Longitudinal study of Asian elephants, Elephas maximus, indicates intermittent shedding of elephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus 1 during pregnancy. Veterinary Record Open, 2(1), Article e000088. https://doi.org/10.1136/vetreco-2014-000088

Introduction: EEHV-1 is a viral infection of elephants that has been associated with a fatal haemorrhagic syndrome in Asian elephants. Previous studies have suggested that pregnant animals may shed more virus than non-pregnant animals. Methods: This...

Development of a DNA-based microarray for the detection of zoonotic pathogens in rodent species (2015)
Journal Article
Giles, T., Yon, L., Hannant, D., Barrow, P., & Abu-Median, A. (2015). Development of a DNA-based microarray for the detection of zoonotic pathogens in rodent species. Molecular and Cellular Probes, 29(6), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mcp.2015.07.005

The demand for diagnostic tools that allow simultaneous screening of samples for multiple pathogens is increasing because they overcome the limitations of other methods, which can only screen for a single or a few pathogens at a time. Microarrays off... Read More about Development of a DNA-based microarray for the detection of zoonotic pathogens in rodent species.
