(Academic Press, 2018)The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of breeding values (EBVs) predicted using the traditional pedigree based Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (PBLUP) and the single-step genomic Best Linear Unbiased Prediction ...
-
(Elsevier, 2017)Salmonella enterica can cause disease and mortality in calves. This pathogen is also a zoonosis that can be transmitted by animal contact or by food. The prevalence of Salmonella in dairy farms has been reported to range ...
-
(Springer, 2017)The replacement of native forests by Pinus radiata plantations modifies habitat availability and quality for wildlife, constituting a threat to species survival. However, the presence of understory in mature pine plantations ...
-
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2015)Sulfonated and fluorescent polymethylsiloxanes (SO3H-PMS) were synthesized, and their effect as additives on in vitro calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystallization was evaluated. SO3H-PMS was prepared by hydrosilylation and ...
-
(University of Agriculture, 2017)We presented a marine natural product, norsiphonarienone, isolated from Siphonaria lessoni, a pulmonate limpet of Central Chile. The norsiphonarienone was pharmacologically studied in rat thoracic aorta with endothelium ...
-
(Elsevier, 2016)The intracellular pathogen Piscirickettsia salmonis is the etiological agent of piscirickettsiosis, the most important bacterial disease that affects the Chilean salmon industry. Despite its importance, little is known ...
-
(Universidad Austral de Chile, 2016)Chilean bovine dairy production needs to increase milk solid content. This study evaluates and compares genetic and economic progress of New Zealand Holstein (HoNZ) and New Zealand Jersey-HoNz crossbreed (Fx) using selection ...
-
(2013)This research presents a model to estimate the total concentration or C-Total of dioxins (PCDD), furans (PCDF) and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL-PCBs) in pork. The model was applied considering the categories ...
-
(Elsevier, 2017)The infectious salmon anemia virus (ISAv) produces a systemic infection in salmonids, causing large losses in salmon production. However, little is known regarding the mechanisms exerting disease resistance. In this paper, ...
-
Chilean consumers' perception about animal welfare in dairy production systems: Short communication (CSIRO, 2017)Information on animal welfare and ways that farm animals are kept has gained more and more importance with regard to the consumers' behaviour and expectations when buying food products. In certain countries, animal welfare ...
-
(1992)To understand the taxonomic and phylogenetic relationships of Alsodes montanus and A. pehuenche the species were compared with species of the genera Alsodes and Telmatobius. Comparisons were based on internal and external, ...
-
(2013)The EROD-H4IIE cell bioassay is a screening method for the detection of planar halogenated hydrocarbons (PHH), it has several advantages over analytical chemistry like speed, simplicity, accuracy, high sensitivity and low ...
-
(Cambridge University Press, 2016)Molecular techniques are important tools for microbiological studies in different habitats, and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) has been proved to be useful for analyzing fungal diversity. The aim of this study was ...
-
(Escuela de Ciencias del Mar, 2015)Seriola lalandi has been recognized as a potential aquaculture species in Chile, however, little is known about the genetic structure of local populations. This is important, as the current production system is based on ...
-
(MDPI, 2013)Crustaceans have to cyclically replace their rigid exoskeleton in order to grow. Most of them harden this skeleton by a calcification process. Some decapods (land crabs, lobsters and crayfish) elaborate calcium storage ...
-
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2014)The use of bacteriophages for the biocontrol of food-borne pathogens is increasingly gaining acceptance. In this study, the effectiveness of bacteriophages to reduce Salmonella Enteritidis counts was evaluated in raw and ...
-
(Universidad Austral de Chile, 2014)The aim of this study was to calculate and compare efficiency of four selection indices (IS) in dual purpose sheep. Selection indices were calculated using records of the Merino Precoz sheep flock of the Estación Experimental ...
-
(2014)Objectives: To calculate the Scapular Balance Angle (SBA) reference values in a healthy population between 18 and 85 years old, and to define abnormality criteria for this sample. Materials and methods: A descriptive study ...
-
(Oxford, 2014)Treehoppers (Membracidae) exhibit different levels of sociality, from solitary to presocial. Although they are one of the best biological systems to study the evolution of maternal care in insects, information on the ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2015)We evaluated the effectiveness of phages on meats and goat cheese contaminated with Salmonella Enteritidis (SE). In meats, reductions of SE were observed during the whole experiment, while in goat cheese a reduction was ...
