Circovirus inclusion bodies in intestinal muscle cells of a canary

Molecular survey of avian circoviruses in some non-psittacine birds and detection of a novel canary circovirus in a pigeon

Background: Circoviruses are small, non-enveloped, single stranded DNA viruses. There is scarce information about these agents in non-psittacine birds. Aims: It is attempted to detect and characterize circoviruses in non-psittacine birds. Methods: Forty-five samples were collected from different non-psittacine species belonging to seven avian o...

Observation of Inclusion Bodies in Renal Epithelial Cells of Experimelltally Infected Horses with African Horse-Sickness Virus

Inclusion bodies in trachoma.

THE epithelial-cell inclusion, which is characteristically found in the early stages of trachoma was first described by Halberstaedter and Prowazek (1907). Since that time, a considerable literature concerning the nature of these bodies has accumulated. It is generally conceded that they consist of virus particles together with material elaborated by the virus and/or produced by the parasitized...

Inclusion bodies: a new concept

In the last decades, the understanding of inclusion body biology and consequently, of their properties and potential biotechnological applications have dramatically changed. Therefore, the development of new purification protocols aimed to preserve those properties is becoming a pushing demand.

Isolation of biologically active nanomaterial (inclusion bodies) from bacterial cells

BACKGROUND In recent years bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) were recognised as highly pure deposits of active proteins inside bacterial cells. Such active nanoparticles are very interesting for further downstream protein isolation, as well as for many other applications in nanomedicine, cosmetic, chemical and pharmaceutical industry.To prepare large quantities of a high quality product, the who...
