Do you know any horse owners, vets, farriers, horse dentists in Australia? If so, would you please ask them to fill out this survey? We're trying to get an estimate of how important a test for Hendra virus would be for the horse industry.

Fill | Hendra Virus Testing: Your Input for a Safer Industry Please help improve Hendra virus testing by answering this short survey. Estimated time for survey completion: 3-5 minutes.

We are excited to announce our latest publication has just been released. Here we show how to detect a prawn virus from prawn samples without needing any sophisticated equipment - only a heating block and pipettes for liquid handling.

Rapid sample preparation and low-resource molecular detection of hepatopancreatic parvoviruses (HPV) by recombinase polymerase amplification lateral flow detection assay in shrimps (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) Background Viral diseases are a major problem in shrimp aquaculture facilities as these diseases reduce growth rates, which inevitably lead to production and profit losses. Hepatopancreatic parvoviruses (HPV) are common diseases in shrimp that appear to be associated with high or low levels of repli...
