Detection and Serological Evidence of European Bat Lyssavirus 1 in Belgian Bats between 2016 and 2018
Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, Volume 9, Issue 7 (2024) Keywords: European bat lyssavirus PCR Rabies serology Surveillance Abstract: Lyssaviruses are neurotropic viruses capable of inducing fatal ...
Personal characteristics and transmission dynamics associated with SARS-CoV-2 semi-quantitative PCR test results: an observational study from Belgium, 2021-2022.
PCR test (SQ- PCR) results, used as a proxy for viral load, were routinely collected after performing RT-qPCR tests. METHODS: We investigated both the personal characteristics associated with SQ- PCR ...

RNA sequencing of avian paramyxovirus (Paramyxoviridae, Avulavirinae) isolates from wild mallards in Belgium, 2021: complete genomes and coinfections.
influenza virus (AIV) coinfection in all three virus isolates, confirming weak-positive AIV realtime RT- PCR results from the original sample material. In one AOAV-1 isolate, partial sequences covering all ...
Hepatitis E virus in pork meat products and exposure assessment in Belgium.
HEV RNA by RT- PCR. In total, 31 % (n = 17) products tested positive. HEV RNA was found in 65 % of the pork liver pâtés, 15 % of raw dried hams and 0 % of raw dried sausages. Phylogenetic analysis of ...
Development of Digital Droplet PCR Targeting the Influenza H3N2 Oseltamivir-Resistant E119V Mutation and Its Performance through the Use of Reverse Genetics Mutants.
existing reverse transcriptase real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) assay, we developed a reverse transcriptase droplet digital PCR assay (RT-ddPCR) to detect and quantify the frequency of the E119V- NA mutation. ...
Hepatitis of unknown aetiology in children- epidemiological overview of cases reported in Europe, 1 January to 16 June 2022.
had a positive test for adenovirus, 10.4% had a positive RT- PCR for SARS-CoV-2 and 10.3% were coinfected with both pathogens. Cases with adenovirus infections were significantly more likely to be ...
Redesign and Validation of a Real-Time RT-PCR to Improve Surveillance for Avian Influenza Viruses of the H9 Subtype.
real-time RT- PCR was also evaluated in comparison to existing H9-detection methods, highlighting a significant improvement of sensitivity and inclusivity, in particular for G1 viruses. Data obtained suggest ...
Pre-vaccination SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence among staff and residents of nursing homes in Flanders (Belgium) in fall 2020
Flanders, Belgium. Sociodemographic and medical data [including coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptoms and results of RT- PCR tests] were retrieved using questionnaires. The overall seroprevalence was ...
