Nowadays, animal health and production issues are being addressed from different points of view through the application of new technological tools that involve different scientific disciplines to accelerate progress toward a world safe and secure from infectious disease threats and to promote global health security. Pathogens of animal origin are an important and growing global threat to human and animal health, food safety, animal production and economic growth, so that new and varied technologies, with different scientific bases, are currently being developed and tested to face these challenges. These emerging technologies have applications in disease diagnosis, treatment, drug delivery, animal nutrition, animal breeding, reproduction, tissue engineering and value addition to animal products. Therefore, a cordial invitation is made so that scientists from all backgrounds and areas have an opportunity to become involved and contribute with these and other technologies that could help improve problems related to production and animal health.
The present Research Topic aims to address the use of different technological strategies that have a promising impact on the incidence and significance of animal diseases to improve the health and production of animal species. Technologies focused on the diagnosis, prevention, control and / or treatment of animal diseases of importance to public health and animal production, based on new drug delivery systems (micro/nano systems, solid dispersion, etc), vaccines, animal nutrition, alternatives to antibiotics (nutraceuticals), biosorbent/sorbent materials, among others that could explore the future challenges of science and technology as important strategies in animal health and production will be highly considered for publication.
This Research Topic encourages the submission of manuscripts that explore themes such as (but not limited to):
- Veterinary vaccines against diseases of public health importance and animal production.
- Evaluation of nutraceuticals (probiotics, prebiotics, enzymes, organic acids, phytobiotics) to improve performance, nutritional metabolism, and animal health.
- Use of pharmaceutical strategies such as micro/nano systems to functionalize new alternatives in the prevention, control, and treatment of diseases in animals.
- New methods for obtaining biosorbents/sorbents to mitigate diseases in animal production.
- Study of interactions for the selection of nutraceuticals in products intended for animal production.
- Use or proteomics to evaluate effects of nutraceuticals in gut integrity, inflammation, and microbiota.
- Systemic markers that have well-defined linkages to gut health.
- Validation of factors involved in normal barrier functions and intestinal permeability markers associated with epithelial injury and repair that can be traced back to gut dysfunction.
