serosurvey for selected virus infections of wild carnivores in taiwan and vietnam. | serum samples from two leopard cats (felis bengalensis) and four formosan gem-faced civets (paguma larvata taivana) in taiwan, september 1995, and nine leopard cats in vietnam, august and december 1997, were examined for the prevalence of antibodies against feline parvovirus, feline herpesvirus type 1, feline calicivirus and feline immunodeficiency virus. all civets and nine of 11 leopard cats were shown to have antibodies against feline parvovirus (fpv), and fpv's were isolated from mononuclear ... | 1999 | 10479095 |
comparison of prevalence of feline herpesvirus type 1, calicivirus and parvovirus infections in domestic and leopard cats in vietnam. | a serosurvey of feline herpesvirus type 1 (fhv-1), feline calicivirus (fcv), and feline parvovirus (fpv) in cats from ho chi minh city area in southern vietnam was conducted in december 1998, and we compared the results with our previous results in northern vietnam (hanoi area). the positive rate of fhv and fcv in domestic cats were 44% and 74%, respectively. they were rather higher than those in hanoi area, while the seropositivity of fpv (44%) was similar to that in hanoi area. in leopard cats ... | 1999 | 10651052 |
predominance of canine parvovirus (cpv) in unvaccinated cat populations and emergence of new antigenic types of cpvs in cats. | serological, sequence, and in vitro host range analyses of feline parvovirus (fpv) isolates in vietnam and taiwan revealed that more than 80% of the isolates were of the canine parvovirus (cpv) type, rather than feline panleukopenia virus (fplv). although parvovirus isolates from three vietnamese leopard cats were genetically related to cpv type 2a or 2b, they had a natural mutation of vp2 residue 300 gly to an asp, resulting in remarkable changes in their antigenic properties. these results ind ... | 2000 | 11112475 |
monoclonal antibodies that distinguish antigenic variants of canine parvovirus. | canine parvovirus (cpv) is classified as a member of the feline parvovirus (fpv) subgroup. cpv isolates are divided into three antigenic types: cpv type 2 (cpv-2), cpv-2a, and cpv-2b. recently, new antigenic types of cpv were isolated from vietnamese leopard cats and designated cpv-2c(a) or cpv-2c(b). cpv-2c viruses were distinguished from the other antigenic types of the fpv subgroup by the absence of reactivity with several monoclonal antibodies (mabs). to characterize the antigenicity of cpv- ... | 2003 | 14607871 |
global mammal parasite database version 2.0. | illuminating the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of parasites is one of the most pressing issues facing modern science, and is critical for basic science, the global economy, and human health. extremely important to this effort are data on the disease-causing organisms of wild animal hosts (including viruses, bacteria, protozoa, helminths, arthropods, and fungi). here we present an updated version of the global mammal parasite database, a database of the parasites of wild ungulates (artioda ... | 2017 | 28273333 |
