Prevalence of herds with young sows seropositive to pseudorabies (Aujeszky's disease) in northern Belgium.
= 9.68, 95% CI = 5.17-18.12). No association was detected between the PRV herd seroprevalence and purchase policy of breeding pigs (purchased gilts, or use of homebred gilts only). Health Topics: Animal ...
Highly sensitive detection of swine vesicular disease virus based on a single tube RT-PCR system and DIG-ELISA detection.
Abstract: A highly sensitive detection of swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV) based on a single tube RT- PCR system and digoxigenin (DIG)- PCR- ELISA detection was developed. Using a one tube RT- PCR system, ...
Identification of encephalomyocarditis virus in clinical samples by reverse transcription-PCR followed by genetic typing using sequence analysis.
of the gene which encodes the viral polymerase was assessed with experimental and field samples. In addition, the use of the amplified sequences for an epidemiological study was evaluated. The heart ...
Successful treatment of an equine preputial fibrosarcoma using 5-fluorouracil/evaluation of the treatment using quantitative PCNA and Ki67 (MIB 1) immunostaining. (case report).
related factor–Ki67 (MIB1). Using computerized quantitative image analysis of these sections, Mitotic index (PCNA), Growth Fraction (Ki67) and total nuclear area percentage of the dermis were calculated. ...
A Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst low molecular mass fraction evokes a CD4+ T-cell-dependent IFN-gamma response in bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cell cultures.
individual differences between the hosts were observed. Using a complement-mediated technique CD4 + T-cells or WC1 +gammadelta T-cells were depleted, whereupon the remaining lymphocyte cultures were stimulated ...
Acute pancreatitis in chickens due to non-virulent Newcastle disease virus.
from a backyard flock. Using monoclonal antibodies, the virus was shown to be different from the vaccinal virus strains Hitchner, La Sota and Ulster. The virus was shown to replicate in the pancreas of ...
An experimental infection with a classical swine fever virus in weaner pigs. II. The use of serological data to estimate the day of virus introduction in natural outbreaks.
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Laevens, H; Deluyker, H; F. Koenen; Van Caenegem, G; Vermeersch, J P; de Kruif, A Source: Vet Q, Volume 20, Issue 2, p.46-9 (1998) Keywords: Animals Antibodies, Viral Belgium Classical Swine Feve ...
In ovo treatment with an aromatase inhibitor masculinizes postnatal hormone levels, abdominal fat pad content, and GH pulsatility in broiler chickens.
serial blood samples were withdrawn every 10 min for 5 hr, wherein GH pulsatility characteristics were determined using deconvolution analysis. The proportional abdominal fat pad weight was reduced ...
Characterisation of chicken monocytes, macrophages and interdigitating cells by the monoclonal antibody KUL01.
Abstract: The distribution, function and ontogeny of the mononuclear phagocyte system of the chicken were characterised using the monoclonal antibody (MA b) KUL01. KUL01 specifically recognises chicken ...
Reduction of singleton reactors against swine vesicular disease virus by a combination of virus neutralisation test, monoclonal antibody-based competitive ELISA and isotype specific ELISA.
trade. For the virus neutralisation test, the gold standard for SVD, singleton reactors are found at a level of 1-3/1000. Singleton reactors also occur when other serological testing methods are used. The ...
