Delivery of interventions through group sessions allows for in-depth discussions and creates opportunities for group members to work together to identify and solve common problems. However, low attendance may limit impact. We explored factors affecting attendance, active participation, and behavior ...

Background. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health problem which is constantly evolving and varies spatially and temporally. Resistance to a particular antibiotic may serve as a selection and coselection marker for the same or different antibiotic classes. Therefore, this cross-sectional ...

Canine parvovirus (CPV-2) is one of the most important pathogens of dogs of all ages, causing pandemic infections that are characterized by fatal hemorrhagic enteritis. The CPV-2 vaccine is recommended as a core vaccine for pet animals. Despite the intensive practice of active immunization, CPV-2 re...

Antimicrobials have been used to improve animal welfare, food security, and food safety that promote the emergence, selection, and dissemination of antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) bacteria. In this study, 50 E. coli were isolated from frozen chicken meat samples in Dhaka city. Antibiotic sensitivity p...

Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) pose threats to animal and human health. Outbreaks from the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) in indigenous chickens in Bangladesh are infrequent. This could be attributed to the Myxovirus resistance (Mx) gene. To determine the impact of Mx gene diversity...

The study was conducted to determine the genetic variants of κ-casein and β-lactoglobulin genes in native cattle. DNA was extracted from blood samples (n = 80) collected from Babuganj, Barishal followed by PCR with gene-specific primers. Genotyping was done by RFLP with HindIII, and HaeIII restricti...

Identification of meat and meat products is significant for economic, religious, or public health reasons. This study focused on the detection and differentiation of meat animal species. A total of sixty-four meat samples (10 samples of each like beef, buffen, chevon, and mutton; twenty-four samples...

This study aimed to pinpoint the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) gene that is notably linked to milk production traits and to evaluate the structural and functional consequences of mutant proteins. Through pooled DNA sequencing, five SNPs were identifi...

Ever since antibiotics were discovered for the treatment of bacterial diseases, an increase in antibiotic-resistant bacteria has been noticed as an economic and public health concern with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Antibiotic resistance in broiler chickens can be a great threat to publi...

Raoultella ornithinolytica is an emerging pathogen that causes human infections. We report the isolation and genome sequencing of R. ornithinolytica from an oral swab of a Persian pet cat in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The genome length was 5,375,160 bp, with 55.9% G+C content. It carries putative genes asso...

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a major fast growing epidemic worldwide health problem and its prevalence has been rapidly increasing in the last century. It is caused by defects in insulin secretion or insulin action or both, leading to hyperglycemia. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a genetically hete...
