Infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) cause mild to severe respiratory disease in chickens, the purpose of our study being to use Brazilian isolate of ILTV to reproduce ILTV disease in chickens by experimental infection and to compare three diagnostic methods (nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR), virus isolation, histopathology) for detection of ILTV. Forty-eight chickens intratracheally inoculated with ILTV and a further 48 with PBS, showing mild respiratory signs 48 hours post infection (PI) but no signs of infection after day 10 PI. Every 2 days PI, six birds were arbitrarily selected from the control and infected groups, sacrificed and the trachea collected. Both the nested PCR and virus isolation detected the virus from day 2 until day 12 PI.... |

The large amounts of feathers produced by the poultry industry, that is considered as a waste was explored for possible uses in various industries, such as meals for animals, biofuels, biodegradable plastic materials, combating water pollution and more. That review mentions these uses, but concentrate on the utilization of feathers for the diagnosis of viral infections and for monitoring vaccine viruses in chickens after vaccination. The viral diseases in which diagnosis using nucleic acids extracted from the feather shafts was described are, Marek's disease virus, circoviruses, chicken anemia virus, fowlpox virus, avian retroviruses, avian influenza virus and infectious laryngotracheitis virus. In two cases, of Marek's disease virus and of infectious... |
