在1998/1999年马来西亚半岛发生的涉及猪和人的尼帕病毒脑炎期间,最初采取了传统的方法,通过雾网和射击从果蝠身上收集标本,作为尼帕病毒天然储存宿主野生动物监测的一个组成部分。本研究描述了一种新的方法,收集果蝠的尿液样品,用塑料片分离尼帕病毒。这种新方法导致分离出除尼帕病毒外的其他几种已知和未鉴定的感染因子。(C)2003年,Elsevier SAS科学与医学版。All rights reserved.
During the outbreak of Nipah virus encephalitis involving pigs and humans in peninsular Malaysia in 1998/1999, a conventional approach was initially undertaken to collect specimens from fruit bats by mist-netting and shooting, as an integral part of wildlife surveillance of the natural reservoir host of Nipah virus. This study describes a novel method of collecting fruit bats' urine samples using plastic sheets for isolation of Nipah virus. This novel approach resulted in the isolation of several other known and unidentified infectious agents besides Nipah virus. (C) 2003 Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
