Distinction between persistent and transient infection in a bovine viral diarrhoea (BVD) control programme: appropriate interpretation of real-time RT-PCR and antigen-ELISA test results.

demonstrated that individual results differed according to the type of assay used (P < 0.001): 140 animals (2.8%) were positive by RT- PCR and 72 (1.4%) by antigen- ELISA. A second blood sample was taken ...

Molecular epidemiological analysis of the transboundary transmission of 2003 highly pathogenic avian influenza H7N7 outbreaks between the Netherlands and Belgium.

Poultry Risk Factors Sequence Analysis Turkeys Abstract: The 2003 outbreak of Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H7N7) in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany resulted in significant genetic ...

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

isolation from faecal and/or tissue samples. RESULTS: In both intervention groups, Ra values were lower compared to the positive control group, although these differences were not significant. In the ...

Interaction of Aspergillus fumigatus conidia with Acanthamoeba castellanii parallels macrophage-fungus interactions.

observed with light and transmission electron microscopy. These processes resulted in structural changes in A. castellanii, leading to amoebal permeabilization without cell lysis. In conclusion, A. ...

Infectious Bursal Disease: a complex host-pathogen interaction.

most important obstacle in the establishment of control programs. In this context, recombinant HVT and immune complex vaccines show promising results. Health Topics:  Animal health Manuscript versions:  ...

Behavior of Yersinia enterocolitica in the presence of the bacterivorous Acanthamoeba castellanii.

characteristics. Results showed that all Y. enterocolitica strains persist in association with A. castellanii for at least 14 days, and associations with A. castellanii enhanced survival of Yersinia under ...

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

obtain viral sequences. However, these studies showed a biased distribution of the resulting sequence reads over the analyzed genomes. The aim of this study was to elucidate the mechanisms that lead to ...

Validation of a commercially available indirect ELISA using a nucleocapside recombinant protein for detection of Schmallenberg virus antibodies.

Nucleocapsid Proteins Orthobunyavirus Reagent Kits, Diagnostic Recombinant Proteins Reproducibility of Results Roc Curve Sheep Abstract: A newly developed Enzym Like Immuno Sorbant Assay (ELISA) based on the ...

Proteomic characterization of murid herpesvirus 4 extracellular virions.

results extend previous work aimed at determining the composition of gammaherpesvirus virions and provide novel insights for understanding MuHV-4 biology. Health Topics:  Animal health Category:  A1 FOS ...
