Do you want to market a new food? The European Union sets new guidelines

New post in Blog Madri+d de Seguridad Alimentaria y Alimentación


You may have heard of cell-cultured foods, krill oil or insects fit for human consumption. These may be good examples of what is now known as novel foods, a category that in the European Union includes those that, unlike traditional foods, have not been consumed in a significant way before May 1997… Read more

12th International Equine Infectious Diseases Conference

EHV-1 detection in urine samples. Stream of revelation: detection of equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) in urine during myeloencephalopathy outbreaks

Conference in 12th International Equine Infectious Diseases Conference


Detection of EHV-1 in urine from naturally infected horses suggests that non-invasively collected urine could serve as a valuable complement to blood and NS samples in the management of infected horses during an outbreak.… Read more

Stream of revelation: detection of equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) in urine during myeloencephalopathy outbreaks

Investigation published in Equine veterinary journal


Background: The detection of EHV-1 by real-time PCR in nasal swabs (NS), whole blood, brain, and spinal cord samples has been extensively described. However, there remains a notable gap in understanding the excretion of the virus in urine, the patterns of DNA detection, and the potential role of urine in viral dissemination during an outbreak. Objectives: To ascertain the presence of EHV-1 DNA in urine during natural infection and to compare the DNA detection patterns of EHV-1 in urine, buffy coat (BC), and NS. Study design: Prospective clinical study. Methods: During the hospitalisat… Read more

Diagnosis of leishmaniasis in wild murine fauna in Spain

Degree Final Project defended by Paloma Alonso Collado


Leishmaniasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by protozoa of the genus Leishmania, which is primarily transmitted by dipteran vectors (phlebotomine sandflies). It is a disease that affects a large part of the countries worldwide, including Spain, where it is considered endemic. The outbreaks that have occurred in the Community of Madrid since 2009 due to infected leporids have brought wild reservoirs into focus. The diagnosis of the disease canpor be made by direct observation of amastigotes in areas of active multiplication, immunological diagnosis or molecular diagnosis. The aim… Read more

Study of the Toscana virus in lagomorphs

Sara Martín-Gromaz Esteban defended this Degree Final Project


The Toscana Virus (TOSV) is an arbovirus of the genus Phlebovirus, which is transmitted by the bite of phlebotomine sandflies of the genus Phlebotomus and is currently considered an emerging zoonotic pathogen. This virus is known to cause meningitis in humans in endemic areas of the Mediterranean, especially during the summer months when there is increased phlebotomine sandfly activity. Recent studies suggest that some mammals, including lagomorphs, could act as reservoirs or potential amplifying hosts of the virus in certain regions. In addition, co-infection with Leishmania, which is transm… Read more

Detection of Leishmania in rabbit ticks (Oryctolagus cuniculus)

Degree Final Project defended by Mª Leticia del Barrio Montañés


The study focused on the detection of Leishmania infantum in ticks collected from wild rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in the Community of Madrid. Leishmaniasis is a zoonotic disease transmitted by sandflies, and its control is critical due to its global spread and the lack of a vaccine for humans. The primary reservoir is the dog, but the outbreak in Madrid (2009-2012) evidenced hares and rabbits as competent reservoirs, suggesting the need to explore this disease further, for example, by examining other potential common vectors in these wild rabbits, such as ticks. The main objective was to… Read more
