Epidemiological factors associated with the exposure of cattle to Coxiella burnetii in the Madrid region of Spain
The Veterinary Journal publish this investigation article
Domestic ruminants are considered to be the major source of Coxiella burnetii, the causative agent of Q fever. Even though Q fever is considered to be present worldwide, its distribution in many areas and countries remains unknown. Here, a serological assay was used to estimate the seroprevalence of C. burnetii in cattle in the Madrid region of Spain, to assess its spatial distribution, and to identify risk factors associated with positive results. Ten animals from each of 110 herds (n=1100) were randomly selected and analyzed using an ELISA test. In addition, epidemiological information, at b…

Evaluation of specificity of tuberculosis diagnostic assays in caprine flocks under different epidemiological situations
Investigation article published in Research in Veterinary Science
The aim of this study was to evaluate the specificity of the most widely used tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic tests, single intradermal tuberculin (SIT) and single comparative intradermal tuberculin (SCIT) tests and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) assay in 937 animals from eight TB-free caprine flocks under different epidemiological situations. Maximum specificity was found using SCIT test (99.4-100% depending on the interpretation criteria) while SIT test and IFN-γ assay showed a slightly lower overall specificity (97.6-99.2% and 96.4-98.4%respectively). Specificity of the SIT test in a C.pse…

Avances en virología de cetáceos: caracterización molecular de nuevas secuencias de morbilllivirus y Herpesvirus
PhD Thesis defense by Edwige Nina Belliere at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the Complutense University of Madrid
Cetaceans are probably the best sentinel organisms in the marine ecosystem. However, monitoring the health of these creatures under natural conditions is not easy, due to ethical and logistical obstacles. Therefore, the study of the animals stranded on coasts is an essential part of any health study. Within viral diseases, the two basic diseases that can cause the animals’ death are: infection by Cetacean morbillivirus (CeMV) and by herpesvirus (HV). CeMV is considered the most virulent infectious agent for cetaceans. To date there are three clusters of strains described, which are named: dolp…

Peste Porcina Africana: un riesgo remergente procedente del Este de Europa
Boletín de la OIE publish this article
La peste porcina africana (PPA), una de las enfermedades infecciosas máscomplejas de cuantas afectan al ganado, está causando problemas en el Este de Europa. A pesar de ser considerada una enfermedad exótica, no es esta la primera vez que el virus de la PPA (VPPA) se encuentra presente en el continente europeo. Desde 1970 hasta mediados de los años 1990, el VPPAS se estableció en la Península Ibérica, y desde 1978 la isla italiana de Cerdeña es endémica para la enfermedad. Sin embargo, durante las últimas décadas la PPA estuvo ausente en Europa, a excepción de Cerdeña, hasta la nueva llegada d…
