Detection of total and PRRSV-specific antibodies in oral fluids collected with different rope types from PRRSV-vaccinated and experimentally infected pigs.

of IgG, it seems that the currently used cotton ropes are an appropriate choice for sample collection in PRRSV  monitoring. Health Topics:  Animal health Category:  A1 FOS Classification:  4.03 ...

Experimental Schmallenberg virus infection of pigs.

transmission. Throughout the experiment blood, swabs and feces samples were collected and upon euthanasia at 28 dpi different organs (cerebrum, cerebellum, brain stem, lung, liver, iliac lymph nodes, kidney and ...

Limited interlaboratory comparison of Schmallenberg virus antibody detection in serum samples.

two ELISA s on all samples, and swiftly detected SBV antibodies using these assays. VNT was more sensitive in detecting SBV antibodies than several of the used ELISA assays. Based on the test results, ...

Molecular typing of monophasic Salmonella 4,[5]:i:- strains isolated in Belgium (2008-2011).

assessment was initiated. Two hundred fifty-three Salmonella isolates serotyped as 4,[5]:i:- during the period 2008-2011 in Belgium and originating from animal productions, food or human clinical samples were ...

Effect of a DIVA vaccine with and without in-feed use of coated calcium-butyrate on transmission of Salmonella Typhimurium in pigs.

n = 8) control group. Until six weeks post challenge, blood, individual faecal and finally tissue samples were examined. Adjusted transmission ratios ‘Ra’ were estimated, based on the challenge strain ...

Development, validation and evaluation of added diagnostic value of a q(RT)-PCR for the detection of genotype A strains of small ruminant lentiviruses.

sequences could be detected in lung samples and leukocytes pellets. The q(RT)- PCR identified SRLV positive animals in Belgian sheep flocks, but also SRLV isolates and samples from Scotland, The Netherlands, ...

Setting up a SPF chicken model for the pathotyping of West Nile virus (WNV) strains.

infection. Additionally, one-day-old SPF chickens were SC inoculated, and one-week-old SPF chickens were SC or IC inoculated with two Euro-Mediterranean isolates, Is98 and Fr2000, to sample blood and feathers ...

Seroprevalence and potential risk factors for Brucella spp. infection in traditional cattle, sheep and goats reared in urban, periurban and rural areas of Niger.

transmission of Brucella in this context. RESULTS: 5,192 animals from 681 herds were included in the study. Serum samples and hygroma fluids were collected. A household survey enabled to identify the risk ...

Influence of isolation methods on the occurrence of plasmid-carrying Yersinia enterocolitica serotype O:3 in slaughter pig tonsils, faeces and carcass surface swabs.

enrichment, and cold enrichment. Y. enterocolitica serotype O:3 was isolated from the tonsils and faeces of 55.3% and 25.6% of pigs, respectively. The pathogen was also recovered from 15.0% of swab samples ...
