Feline Infectious Peritonitis: A Challenging Diagnostic and Therapeutic Labyrinth [PDF]
Feline coronaviruses (FCoVs) are ubiquitous pathogens, exhibiting high prevalence across feline populations worldwide. Although the virulent mutated biotype feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) is observed in only a small percentage of cats, it ...
