Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Veterinary drugs not only play the role of preventing and treating animal diseases, but also have an important role in improving animal production performance, improving the quality of animal products, promoting feed conversion and utilization to improve feed returns, increasing the economic and social benefits of animal production, improving the environment, and maintaining ecological balance. Veterinary drugs are the fundamental guarantee for maintaining animal health and improving animal welfare. They are the basic force for preventing as wel as controlling zoonotic diseases and improving human health. Therefore, the research, development, and revaluation of veterinary drugs are persistent requirements in animal health.
This Special Issue will explore advanced research in veterinary drugs, including novel targets, structures, mechanisms in drug discovery, toxicity, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, residues, etc. By encompassing various experimental systems and promoting interdisciplinary research, we aim to highlight cutting-edge research and novel insights. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive understanding of veterinary drug mechanisms, their interactions with biological systems, and their potential therapeutic applications. We welcome submissions that explore the multifaceted roles of veterinary drugs, from molecular mechanisms to clinical applications, fostering collaboration among scientific disciplines to improve veterinary drug development and applications.
