| susceptibility of openbill storks (anastomius oscitans) to highly pathogenic avian influenza virus subtype h5n1. | this investigation detailed the clinical disease, gross and histologic lesions in juvenile openbill storks (anastomus oscitans) intranasally inoculated with an avian influenza virus, a/chicken/thailand/vsmu-3 (h5n1), which is highly pathogenic for chickens. high morbidity and mortality were observed in openbill storks inoculated with hpai h5n1 virus. gross lesions from infected birds were congestion and brain hemorrhage (10/20), pericardial effusions, pericarditis and focal necrosis of the cardi ... | 2013 | 24437315 |
| satellite telemetry tracks flyways of asian openbill storks in relation to h5n1 avian influenza spread and ecological change. | asian openbills, anastomus oscitans, have long been known to migrate from south to southeast asia for breeding and nesting. in thailand, the first outbreak of h5n1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (hpai) infection in the openbills coincided with the outbreak in the poultry. therefore, the flyways of asian openbills was determined to study their role in the spread of h5n1 hpai virus to poultry and wild birds, and also within their flocks. | 2018 | 30445946 |
| a long-term serosurvey of avian influenza h5 among wild birds in nakhon sawan province, thailand. | an outbreak of hpaiv h5n1 in nakhon sawan province, thailand, in 2004 caused sporadic deaths of asian openbill storks ( anastomus oscitans). an investigation was undertaken to determine if this virus occurs and circulates in wild birds in nakhon sawan province. following the outbreak, a widespread serosurvey was conducted using the hemagglutination inhibition assay and microneutralization assay to detect antibodies against aiv h5. from 2007 to 2014, blood was collected from a total of 753 wild b ... | 2018 | 29900780 |
