds and very rare in game birds, although it is considered a good example for investigating heavy metals in the environment

In the aquatic environment, pollution with heavy metals is a major issue. Some of them are essential heavy metals because they play biological roles for aquatic organisms. Other heavy metals, however, are regarded as dangerous even at low concentrations. Heavy metal levels that are harmful may be caused by industrial, mining, and agricultural operations. Water contamination and changes to the physicochemical properties of the aquatic environment will result from this. The harmful toxic consequences of this pollution on fish raise questions about its possible impacts on human health. The most prevalent heavy metals are arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury, which are systemic toxicants and have an impact on human health. These metals are classified as carcinogens by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the international agency for research on cancer because they cause organ damage even at low exposure levels. This review was created to contribute to the understanding of the environmental impact, toxicology, and consequences of heavy metals on fish.

The flesh of the slaughtered animals is believed to be sterile. However, after slaughter, meat of different animal species is exposed to a vast array of microorganisms during processing of the carcasses. Carcass processing includes slaughtering, dressing, evisceration, quartering, and further transportation, and distribution. Several sources of microbial contamination might contribute to the microbial status of the different carcasses including internal sources such as the ruminal content of the animal, blood, hide and skin, and external sources such as butchers hands, clothes, knives, cutting boards, and abattoir environment including walls, floors, washing water, etc. One major task of the food safety sector is to ensure the hygienic measures adopted during all steps of meat processing. Therefore, this study was undertaken to review the microbial surface contaminants of the animal carcasses. This review concluded that efficient hygienic measures should be adopted during all steps of handling of the meat in order to obtain a high keeping quality meat with low initial microbial load.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is a psychotropic pathogenic bacterium that is considered one of the most common spoilage microorganisms related to seafood’s consumption. P. aeruginosa is widely distributed in nature and isolated from soil, plants, animals, and water. Because of its high resistance to a wide range of antibiotics, P. aeruginosa is more dangerous than other spoilage bacteria. It possesses a diverse set of virulence factors capable of causing severe and aggressive infections in humans and animals. Antibiotic resistance genes are easily transmitted to humans via contaminated seafood, resulting in a serious antibiotic resistance. The ability of P. aeruginosa to form a biofilm maintains its environmental survival and allows its quick adaptation to harsh environments. Therefore, for the benefit of customers and public health globally, the safety and bacteriological quality of commercially processed fish and its products are crucial.

Meat products are regarded as major sources of essential amino acids, minerals, and vitamins. However, during all stages of the processing of meat products, including the slaughter of the animal, dressing, evisceration, and subsequent transportation and distribution, may expose the product to a wide range of bacteria. The microbial community of the finished goods may be influenced by handling and raw materials used in the production of the meat products. The microbiological condition of meat products may be affected by a number of factors, including worker hands, clothing, knives, cutting boards, slaughterhouse and meat processing plant environments, including walls, floors, washing water, etc. Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) is considered as one important foodborne pathogen that is responsible for many cases of food poisoning among consumers worldwide. This study aimed at investigating the current scenario of the prevalence of L. monocytogenes in retailed meat products in Egypt and worldwide. The cited literatures in the current review demonstrated that effective sanitary practices should be used throughout all phases of handling meat to produce meat products with a high level of storage quality and free from L. monocytogenes.

Poultry meat and their meat products are considered as major sources of animal derived protein, essential amino acids, minerals, and vitamins. However, poultry meat might act as a vehicle for a vast array of xenobiotics such as heavy metals. The latter are specifically characterized by their bioaccumulation and biomagnification nature. Several toxic metals such as lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), and arsenic (As) have several toxicological implications if ingested. In Egypt, several avian species are consumed as meat sources including chicken, quails, ducks, and turkeys. In this review, we would like to throw the light on the current scenario of the contamination of the poultry meat with such toxic metals in Egypt and worldwide. Besides, the public health significance of such toxic metals was also discussed.

Azithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic subclass azalides. It is generated from erythromycin and has a 15-membered lactone ring thanks to the addition of a nitrogen atom that has been swapped with methyl. By interfering with their ability to synthesise proteins, it stops bacteria from expanding. It prevents the translation of mRNA by attaching to the bacterial ribosome's 50S subunit. Certain bacterial infections, most frequently those that result in middle ear infections, strep throat, pneumonia, typhoid, bronchitis, and sinusitis, are treated or prevented using azithromycin. Its main purpose in recent years has been to protect babies and those with weakened immune systems from bacterial infections. Additionally, it works well against some STDs, including chlamydia, cervicitis, and nongonococcal urethritis. Nearly a century has passed since the discovery of vitamin E (-tocopherol). The body prefers -tocopherol above the other eight vitamin E-related compounds found in the basic diet, despite the fact that all of them are peroxyl radical scavengers. The regulatory mechanisms that assist to retain -tocopherol and excrete the non-tocopherol forms are crucial to vitamin E's biological activity. Ataxia is a neurologic abnormality that is present in severe vitamin E insufficiency, and it can lead to death. Selenium is critically important to maintaining health. It is a crucial part of various important metabolic processes, such as the metabolism of thyroid hormones, antioxidant defense mechanisms, and immunological function. Therefore, there are a number of potential public health ramifications of the drop in blood selenium content in several parts of the world, particularly in light of the high frequency of chronic diseases including cancer and cardiovascular disease. On the basis of blood glutathione peroxidase activity, recommended dietary intakes of selenium were first suggested ten years ago. Since then, 30 novel selenoproteins have been discovered, 15 of which have been purified such that their biological role can be characterized. This review gives an overview on the use of azithromycin, vitamin E, and selenium in health and disease.

A urethral stricture disease (USD), which is a restriction of the urethra brought on by scarring, effectively blocks the lower urinary system. By impairing the patient's capacity to pee, harming the entire urinary tract, and interfering with kidney function, this blockage can drastically diminish the patient's quality of life. Because of this, it is essential that urethral strictures, which can affect both men and women, are swiftly diagnosed and appropriately treated. Urethral stricture disease can be caused by iatrogenic injuries, due to idiopathic reasons, traumatic origin or due to inflammation. In this review we would like to throw the light on USD etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management.

Dexpanthenol, a vitamin from the B complex that is an alcoholic analogue of pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), is converted to pantothenic acid by certain enzymes and then circulated throughout the body as coenzyme-A. Pantothenic acid is rich in the liver, kidney, butter, almond and wheat bran. Dexpanthenol is administered topically as an ointment, emulsion, or solution at dosages of 2 to 5% to treat a variety of skin and mucosal conditions. Pantothenic acid is reported to act as anti-inflammatory, radical scavenger and assist in the wound healing. In this review, we want to shed some light on the dietary sources, medicinal significance, and wound healing applications of dexpanthenol.

Management Strategies for Sows and Piglets to Increase the Newborn Piglets’ Survivability Rate
Nguyen Hoang, Qui
Department of Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine, School of Agriculture and Aquaculture, Tra Vinh University, Tra Vinh Province, Vietnam.
In an effort to increase profitability, sows have been systematically selected for higher litter sizes. That may have led to an increase in pre-weaning mortality. To improve new-born survival, sows should be taken cared of stringently, especially the housing system and the sows’ nutritional management in both the gestation and the farrowing houses. Additionally, the sows’ reluctance to drink water after giving birth and the sow induction at the farrowing house can negatively affect both the new-born piglets and farrowed sows. Also inevitable is the extended farrowing duration associated with exceptionally large litters. Therefore, assistance during farrowing time is essential. The importance of colostrum intake should also be emphasized and that piglets should be fostered, if needed, to ensure that they have teats to suckle on. Moreover, milk replacer and creep feeding are also helpful options to aid in piglet’s nutrition requirement. Last but not least, farm caretakers who look after the piglets should be well-trained. This study looked into some strategies to improve piglet survivability by pointing out details in the routine activities at the farm.

Poultry meat including chicken ducks, geese, and quails are important sources of animal-derived protein, essential amino acids, and trace elements. However, poultry can be exposed to a wide array of environmental chemicals such as organochlorine pesticides (OCPs). Organochlorine insecticides, such as dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), have long been employed in agricultural and disease management. According to reports, DDT exposure may cause a multitude of negative impacts in humans. Such adverse health effects include teratogenic effects on fetus, carcinogenic effects, and reproductive disorders. Although being banned since 1970s, still OCPs are detected in foods of animal origin. Therefore, this review threw the light on the recent reports about the occurrence of OCPs residues in poultry meats and their potential adverse health effects on humans.

Trace elements pollution is a current One Health problem, affecting the health of all living beings (including humans and animals) and the environment itself. Metal(loid)s (as As, Cd, Co, Cu, Hg, Pb, and others) represent hazardous substances with implications in different organs and organic functions, in both acute or chronic exposures. The use of animal species as biomonitoring tools has been pointed out as an essential piece to correctly monitor and evaluate this pollution worldwide. Hedgehogs have been used for this purpose although in very few locations, despite the notable potential they have, due to several biological and ecological characteristics. Their food regiment (mainly insectivorous), distribution, resilience, trophic level and adaptability represent some examples of those positive aspects. This review intends to briefly summarize these hedgehogs’ attributes and critically analyse them as positive aspects that turn this species into a suitable bioindicator of exposure and effects of heavy metal(loid) pollution.

Anticoagulant rodenticides are biocides that interfere with normal blood clotting, inhibit the vitamin K cycle in the liver, and cause death by hemorrhages. Even though the main target of these compounds is rodents, they may affect non-target species such as nocturnal birds of prey that feed on those rodents. To study secondary exposure to ARs, select species that specialize in rodent prey, such as nocturnal birds of prey. Besides their specialized diet in rodents, nocturnal birds of prey are one of the most widely distributed birds in Europe and live in rural and non-rural habitats, making them excellent sentinel species for several studies’ ecotoxicology studies. There are numerous studies regarding secondary AR exposure in raptor species all around the world, but evidence for population-level effects is still absent. The objective of this review is to show how ARs have influenced wild nocturnal birds of prey in Europe in the last decades, most affected species, and in summary, explain how they act and the main clinical signals/ lesions that can be observed in poisoned birds. Overall, a total of 19 works were included in this review, between the years 1983 to 2021 that satisfied all literature criteria. These 19 papers corresponded to 44 observations of different species, regarding eight types of anticoagulant rodenticide. In the future, more caution is needed in the use of anticoagulants for rodent control where avian predators may be exposed to poisoned prey. Some combinations can be highly lethal to the predator, putting it at risk species that are already treated, therefore new eco-friendly alternatives should be found.

Chicken meat and meat products are considered as significant sources of high quality animal derived protein, essential amino acids, minerals, and vitamins. Besides, chicken meat is regarded as alternative cheap source of protein compared with the red meat. However, chicken meat can be contaminated with a vast array of microorganisms, and subsequently it can be implicated in many biological hazards such as bacterial food poisoning. Â The latter can be divided into bacterial foodborne infections including E. coli, Salmonella spp., Campylobacter spp., Listeria monocytogenes, Shiegella spp., and Yersinia spp. Bacterial foodborne intoxication including Staphylococcus aureus, and Clostridium botulinum. The third class of the bacterial food poisoning is foodborne toxicoinfection which involves Clostridium perfringens, and Bacillus cereus. This review threw the light on the current scenario of the contamination of the poultry meat with some bacterial hazards in Egypt and worldwide. Besides, the public health significance of such hazards was also discussed.

Fish and fish products represent major contributors to supply humans with part of their needs of the essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals, omega -3-fatty acids, and other needed micronutrients. However, fish and fish products are highly perishable foods that can easily spoiled and decomposed, possibly because of its cross contamination from the surrounding environment. Fish attracts a vast array of microorganisms, of these; mould and yeast represent a major sector of these microbiota, which by turn van lead to rapid decomposition of fish or even produce several toxicological implications if ingested. In this review, we will highlight the available literature about mould contamination of fish and fish products with a special reference to its public health significance.

Meat products are essential sources of high quality animal protein, essential amino acids, and trace elements such as copper, zinc, and iron, and vitamins such as vitamin B group. However, meat products can be exposed to contamination with several xenobiotics including heavy metals. Several species of the heavy metal group have no physiological functions and their intake via contaminated food and water is associated with several adverse health effects that might reach to even death. In this review, we will throw the light on the occurrence of heavy metals and the sources of contamination of the meat products with these chemicals. Moreover, the potential adverse health effects associated with these chemicals will be reviewed.

Beef, mutton, lamb, and camel are all high-quality protein sources in Egypt and around the world. Red meat with a protein content of about 20%, a high moisture content (75%), fat (5.2%), carbohydrate (1.5%), vitamins such as vitamin B complex, and minerals such as iron, zinc, calcium, and phosphorus are important in human nutrition because they can meet a portion of man's daily needs for these nutrients. Low temperature storage of meat either at chilling or freezing conditions is very popular worldwide for the purposes of meat security, meat transportation, and overseas trade. However, the microbial quality of the meat at low temperature storage represents a challenging task for both the food safety and public health sectors. Â This review threw the light on the microbial status of chilled and frozen meat with a particular focus on the contamination of meat with Pseudomonas spp.

Chicken meat products contribute significantly as a fairly priced substitute for red meat, which is critically undersupplied in Egypt. This type of meat is high in animal protein, vital amino acids, and trace elements. Furthermore, as a result of rapid improvements in food processing and technology, a variety of chicken meat products, including as chicken burgers, chicken fillets, chicken sandwiches, chicken nuggets, and chicken panne, were manufactured and released into the chicken meat markets. Such key products are defined by their distinct flavor and aroma, which captivates buyers, particularly children. Microorganisms can contaminate chicken meat products at any stage of production, including raw material preparation, manufacture, distribution, and storage. As a result, chicken products are regarded to be a possible source of bacteria that cause food poisoning, such as Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Salmonella spp. Essential oils derived from the coriander plant (Coriandrum sativum L.), either from the seeds or the leaves, are among the most extensively utilized. Coriander and coriander essential oils are antibacterial, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, anxiolytic, anti-epileptic, depressive, anti-mutagenic, anti-inflammatory, antidyslipidemic, antihypertensive, neuroprotective, and diuretic. In this review, we threw the light on the microbial contamination of chicken meat and meat products in Egypt and worldwide. Besides, the antibacterial activities of coriander will be reviewed.

Berberine (BBR) is an isoquinoline derivative alkaloid that has been identified from a variety of plant species including Cortex phellodendron (Huang bai), Hydrastis canadensis (goldenseal), and Rhizoma coptidis (Huanglian). A growing body of research has demonstrated that this chemical has a wide range of biological functions, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and anti-hyperglycemic properties. BBR has been proven in studies to reduce the production of inflammatory mediators such as TNF-, IL-1, IL-6, and IL-8. Furthermore, BBR appears to boost the cellular antioxidant defense mechanism by raising the activity of CAT, SOD, and GPx while reducing OS variables such as protein carbonyl (PC) content, MDA, and NO levels. This review threw light on the pharmacological activities and medicinal uses of BBR.

The postpartum period is one of the most important moments in a female's life. During this period caused by pregnancy and childbirth involutional changes in the reproductive system and the body as a whole occurs, which plays a crucial role in restoring reproductive function and milk productivity of cows. In this regard, the puerperium is the basis for structural and functional disorders in individual organs and systems, the disposition for the development of pathological processes and the negative impact on the reproduction of the herd, impaired fertility, calf yield and milk productivity. Diseases during the postpartum period in cows have species and age polymorbidity, specific in highly productive animals and first-borns and are especially common in hypovitaminosis and trace elements. Their occurrence is associated with unsatisfactory conditions for keeping and feeding cattle, mainly in the autumn-winter and winter-spring periods of the year, especially during the stable keeping of cows. The pathogenesis is based on metabolic disorders and endocrine dysfunctions with a decrease in the body's resistance, which is complicated by the action of adverse environmental factors. Puerperal pathologies are quite common and described in the literature as individual diseases, but limited ‒ by their combination (co-, poly- and multimorbidity, multiorgan failure, multiple, complex, combined and concomitant pathology, associated and multifactorial diseases or polypathy). Options of combining postpartum pathologies are diverse with the involvement of metro- and ovariopathies, udder diseases, fallopian tubes and metabolism in the form of inflammatory processes and dysfunctions. The hypogonadism development on the background of chronic metritis, or endometritis complicated by ovarian dysfunction, or subclinical chronic endometritis with hypoluteolysis, salpingo-oophoritis and salpingitis is widespread. Postpartum inflammatory processes in the genitals are the cause of prolonged symptomatic infertility and are often registered in the form of acute endometritis in combination with inflammatory processes of other genitals. For example, inflammation of the endometrium in many cases is accompanied by inflammation of the mucous membrane of other parts of the genitals ‒ cervicitis, vaginitis, vestibulitis. Quite often the simultaneous course of inflammatory processes in the genitals and udder of cows, as well as pathologies of the uterus and ovaries are registered. Thus, one of the most common combined pathologies of the postpartum period in cows is acute subinvolution of the uterus with acute metritis.
As a result, it should be noted that in the case of organ pathology, a combination in the form of hypogonadism-metritis, hypocalcemia-metritis, hypoluteolysis-metritis, retained placenta-metritis, ketosis-hypoluteolysis, ketosis-metritis, mastitis-metritis and uterine subinvolution-metritis, and of multiorgans – vaginitis-vestibulitis-metritis-subinvolution of the uterus-cervicitis, vaginitis-metritis-cervicitis, hypocalcemia-ketosis-metritis, hypoluteolysis-ketosis-metritis, hypoluteolysis-metritis-salpingitis-salpingo-oophoritis, retained placenta-mastitis-metritis, ketosis-mastitis-metritis.

Ractopamine hydrochloride is a β-adrenergic agonist that increases growth, feed efficiency, and fat deposition. Because of its ability to increase muscling, average daily gain, efficiency, and carcass weight, ractopamine hydrochloride has been used as a feed additive growth enhancer. Ractopamine is also a member of the phenylethanolamine class of chemicals, which is used as a feed supplement in meat-producing animals. This review threw the light on the use of ractopamine to improve weight gain and as a feed addition. Furthermore, the potential negative health effects of ractopamine were explored.

Ivermectin is a broad-spectrum antiparasitic drug with outstanding efficacy and a wide margin of safety. This drug has been widely utilized in veterinary medicine since 1987, and its use in humans has grown. Ivermectin is a broad-spectrum anti-parasitic agent licensed by the FDA. Ivermectin is a mixture of 80% or more avermectin B1a (AB1a) analogue and 20% or less avermectin B1b analogue. Iverzine has been proven to have widespread antiviral action in recent years. Ivermectin has also a broad-spectrum activity against the viruses that cause dengue, Zika, HIV, and yellow fever in vitro. Despite this in vitro action, no clinical trials have shown that ivermectin has a therapeutic benefit in patients with these viruses. Some ivermectin studies have also revealed potential anti-inflammatory qualities, which may be beneficial in persons with COVID-19. However, the use of ivermectin in animals was also associated with some histopathological effects in the internal organs including the liver, kidney, spleen, and brain.

The extraordinary increase in demand for animal protein such as meat, eggs, milk, and other animal products, as well as the large quantities of protein feed inputs required for animal production, have principally spurred research into spirulina as an animal feed. Spirulina (Athrospira sp.) is a highly nutritious edible microalga and a prospective feed supply for many agriculturally significant animal species. Animal growth, fertility, beauty, and nutritional product quality have all been linked to spirulina. Spirulina consumption has been related to improved animal health and well-being in studies. Because of its nutritious and protein-rich composition, its impact on animal development was significant, and commercial production was raised to suit consumer demand. As a result, Spirulina is emerging as a cost-effective resource for increasing animal output in order to achieve long-term sustainability and a viable food security future.

Despite rising demand for chicken, laws and public uproar forced the industry to find alternatives to maintain flock health by outlawing antibiotic growth boosters. Incorporating a program that naturally improves or modifies the bird's immune response is one strategy. A tailored dietary supplement and/or feed additive can be used to modify immune function and achieve immunomodulation of the immune system. The best alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) may be the use of probiotics and organic acids. Probiotics provide advantages such as altering the host's metabolism, stimulating the immune system, excluding pathogens, enhancing nutrient absorption, and ultimately lowering the danger to human health. Nucleotide supplementation in the feed may enhance gut shape, digestive enzyme activity, and growth performance in broilers. In the current review, we would like to through the light on the use of c as ecofriendly animal feed additives.

Migratory birds are considered a vessel for preserving and transmitting microbes, which contribute with great force in transporting them from one place to another over long distances in the world. This would contribute to the emergence of disease pandemics globally and the most obvious example is the avian influenza (AI) epidemics over time. The most famous recent scenario is the AI pandemic that began in Hong Kong in 1990s. Natural resistance to AI helps migratory birds retain avian influenza viruses (AIVs) for long periods and transfer them from their source to many other countries during migration paths. Accordingly, they serve as a vector for the maintenance and introduction of both highly pathogenic and low pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI and LPAI). Through this study, the subtypes of high- and low-pathogenic avian influenza viruses found in migratory and wild birds in Egypt were identified, and the most important species of implicated birds were recognized since 1970s tell now. In the view of geoepidemiology of AIVs transmitted by migratory birds, we highlighted the main entry, gathering places and movement routes encountered either with free-living or domesticated birds. By reviewing the outcomes of previous studies over the past two decades, a total of 108 AIVs including 70 of the LPAI and 38 of the HPAI were isolated from migratory and free-living birds. Migratory birds topped the list with 91% of the LPAI and 79% of the HPAI. Interestingly, Damietta province had the highest rates of virus isolation; 81.3% and 40% for LPAI and HPAI viruses respectively, followed by Sharkia particularly in HPAIV (26.7) and both borders are with Lake Manzala. Two Anseriformes-migratory birds; Northern shoveler & Green-winged teal harbored more than 50% of the isolated AIVs. Therefore, we call for conducting annual screening of AIVs in spring and fall. Focusing on Anseriformes and recently proposed quails as vessels for AIVs’ mutations mainly in northeast Lakes’ border provinces for early detection and quick intervene and avoid their spread became an urgent need.

Infectious bronchitis is an acute, highly contagious upper respiratory tract disease in chickens. Reduced egg production and quality are common, and nephritis can be caused by some strains. Attenuated live, killed, and recently recombinant vaccines are available, but different antigenic types of the avian coronavirus causing the disease do not cross-protect, complicating control efforts. Vaccination regimens against IBV often induce insufficient levels of cross-protection field challenge. In the current work, we reviewed the data outcomes of the field and experimental vaccine efficacy in view of the available literature during 2000–2021 in Egypt, as well as the geo-epidemiological distribution of the virus infection among different Egyptian provinces within the time frame of the study. Among seventeen provinces, Sharkia came in at the top of the list, with the highest IBV incidence in field-vaccinated flocks that received a single classic live vaccine. However, experimentally, the protective percentage for the same vaccine regime extremely varied from 50% to almost 100%. The introduction of variants with classics proved lower incidence in the field IBV isolates and higher protection in experimental trials, which varied according to the variant vaccine used and the strain of the challenge virus. In conclusion, the vaccination efficacy against IBV is a crucial issue, and we must keep in mind proper vaccine handling, application, and the maximal use of one classic beside one variant as a protectotype along the Egyptian farms to avoid the evolution of more variants.

Meat products contain protein, which is important for growth needed by human body, in addition to contain some minerals and vitamins as iodine, iron, zinc, and B12. This high nutritional value of meat products makes them vulnerable to spoilage and difficult to be preserved. Natural preservatives have emerged as alternatives to chemical preservatives. Natural additives have shown potential to provide effective antimicrobial and antioxidant activity while reducing negative health impacts. Incorporating lycopene into meat products has gained much interest among food scientists and in the meat industry. Some past articles concerning the lycopene addition effect on the quality of meat products have been published. Based on the above, the purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the applications of lycopene as a natural colorant and antibacterial in meat products, and to provide a comprehensive summary of the effectiveness and progress of lycopene in the preservation of meat products over the last decade. The information in this review provides ideas for future applications of lycopene in meat preservation as a natural antioxidant, which has great potential to replace traditional artificial preservatives.

The use of food additives in food production is inevitable in this modern world. Although only a safe amount of food additives is approved, their safety has always been questioned. At present, artificial synthetic food additives have gradually replaced natural food additives and many problems related to food additives, involve the abuse of food additives, excessive additives, or even toxic additives. Obviously, food additives can bring people great sensory enjoyment and commercial convenience, but they may also cause potential risks to human health. So, it is of high significance to conduct quantitative analysis on the content of food additives. According to their functions and the regulatory requirements of food additives, this review started with the classification, and functions of various food additives involving preservatives, sweeteners, emulsifiers, stabilizers, thickeners, and gelling agents and the advantages and disadvantages of food additives usage.
