status of malaria vectors in italy.about 30 yr after malaria eradication, surveys to assess the presence and abundance of anopheline vectors were carried out in central and southern italy and in the islands of sardinia and sicily from 1992 to 1994. anopheles labranchiae falleroni was present in scattered foci in all regions, except for tuscany, where it breeds almost exclusively in rice fields (grosseto province). most common breeding sites were rivers and streams, followed by ponds and ground pools. the highest adult density was ...19979151488
goat warble fly infestation by przhevalskiana silenus (diptera: oestridae): immunoepidemiologic survey in the basilicata region (southern italy).the demonstration of serological cross-reactivity between the hypoderma lineatum antigen and anti-przhevalskiana silenus antibodies led us to prepare an immunological test (elisa) for an early diagnosis of goat warble fly infestation. using the hypodermosis elisa-kit (vétoquinol diagnostic, france) produced for the immunodiagnosis of bovine hypodermosis, an epidemiological assay was carried out in basilicata region where goat breeding is very common and no data are reported with regards to the d ...200111921540
levels of "toxic" and "essential" metals in samples of bovine milk from various dairy farms in calabria, italy.the aim of this research was to evaluate the possible contamination by heavy metals of milk from cows bred on various farms in calabria. the concentrations of heavy metals were determined in 40 samples of bovine milk from the various dairy farms. each sample, homogenized and powdered, was mineralized in a microwave oven. quantitative analyses of cd, cr, cu, pb and se were performed using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer with graphite furnace; as was analyzed by hot vapor generation techniq ...200414664858
contribution to the knowledge of the veterinary science and of the ethnobotany in calabria region (southern italy).a series of preliminary research projects on plants used in calabria (southern italy) in veterinary science and in other ethno-botanical fields (minor nourishment, domestic and handicraft sector) was carried out in the last twenty years. from the ethno-botanical point of view, calabria is one of the most interesting region, since in the ancient times it was subject to the dominant cultures of several people (greeks, romans, byzantines, arabs, normans etc.). until some decades ago the road networ ...200617156472
anaplasmosis in cattle in italy.bovine anaplasmosis caused by anaplasma marginale is a disease transmitted by ticks belonging to the ixodidae family. southern italy is considered an endemic zone but environmental and social factors are changing the epidemiology of the disease to expand to previously anaplasmosis-free regions. the available data of published reports of anaplasmosis in italy together with the data obtained by the national centre of reference for anaplasma, babesia, rickettsia and theileria (c.r.a.ba.r.t.), allow ...200717682850
characterization of antimicrobial resistant salmonella enterica serovars enteritidis and typhimurium isolates from animal and food in southern italy.in the last two decades, the emergence and spread of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens, among them salmonella, has become a serious health hazard worldwide, and specifically the high incidence of multidrug resistance has been encountered widely in many european countries. this study examines the antimicrobial susceptibility of salmonella enterica strains typhimurium and enteritidis isolated in campania and calabria region (southern italy) from animal and food of animal origin. the relationship o ...201020401533
vancomycin resistance and antibiotic susceptibility of enterococci in raw meat.the purpose of this study was to investigate antimicrobial resistance, in particular to vancomycin, of enterococci in samples (100) of meat (beef, chicken, turkey, lamb, and pork) sold in retail outlets of catanzaro (italy). enterococci were identified to the species level. antimicrobial susceptibility tests for a large spectrum of antibiotics including glycopeptides were performed by the disk diffusion method. kappa statistic was used to evaluate associations of resistance to vancomycin with ot ...200010914659
[on the incidence of leptospiral infections in cattle and swine in the province of catanzaro]. 19666006582
ethnobotanical notes about some uses of medicinal plants in alto tirreno cosentino area (calabria, southern italy).the present paper contributes to enrich the ethnobotanical knowledge of calabria region (southern italy). research was carried out in alto tirreno cosentino, a small area lying between the tyrrhenian coast and the pollino national park. in the area studied medicinal plants still play a small role among farmers, shepherds and other people who live far from villages and built-up areas.200717983476
