Abstract Jute ( Corchorus sp.) is one of the most important sources of natural fibre, covering ∼80% of global bast fibre production 1 . Only Corchorus olitorius and Corchorus capsularis are commercially cultivated, though there are more than 100 Corchorus species 2 in the Malvaceae family. Here we d...

Background and Aim Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a significant cause of hepatic dysfunction and liver‐related mortality. As there is a lack of population‐based prevalence data in a representative sample of general population, we aimed to estimate the prevalence and risk factors of NAF...

The surveillance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in commensal Escherichia coli from livestock at slaughter is widely employed to assess the potential for risk to humans. There is currently a limited understanding of AMR in Bangladesh poultry at retail in live bird markets, with studies focussing s...

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is the second largest parasitic killer of human in the world after malaria which is responsible for an estimated 500,000 new cases of VL in each year with 8-10% mortality. The parasite is transmissible to humans and animals by the bite of phlebotomine sand fly. The clinic...

Background: Bangladesh has experienced repeated house crow (Corvus splendens) mortality events due to highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses since 2011. We investigated one such event in Dhaka in 2017 to detect and molecular characterize the virus in crows and poultry from nearby live poul...

BACKGROUND: A primary threat to food security stems from the expanding global population and climate change, which have increased the frequency of droughts. Owing to shifting climatic conditions, abiotic stresses such as severe drought are intensifying, reducing wheat productivity. This study aimed ...

We present the complete genome sequence of foot-and-mouth disease virus serotype A isolate BDSH_01 from Bangladesh. The 8,140-nucleotide genome encodes a 2,333-aa polyprotein with conserved motifs. Phylogenetically, within lineage A/ASIA/G-VII, clustering with recent regional strains indicates trans...

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) remains endemic in Bangladesh with the persistent circulation of FMD virus (FMDV) serotypes O, A, and Asia 1, underscoring the need for robust epidemiological data to inform and optimize national FMD control strategies. This study analyzed 57 VP1 coding sequences obtaine...

This study was aimed to identify humoral immune response against anthrax vaccine in mice model by using colored slide agglutination test and detection of field infectivity of anthrax. The field isolates of B. anthracis (n=05) and F34 stern strain vaccine was isolated on agar plates in order to carry...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (H5N1) has caused ≥500 reported outbreaks in poultry and wild birds in Bangladesh since 2007. In early 2011 and 2016 H5N1 spread among wild crows in several Bangladesh districts, including, Dhaka. Responding to reports of a crow mortality event in Mohakhali, Dhaka, ...
