https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ltx-315.html Bovine brucellosis is a neglected zoonotic disease prevalent in several developing countries including India. It has been successfully controlled in many developed countries by using vaccination in conjunction with extensive surveillance and test-and-cull approaches, but some of these approaches do not suit Indian culture and norms. This study was conducted to investigate the feasibility and social acceptability of various bovine brucellosis control strategies in India. Focus group discussions and key-informant interviews were conducted with veterinarians, para-veterinarians, veterinary academics, farmers and other stakeholders. Vaccination with the Brucella strain 19 vaccine was considered feasible, but the participants were concerned about the risk of self-inoculation, the inability to vaccinate pregnant and male animals, the difficulty to differentiate vaccinated from diseased animals and the challenges of maintaining the vaccine cold chain in India. As expected, the test-and-cull approach was not consideretween farms. This study recommends using vaccination and biosecurity along with some ancillary strategies to control brucellosis in India. Information from the study could be used to develop an evidence-based disease control program for the disease in the country.The main objective of this study is to assess the behavior of the steel collimator plug (steel plug) dedicated to the Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis (PGAA) facility in the neutron beam tube (NB1) of the 2 MW Moroccan TRIGA Mark-II research reactor. The main function of this steel plug is to reduce the neutron and gamma beam cross section from 15 cm to 5 cm in diameter. This steel plug plays a crucial role in reactor safety because it replaces the original neutron beam plug while also stopping the entire incoming neutron beam. Three aspects were therefore involved in this study, including i) the released heat induced by both neutron and gamma r
