From the Preface Bluetongue initially recognised in South Africa in late 1870s in sheep is now known to affect a wide variety of other domestic and wild ruminants as well. Recent reports also suggested that camelids may also be affected with bluetongue virus in certain situations. Though it was recognised more than a century ago it continues to be an economically very important livestock disease throughout the world. Since bluetongue is transmitted by Culicoides midges its geographical distribution is dependent on the presence of the competent insect vector and susceptible vertebrate host. Thus occurrence of bluetongue virus infection in different parts of the world is governed by several ecological and environmental factors. There has been unprecedented progress with greater impact offering clearer insight into knowledge about bluetongue virus in the past 20 years than there had been in the entire 40 years since bluetongue made its way to the OIE List A disease. During this period the discipline of molecular biology has profoundly influenced virtually every facet of arbovirology. The progress has been astounding and success phenomenal. The developments in molecular and immunological technologies have given a great insight into the virus biology genetic and antigenic diversity host immune response vector biology and vaccines. Enormous literature has accumulated due to extensive studies conducted on various basic and applied aspects of this important animal disease. However there have been very limited efforts to compile the new research findings in comprehensive and understandable manner in the form of a book. 162 pp.…

Soft cover. Condition: New. It is evident that livestock diseases play both direct as well as indirect impact on animal and human health, as it not only affects the livelihood of farmers but also induces catastrophic effects on their income. Moreover, the indirect consequences of such diseases on human health are a major concern as more than two third of emerging infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic in nature and involve transmission of disease from an animal to a human host. One of the most notable zoonotic infections is leptospirosis, which is commonly known as Weil's disease, field fever, mud fever, etc. The lack of knowledge on this disease globally is a major problem. Thus, an effort to reconstitute the current knowledge on it is need of the hour. It is caused by a spirochete Leptospira and is a reemerging, zoonotic and waterborne disease worldwide. Due to negligence, rapid and unplanned urbanization, poor sanitation conditions in most of the developing countries and lack of assessment of current epidemiologic situation, leptospirosis has emerged as a leading cause of severe illness. This monograph discusses the leptospirosis from all angles pertaining to its risk factors, causative agent, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and diagnostic techniques with few illustrations from our lab. We hope that this monograph will enrich knowledge of the researchers and students in the field of leptospirosis.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Canine mammary tumor is an important concern among both owners and veterinarians. Though frequency of mammary tumors varies in different species, canines are the most frequently affected ones, with prevalence about 3 times higher than humans. The book presents information on different types of canine mammary tumors and their features, symptoms, their predisposing factors and molecular marker-based diagnosis and prognosis of tumors. It also highlights many other advanced diagnostic techniques and current trends in therapeutics and surgery for their efficient clinical management. The work lays emphasis on the importance of immunotherapeutics and upcoming and improved vaccines to cure these tumors. It will be useful for veterinary clinicians, students and researchers for their overall awareness.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Bioinformatics is a significant field in the biological sciences that requires extensive knowledge and expertise in both statistics and computer science. The increasing number of new sequencing projects has made bioinformatics an essential tool in understanding biological processes, particularly in the agricultural and healthcare sectors, with numerous applications. This book, "Concepts in Bioinformatics, Basics to Advances," is a comprehensive resource for students and researchers, providing a quick reference guide to the subject. It covers a wide range of topics, including molecular data analysis, multiple sequence alignment, primer design, phylogenomics, omics, molecular modeling, drug design, and synthetic biology. The book begins by introducing readers to the basics of bioinformatics and its history, followed by a discussion of important concepts, such as databases, sequence alignment, primer design, and molecular phylogeny. These topics are essential for postgraduate students in bioinformatics, biotechnology, and molecular biology. Later chapters delve into more advanced areas, including BLAST and FASTA, protein structure prediction through homology modeling, and molecular modeling, which are crucial for in silico analysis. Overall, this book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of bioinformatics and its applications.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. Animal cell culture is a common laboratory technique for maintaining live cells separated from their original tissue (primary cells) or immortal cells (cell lines). The technique of cell culture was discovered in the 19th century after the discovery of the microscope. Presently, the culture of cells is one of the most important tools of life sciences research and is being used by investigators to understand advanced understanding of cell growth and differentiation and mechanisms of normal/ abnormal functioning of various cells. In addition to that, cell culture is employed in the generation of vaccines, the production of pharmaceutical proteins, and the safety testing of drugs. …

Hardcover. Condition: New. The Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) concept and tools have started to globally permeate the livestock farming industry due to its immense impact and multifaceted benefits. However, many farmers are still hesitant to adopt PLF, owing to lack of information on its implementations and outcomes. It is meaningless if technology remains confined to paper and within the walls of institutions. The idea for the book "Precision Livestock Farming" was conceived during an interface between the extension specialists and the scientific and academic community on "Precision Livestock Farming" organized by the ICAR-ATARI, zone-I, Ludhiana with technical support from the Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University Ludhiana. The book intends to give a spark of inspiration to the young generation of farmers, extension experts, academicians, and scientists to venture towards innovation and adaptation of the PLF tools. The experts' technical inputs from the interface are compiled into a book format for scientists, extension specialists, and farmers to use as a ready reference. Surely, this book will give the reader a new insight into the different livestock aspects.…
