Study of the intestinal microbiome of healthy and atopic dogs.
Lagoa, Tânia; Conceição, Sara; Laranjo, Marta; Martins, Luís; Queiroga, CristinaIntroduction: Atopic dermatitis is the most common chronic pruritic inflammatory skin condition with a high impact on public health. This study proposes that the development of atopic dermatitis (AD), is associated with dysbiosis, not only of the skin microbiome, but also of the gut flora, or microbiota. Therefore, imbalances in commensal bacteria can negatively impact the immune system response and lead to inf...
Exploring the microbial diversity of kombucha
Queiroga, Maria Cristina; Conceição, Sara; Pias, Guilhermina; Potes, Maria Eduarda; Laranjo, MartaKombucha is a unique fermented beverage made from a blend of brewed tea, typically black or green, sugar, and a Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast (SCOBY). This concoction undergoes a fermentation process, during which the SCOBY consumes the sugar and transforms the tea into a tangy, slightly effervescent, and lightly carbonated beverage. The result is a drink with a complex tangy, slightly effervescent, a...
Antimicrobial Resistance in Bacteria from Meat and Meat Products: A One Health ...

The value of cytology in the diagnosis of endometritis in the mare - correlatio...
Bessa de Carvalho, Inês; Conceição, Sara; Gumarães, Helena; Queiroga, Maria Cristina; Laranjo, Marta; Bettencourt, Elisa; Lopes, Jordana; Branco, SandraEndometritis is a common cause of infertility in mares, and the presence of uterine inflammation can be determined by cytology or biopsy. Microbiological analyses and testing the sensitivity to antibiotics are important to maximise the therapy efficacy.Mares with inflammation but no bacterial growth highlight the high sensibility of cytology in the diagnosis of uterine inflammation. A positive culture without i...
DIAGNÓSTICO E TRATAMENTO DA ENDOMETRITE NA ÉGUA
Bessa de Carvalho, Inês; Guimarães, Helena; Cardoso, Madalena; Pias, Guilhermina; Silva, Carolina; Conceição, Sara; Sena Lopes, Jordana; Branco, SandraA endometrite é uma das principais causas de infertilidade na égua, sendo uma preocupação importante para criadores e médicos veterinários que trabalham em reprodução equina. Em termos práticos, denominamos por endometrite qualquer inflamação uterina já que, na égua, a maioria dos casos envolve apenas o endométrio. A endometrite pode classificar-se em aguda ou crónica, no que respeita à apresentação clínica, po...
