A new method for monitoring the spread of a deadly bee disease

ANSES has developed a new method that can accurately identify the strains of bacteria responsible for American foulbrood, a deadly bee disease. This method will make it possible to trace the origin of infections and refine health measures to prevent transmission of this disease, for which no treatment is available.

Harmonising the tests for detecting plant pests

The results of the European Valitest project, coordinated by ANSES, were presented at the project's final general assembly on Wednesday 9 June. This project assessed a total of 83 tests, and led to diagnostic practices being harmonised for 11 plant pests.

ANSES appointed international reference laboratory for contagious equine metritis

On 11 June 2021, the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) appointed ANSES as its reference laboratory for contagious equine metritis. This disease reduces fertility in mares and has major economic consequences.

Consequences of acute exposure to glyphosate in trout

Research conducted by ANSES shows that exposure to a high concentration of glyphosate does not reduce trout resistance to viral infections. However, the combination of these two stress factors of chemical and infectious origin revealed changes in the activity of some enzymes of energy metabolism in the fish.

Watch out for ticks, even in your garden

Especially active in the spring and autumn, ticks are the main vectors of pathogens responsible for infectious diseases in Europe. In particular, they transmit the bacterium that causes Lyme disease in humans. Bites can occur in woods and forests, but also in gardens. A new participatory research programme in Nancy, entitled TIQUoJARDIN, is seeking to gain a better understanding of the risks associated with garden ticks and the pathogens they carry.

How reliable are the tests for Q fever?

The Animal Q Fever Unit of ANSES’s Sophia-Antipolis Laboratory has just published a study comparing the performance of the three commercially available tests for detecting Q fever in animals. This work will help improve the interpretation of test results to better screen for the disease.

ANSES, EnvA and INRAE renew two joint research units for animal diseases

ANSES, EnvA and INRAE have renewed their agreement on two joint research units (UMRs): the BIPAR unit (molecular biology and parasitic immunology) and the Virology unit. Both units work on animal diseases and the risk of transmission to humans: the first on parasitic diseases and diseases transmitted by arthropod vectors, the second on viral diseases.

Monitoring resistance to plant protection products around the world

Scientists from ANSES and INRAE have analysed the systems in place to monitor resistance to plant protection products around the world. Their findings showed that studies on this subject are often engaged by both private and public players, at the same time and in the same country. Given the complementary nature of these approaches, greater cooperation would increase the efficiency of monitoring systems.
