A retrospective study of factors associated with newcastle disease outbreaks in village indigenous chickens
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
The objective of this study, therefore, was to determine the risk factors associated with
occurrence of Newcastle disease in village indigenous chickens. The study was carried out in five agro –ecological zones and seventy ...
Effect of Immunosuppression on Newcastle Disease Virus Persistence in Ducks with Different Immune Status
(ISRN Veterinary Science, 2012)
This study was carried out to verify the possibility that ducks are sources of Newcastle disease (ND) virus infection for chickens in mixed flocks. Immunosuppressed (IS) and non immunosuppressed (NIS) birds, at three ...
Prevalence of Newcastle disease virus in village indigenous chickens in varied agro-ecological zones in Kenya
(2010)
It was hypothesized that the agro-ecological zone in which village indigenous chickens were farmed
influenced the level of diseases occurrence. One hundred and forty four apparently healthy chickens
(71 from lower highland ...
Time-course investigation of infection with a low virulent Pasteurella multocida strain in normal and immune-suppressed 12-week-old free-range chickens
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-11)
Twelve-week-old indigenous chickens, either immune-suppressed using dexamethasone (IS) or non-immunesuppressed (NIS), were challenged with a low virulent strain, Pasteurella multocida strain NCTC 10322T, and developed ...

This study was carried out to verify the possibility that ducks are sources of Newcastle disease (ND) virus infection for chickens in mixed flocks. Immunosuppressed (IS) and non immunosuppressed (NIS) birds, at three ...
Viral nucleoprotein localization and lesions of Newcastle disease in tissues of indigenous ducks
(2011-08)
Localization of Newcastle disease viral nucleoprotein and pathological lesions was valuated in tissues of 55 indigenous ducks (45 experimentally infected and 10 sentinel
ones). In addition, ten Newcastle disease infected ...
