Meta-analysis of Chicken – Salmonella infection experiments

Analysis of Gene Expression Responses to a Salmonella Infection in Rugao Chicken Intestine Using GeneChips

Poultry products are an important source of Salmonella enterica. An effective way to reduce food poisoning due to Salmonella would be to breed chickens more resistant to infection. Unfortunately host responses to Salmonella are complex with many factors involved. To learn more about responses to Salmonella in young chickens of 2 wk old, a cDNA Microarray containing 13,319 probes was performed t...

Antibiotic resistance profiles of Salmonella serotypes isolated from animals in Iran: a meta-analysis

Background: Salmonella infection (salmonellosis) is a zoonotic bacterial disease. Widespread use of antibiotics in livestock and poultry production for different purposes such as treatment and growth promotion has led to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant Salmonella, causing treatment of Salmonella infections more difficult with each passing year. Aims: To determine the antibiotic resistance...

Meta-Analysis of Multiple Simulation-Based Experiments

Computer simulations facilitate the study of real world phenomena by providing safe, controlled, flexible, and repeatable experimental environments at costs far lower than other options. Both the validity of the simulation model and the scope of its validity determine the degree to which the findings can be generalized and applied to real world situations and problems. In practice, no single mo...

Meta-analysis of Multiple Treatments Experiments

Salmonella in a chicken hatchery.

Due to concern about increasing mortality among 7 -day old chicks in a chicken hatchery the management arranged to screen all hatchery staff for salmonella excretion. The hatchery is part of a complex involving all stages of chicken meat production but is physically separate from the broiler units and chicken processing plant. The hatchery also has its own staff, there being no exchange of staf...
