Oral and Faecal Viromes of New Zealand Calves on Pasture With an Idiopathic Ill-Thrift Syndrome. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Since 2015, an idiopathic ill‐thrift syndrome featuring diarrhoea and, in some cases, gastrointestinal ulceration has been reported in weaned New Zealand dairy calves. Similar syndromes have been described in the British Isles and Australia, but investigations in New Zealand have yet to identify a specific cause. Notably, the viromes of affected calves

Syndromic surveillance and pathogen detection using multiplex assays for respiratory infections in small ruminants [PDF]

, 2018
Background Several bacterial and viruses can infect the respiratory tract of small ruminants causing similar clinical signs. The differential diagnosis of respiratory diseases in small ruminants can be achieved using multi-plex assays for an accurate ...

Immunohistochemical Evaluation of TLR‐4, HSP‐70 and Caspase‐3 Expressions in Lesional Areas of Ecthyma Disease

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
Background: Contagious ecthyma (Orf) is a highly contagious, economically significant disease affecting sheep, goats and wild small ruminants, caused by the resilient Orf virus (ORFV). It produces thick, crusted lesions around the mouth and nostrils, especially in animals aged 3–4 months, sometimes causing near 100% mortality in immunocompromised young

Infection Risk From Humans and Animals in the Anatomy Laboratory: A Scoping Review

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 346-367, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Whole‐body dissection is a cornerstone of anatomy education. During and following the COVID‐19 pandemic, exposure to infectious agents and other risks of dissection were highlighted. To identify potential risks, one must have the data outlining these risks in specific situations.

Comparison and phylogenetic analysis based on the B2L gene of orf virus from goats and sheep in China during 2009-2011 [PDF]

, 2013
As a zoonotic infectious disease, orf outbreaks have been reported in China in recent years. However, molecular epidemiology analysis has not been performed for Chinese orf virus (ORFV) strains.

Sheep-to-Human Transmission of Orf Virus during Eid al-Adha Religious Practices, France

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013
Five persons in France were infected with Orf virus after skin wounds were exposed to infected sheep tissues during Eid al-Adha, the Muslim Feast of Sacrifice. Infections were confirmed by electron microscopy, PCR, and sequence analysis.

Detection of myxoma viruses encoding a defective M135R gene from clinical cases of myxomatosis; possible implications for the role of the M135R protein as a virulence factor [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Myxoma virus is a member of the Poxviridae and causes disease in European rabbits. Laboratory confirmation of the clinical disease, which occurs in the autumn of most years in Denmark, has been achieved previously using antigen ELISA and ...

Parapoxvirus of Red Deer: Evidence for Its Inclusion as a New Member in the Genus Parapoxvirus

Virology, 1995
There are three accepted members of the parapoxvirus genus, orf virus (OV), papular stomatitis virus (PSV), and pseudocowpox virus (PCV). OV is maintained in sheep and goats and PSV and PCV in cattle. Restriction endonuclease profiles of the DNA derived from representatives of these established members of the genus were compared with profiles from a ...

Recovery of the first full-length genome sequence of a parapoxvirus directly from a clinical sample

Scientific Reports, 2017
We recovered the first full-length poxvirus genome, including the terminal hairpin region, directly from complex clinical material using a combination of second generation short read and third generation nanopore sequencing technologies.

Investigation of the complications and incidences of orf disease during and after the Feast of the Sacrifice period

Dermatologica Sinica, 2015
Background/objectives: Orf is not an endemic disease. However, it causes epidemics after the Feast of the Sacrifice in Muslim countries because it is transmitted from animals.
