| first isolation of neospora caninum from an aborted bovine fetus in spain. | neospora caninum was isolated from the brain of a 6-mo-old aborted bovine fetus from galicia, spain. the fetal brain homogenate was inoculated intraperitoneally into cortisonized mice. the peritoneal exudate from the infected mice, along with mouse sarcoma cells (tg180), was inoculated into a second group of mice, and parasites were harvested from the peritoneal exudate. the parasites were adapted to in vitro growth in vero monolayers. the tachyzoites from the peritoneal exudate reacted positive ... | 2004 | 15357083 |
| heavy metal transfers between trophic compartments in different ecosystems in galicia (northwest spain): essential elements. | in the present study, we determined the concentrations of cu, fe, mn, and zn in soil and several trophic compartments at a total of 16 sampling stations. the trophic compartments studied were primary producers, represented by two species of terrestrial mosses (pseudoescleropodium purum and hypnum cupressiforme) and oak trees (quercus robur or q. pyrenaica); primary consumers, represented by the wood mouse (apodemus sylvaticus) and the yellow necked mouse (a. flavicollis); secondary consumers, re ... | 2008 | 18350242 |
