Avian hepatitis E virus (HEV) has been identified in chickens; however, only 4 complete or near-complete genomic sequences have been reported. We found that the near-complete genomic sequence of avian HEV in chickens from China shared the highest identity (98.3%) with avian HEV from Europe and belonged to avian HEV genotype 3.

- Two stable hybridoma cell lines were created that produce IgG1 monoclonal antibodies against goat IL-18.
- The antibodies, named 2E8 and 4C4, showed specific binding to goat IL-18 in assays like ELISA and Western blot, indicating they target different parts of the protein.
- These antibodies were effective in detecting goat IL-18 in various cell types and could also recognize IL-18 from other species, suggesting their potential use in studying inflammation and immune responses.
