temporal distribution of porcine circovirus 2 genogroups recovered from postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome affected and nonaffected farms in ireland and northern ireland. | porcine circovirus type 2 (pcv2) is now recognized as the essential infectious component of porcine postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (pmws). pmws was first recognized in high-status, specific pathogen-free pigs in canada in 1991 and is now an economically important disease that affects the swine industry around the world. recently, reports of genomic studies on pcv2 viruses indicated that 2 distinctive genogroups of pcv2 exist.4,10 this report involves the results of a study on the dis ... | 2007 | 17998555 |
isolation and characterisation of circoviruses from pigs with wasting syndromes in spain, denmark and northern ireland. | a porcine circovirus (pcv) was isolated from tissues of pigs with wasting syndromes from spain, denmark and n. ireland. the antigenic profiles of these viruses were determined by indirect immunofluorescence assays using polyclonal antisera and monoclonal antibodies (mabs) prepared against previously isolated pcvs. a rapid and convenient pcr-based test was developed and used for the genotyping of these pcv isolates. these pcv isolates were found to be antigenically and genomically similar to prev ... | 1999 | 10227473 |
