Utility of feline coronavirus antibody tests [PDF]

Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2014
Eight different tests for antibodies to feline coronavirus (FCoV) were evaluated for attributes that are important in situations in veterinary practice. We compared four indirect immunofluorescent antibody tests (IFAT), one enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (FCoV Immunocomb; Biogal) and three rapid immunochromatographic (RIM) tests against a ...

Treatment With Remdesivir Alone or in Combination With GS-441524 in Cats With Ocular Involvement of Feline Infectious Peritonitis: An Observational Case Series. [PDF]

J Vet Intern Med
ABSTRACT Background Remdesivir and GS‐441524 have successfully treated cats with feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) but the changes in associated signs of ocular disease are not reported. Objective Evaluate the response of FIP‐associated signs of ocular disease before and after treatment with remdesivir, GS‐441524, or both.

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*

Xenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Serotype I and II Feline Coronavirus Replication and Gene Expression Patterns of Feline Cells—Building a Better Understanding of Serotype I FIPV Biology

Viruses, 2022
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a disease of domestic cats caused by the genetic variant of the feline coronavirus (FCoV) and feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV), currently grouped into two serotypes, I and II.

Correlation of Feline Coronavirus Shedding in Feces with Coronavirus Antibody Titer [PDF]

Pathogens, 2020
Background: Feline coronavirus (FCoV) infection is ubiquitous in multi-cat households. Responsible for the continuous presence are cats that are chronically shedding a high load of FCoV. The aim of the study was to determine a possible correlation between FCoV antibody titer and frequency and load of fecal FCoV shedding in cats from catteries. Methods:

Feline infectious peritonitis: role of the feline coronavirus 3c gene in intestinal tropism and pathogenicity based upon isolates from resident and adopted shelter cats. [PDF]

, 2012
Feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) was presumed to arise from mutations in the 3c of a ubiquitous and largely nonpathogenic feline enteric coronavirus (FECV).
