  • During the outbreak, more than 200 people were infected with HIV and over 90% were co-infected with hepatitis C. By combining AMD technology with traditional on-the-ground epidemiology and laboratory tools, CDC determined that the outbreak was limited to one county, enabling public health officials to focus limited resources among people at greatest risk and most in need of testing and treatment services. (cdc.gov)
  • Through AMD investments, CDC hepatitis experts developed a custom NGS approach for sequencing hepatitis C virus (HCV) and launched the Global Hepatitis Outbreak and Surveillance Technology (GHOST). (cdc.gov)
Variants1
  • The current variants show that the virus is doing its best to make itself more suitable to ongoing circulation within the human population. (bvsalud.org)
Genotypes1
Proteins1
  • These results show the usefulness of the recombinant envelope domain III as an alternative to standard whole virus proteins for ZIKV diagnostics as it improves the sensitivity and specificity of IgG ELISA assay when used as an immunogen. (bvsalud.org)
Infectious Diseases1
  • VBI Vaccines is a biotechnology enterprise developing vaccines invoking the immune system to treat and prevent disease, including cancer and hepatitis-B as well as infectious diseases. (technewslit.com)
Enteric2
Reverse transcription2
  • Hepatitis B viruses: reverse transcription a different way. (ictv.global)
  • Reverse transcription is accomplished using the enzyme reverse transcriptase, which the virus carries with it inside its shell. (msdmanuals.com)
Human7
  • But Hepatitis C virus itself affects only human beings and chimpanzees. (allaboutheaven.org)
  • Group A rotaviruses in Chinese bats: genetic composition, serology and evidence for bat-to-human transmission and reassortment. (cdc.gov)
  • The researchers concluded that the virus causing the current havoc across the planet is 1000 times more capable of latching on to human ACE 2. (deepaknatarajan.com)
  • Subsequently, a related human virus was identified [named GBV-C or hepatitis G virus (HGV)], and recently a more distantly related virus (named GBV-D) was discovered in bats. (ox.ac.uk)
  • The team plans to repeat the experiments with other viral samples to get a better grasp of what animal-borne viruses pose a risk to human health. (id-ea.org)
  • Outside the human body, the virus is destroyed by household soap, which bursts its protective bubble. (faith.org.uk)
  • Examples of retroviruses are the human immunodeficiency viruses and the human T-cell leukemia viruses. (msdmanuals.com)
SARS5
  • In this article we compile data about the basic properties of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and about how it interacts with the body ( Figure 1 ). (elifesciences.org)
  • CoV-2 is a close relative of SARS and MERS, with bats as its primary reservoir. (starshipnivan.com)
  • The small re-emergence of SARS in late 2003 after the resumption of the wildlife market in southern China and the recent discovery of a very similar virus in horseshoe bats, bat SARS-CoV, suggested that SARS can return if conditions are fit for the introduction, mutation, amplification, and transmission of this dangerous virus . (argumentful.com)
  • SARS-Cov-2 shares a high sequence identity (around 80%) with SARS- CoV and a 96.2% sequence identity with BatCoV RaTG13, a bat CoV [ 5 ]. (ijbs.com)
  • We also discuss the first published works on the use of the method for the detection of the nucleic acid of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, including those being developed in the Russian Federation. (crie.ru)
Serology1
  • However, current serology tests using whole virus antigens frequently suffer from cross reactivity issues, delays, and technical complexity, especially in low and middle income countries (LMICs) and endemic countries. (bvsalud.org)
Horseshoe bat2
  • Conclusions: This is the first study to report that the Chinese horseshoe bat and the Chinese whiskered bat have been found to carry novel hepadnaviruses and a novel hepevirus, respectively. (rki.de)
  • The natural host is the Chinese horseshoe bat, RHINOLOPHUS sinicus. (bvsalud.org)
Myotis1
  • The hepadnaviruses were discovered in the horseshoe bats, Rhinolophus sinicus and Rhinolophus affinis, and the hepevirus was found in the whiskered bat Myotis davidii. (rki.de)
Pathogen1
  • The company's technology is based on virus-like particles, components of viruses designed to generate immune responses against pathogen targets, but not enough to cause the disease itself. (technewslit.com)
