TL;DR: In this article, the presence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) in testis was assessed in 12 experimentally HEV-genotype 3-infected pigs, and the male reproductive system was shown to be a niche of HEV persistence in chronic HEV infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interlaboratory Validation of a Method for Hepatitis E Virus RNA Detection in Meat and Meat Products.

TL;DR: A detailed protocol for detection of HEV RNA in meat products is provided, which is based on the method originally described by Szabo et al. and indicates sufficient sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the method for its broad future use in survey studies, routine food control or outbreak investigations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimated exposure to hepatitis E virus through consumption of swine liver and liver sausages
TL;DR: The high prevalence of antibodies in swine support the evidence that these animals can act as reservoirs for HEV and can contribute epidemiologically to the maintenance of the virus in the surroundings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential of avian and mammalian species A rotaviruses to reassort as explored by plasmid only-based reverse genetics.
TL;DR: The results indicate that the VP3 and VP4 genes, but not the other genes of avian RVA, can functionally substitute their mammalian homologs and create viable reassortants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability of hepatitis E virus at high hydrostatic pressure processing
TL;DR: HPP treatment can reduce HEV infectivity, which is mainly dependent on pressure height and duration of the HPP treatment, and predictive models for inactivation of HEV by HPP were generated.
