The ecology of ebolaviruses is still poorly understood and the role bats in outbreaks needs to be further clarified. Straw-colored fruit (
The wildlife reservoir and spillover mechanisms of the Ebola virus remain elusive despite extensive research efforts in endemic areas. This study employed a One Health approach to examine circulation associated human exposure risks Tshuapa province Democratic Republic Congo. In 2021, we collected 1015 samples from 888 animals, predominantly small mammals, 380 inhabitants Inkanamongo village, site an disease outbreak 2014. These were screened for evidence current (RNA) or past (IgG...
The seroprevalence to orthoebolaviruses was studied in 9594 bats (5972 frugivorous and 3622 insectivorous) from Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) Guinea, with a Luminex-based serological assay including recombinant antigens four orthoebolavirus species. Seroprevalence is expressed as range according different cut-off calculations. Between 6.1% 18.9% bat samples reacted at least one antigen; highest reactivity seen Glycoprotein (GP) antigens. varied per species higher than...
Abstract We investigated factors which might influence the circulation of ebolaviruses in fruit bats Guinea order to better understand their role ecology and evaluate risks spill-over other animals or humans. performed serological tests on populations 4 bat species ( Eidolon helvum , Hypsignathus monstrosus Lissonycteris angolensis Rousettus aegyptiacus ) sampled longitudinally for 18 months (2018-2020). The analysis 1,427 samples antibodies directed against different ebolavirus allowed test...
