Lumpy Skin Disease Virus Genome Sequence Analysis: Putative Spatio-Temporal Epidemiology, Single Gene versus Whole Genome Phylogeny and Genomic Evolution.
Southeast Asia. We concluded that using only a single gene (cheap, fast and easy to routinely use) for sequencing lacks phylogenetic and spatiotemporal resolution and we recommend to create at least one WGS ...
Methodological choices in brucellosis burden of disease assessments: A systematic review
estimates (Years of Life Lost) in their assessments due to lack of data or the assumption that brucellosis is not a fatal disease. Only two studies used a model with variable health states and corresponding ...
Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus Prevalence in Sheep, Wild Boar and Ticks in Belgium.
lacking, and no studies have assessed its seroprevalence in sheep. Serum samples of 480 sheep from all over Belgium and 831 wild boar hunted in Flanders (northern Belgium) were therefore screened for TBEV ...
Seroprevalence and risk factors related to small ruminant lentivirus infections in Belgian sheep and goats.
however exists, but less than 2% of the farmers participate to the program. The current lack of SRLV seroprevalence data and knowledge on risk factors related to SRLV seropositivity in this hobbyist sector ...
Improved Metrological Traceability of Particle Size Values Measured with Line-Start Incremental Centrifugal Liquid Sedimentation.
with uncertainties for the assigned modal diameter and effective particle density. The lack of such information and the absence of a traceability statement make it difficult for the end-user to estimate ...
Evaluation of the kinetics of anti-NP and anti-HA antibody after infection of Pekin ducks with low pathogenic avian influenza virus
Dissimilar kinetics of the antibodies detected during the follow-up evaluation of the humoral immune responses in experimentally infected ducks may explain this lack of correlation. Indeed, anti- NP titres ...
Inter-laboratory evaluation of the performance parameters of a Lateral Flow Test device for the detection of Bluetongue virus-specific antibodies.
the BT LFT device is a rapid and sensitive first-line serological test that can be used in the field, especially in areas endemic for the disease where there is a lack of diagnostic facilities. Health ...
Pseudorabies virus isolates from domestic pigs and wild boars show no apparent in vitro differences in replication kinetics and sensitivity to interferon-induced antiviral status.
differences in virulence are, however, lacking. Different virulence determinants that can be assessed in vitro were determined for five domestic swine strains, four wild boar strains and the NIA3 reference ...
Regulatory T-cell development and function are impaired in mice lacking membrane expression of full length intercellular adhesion molecule-1.
contribution of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) to adaptive immune responses, we analysed T-cell development and function in mice lacking full-length ICAM-1 (ICAM-1(tm1Jcgr)). Compared with wild-type ...
Evaluation of convenient pretreatment protocols for RNA virus metagenomics in serum and tissue samples.
sequences, but there is often a lack of knowledge about their effective influence on the viral discovery sensitivity. We evaluate some convenient and widely used approaches for RNA virus discovery in clinical ...
