Chlamydia avium‐associated hepatitis in a fancy pigeon (Columba livia f. domestica)
Abstract A 5‐year‐old, male, fancy pigeon (Columba livia f. domestica, 380 g), found dead without prior clinical signs, was submitted for diagnostic postmortem examination. Histologically, the animal exhibited heterophilic to mononuclear hepatitis consistent with avian chlamydiosis; however, Chlamydia psittaci‐specific real‐time polymerase chain ...

Reassortment of Human Rotavirus Gene Segments into G11 Rotavirus Strains
G11 rotaviruses are believed to be of porcine origin. However, a limited number of G11 rotaviruses have been recently isolated from humans in combination with P[25], P[8], P[6], and P[4]. To investigate the evolutionary relationships of these strains, we

Expanding Global Distribution of Rotavirus Serotype G9: Detection in Libya, Kenya, and Cuba
Serotype G9 may be the fifth most common human rotavirus serotype, after serotypes G1 to G4. In three cross-sectional studies of childhood diarrhea, we have detected serotype G9 rotaviruses for the first time in Libya, Kenya, and Cuba.

A comparison study of efficacy of food sanitizers with fresh leafy vegetables with different surface properties and analysis of the rotavirus replication cycle after inactivation by food sanitizers [PDF]
Foodborne illness is a serious concern in the United States. Fresh produce is recognized as a vehicle of food borne illness pathogens including viruses. To prevent causes of foodborne illness, the use of sanitizers is essential for fresh produce. However,

Trends and measurement of HIV prevalence in northern Malawi.
BACKGROUND: Most data on HIV prevalence in Malawi come from antenatal clinic (ANC) surveillance and are, therefore, subject to bias. OBJECTIVES: HIV prevalence and risk factors were measured using population-based data to assess the accuracy of ANC ...

Inaccurate identification of rotavirus genotype G9 as genotype G3 strains due to primer mismatch
Reverse transcription (RT)-PCR is now the standard method for typing group A rotaviruses (RVA) to monitor the circulating genotypes in a population. Selection of primers that can accurately type the circulating genotypes is crucial in the context of ...

Oral immunization with pBsVP6-transgenic alfalfa protects mice against rotavirus infection [PDF]
A critical factor in edible plant-derived vaccine development is adequate expression of the exogenous antigens in transgenic plants. We synthesized a codon-optimized gene (sVP6) encoding the VP6 protein of human group A rotavirus and inserted it into the
