We report experimental evidence for bioconcentration of a low-pathogenicity avian influenza virus (H6N8) in the tissue of freshwater clams. Our results support the concept that freshwater clams may provide an effective tool for use in the early detection of influenza A viruses in aquatic environments.
我们报告了低致病性禽流感病毒(H6N8)在淡水蛤组织中生物富集的实验证据。我们的结果支持这样一种观点,即淡水蛤可能为在水生环境中早期检测甲型流感病毒提供一种有效的工具。
