Livestock-associated MRSA ST398 carriage in pig slaughterhouse workers related to quantitative environmental exposureMaarten J Gilbert
Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences, Utrecht University, PO Box 80178, 3508 TD Utrecht, The Netherlands
Occup Environ Med 69:472-8. 2012..To assess livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA) carriage among workers in pig slaughterhouses and assess associated risk factors, including occupational exposure to LA-MRSA...
Livestock-associated MRSA prevalence in veal calf production is associated with farm hygiene, use of antimicrobials, and age of the calvesMarian E H Bos
Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences, Division of Environmental Epidemiology, Utrecht University, P O Box 80178, 3508 TD Utrecht, The Netherlands
Prev Vet Med 105:155-9. 2012..Other age-related factors may be more influential. However, taken together these findings emphasize the need for prudent use of antimicrobials, and point to improvement of farm hygiene as a control measure...
Effect of H7N1 vaccination on highly pathogenic avian influenza H7N7 virus transmission in turkeysMarian E H Bos
Department of Farm Animal Health, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University, Yalelaan 7, 3584 CL Utrecht, The Netherlands
Vaccine 26:6322-8. 2008..26 per infectious bird per day. However, no virus shedding was found in inoculated vaccinated turkeys and thus we concluded that vaccination with H7N1 protected against challenge with HPAI H7N7 virus...
Back-calculation method shows that within-flock transmission of highly pathogenic avian influenza (H7N7) virus in the Netherlands is not influenced by housing risk factorsMarian E H Bos
Department of Farm Animal Health, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University, Yalelaan 7, 3584 CL Utrecht, The Netherlands
Prev Vet Med 88:278-85. 2009..In contrast to general belief, none of the studied risk factors (housing system, flock size, species, age of the birds in weeks and date of depopulation) had significant influence on the estimated beta...
High probability of avian influenza virus (H7N7) transmission from poultry to humans active in disease control on infected farmsMarian E H Bos
Department of Farm Animal Health, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands
J Infect Dis 201:1390-6. 2010..0%; 95% CI, 0.0%-1.0%) and cleaning assistance during depopulation (0.0%; 95% CI, 0.0%-9.2%). No significant association was observed between the probability of infection and the exposure variables...
Within-flock transmission of H7N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus in turkeys during the Italian epidemic in 1999-2000Marian E H Bos
Department of Farm Animal Health, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University, Yalelaan 7, 3584 CL, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Prev Vet Med 95:297-300. 2010..The estimated beta for HPAI H7N1 virus transmission in turkeys was 1.43 (95% CI: 1.17-1.74). Farm risk factors such as flock size and age of the turkeys did not influence the estimated transmission rate parameter...
Estimating the day of highly pathogenic avian influenza (H7N7) virus introduction into a poultry flock based on mortality dataMarian E H Bos
Department of Farm Animal Health, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Vet Res 38:493-504. 2007..The implications of the model outcomes for detecting and tracing outbreaks of H7N7 HPAI virus are discussed...
Effectiveness of personal protective equipment and oseltamivir prophylaxis during avian influenza A (H7N7) epidemic, the Netherlands, 2003Dennis E Te Beest
Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Emerg Infect Dis 16:1562-8. 2010..No significant protective effect was found for use of respirators or safety glasses, possibly because of limitations of the data...
Dynamics of MRSA carriage in veal calves: a longitudinal field studyHaitske Graveland
Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences, Division of Environmental Epidemiology, Utrecht University, P O Box 80178, 3508 TD Utrecht, The Netherlands
Prev Vet Med 107:180-6. 2012..MRSA in calves was present both nasally and rectally. The reproducibility and repeatability of the nasal samples were moderate. The results of this study give a better understanding of the dynamics of MRSA in a field situation...
