Background:H5N1 Avian Influenza virus is expected to continue to mutate, potentially increasing the capacity to jump the species barrier, and can be easily transmitted between humans. This study aimed to analyze the genetic dynamics of the NS1 gene and to recognize markers of virulence in VAI H5N1 NS1 gene sequences from Balinese poultry. Methods:The method used was isolation of RNA, NS1 gen…
Background: Avian influenza is an important viral disease caused by RNA viruses from the Orthomyxoviridae family. The virus is highly contagious, and transmission of the virus to humans resulted in fatal disease. Caprylic acid, a natural fatty acid, and its other chemical forms, namely sodium caprylate and monocaprylin, are highly effective in killing a variety of disease causing bacteria and …
