Poultry farming may introduce pathogens into the environment and food chains. High concentrations of chicken/turkey parvoviruses were detected in chicken stools and slaughterhouse and downstream urban wastewaters by applying new PCR-based specific detection and quantification techniques. Our results confirm that chicken/turkey parvoviruses may be useful viral indicators of poultry fecal contamination.
家禽养殖可能会将病原体引入环境和食物链。通过应用新的基于 PCR 的特异性检测和定量技术,在鸡粪便和屠宰场以及下游城市废水中检测到高浓度的鸡/火鸡细小病毒。我们的结果证实,鸡/火鸡细小病毒可能是家禽粪便污染的有用病毒指标。
