In vitro surrogate models to aid in the development of antivirals for the containment of foot-and-mouth disease outbreaks.
(CPE). Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells on the other hand supported viral replication in the absence of CPE. Antiviral tests were developed for ERAV in Vero A cells employing a viral RNA-reduction assay and ...
Limited interlaboratory comparison of Schmallenberg virus antibody detection in serum samples.
Neutralization Tests Orthobunyavirus Sensitivity and Specificity Sheep Sheep Diseases Abstract: Eight veterinary institutes in seven different countries in Europe participated in a limited interlaboratory ...
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.
to assess the performances of diagnostic assays used in the testing scheme for BVD as proposed by the two Belgian regional laboratories. Individual blood samples were collected from 4972 animals, and ...
Application of a cell-based protease assay for testing inhibitors of picornavirus 3C proteases.
picornaviral polyprotein is essential for viral replication. Therefore, viral proteases are attractive targets for anti-viral therapy. Most assays available for testing proteolytical activity of proteases are ...
Genotoxicity evaluation of nanosized titanium dioxide, synthetic amorphous silica and multi-walled carbon nanotubes in human lymphocytes.
Male Micronucleus Tests Microscopy, Electron, Transmission Mutagenicity Tests Nanostructures Nanotubes, Carbon Particle Size Scattering, Radiation Silicon Dioxide Titanium Abstract: Toxicological ...
Effect of a DIVA vaccine with and without in-feed use of coated calcium-butyrate on transmission of Salmonella Typhimurium in pigs.
deleted in this vaccine. This was in contrast with an in-house whole-cell ELISA testing for various Salmonella antigens, in which Salmonella-specific antibodies were found pre-challenge in the serum of the ...
Development, validation and evaluation of added diagnostic value of a q(RT)-PCR for the detection of genotype A strains of small ruminant lentiviruses.
Diseases Veterinary Medicine Abstract: Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) infect sheep and goats. Diagnosis of SRLV infection mostly relies on serological testing but more recently, also PCR is regarded as ...
Development and validation of three Capripoxvirus real-time PCRs for parallel testing.
different analytical and diagnostic parameters need to be evaluated to assure data quality. The implementation of parallel testing using multiple real-time PCR s with similar characteristics can improve ...
Antibacterial activity of a lectin-like Burkholderia cenocepacia protein.
Volume 2, Issue 4, p.566-75 (2013) Keywords: Bacterial Proteins Bacteriocins burkholderia Burkholderia Infections Humans Lectins Microbial Sensitivity Tests Abstract: Bacteriocins of the LlpA family have ...
Effect of saliva stabilisers on detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in oral fluid by quantitative reverse transcriptase real-time PCR.
spiked with PRRSV. To determine RNA stability, porcine oral fluid, with or without commercially available saliva stabilisers, was spiked with PRRSV, stored at 4°C or room temperature and tested for the ...
