In Kazakhstan, foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) outbreaks were recorded in 2011–2013 the southern and eastern regions where FMD vaccination is place. January 2022, Kiikty village of Shetsky district, Karaganda Region, Republic cases among cattle clinically similar to reported. The aim research was establish cause perform typing pathogen. Materials methods . Samples from sick animals tested using PC...

In July 1991, an outbreak of foot and mouth disease (FMD) occurred near Stefan Karadjovo village in Boliarovo (south-east Bulgaria, close to the Turkish border). The virus isolated was identified in Bulgaria as serotype O and this was subsequently confirmed by the World Reference Laboratory for Foot and Mouth Disease in Pirbright (United Kingdom). Serological studies using bovine sera and monoc...

In Zambia, foot and mouth disease (FMD) has been caused by all three of the South African Territories serotypes (SAT 1, 2 and 3) and by European types O and A. Three areas of the country which have experienced repeated occurrences of the disease are considered high-risk areas. The three areas are as follows: the southern border area between Zambia and Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia, the Kafue F...

Experimental studies of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) in feral swine are limited, and data for clinical manifestations and disease transmissibility are lacking. In this report, feral and domestic swine were experimentally infected with FMDV (A24-Cruzeiro), and susceptibility and virus transmission were studied. Feral swine were proved to be highly susceptible to A-24 Cruzeiro FMD virus by intrad...

successful disease management requires a rapid and sensitive diagnosis method that can recognize early infection even before the manifestation of its clinical signs. the only available field diagnostic tests for foot-and-mouth disease (fmd) are lateral flow devices, commonly known as chromatographic strips. low sensitivity and inability to detect fmd virus (fmdv) at the serotype level are limit...

Binding of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) to cells requires an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence in the capsid protein VP1. We have genetically engineered an FMDV in which these three amino acids have been deleted, producing a virus particle which is unable to bind to cells. Cattle vaccinated with these receptor binding site-deleted virions were protected from disease when chal...

The foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) afflicts livestock in more than 80 countries, limiting food production and global trade. Production of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccines requires cytosolic expression of the FMDV 3C protease to cleave the P1 polyprotein into mature capsid proteins, but the FMDV 3C protease is toxic to host cells. To identify less-toxic isoforms of the FMDV 3C protease...

Specifically-designed questionnaires were distributed to the managers and/or veterinarians of all dairy farms in Saudi Arabia in order to obtain data on the occurrence of foot and mouth disease (FMD) on these farms from 1971 to 1989, as well as data on current control measures. Of 39 farms, 27 responded to the questionnaire and 15 (56%) reported FMD outbreaks. Notification and collection of sam...

SAT 2 is the serotype most often associated with outbreaks of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) in livestock in southern and western Africa and is the only SAT type to have been recorded outside the African continent in the last decade. Its epidemiology is complicated by the presence of African buffalo (Syncerus caffer), which play an important role in virus maintenance and transmission. To assess t...

Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is an acute infectious disease that attacks livestock, thus threatening the availability of food husbandry industry. This paper discusses formulation a mathematical model for spread FMD in livestock with saturated incidence rate. The research method used quantitative modeling simulation, stages including problem identification, determining assumptions, formulation, ...
