Henipavirus sero-surveillance in horses and pigs from Northern Nigeria
Frontiers in Virology, 2022 Hendra virus and Nipah virus are considered to be emerging viruses and cause severe zoonotic diseases, which occur in humans who have had close contact with horses and pigs in Australia and Asia, respectively. Both viruses belong to the genus Henipavirus.

The origin and prevention of pandemics. [PDF]
, 2010 Despite the fact that most emerging diseases stem from the transmission of pathogenic agents from animals to humans, the factors that mediate this process are still ill defined.

Isolation and Full-Genome Characterization of Nipah Viruses from Bats, Bangladesh
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019 Despite molecular and serologic evidence of Nipah virus in bats from various locations, attempts to isolate live virus have been largely unsuccessful. We report isolation and full-genome characterization of 10 Nipah virus isolates from Pteropus medius ...

Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate

Ephrin-B2 expression critically influences Nipah virus infection independent of its cytoplasmic tail [PDF]
, 2008 Background Cell entry and cell-to-cell spread of the highly pathogenic Nipah virus (NiV) requires binding of the NiV G protein to cellular ephrin receptors and subsequent NiV F-mediated fusion.
