The use of serosurveys following emergency vaccination, to recover the status of "foot-and-mouth disease free where vaccination is not practised".

Antibodies, Viral Cattle Cattle Diseases Epidemiologic Methods Foot-and-Mouth Disease Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Serologic Tests Vaccination Viral Vaccines Abstract: To eliminate incursions of foot-and-mouth ...

Co-occurrence of free-living protozoa and foodborne pathogens on dishcloths: implications for food safety.

recovered using centrifugation. For enumeration of free-living protozoa on dishcloths, the Most Probable Number method is a convenient method. Enrichment was used to assess FLP diversity on dishcloths (n=38). ...

False-positive results in metagenomic virus discovery: a strong case for follow-up diagnosis.

signature in negative extraction controls was demonstrated. Further investigation using an alternative extraction method identified a contamination of the originally used Qiagen extraction columns with ...

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

pathogens. Until now, the most commonly used method to collect oral fluid is by hanging a cotton rope in a pen. However, concerns about the influence of rope material on subsequent immunological assays have ...

Towards a typing strategy for Arcobacter species isolated from humans and animals and assessment of the in vitro genomic stability.

environmental reservoirs, and are increasingly associated with human illness. To elucidate the routes of infection, several characterization methods such as pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), amplified ...

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

Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Nick De Regge; Ann Brigitte Cay Source: J Virol Methods, Volume 194, Issue 1-2, p.250-7 (2013) Keywords: Animals Belgium Goat Diseases ...

Development and validation of three Capripoxvirus real-time PCRs for parallel testing.

Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Andy Haegeman; Zro, K; Frank Vandenbussche; Demeestere, L; Willem Van Campe; Ennaji, M M; Kris De Clercq Source: J Virol Methods, Volume ...

Effect of saliva stabilisers on detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in oral fluid by quantitative reverse transcriptase real-time PCR.

Abstract: This study evaluated the effect of extraction-amplification methods, storage temperature and saliva stabilisers on detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) RNA by ...

Characterization of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from healthy carrier chickens.

livestock including poultry, little is known about the epidemiology of MRSA in broiler and layer chickens. We therefore investigated 372 poultry farms in Belgium. We also compared the isolation method ...

The origin of biased sequence depth in sequence-independent nucleic acid amplification and optimization for efficient massive parallel sequencing.

a 3’ random part used to prime complementary DNA synthesis and a 5’ defined tag sequence for subsequent amplification. Recently, this amplification method was combined with next generation sequencing to ...
