Abstract
×
This case study investigates a one-week-old calf presenting with a congenital process on the left pelvic limb near the tarsal joint, identified through comprehensive clinical, radiographic, and histopathological evaluations. Clinical examination revealed lameness, localized pain, elevated temperature, and ulcerative lesions, with the process appearing detached from surrounding skeletal structures. Computed tomography (CT) imaging, utilizing Hounsfield Unit (HU) measurements, provided critical insights into tissue composition, identifying fluid-filled necrotic regions (-72 to -4 HU), low-density soft tissues (0 to 41 HU), fibrous and inflamed tissues (45 to 94 HU), and calcified structures (104 to 292 HU). Histopathological analysis confirmed a neurofibroma-like lesion characterized by necrotic, inflammatory, and spindle cell components, with areas of increased cellular density suggesting potential malignant progression. These findings underscore the importance of integrating advanced diagnostic techniques, including clinical assessments, CT imaging, and histopathology, to accurately characterize congenital limb abnormalities in cattle.

Abstract
×
This study evaluated whether heat–humidity load, quantified by the Temperature–Humidity Index (THI), reduces test- day milk yield in a commercial herd of Romanian Simmental and Romanian Brown dairy cows. We conducted a retrospective observational analysis linking milking-robot records to daily weather, constructing a 3-day centered mean THI and a within-cow THI component. Linear mixed-effects models with a random intercept for cow were fitted, adjusting for parity and calendar month. The annual dataset comprised 9,931 observations from 947 cows; a warm- season subset (May–September) included 3,355 observations from 832 cows. In the full-year analysis, the within-cow THI effect on 24-h milk yield was not statistically significant (β = −0.014 kg per +1 THI, p = 0.219). In contrast, during the warm season, higher within-cow THI was associated with lower milk yield (β = −0.072 kg per +1 THI, p < 0.001), corresponding to an average decrease of approximately 0.72 kg/day for a +10-unit THI increase after adjustment. These findings indicate that heat–humidity stress imposes a seasonally concentrated penalty on production, while annual average effects are muted once lactation structure and seasonality are controlled. Results support targeted mitigation and THI-aware management during hot months and motivate future work integrating detailed lactation trajectories and finer-scale microclimate measures.

Abstract
×
In contemporary industrial pig production, there is a tendency to disregard the animals' biological needs, which has deleterious consequences for their health and significantly impacts production efficiency. The health of suckling piglets is a prerequisite for profitable pig production and is contingent on the conditions of their keeping, care, nutrition, and health control. The control of diseases of infectious etiology on farms can be achieved through the implementation of prophylactic and therapeutic measures, in addition to heightened oversight of professional services. Viral diseases of the digestive organs represent a constant threat to pig production. It is a fact that one of the most prevalent health concerns is the incidence of diarrhea. Diarrhea has been identified as a significant economic and health concern within pig populations. In the majority of cases, therapy is symptomatic and frequently yields unsatisfactory outcomes. Vaccination is not a viable option in most cases, and prevention and disease control are limited to implementing animal hygiene measures. Following the implementation of standard animal hygiene measures on farms, the subsequent step is to introduce internal and external biosecurity measures. This involves the monitoring of biosecurity indicators. In the context of our research project, we undertook the monitoring of diseases affecting the digestive organs of pigs from controlled farms. The objective of the present study was to provide a comprehensive overview of diseases of the digestive organs of viral etiology.

Abstract
×
Food contamination with Escherichia coli is one of the most important public health problems worldwide, being associated with multiple outbreaks of foodborne infections. Although E. coli is a commensal bacterium of the intestinal tract, certain pathogenic strains – such as enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC), enterotoxigenic (ETEC), enteropathogenic (EPEC) or enteroaggregative (EAEC) – can cause severe diseases in humans, including hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) (Kaper et al., 2004; Pennington, 2010). Plant products, especially those consumed raw (lettuce, spinach, sprouts), but also those of animal origin, such as beef, raw milk, and unpasteurized derivatives, are major vehicles for the transmission of these pathogens. Contamination can occur both at the primary production stage (through irrigation water, organic fertilizers, or animal hygiene) and along the food chain (in slaughterhouses, processing and handling units). The objective of this article is to carry out a comparative analysis of the sources and mechanisms of contamination with toxigenic E. coli in plant and animal products, to highlight the risks to public health, and to present current and emerging prevention and control strategies, in line with the “One Health” principle.

Evaluation of Nutritional Value, Palatability, Fecal Characteristics, and Owner Perception of Commercial Insect-based Dry Dog Foods
Abstract
×
The increasing demand for sustainable protein sources in pet nutrition has promoted the use of edible insects as alternative ingredients. This study evaluated ten commercial insect-based dry dog foods available on the Romanian market in terms of proximate composition, energy value, palatability, fecal quality, and owner perception. The chemical composition of the samples showed the following ranges: crude protein 22.4–25.6%, ether extract 10.5–15.8%, crude fiber 2.3–5.4%, crude ash 5.2–7.1%, nitrogen-free extract 37–45%, moisture 6.5–8.9%, and an estimated metabolizable energy between 3650 and 4150 kcal/kg. Palatability and fecal quality were assessed in ten healthy adult dogs using a two-bowl test and the Royal Canin fecal scoring system. Overall, 83% of the dogs accepted the insect-based food immediately, while 17% consumed it after brief investigation; no refusals were recorded. Fecal consistency was generally good, with a mean score of 2.5 ± 0.3. Additionally, an online questionnaire was completed by 155 dog owners and revealed that 68% were aware of insect-based pet foods, 54% were willing to try them, and 72% considered them environmentally friendly, while 46% identified price as a limiting factor. These findings demonstrate that insect-based pet foods meet canine nutritional requirements, are well accepted by dogs, and are viewed positively by owners, supporting their potential as a sustainable protein source in modern dog nutrition. However, further efforts are needed to improve owner awareness and acceptance through education and effective communication about the nutritional and environmental benefits of insect-based diets.

Detection of Microbiological Indices in Meat Assortments from Some Species of Young Animals
Abstract
×
Microbiological research on some bacteriological laboratory investigations aims at a study on the determination of microbiological indices in meat assortments from young animals sold in the halls of a market in Chisinau. A higher number of colonies was determined in the lamb meat samples in the investigations in hall 1, namely 3 microbial colonies, compared to the veal and rabbit meat assortments where the number of colonies determined in the veal samples a number of 4 colonies and in the rabbit meat a number of 3 colonies. In the veal and rabbit meat samples the number of microbial colonies constituted 1-2 microbial colonies. The results obtained concern the bacterial indices on microscopic smears, of the microbial colonies obtained as a result of the passages according to the comparative aspects regarding the standards on food products. The microbiological indices obtained fall into the category of assessment norms, concluding on the quality of the sausages investigated in the sales halls.

Abstract
×
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into dairy production medicine offers transformative opportunities for herd health management, early disease detection, and nutritional optimization. This study focuses on the use of the milk fat-to-protein ratio as a key indicator of the nutritional status of dairy cows. By analyzing individual milk composition data, AI models can identify deviations from optimal values, revealing dietary imbalances such as over - or under - consumption of concentrates, insufficient structural fiber, or excessive fiber intake. In our study, 235 dairy cows were monitored across two testing periods, generating a total of 470 observations. During the first control, the distribution was dominated by Optimal animals (n=157), with fewer in the Below 1.1 category (n=83) and very few Above 1.5 (n=6). In the second control, the Below 1.1 group increased (n=105), while Optimal declined (n=134); the Above 1.5 group remained small and stable (n=7). Based on these insights, the AI system can provide automated recommendations for adjusting feed rations or regrouping animals according to their milk production performance. AI technologies enable dairy farmers and researchers to process large datasets with unprecedented precision, enhancing decision-making in feeding strategies, disease management, and genetic selection. The adoption of AI not only improves productivity and operational efficiency but also supports sustainable farming practices by optimizing resource use and reducing environmental impact. hese applications highlight AI’s capacity to power integrated e-extension solutions that improve animal health, boost production efficiency, and promote the long-term sustainability of dairy farming systems.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Escherichia coli in poultry production as an indicator of public health risks associated with retail poultry products.
Methods: Poultry samples were collected and analyzed using standard microbiological methods. Escherichia coli isolates were recovered through conventional culture techniques, followed by biochemical characterization and confirmation with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method against a panel of clinically relevant antibiotics.
Results: Exceptionally high resistance rates were observed to beta-lactams (92%) and fluoroquinolones (90%), indicating widespread resistance to these critically important drug classes. Substantial resistance was also detected to sulfonamides (50%). Moderate resistance levels were recorded for aminoglycosides (32%) and amphenicols (32%), while comparatively higher susceptibility was retained to tetracyclines (12%), monobactams (6%), and carbapenems (4%). Multidrug resistance was prevalent among the isolates.
Conclusion: The findings reveal high resistance rates to first-line antibiotics in poultry-associated Escherichia coli, likely driven by historical antimicrobial use in agriculture. The preservation of susceptibility to last-resort agents such as carbapenems is encouraging. These results emphasize the urgent need for strengthened antimicrobial stewardship, robust surveillance systems, and strict implementation of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles across the poultry production chain to curb the dissemination of antimicrobial-resistant strains through the food supply and safeguard public health.

This study investigated antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Enterobacterales isolated from retail foods in Iași County, Romania. A total of 156 samples (ready-to-eat salads, ground beef, and fresh cow cheese) were analyzed, revealing high resistance rates to beta-lactams across all products (36.8–73.8%), with fresh cheese showing the highest prevalence. Multidrug-resistant profiles were frequently observed, particularly in cheese and ground beef, likely reflecting the use of antibiotics in veterinary practices. Ready-to-eat salads also exhibited notable resistance, suggesting possible environmental contamination pathways. Importantly, last-resort antibiotics such as carbapenems remained highly effective (97–100% susceptibility). These findings highlight retail foods as significant reservoirs of AMR and emphasize the need for integrated surveillance and stricter antibiotic stewardship throughout the food production chain to mitigate public health risks.

Preliminary Results Regarding the Incidence of Different Types of Crystalluria in Cats
Cristian Ionuț FLOREA, Alina ȘTEFĂNESCU, Crina Alexandra BOANCĂ, Ioana-Bogdana NICOLA, Alexandru Bogdan VIȚĂLARU
Abstract
×
Urolithiasis is a common condition in veterinary medicine, primarily affecting the lower urinary tract in cats. Unlike in humans, involvement of the upper urinary tract is rare. This study aimed to describe epidemiological characteristics, identify potential risk factors, and review diagnostic aspects of feline urinary lithiasis. The study included 30 cats diagnosed with urinary lithiasis at a private veterinary clinic in Bucharest between January 2024 and May 2025. Patient data regarding age, breed, sex, and reproductive status were collected. The cats ranged in age from 11 months to 18 years and represented multiple breeds, including European Shorthair, Persian, British Shorthair, Russian White, and Birman. Epidemiological evaluation showed that 66% of affected cats were male. Hormonal status influenced the prevalence, with 76% of male cats diagnosed being castrated. Similarly, reproductive status in females was significant: 90% of spayed females developed lithiasis compared with 10% of intact females. Clinical signs were frequently subtle or absent, requiring additional diagnostic investigations for confirmation. Feline urinary lithiasis is influenced by both sex and reproductive status, with castrated males and spayed females at higher risk. Early diagnosis remains challenging due to a non-specific clinical presentation, emphasizing the need for vigilant screening and further research to clarify pathophysiological mechanisms and improve preventive strategies.

Artemisia annua (sweet wormwood) is a medicinal plant known for its rich content of bioactive compounds, including artemisinin and polyphenols with potential therapeutic applications. This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant capacity and antiproliferative effects of A. annua extracts obtained using different solvents and extraction methods. Antioxidant activity was assessed by the DPPH radical scavenging method, with IC₅₀ values calculated from dose–response curves. Extracts obtained from methanol showed stronger antioxidant activity compared to ethanol, and ultrasonication significantly enhanced extraction efficiency compared to shaking. The lowest IC₅₀ value (341.98 µg/ml) was recorded for the methanolic extract obtained by ultrasonication, indicating the highest radical scavenging activity. The biological effects of the extracts were further evaluated in vitro on normal human fibroblast cells (HdFa) and two tumor cell lines (Caco2 – colorectal adenocarcinoma, and MCF-7 – breast adenocarcinoma). Extracts maintained high proliferation rates in normal fibroblasts, suggesting low cytotoxicity, while significantly inhibiting proliferation in Caco2 and MCF-7 tumor cells. Antiproliferative effects increased with extract concentration and incubation time, with proliferation rates ranging between 65–85% compared to untreated controls.
These findings demonstrate that A. annua extracts possess strong antioxidant activity and selective antiproliferative potential, supporting their role as promising natural candidates for complementary approaches in cancer prevention and therapy.

Therapeutic Potential of Honey Varieties from Alba County: Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Effects Against Resistant Pathogens
Camil Dan Șefan HARFAȘ, Mihai Sorin CERNEA, Cristina GAȘPAR, Florica MORARIU, Romeo Teodor CRISTINA, Eugenia DUMITRESCU
Abstract
×
The antimicrobial activity of honey is well documented and results from a complex interplay of physicochemical and biological factors such as low pH, high sugar content, enzymatic antioxidants, phenolic compounds, and microbial metabolites. This study evaluated the antimicrobial and antibiofilm properties of 14 honey varieties from Alba County, Romania, against multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from wound secretions. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined by broth microdilution, while biofilm inhibition (PI%) was assessed using the crystal violet microplate assay. MIC values ranged from 8% to 30% (v/v), depending on honey type and bacterial strain. The most effective samples (MIC ≤ 15%) included mountain, forest, raspberry, fir, and polyfloral honeys, while acacia, linden, rape, heather, and dandelion honeys showed lower efficacy (MIC ≥ 25%). Biofilm inhibition rates varied between 55% and 92%, with the highest activity observed in mountains, forest, and polyfloral honeys (PI% ≥ 85%). Statistical analysis revealed significant positive correlations between polyphenol content and antibiofilm activity (r=0.73 for E. coli; r=0.65 for S. aureus, p<0.01). These findings highlight the therapeutic potential of selected honey varieties as natural complementary agents in the prevention and management of multidrug-resistant bacterial infections.

West Nile virus causes a mosquito-borne zoonotic disease of public health importance. It’s evolution trends in human population is clearly predicted by the seroconversion in horses. The study was carried out in Iași County, Romania and 180 horses were screened for the presence of antibodies against WNV using an IgG competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Of the 184 samples tested, 118 (64.13%) were positive for WNV antibodies. Our findings sustain the hypothesis that WNV is endemic in the County. Determination of the seroprevalence and risk factors that are associated with WNV in horses is essential for adoption of effective prevention strategies and sustain the need for public awareness.

Abstract
×
The increasing incidence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections in veterinary medicine underscores the urgent need for alternative therapeutic strategies. This case report describes the successful use of a polyvalent bacteriophage suspension in the management of mandibular osteomyelitis in a dog infected with multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli. The patient had previously failed to respond to conventional antibiotic therapy. Following the administration of bacteriophages, a marked clinical improvement was observed, characterized by effective local infection control and the prevention of systemic bacterial dissemination. These findings highlight the therapeutic potential of bacteriophages as a viable adjunct or alternative treatment option in veterinary cases involving multidrug-resistant pathogens, particularly when standard antimicrobial regimens are ineffective.

Golgi Apparatus and Coronavirus Infections
Abstract
×
The Golgi apparatus and the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) function as essential locations for the assembly, maturation, and discharge of coronaviruses. Golgi complex presents multifaceted roles in the coronavirus replication cycle, assembly, and release mechanisms. Investigations concerning SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV, and other coronaviruses indicate that while the Golgi is not implicated in the initial entry phase, it is crucial for the processing of structural proteins, the assembly of virions, the maturation of glycoproteins, and their subsequent secretion. Coronaviruses significantly alter Golgi architecture and takeover host trafficking machinery to increase replication efficacy. Recent discoveries reveal virus-specific adaptations—such as Golgi fragmentation induced by SARS-CoV-2 and the emergence of novel organelle-like structures—that enhance viral infectivity.
