Abstract excerpt
Aleutian mink disease parvovirus (AMDV) is a non-enveloped virus with a single-stranded DNA genome that causes a fatal, usually persistent immune complex disease in minks. In this study, a total of 18,654 serum samples were collected from minks that were farmed in China from 2009 to 2011. After testing by counter-current immunoelectrophoresis (CIE), the seroprevalence of AMDV was found to be 68.67 %. The results...
