| pathogen exposure and blood chemistry in the washington, usa population of northern sea otters (enhydra lutris kenyoni). | northern sea otters (enhydra lutris kenyoni) from washington state, united states were evaluated in 2011 to determine health status and pathogen exposure. antibodies to brucella spp. (10%) and influenza a virus (23%) were detected for the first time in this population in 2011. changes in clinical pathology values (serum chemistries), exposure to pathogens, and overall health of the population over the last decade were assessed by comparing 2011 data to the data collected on this population in 20 ... | 2013 | 24502716 |

| serologic detection of subtype-specific antibodies to influenza a viruses in southern sea otters (enhydra lutris nereis). | there are approximately 3,000 southern sea otters (enhydra lutris nereis) in the nearshore environment along the california coast, and the species is classified as threatened under the endangered species act. we tested sera from 661 necropsied southern sea otters sampled from 1997 to 2015 to determine overall exposure to influenza a viruses (iavs) and to identify subtype-specific antibody responses. using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa), antibodies to iav nucleoproteins were detecte ... | 2017 | 28513329 |
