To that end, we are constantly developing new methods and improving existing ones. In 2011 alone, 58 million euros were invested in in-house research and development. We also have numerous cooperative arrangements with research institutions and universities that allow us access to the latest technologies. The tests for pancreas-specific lipase, Spec cPL®, Spec fPL® and Cardiopet® proBNP, are just some of the examples that are exclusively available to our clients. A substantial contribution to our success is made by our highly-qualified laboratory staff. Each department is under veterinary supervision. In microbiology, for example, two veterinary specialists, a microbiologist and nine MTAs are on hand to guarantee quick processing. In histopathology, the samples you submit are assessed by 16 veterinary specialists. Many new tests have been added to the IDEXX test menu. In PCR diagnostics, for example, we can offer a quantitative PCR for a series of parameters. It is also worth taking a look at our ever-expanding range of profiles: general profiles can be customised by adding on a selection of attractively-priced profiles and tests, to help address your patients' symptoms in a targeted way. This is the first Nordic edition of our Directory of Services, which provides a comprehensive overview of all tests available from us together with important information about the tests and required sample material. Updates to this Directory have been made necessary by the development of new tests and improvements to existing ones: We are delighted to inform you about our free hotline concerning changes to particular tests. This number can also be used to reach our accounts department, courier service and specialist advisers. On behalf of myself and my colleagues, I would like to thank you for your confidence in us and look forward to continuing our excellent cooperation. Yours faithfully, Dr. med. vet.

  • Demographic and Reproductive Associations with Nematode Infection in a Long-Lived Mammal Carly L
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Demographic and reproductive associations with nematode infection in a long-lived mammal Carly L. Lynsdale1 ✉ , Nay Oo Mon2, Diogo J. Franco dos Santos3, Htoo Htoo Aung4, U Kyaw Nyein4, Win Htut4, Dylan Childs3 & Virpi Lummaa1 Infection by macroparasites, such as nematodes, varies within vertebrate host systems; elevated infection is commonly observed in juveniles and males, and, for females, with diferent reproductive states. However, while such patterns are widely recognized in short-lived model systems, how they apply to long-lived hosts is comparatively understudied. Here, we investigated how infection varies with host age, sex, and female reproduction in a semi-captive population of individually marked Asian elephants Elephas maximus. We carried out 1,977 faecal egg counts (FECs) across fve years to estimate nematode loads for 324 hosts. Infection patterns followed an established age-infection curve, whereby calves (5 years) exhibited the highest FECs and adults (45 years) the lowest. However, males and females had similar FECs across their long lifespan, despite distinct diferences in life-history strategy and clear sexual dimorphism. Additionally, although mothers invest two years in pregnancy and a further three to fve years into lactation, nematode load did not vary with four diferent measures of female reproduction. Our results provide a much-needed insight into the host-parasite dynamics of a long-lived host; determining host-specifc associations with infection in such systems is important for broadening our knowledge of parasite ecology and provides practical applications for wildlife medicine and management. One of the most recurrent patterns in parasite ecology is that parasites are aggregated within host populations, meaning that the majority of parasites are observed within the minority of hosts1–3.

However, the incidence of fresh cases can be minimized with a series of focused awareness-raising interventions. Thus, the issue can be tackled in D.

For this purpose, equine owners/users in communities, work places, and animal fairs were taken into account in order to design Bangladesh Disaster Preparedness Centre (BDPC), Dhaka, Bangladesh interventions to change their perceptions about the issue. Through pictorial banners, leaflets, demonstrations, and owners/users meetings, awareness on issue was aroused. The issue was treated with other welfare issues during Background walks and events arranged from time to time, for example World Animal Day – celebrated during the last 2 years in A country born out of a bloody freedom struggle in 1971 and currently home to 16.2 million people within a 145,570 all 3 districts.
