Avian influenza overview December 2025–February 2026

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Between 29 November 2025 and 27 February 2026, 2514 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (406) and wild (2108) birds in 32 countries in Europe. Albeit still at high levels after the peak was reached at the beginning of the current reporting period, the weekly number of detections has since ...

Bee products as alternatives in the treatment of viral infections

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 33-54, 15 January 2026.
Abstract Medicines used in the treatment of viral infections usually reduce symptoms. There is a need to develop drugs that inhibit the viruses and do not merely relieve the symptoms. Natural bee products possess many pharmacological properties and are widely used in folk medicine. There are many studies on the antibacterial effects of bee products but

Effect of the alcoholic extract of the grape (Vitis Vinifera L.) and pomegranate (Punica Granatum L.) seed on the immunogenicity of the inactivated avian influenza virus subtype H9N2 in broilers

Journal of Zoonotic Diseases, 2022
Mineral oil-adjuvants remain in chicken meat and may be carcinogenic. Plant-based oils comprise different components, but they have suitable safety to use as an adjuvant. In this study, we investigated the adjuvant activity of pomegranate seed oil (PSO)

Phage‐Mediated Presentation of a Conserved HA2 Epitope From Influenza A Virus Elicits Significant IgY Antibody Responses in Broiler Chickens

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
The conserved region of HA2 peptide of Influenza A virus was expressed on the surface of Protein VIII from M13 phage. Immunization of broiler chickens by this hybrid phage showed high levels of antibody responses, highlighting its potential as a promising tool for universal vaccine development against Influenza A virus.

Chicken Infectious Anemia Virus Markedly Enhances the Pathogenicity of Infectious Bronchitis Virus–Infected Chickens

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Chicken infectious anemia virus (CIAV) and infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) represent two of the most economically significant pathogens in the global poultry production. In recent years, coinfections involving CIAV and IBV have become increasingly prevalent in clinical scenarios across Southern China and globally.

Serum Sialic Acid as a Biomarker of Inflammation and Infection: Insights From Veterinary Medicine

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Serum sialic acid (SSA) levels, including total sialic acid (TSA), lipid‐bound sialic acid (LBSA), and protein‐bound sialic acid (PBSA), have been extensively studied as biomarkers of inflammation and infection across various species and diseases. In parasitemic sheep, elevated SSA levels likely reflect host–pathogen interactions and immune activation.

Polysaccharide Adjuvants as Innate Immune Trainers: Bridging Pattern Recognition Receptor (PRR) Activation and Metabolic Reprogramming for Synthetic Vaccine Design

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 48, December 29, 2025.
Polysaccharides modulate immune responses by engaging pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to induce T‐cell activation. In vaccine design, their particle size critically influences lymph node targeting and activation mechanisms. By engineering structural complexity and multivalent PRR engagement, polysaccharides enable precise modulation of immune ...
