This document contains results from several RT-PCR tests performed on avian samples, including hemagglutination assays to detect avian influenza virus (AIV), RT-PCR tests targeting the AIV matrix, HA, and NA genes to identify subtypes, and RT-PCR for the Newcastle disease virus (NDV) F gene. Gel electrophoresis images show amplification products of the expected sizes for AIV and NDV genes. Tests were also able to distinguish AIV positive and negative samples, as well as AIV and NDV co-infected samples treated with NDV antiserum.
