Antiviral activity of Ecasol against feline calicivirus, a surrogate of human norovirus

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2012
Summary: Human norovirus (NoV) is a major cause of acute gastroenteritis in closed settings such as hospitals, hotels and cruise ships. The virus survives on inanimate surfaces for extended periods of time, and environmental contamination has been ...

Allogenic blood patch pleurodesis for management of presumptive secondary spontaneous pneumothorax in a cat

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 7‐year‐old spayed female domestic shorthair cat was presented with respiratory distress due to presumed spontaneous pneumothorax. High‐resolution computed tomography identified subpleural blebs and paraseptal emphysema with peribronchial thickening and bronchiectasis.

Transcriptomic analysis of Crandell-Rees feline kidney cell infections with field and vaccine feline calicivirus strains

Virus Research
Feline upper respiratory tract disease (URTD) is a significant health concern in crowded environments, such as catteries and shelters. Feline calicivirus (FCV), which is endemic in domestic cats, is a major contributor to URTD and can cause a range of ...

Clinical and computed tomographic characteristics of conjunctival large cell lymphoma in a cat

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract This case report describes a 12‐year‐old, female, neutered domestic shorthair cat presenting with an acute, diffuse, non‐resolving mass‐like lesion affecting the right conjunctiva. Despite an initial conscious snip biopsy result negative for malignancy and contrast‐enhanced computed tomography findings suggestive of sino‐orbital aspergillosis,

Designing Scalable Mechano‐Virucidal Nanostructured Acrylic Surfaces for Enhanced Viral Inactivation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 23, 23 April 2026.
Can a surface be designed to physically break viruses? This study explores how nanoscale geometry—specifically the spacing of tiny pillars—can determine whether viruses remain intact or rupture. Using flexible acrylic and a scalable fabrication process, the authors develop nanopillared, transparent surfaces that show strong antiviral activity without ...

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 26, 30 March 2026.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Epidemiological Surveillance of Respiratory Diseases in Urban Stray Cats in Shanghai

Animals
Urban stray cats are cats without owners that survive in the wild for extended periods of time. They are one of the most common stray animals in cities, and as such, monitoring the pathogens carried by urban stray cats is an important component of urban ...

Construction of Reverse Genetics System for Feline Calicivirus FCV‐BJ616 and Proteomic Analysis

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study successfully isolated the FCV‐BJ616 strain derived from cats and established a reverse genetics system. In vivo experiments showed that rFCV‐BJ616 exhibits wild‐type virulence, leading to high fever, weight loss, and multi‐organ lesions in infected cats. Proteomic analysis indicated that both rFCV‐BJ616 and FCV‐BJ616 share similar regulatory
