Abstract Field survey study was conducted season (2017). Soybeans and weeds were weekly sampled randomly. Thrips adults were identified and counted. Detection of the virus isolate and the natural incidence was determined using; Mechanical transmission, host range, DAS-ELISA, RT-PCR. The natural incidence...

Phytochemical Screening and chemical investigation of lipoidal matter of the leaves of Latania verschaffeltii Lem. Family Arecaceae cultivated in Egypt

Abstract This study presents the first preliminary phytochemical screening and investigation of the lipoidal matter of Latania verschaffeltii Lem. leaves, belonging to the Arecaceae family. Gas chromatography coupled with mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) was used to analyze and identify compounds of saponifiabl...

Efficacy of current vaccines against recently isolated foot and mouth disease virus type A South America (Venezuela) in Egypt 2022

Foot and mouth disease is a highly contagious viral disease that poses a significant economic threat to cloven-hoofed animals, including cattle and sheep.

Studying the efficacy of some commercial inactivated avian influenza H5 vaccines against the currently circulating highly pathogenic H5N8 virus in broiler chickens in Egypt

The avian influenza H5N8 virus is a highly pathogenic virus that can cause severe economic losses in poultry species worldwide. In Egypt, highly pathogenic avian influenza virus of subtype H5N8 clade 2.3.4.4b was reported in 2016, and despite vaccination efforts, the virus has become endemic. The current...

Assessment of mycoplasma vaccine efficacy in reducing infection with Newcastle disease virus

The present work recorded the impact of using Mycoplasma gallisepticum vaccines on post-vaccinal response and protection against challenge with Newcastle disease virus. Specific pathogen-free chickens were divided into eight groups of forty chickens each. Group G1 was vaccinated with Mycoplasma gallisept...

Impact of H5N8 duck and chicken viral isolates on the immunological profile of vaccinated specific pathogen free chickens

Nowadays, there is a global concern about outbreaks caused by the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N8 clade 2.3.4.4 which caused devastating losses in the poultry industry sector. This clade was subdivided into two waves: clade 2.3.4.4A from 2014 to 2015 and clade 2.3.4.4b from 2016 until now. I...
