Comparison of dried blood spot, buccal swab, cloacal swab and feces as DNA sources to identify avian sexes by PCR

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2018
Absence of sexual dimorphism makes it difficult to determine bird’s sex. A number of both invasive and noninvasive methods as a DNA template of sampling for avian sexing can be used. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of different sources of DNA for avian sexing by PCR. Samples were collected from dried blood spots, buccal swabs, cloacal

Detection of Avian Influenza Virus from Cloacal Swabs Using a Disposable Well Gate FET Sensor

Advanced Healthcare Materials, 2017
Current methods to detect avian influenza viruses (AIV) are time consuming and lo inw sensitivity, necessitating a faster and more sensitive sensor for on‐site epidemic detection in poultry farms and urban population centers. This study reports a field effect transistor (FET) based AIV sensor that detects nucleoproteins (NP) within 30 minutes, down to ...

Chicken parvovirus viral loads in cloacal swabs from malabsorption syndrome-affected and healthy broilers

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2016
Chicken parvovirus (ChPV) has been associated with malabsorption syndrome (MAS) in broilers. However, the participation of this virus in such syndrome is unclear, since it may be detected in diseased and healthy chickens. In the course of these studies, it was argued whether ChPV genome loads might be correlated to the occurrence of MAS.

Cloacal and buccal swabs are a reliable source of DNA for microsatellite genotyping of reptiles

Conservation Genetics, 2006
In this study, a minimally invasive method for DNA sampling of reptiles and amphibians using cloacal and buccal swabs is described. High molecular weight DNA was isolated from the swabs, which were collected from tuatara (Sphenodon punctatus), and stored in 70% ethanol at room temperature for approximately 1 week.

Diagnosis of Chlamydial Infection in Pet Birds: Comparison of Cloacal-Swab Culture and Peroxidase-Antiperoxidase Methods

Avian Diseases, 1988
Cloacal swabs were examined using a peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) method that employs a monoclonal antibody to chlamydiae. The specificity and sensitivity of cloacal-swab PAP examination and the prevalence of chlamydiosis were calculated using both culture and tissue PAP evaluation as standards.

Evaluating Buccal and Cloacal Swabs for Ease of Collection and Use in Genetic Analyses of Marine Turtles

Chelonian Conservation and Biology, 2012
Abstract Buccal and cloacal swabs have been used for genetic sampling for a variety of reptiles but not for marine turtles to date. We evaluated whether this method offers a simple and quick way to sample cells from live marine turtles in the wild when it is not feasible to obtain blood or skin.

Assessment of Salmonella spp. in feces, cloacal swabs, and eggs (eggshell and content separately) from a laying hen farm

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2011
Microbial pathogens of the genus Salmonella are among the leading causes of foodborne illness in the world. The present study was done on a laying hen farm with a Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis-positive result according to the testing specified by European regulation 2160/2003.

Salmonella enteritidis in eggs, cloacal swab specimens, and internal organs of experimentally infected White Leghorn chickens

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1996
Abstract Objective To investigate prevalence of Salmonella enteritidis-positive eggs, excretion of the organism in fecal droppings, and infection of internal organs after oral inoculation of White Leghorn hens with S enteritidis phage type 8. Animals 30 White Leghorn laying hens.

Prevalence of Ranavirus in Virginia Turtles as Detected by Tail-Clip Sampling Versus Oral-Cloacal Swabbing

Northeastern Naturalist, 2013
Ranaviruses are emerging infectious diseases that infect amphibians, fish, and reptiles. Several cases of morbidity and mortality in captive and natural populations of reptiles have been attributed to ranaviruses, but research in this taxon has been limited. We used oral-cloacal swabs and tail clips to survey two species, Chrysemys picta picta (Eastern
