Differentiation of the seven serotypes of foot-and-mouth disease virus by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction.
accurately. The development of the test was carried out on virus isolates grown in tissue culture prior to cDNA synthesis and PCR using various sets of primers. Primers P33 and P32 were used for the consensus ...
Epidemiology of measles and mumps in Belgium, 1994-1995
network of GP s is still a useful tool for monitoring changes in the epidemiology of measles and mumps. Data from this network must be tested by information on vaccination coverage in both Regions ...
Rapid diagnosis of encephalomyocarditis virus infections in pigs using a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.
located in a conserved region of the 3D gene of the viral genome, was developed and tested on 114 different EMCV isolates. The identity of the respective amplicons was confirmed by sequencing. The potential ...

42% to 57% of hospitals. In 1995, 88% of participants detected MRSA strains by disk diffusion tests, with little improvement in standardization since 1991. More centers employed the oxacillin agar ...
Quantitative image analysis as an alternative to chemical analysis for follow-up of liver biopsies from a toucan with hemochromatosis. A technique with potential value for the follow-up of hemochromatosis in humans.
another capable of processing colored images. Using Pearson’s correlation test, the results with both quantitative image analysis systems were compared to the results obtained by chemical analysis. RESULTS: ...
