Current Economic Situation In Bosnia And Herzegovina, Goran Mirascic Ph.D.
Current Economic Situation In Bosnia And Herzegovina, Goran Mirascic Ph.D.
Journal of International and Global Studies
This article provides an overview of the current economic situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Beginning in the second half of 2008, macroeconomic conditions in B&H began precipitating a decline in economic activity. While the global financial crisis was among the factors contributing to this decline, it was far from the only factor.

Serological Study Of Leptospirosis Among Dairy Cattle In Bosnia And Herzegovina, Maid Rifatbegovic, Zinka Maksimovic
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
A total of 75,206 blood serum samples from dairy cattle and quarantined heifers was collected between 2001 and 2007 and analyzed for bovine leptospirosis by the microscopic agglutination test (MAT). Serovar Hardjo was used for testing of all sera, with the addition of 2 or 3 randomly chosen other serovars (Grippotyphosa, Icterohaemorrhagiae, Pomona, Bataviae, Canicola, and/or Saxcoebing). From the total number of sera tested, 1197 (1.59%) were serologically positive, with a decreasing tendency over the years of research. The most prevalent serovar was Pomona (1.32%), followed by Hardjo (0.52%) and Grippotyphosa (0.37%). The differences among the studied regions in terms …
