Single-step purification of equine chorionic gonadotrophin directly from plasma using affinity chromatography. Equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) is a hormone widely used in superovulation protocols because of its follicle-stimulating action, which increases reproductive efficiency in animals of productive interest. It contains 45% carbohydrate, 10% of which is N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid). The eCG purification procedures from equine serum or plasma are mainly based on chromatographic methods. However, before these procedures, it is necessary to follow sample pre-conditioning steps, such as several precipitation stages and/or ultrafiltration/diafiltration processes. In this work, an efficien...
Genome sequence of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis biovar equi strain 258 and prediction of antigenic targets to improve biotechnological vaccine production. Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis is the causative agent of several veterinary diseases in a broad range of economically important hosts, which can vary from caseous lymphadenitis in sheep and goats (biovar ovis) to ulcerative lymphangitis in cattle and horses (biovar equi). Existing vaccines against C. pseudotuberculosis are mainly intended for small ruminants and, even in these hosts, they still present remarkable limitations. In this study, we present the complete genome sequence of C. pseudotuberculosis biovar equi strain 258, isolated from a horse with ulcerative lymphangitis. The genome...
Experience from Lipizzan horse and salmonid species endemic to the Adriatic river system. Examples for the application of molecular markers for preservation of biodiversity and management of animal genetic resources. Management of breeding- and free-living populations, traditionally based on phenotypic traits, relays more and more on availability of reliable information about the basic population genetic parameters as heterozygosity, mean number of alleles per locus, percentage of polymorphic loci, population structuring, genetic distances and others. Therefore, the application of molecular markers, revealing a great deal of phenotypically hidden information, becomes inevitable for population analysis. Conservation geneticists use this information for implementation of appropriate management policies. Appl...
