A European survey of antimicrobial susceptibility among zoonotic and commensal bacteria isolated from food-producing animals Bywater et al., EASSA Study Group The potential for transfer of antimicrobial resistance from enteric zoonotic bacteria of food animals to the human population is a cause of concern. Programmes to monitor resistance are, therefore, essential.
A variable region in GP4 of a European type PRRSV syndrome M. Vanhee et al., Ghent University Scientific article. A variable region in GP4 of a European type PRRSV syndrome induces neutralizing antibodies against homologous but not heterologous virus stains.
Diagnosis of PRRSV and infection. Diaz et al., Barcelona Autonomous University Comparison of two commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.
DNA-based Molecular Diagnostic Techniques: Research Needs for Standardization and Validation of the Detection of Aquatic Animal Pathogens and Diseases, Issue 395 (Google e-book) Peter Walker, Rohana P. Subasinghe, FAO In efforts to limit transboundary movement of pathogens and reduce the economic and socioeconomic impact of disease in aquaculture, there is considerable scope for more effective use of DNA-based methods of pathogen detection.
Emerging Zoonoses Frederick A. Murphy, University of California Special Issue on Zoonoses. In the past few years, emergent disease episodes have increased; nearly all have involved zoonotic or species-jumping infectious agents.
FAO Reference Laboratories List of FAO Reference Laboratories and Collaborating Centres relevant to emergency animal diseases.
Foresight Infectious Diseases China Project A Nicoll et al., Foresight China Project Group A novel approach to anticipating future trends in risk of infectious diseases in China: methodology and results from initial application.
Global perspective for foot and mouth disease control M.M. Rweyemamu, V.M. Astudillo The world distribution of foot and mouth disease (FMD) is almost a mirror image of the global economic structure. The authors conclude that there is sufficient knowledge of FMD to make an international initiative for the progressive control of FMD a viable objective
Inactivated virus vaccines from chemistry to prophylaxis Delrue et al., Ghent University Merits, risks and challenges.
Laboratory surveillance for prevention and control of foodborne zoonoses Busani et al., Dipartimento di Sanità Alimentare ed Animale Enter-Net is an example of an international laboratory based surveillance network which contribute largely to European foodborne zoonosis surveillance.
List of publications produced within PoRRSCon project PoRRSCon is an initiative of 15 partners from EU and Asia with strong expertise in virology and immunology.

Pathogenesis and antigenic characterization of a new East European sub type 3 PRRSV isolate U, Karniychuk et al., BioMed Central Observation on clinical and virological differences between the animals inoculated with a recent European subtype 1 PRRSV isolate and animals inoculated with PRRSV (Lena).
Porcine Circovirus Type 2 Viremia and Seroconversion in pigs K. Podgorska, T. Stadejek, National Veterinary Research Institute, Poland Porcine Circovirus Type 2 Viremia and Seroconversion in pigs from a farm affected by postweaning multisystematic wasting syndrome. Peer reviewed study.
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome OIE Reference Laboratory Reports. Activities in 2011
Probable Person-to-Person Transmission of Avian Influenza A (H5N1) Kumnuan Ungchusa et al. During 2004, a highly pathogenic avian influenza A (H5N1) virus caused poultry disease in eight Asian countries and infected at least 44 persons, killing 32. The authors investigated possible person-to-person transmission in a family cluster of the disease in Thailand.
PRRSV entry into the porcine macrophage Van Breedam et al., Ghent University Scientific article. PRRSV emerged in the 1980s and quickly became one of the most significant viral pathogens in swine industry.
Reverse Genetics-based approaches to attenuate PRVVS virus Yanyan Ni, Virginian Polytechnic Institute and State University Doctoral Dissertation.
Rinderpest and Peste des Petits Ruminants: Virus Plagues of Large and Small Ruminants (Google eBook) William P. Taylor Rinderpest and Peste des Petits Ruminants tells the story of how, by the year 2010, scientists are set to globally eradicate one of the great historic plagues that has ravaged human livestock for centuries.
