Analysis of samples (cloaca, blood and tissue) from Adelie penguins and Weddell seal samples for influenze viruses from Cape Bird
Entry ID:
K251_1985_1986_NZ_1
Summary
Abstract:
There is evidence that some influenza pandemics are caused by influenza viruses which have acquired new antigens from avian viruses. In order to understand the conditions under which antigens are transferred between animals and human strains of influenza viruses it is necessary to study the ecology of animal influenza viruses. Antibodies to influenza virus found in Adelie penguins at Casey Station ...
