Lineage 1 has been predominantly detected in outbreaks in southwest Europe following its initial detection in France in the 1960s. (veterinary-practice.com)
Alphaviruses1
Due to the relative difficulty and risk of handling these dangerous pathogenic alphaviruses, Sindbis virus (SINV), that normally causes a mild rash and arthritis in humans but can cause fatal encephalomyelitis in mice, has been used extensively as a model system for the study of the infectivity and pathogenesis of alphaviruses. (biomedcentral.com)
Additional testing with antibody detection of specific pathogen antibodies or autoantibodies is not necessary for all patients and should be performed as directed by clinical suspicion. (amboss.com)
Avian1
In order to evaluate pathogen detection in clinical samples, C. psittaci LAMP was evaluated using a total of 26 DNA extracts from clinical samples from equine and avian hosts, while for C. pecorum LAMP, we tested a total of 63 DNA extracts from clinical samples from koala, sheep and cattle hosts.
