Comparative Neutralization Activity of Commercial Rabies Immunoglobulin against Diverse Lyssaviruses [PDF]
Vaccines, 2023 Novel lyssaviruses, the causative agents of rabies, continue to be described mostly due to increased surveillance in bat hosts. Biologicals for the prevention of rabies in humans have, however, remained largely unchanged for decades.

Discovery of a novel bat lyssavirus in a Long-fingered bat (Myotis capaccinii) from Slovenia. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2023 Lyssaviruses are the causative agents of rabies, a zoonotic, fatal disease that is thought to be ancestral to bats. In the last decade, the detection of bat associated lyssaviruses is increasing also in Europe.

Serological survey of lyssaviruses in synanthropic bats and human exposure to bats in Slovakia
Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2022 Introduction Bats are considered natural reservoirs for lyssaviruses. A total of 17 out of 19 known lyssaviruses circulate in bat populations. Lyssaviruses cause rabies in animals and humans.

Multipurpose Passive Surveillance of Bat-Borne Viruses in Hungary: Lyssaviruses and Filoviruses in Focus [PDF]
AnimalsBats are vital parts of ecosystems but also act as important reservoirs of viruses that can infect humans. Studying bat-borne viruses is essential for preventing spillover events, and passive surveillance offers a promising, bat-friendly approach.
