Detection of Clinical and Subclinical Lumpy Skin Disease Using Ear Notch Testing and Skin Biopsies.
notches are less fit for purpose, as LSDV DNA is only detectable in these samples several days after it is detectable in blood samples. On the other hand, blood samples are less advisable for the detection ...
Comparative Evaluation of Lumpy Skin Disease Virus-Based Live Attenuated Vaccines.
Kris De Clercq Source: Vaccines (Basel), Volume 9, Issue 5 (2021) Abstract: Vaccines form the cornerstone of any control, eradication and preventative strategy and this is no different for lumpy skin ...
Overview of diagnostic tools for Capripox virus infections.
(Goatpox) with severe socio-economic impact in case of wide scale outbreaks. Therefore there is a constant need for adequate diagnostic tools. The assays must be fit-for-purpose to identify the virus quickly ...
Improved Metrological Traceability of Particle Size Values Measured with Line-Start Incremental Centrifugal Liquid Sedimentation.
size results obtained with disc- CLS. For this purpose, the particle size and effective particle density of polyvinyl chloride calibrants were measured using different validated methods, and measurement ...
Evaluation of 16 commercial antibody ELISAs for the detection of bovine viral diarrhea virus-specific antibodies in serum and milk using well-characterized sample panels.
p.1040638717724839 (2017) Abstract: We performed a thorough fit-for-purpose evaluation of commercial ELISA s for the detection of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV)-specific antibodies in serum and in milk by testing ...
A Refined Guinea Pig Model of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Infection for Assessing the Efficacy of Antiviral Compounds.
protection afforded by vaccination. These results validate the suitability of the enhanced GP model for the purpose of initial evaluation of inhibitors of FMDV replication and illustrate the potential of ...
Evaluation of a hierarchical ascendant clustering process implemented in a veterinary syndromic surveillance system.
by hierarchical ascendant classification (HAC). In the present study, this HAC clustering process was evaluated using a reference set of data that, for the purpose of this evaluation, was a priori ...
Serological diagnosis of bovine neosporosis: a Bayesian evaluation of two antibody ELISA tests for in vivo diagnosis in purchased and abortion cattle.
both tests were fit for purpose, despite an expected false negative fraction of ±0.5 per cent in the Purchase population and ±5 per cent in the Abortion population. In addition, a false positive fraction ...
Campylobacter carcass contamination throughout the slaughter process of Campylobacter-positive broiler batches.
quantified at seven sampling sites throughout the slaughter process. For this purpose, in four slaughterhouses samples were collected from twelve Campylobacter positive batches. Broilers from all visits ...
Development and validation of three Capripoxvirus real-time PCRs for parallel testing.
sensitivity/specificity with a reduced analysis time and is thus a proven useful tool for identification of many pathogens, including Capripoxviruses. In order for a real-time PCR to be used in a diagnostic capacity, the ...
