Molecular Evidence of Human T‑Cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 Transmission by Needlestick Injury in Healthcare Workers. [PDF]

J Med Virol
ABSTRACT Human T‑cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV‑1) is a retrovirus that spreads primarily through cell‐to‐cell transmission. Occupational transmission of HTLV‐1 by needlestick injury is considered exceedingly rare, with no reported molecularly confirmed cases.

Experiences from Two Decades of HTLV-1/2 Testing in a Low-Prevalence Area in Southern Germany, 2004 to 2024 [PDF]

Viruses
Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a neglected pathogen with a heterogeneous global distribution. In low-prevalence areas, diagnostic testing is challenged by limited clinical awareness and the low positive predictive value of screening ...

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 ...
