In the last decade, organophosphorus insecticides have been used, but they also pose a serious risk because of their high toxicity. For fast screening of milk, immunochemical methods of analysis are appropriate. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay is the most common assay mode and base of many commercialized assay kits. Residues of some organophosphorus compounds in milk and dairy products determined by ELISA are shown. For fast screening of pesticides, the lateral flow strips are also described. The advantages of a new developed method MNPs-based immunoassay for determination of phosphorus pesticides in milk was described and some publications were represented. In recent years, simultaneous identification of more than one pesticide is increasingly perceptual, that way the examples for multi-immunoassays for determination of organophosphorus pesticides was presented.","PeriodicalId":403730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dairy & Veterinary Sciences","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124859355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is characterized in these animals by mucopurulent nasal and ocular discharge, erosive and necrotic stomatitis, enteritis and pneumonia. It is widespread, virulent and devastating, with significant impacts on the economy, food security and livelihoods of marginalized pastoralists. This study provides information on the serological prevalence of PPR virus in 510 camel. Most of the samples for this study were obtained at the N’Djamena abattoir. Sera used to detect PPR virus antibodies were not necessarily representative of the target population, although they came from a larger number of provinces. The test used for the analysis of these sera is the competition ELISA (c-ELISA) developed by CIRAD and marketed by IDVET. Examination of the 510 sera collected from camels revealed that the serological prevalence of PPR virus was 25.88%. This seroprevalence of PPR virus varied by province, age group, and geographic area. The study showed a much higher seroprevalence in animals ranging in age from 6 to 10 years than in animals of other age groups. In view of these results, an additional study is to be undertaken on the epidemiological surveillance in the camel population throughout the national territory to detect clinical cases of this disease in camels. In addition, it would be desirable to carry out a serological survey of this disease nationally on random representative sampling in order to find out the true seroprevalence rate of peste des petits ruminants in Chadian dromedaries.","PeriodicalId":403730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dairy & Veterinary Sciences","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124219083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review focuses on a sperm macromolecule, called proAKAP4 that have been successfully introduced as a pertinent indicator of sperm quality and fertility in mammals. Albeit absence or weak expression of AKAP4 have been described over the years as being related to sperm dysfunctions with motility impairments, proAKAP4 was under investigated up to recently due to the lack of reliable tools. Sandwich ELISA kits known as 4MID® kits have recently reached the artificial insemination markets and brought new highlights about the proAKAP4 master role in reproduction. Structurally, proAKAP4 must be processed to release the mature AKAP4, that is essential to coordinate major transduction signals regulating sperm motility and fertility. ProAKAP4 amount as quantified in ejaculated spermatozoa reflect the ability of spermatozoa to keep active and functional up to the site of fertilization. Any modification of proAKAP4 expression during spermatogenesis or modification of its metabolism will have consequence on sperm motility, sperm capacitation and fertility. Consolidated data from field studies have shown correlation between proAKAP4 expression with fertility and prolificity. We will review here literature data on proAKAP4 involvement in spermatozoa functions and results in animal fertility. The translation of fundamental discoveries around proAKAP4 sperm protein marker to a functional tool such as 4MID® kits will be beneficial in breeding industries and veterinarian practices.","PeriodicalId":403730,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dairy & Veterinary Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125847536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
