The emergence of Senecavirus A (SVA) as a causative agent of vesicular diseases in pigs is noteworthy, since it was identified in 2014 through outbreaks in Brazil. The SVA belongs to the Picornaviridae family and is a non-enveloped virus with the ability to adapt to the environment. As the virus’s stability allows it to persist on farms post-outbreak, maintaining stringent biosecurity measures is crucial for effective control....

With the development of cellulose nanofibril (CNF)-based adsorbents, the influence of particle size on adsorption capability has become increasingly recognized. In this study, endoglucanase FiberCare® was utilized to decrease fibril size of TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TCNFs) without changing carboxyl groups content of the resulting TCNFs. Average fibril length decreased by 27.3% (from 508.7 nm to 369.4 nm) after enzy...

Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic heavy metal that poses serious environmental and health risks. It reduces soil fertility and can cause renal failure, liver damage, bone fractures, hypercalciuria, and cancer in humans. Cd contamination in soil, originating from both natural and human activities, is especially concerning because it bioaccumulates in plants, entering the food chain and affecting crops like tomatoes, rice, cocoa, a...

Our primary objective was to compile a comprehensive dataset on bird–window collisions throughout the Neotropical region, including both published and unpublished sources. On May 12, 2020, we extensively disseminated invitations to provide data via email and social media platforms. By providing a template worksheet, we required standardized information from collaborators to complete and register their data. To better understan...

The increasing significance of the aquaculture sector and commercially valuable species underscores the need to develop alternatives for controlling diseases such as Ichthyophthirius multifiliis ‐induced ichthyophthiriasis. This ciliated protozoan parasite threatens nearly all freshwater fish species, causing substantial losses in the fishery industry. Despite this, effective large‐scale treatments are lacking, emphasizing the...
