Journal of Veterinary Laboratory Research is a two-quarterly journal published by the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Semnan University since 2008 in order to publish the results of applied and basic research in various fields of laboratory sciences and is ready to receive original research articles, short scientific articles. (Short communications), case reports, letters to the editor and review articles.
This journal, which had no place among the veterinary scientific journals, was decorated with the efforts of Semnan University and the valuable cooperation of a group of people interested in promoting veterinary knowledge and science, and will be presented to those interested. In medicine and veterinary medicine, whose main goal is to eradicate diseases from human and animal societies, accurate and timely diagnosis of diseases plays the most important role. At present, a large number of laboratories for diagnosing diseases of livestock, poultry, aquatic animals and economically beneficial insects (bees) in Iranian educational, research and executive institutions, in more than 20 veterinary schools, Iranian Veterinary Organization, Razi Research Institute, Fisheries Organization and the private sector and ... are active. The Veterinary Organization has dozens of general and specialized diagnostic laboratories for diagnosing diseases. From time to time, a new diagnostic laboratory is set up by the private sector. The task of these laboratories, is to detect infectious pathogens and metabolic diseases. 100 million broiler units scattered in 77,000 epidemiological units, 2 million monocotyledons, millions of domestic and wild carnivores, 1.5 billion industrial poultry, 4 million hives and a huge amount of fish and shrimp caught from inland waters, the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf. Every living thing that comes in contact with nature is exposed to infectious and metabolic diseases. According to recent studies in Iran, 190 infectious diseases of livestock, poultry, aquatic animals and bees have been reported, of which 29 are common diseases between animals and humans. Although the economic and health consequences of these diseases are very different, but in case of any of them, the first step to control, prevent and eradicate them is their rapid, accurate and timely diagnosis. Many infectious and metabolic diseases can be detected by blood tests, stools and pathological samples. The use of serological methods to diagnose many diseases before causing health and economic complications has become very common. In addition, the effect of different geographical, racial, nutritional, climatic conditions, etc. has caused a large number of strains, types, subtypes for bacteria, viruses, parasites in Iran and the world. In many cases, the identification, pathogenesis, and treatment of new forms are very different from previously known samples, and biotechnology laboratories can play an important role in their diagnosis by studying them at the cellular level and fingerprinting. To be. Emerging and emerging diseases, the number of which is increasing, require the use of accurate diagnostic methods. Rapid detection of some common human-animal infectious agents used by bioterrorists can save the lives of millions of innocent people. With the accurate and timely diagnosis of common diseases between humans and animals, the number of which is increasing day by day, many of them can be prevented. Thousands of specimens are sent to diagnostic laboratories daily for diagnosis. Many laboratories complain about receiving non-test samples, which do not use precise scientific criteria. On the other hand, sometimes the recipients of the answer do not accept the announced results and by testing a sample in several laboratories, they receive several different and sometimes contradictory answers. One of the reasons for this problem is the lack of standard methods and insufficient expertise of laboratory staff. The scientific journal "Laboratory Veterinary Research" is determined to collaborate with all those interested in veterinary knowledge and researchers, research articles in various fields of laboratory sciences, including bacteriology, virology, parasitology, mycology, pathology, clinical pathology, drug testing and Publish metabolic diseases that are somehow related to the laboratory and diagnosis, and with the help of experts from universities, organizations and various departments and in accordance with international standards to standardize laboratory methods used in the diagnosis of diseases, assist in veterinary medicine and take even a small step in promoting this scientific field by supporting the creation of seminars, congresses, educational workshops, etc.
