Serums from 1002 penguins of 4 species on Macquarie Island, a sub-antarctic island in the Southern Ocean, were examined for antibody to Newcastle disease virus (NDV), influenza A virus, avian paramyxovirus, alphavirus and flavivirus. No evidence of haemagglutination-inhibition antibody to influenza A virus or alphavirus was detected. Serums from 6% of royal penguins sampled gave positive reactions to NDV while the other 3 species were negative. Antibody to a flavivirus and an avian paramyxovirus, other than NDV, was detected in 3 of the 4 penguin species. Cloacal swabs from 831 penguins of 4 species were examined for the presence of viruses. Six isolated of paramyxovirus, other than NDV, were obtained from swabs taken from royal and king penguins at 2 widely separated sites on the island.
对南大洋亚南极岛屿麦夸里岛上4种1002只企鹅的血清进行了检测,以检测新城疫病毒(NDV)、甲型流感病毒、禽副粘病毒、甲病毒和黄病毒的抗体。未检测到针对甲型流感病毒或甲病毒的血凝抑制抗体。6%的皇家企鹅样本血清对新城疫病毒呈阳性反应,而其他3种企鹅为阴性。在4种企鹅中的3种中检测到了除新城疫病毒外的黄病毒和禽副粘病毒抗体。对4种831只企鹅的泄殖腔拭子进行了病毒检测。从该岛两个相距很远的地点采集的皇家企鹅和王企鹅的拭子中分离出6株非新城疫病毒的副粘病毒。
