Differential Viral Fitness Between H1N1 and H3N8 Avian Influenza Viruses Isolated from Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos).
biologically by experimental inoculation. Virus excretion and humoral response induced by both isolated viruses were evaluated in mallards after a first infection followed by a homo- or heterosubtypic ...
A trend analysis of antimicrobial resistance in commensal Escherichia coli from several livestock species in Belgium (2011-2014).
categories. Such outputs can be used as objective evidence to evaluate the possible efficacy of measures taken by animal health authorities and stakeholders in the livestock sector to limit antimicrobial ...
In silico epitope analysis of unique and membrane associated proteins from Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis for immunogenicity and vaccine evaluation.
paratuberculosis disease affecting ruminants worldwide. The aim of this study was to identify potential candidate antigens and epitopes by bio and immuno-informatic tools which could be later evaluated as vaccines ...
Reaching women who do not participate in the regular cervical cancer screening programme by offering self-sampling kits: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised trials.
Offering devices for self-sampling has the potential to increase participation of hard-to-reach women. METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to evaluate the participation after an ...
Growth of Stressed Strains of Four Non-O157 Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Serogroups in Five Enrichment Broths.
Keywords: Culture Media Serogroup Shiga-Toxigenic Escherichia coli Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate (i) the behavior of several strains of non- O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli ...
Evaluation of the pathogenicity of West Nile virus (WNV) lineage 2 strains in a SPF chicken model of infection: NS3-249Pro mutation is neither sufficient nor necessary for conferring virulence.
We thus sought to evaluate the weight of the NS3249P ro genotype as a virulence marker of WNV in an in vivo avian model of WNV infection. We therefore characterized three genetically-related ...
First Belgian national EQA for special stains in histopathology
consistentand accurate results that, ultimately, impact a patient diagnosis. They enable laboratories to evaluate theirperformance and methods compared with that of their peers or with the whole laboratory ...
Evolution of the implementation of a quality management system in the Belgian laboratories for anatomic pathology
Standard Operating Procedures (SOP s) and validity date. In the course of 2015, during a second evaluation step, the laboratories were asked to actualize the table presented in the survey of 2014. In ...
Arbo-VIRTUESS: Evaluation of the use of non-invasive tests for early screening and survey of arboviruses
(2015) Keywords: Arbo-virtuess EVALUATION International non-invasive SCREENING survey symposium Test tests use Health Topics: Health and disease monitoring Surveillance de la santé et des maladies Ziekten ...
Clinical and Analytical Performance of the Onclarity HPV Assay Using the VALGENT Framework.
Specificity Young adult Abstract: As the demand for human papillomavirus (HPV)-related cervical screening increases, emerging HPV tests must be evaluated robustly using well-annotated samples, such as those ...
