during the 2006 epidemic in north-western Europe. Data on surveillance and control measures implemented in the affected European Union (EU) Member States (MS) were extracted from the legislation and ...
The importance of quality assurance/quality control of diagnostics to increase the confidence in global foot-and-mouth disease control.
and confidence in this global trade can increase only if appropriate control measures are applied. As foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) diagnostics will play an essential role in this respect, the Food and ...
A survey on biosecurity and management practices in Belgian pig herds.
biosecurity, few used measures such as showering (2.1%) and quarantine periods for people entering the premises (7.1%). We also found three management-practices clusters, although their interpretation was not ...

Uncertainty of measurement for competitive and indirect ELISAs.
uncertainty Abstract: A method for the estimation of the uncertainty of measurements for Gaussian outcomes of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is described using competitive and indirect foot and mouth ...
Pivotal role of ChIFNgamma in the pathogenesis and immunosuppression of infectious bursal disease.
other hand, with a strong inhibition of proliferation and activation of mitogen-stimulated splenocytes from infected chickens, as measured by ChIFNgamma production. Two weeks after viral inoculation, ...
