Souza,Thiago Sampaio de; Pinheiro,Raymundo Rizaldo; Lima,Carla Caroline Valença de; Brito,Roberta Lomonte Lemos de; Azevedo,Dalva Alana Aragão deSUMMARY The objective of this study was to demonstrate iatrogenic transmission of small ruminant lentivirus (SRLV) from goats to sheep and horizontal transmission between sheep. The study was conducted on a farm with separate goat and sheep rearing, and animals were monitored for lentivirus occurrence by clinical examination and testing by immunoblotting (IB), agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID), and nested polymer...
Evaluation of caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus transmission in newborn goat...
Rodrigues,Apoliana de Sousa; Pinheiro,Raymundo Rizaldo; Brito,Roberta Lomonte Lemos de; Oliveira,Leandro Silva; Oliveira,Eduardo Luiz deABSTRACT: Caprine arthritis encephalitis causes considerable losses in goat production. The main form of the caprine arthritis encephalitis virus transmission is through the ingestion of colostrum or milk from infected females. However, some transmissions cannot be explained in this manner. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate transplacental transmission of caprine arthritis encephalitis virus. Blood samples...
Medium-term cryopreservation of rabies virus samples
Aguiar,Tereza D'avila de Freitas; Teixeira,Maria Fatima da Silva; Costa,Edmara Chaves; Vitaliano,Allan Bezerra; Teles,Carlos Henrique de AndradeIntroduction The cryopreservation of rabies virus has been described in detail in the literature. To date, little information is available on the use of cryoprotective agents for cold preservation of this virus, and the available data focus only on short-term virus preservation. In this study, we investigated the medium-term cryopreservation of samples of rabies virus using different cryopreservation protocols....
