Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine if Puerto Rican bats had previous exposure to rabies virus based on viral neutralizing antibodies. Our results demonstrate that 6.5% of the bats in this study had some exposure to rabies virus. The route of exposure is unknown but may have occurred following interaction with a rabid terrestrial animal or an unidentified bat rabies virus.

波多黎各海绵状短叶果狂犬病毒中和抗体的检测。

本研究的目的是根据病毒中和抗体确定波多黎各蝙蝠以前是否接触过狂犬病病毒。我们的研究结果表明，本研究中6.5%的蝙蝠有一定程度的狂犬病病毒暴露。接触途径尚不清楚，但可能是在与患有狂犬病的陆生动物或不明蝙蝠狂犬病病毒相互作用后发生的。

期刊介绍： Infection Ecology & Epidemiology aims to stimulate inter-disciplinary collaborations dealing with a range of subjects, from the plethora of zoonotic infections in humans, over diseases with implication in wildlife ecology, to advanced virology and bacteriology. The journal specifically welcomes papers from studies where researchers from multiple medical and ecological disciplines are collaborating so as to increase our knowledge of the emergence, spread and effect of new and re-emerged infectious diseases in humans, domestic animals and wildlife. Main areas of interest include, but are not limited to: 1.Zoonotic microbioorganisms 2.Vector borne infections 3.Gastrointestinal pathogens 4.Antimicrobial resistance 5.Zoonotic microbioorganisms in changing environment
