Mink Farms Predict Aleutian Disease Exposure in Wild American Mink
BACKGROUND Infectious diseases can often be of conservation importance for wildlife. Spillover, when infectious disease is transmitted from a reservoir population to sympatric wildlife, is a particular threat. American mink (Neovison vison) populations across Canada appear to be declining, but factors thus far explored have not fully explained this population trend. Recent research has shown, h...
متن کاملAleutian Mink Disease Virus in Free-Ranging Mink from Sweden
Aleutian mink disease (AMD) is a chronic viral disease in farmed mink and the virus (AMDV) has been found in many free-ranging mink (Neovison vison) populations in Europe and North America. In this study, AMDV DNA and AMDV antibodies were analysed in 144 free-ranging mink hunted in Sweden. Associations between being AMDV infected (defined as positive for both viral DNA and antibodies) and the w...
متن کاملThe Development of a Myeloma-like Condition in Mink with Aleutian Disease.
By DAVID D. PORTER, FRANK J. DIXON AND AUSTIN E. LARSEN M ULTIPLE MYELOMA in man and the transplantable plasmacytomas in mice are the best studied malignant neoplasms of the plasma cell system. These tumors are generally associated with an increased production of one or more species of immunoglobulins.1’2 The increased globulin retains its specific qualitative characteristics throughout the cou...
متن کاملDetecting Antibodies against Aleutian Mink Disease Virus
For detection Aleutian mink disease virus (AMDV) antibodies, an ELISA was 26 developed using the recombinant VP2332-452 protein as an antigen. Counter 27 immunoelectrophoresis (CIEP) was used as a reference test to compare the results of enzyme 28 linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and western blotting (WB), the specificity and sensitivity of 29 VP2332-452-ELISA was 97.9% and 97.3%, respectivel...
متن کاملThe Pathogenesis of Aleutian Disease of Mink
Mink inoculated with 1 x 10(5)ID(50) of Aleutian disease virus revealed very high virus titers in the tissues 8-18 days later. The highest virus titers observed were 5 x 10(8)ID(50) per g of spleen and 1 x 10(9)ID(50) per g of liver 10 days after inoculation. Concomitant with the increase in infectious virus titers, viral antigen(s) was found in the cytoplasm of macrophages in the spleen and ly...
