Avian Influenza; Virus Characteristics, Clinical Symptoms and Antiviral Drugs

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2022
The viruses that cause avian flu (influenza) are highly contagious and highly variable viruses commonly found in birds. Wild birds in aquatic habitats are thought to be natural reservoirs for influenza viruses, but domestic poultry and other birds can ...

Ecology of Avian Influenza Virus in Birds [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2008
Avian influenza A virus (an orthomyxovirus) is a zoonotic pathogen with a natural reservoir entirely in birds. The influenza virus genome is an 8-segment single-stranded RNA with high potential for in situ recombination. Two segments code for the hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N) antigens used for host-cell entry.

Influenza viruses in birds: rapid identification by counterimmunoelectrophoresis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1979
Counterimmunoelectrophoresis with an antiserum raised in rabbits against the M protein of the avian N virus proved to be particularly useful for large-scale identification of influenza A virus isolates. Of a total of 231 hemagglutinating agents isolated from 1,656 rectal swabs collected from shore and open-country birds, 158 could be identified as ...

Avian influenza infections in birds – a moving target [PDF]

open access: yesInfluenza and Other Respiratory Viruses, 2007
Avian influenza (AI) is a complex infection of birds, of which the ecology and epidemiology have undergone substantial changes over the last decade. Avian influenza viruses infecting poultry can be divided into two groups. The very virulent viruses cause highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), with flock mortality as high as 100%.
