Silver nanoparticles impair Peste des petits ruminants virus replication

Virus Research, 2014
In the present study, we evaluated the antiviral efficacy of the silver nanoparticles (SNPs) against Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV), a prototype Morbillivirus. The leaf extract of the Argemone maxicana was used as a reducing agent for biological synthesis of the SNPs from silver nitrate.

Molecular Detection and Seroprevalence Study of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus in Small Ruminants in Central Ethiopia. [PDF]

Vet Med Int
Background Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is a severe, highly contagious, and fatal viral disease of small ruminants that causes significant production losses and mortality in Ethiopia. A cross‐sectional study was conducted from December 2021 to July 2022 to determine the seroprevalence of the disease in the study area.
