Complete coding sequence of a novel picorna-like virus in a blackbird infected with Usutu virus.

specific for ORF1 confirmed the presence of high levels of this novel virus in the original sample. Nucleotide composition analysis suggests that blackbird arilivirus is of dietary (plant) origin. Health ...

Seroprevalence and risk factors related to small ruminant lentivirus infections in Belgian sheep and goats.

makes it difficult to evaluate the risk of SRLV transmission from non-certified to SRLV free certified farms. We performed a nationwide SRLV seroprevalence study based on a stratified sampling ...

Development and validation of a TaqMan probe-based real-time PCR method for the differentiation of wild type lumpy skin disease virus from vaccine virus strains.

163 LSDV-positive samples, including field specimens and samples from experimentally vaccinated/infected animals. The method is able to confirm diagnosis in suspect cases, it differentiates infected ...

Laboratory validation of two real-time RT-PCR methods with 5'-tailed primers for an enhanced detection of foot-and-mouth disease virus.

foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV). For an optimal detection of FMDV in clinical samples, it is advised to use both assays simultaneously (King et al., 2006). Recently, Vandenbussche et al. (2016) showed that the ...

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.

2 panels of well-characterized serum and milk samples. Sixteen ELISA s from 9 different manufacturers, available on the Belgian market at the time of our study, were assessed for their diagnostic and ...

Brucella abortus is Prevalent in Both Humans and Animals in Bangladesh.

animal samples and 500 human sera were tested. Animal samples from cattle, goats and sheep (including milk, bull semen, vaginal swabs and placentas) were cultured for Brucella spp. Three test-positive ...

Specific antibody-mediated immunity in the reproductive tract of laying chickens immunized against Newcastle disease with conventional attenuated and inactivated vaccines.

tested by: (i) haemagglutination inhibition (HI) test, (ii) commercial IDV et ND-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and (iii) NDV-specific IgG, IgM and IgA in-house ELISA s. For all sampling time ...

Complete Genome Sequence of an Avian Metapneumovirus Subtype A Strain Isolated from Chicken () in Brazil.

metapneumovirus (aMPV) isolated from a tracheal tissue sample of a commercial layer flock. The complete genome sequence of aMPV-A/chicken/Brazil- SP /669/2003 was obtained using MiSeq (Illumina, Inc.) sequencing. ...

Risks for animal health related to the presence of zearalenone and its modified forms in feed

CONTAM Panel in 2016 were used. The dietary exposure was estimated on 17,706 analytical results with high proportions of left-censored data (ZEN about 60%, ZAN about 70%, others close to 100%). Samples for ...
