Article Synopsis
- The study investigates a natural outbreak of carp edema virus disease (CEVD) in koi carp, focusing on various aspects such as clinical symptoms, pathology, immune responses, and viral detection methods.
- Findings revealed significant changes in white blood cell counts, with increased monocytes and decreased lymphocytes in affected fish, alongside heightened phagocytic activity.
- Additionally, the research identifies new histopathological damage in the pancreatic tissue of diseased koi carp, contributing to a deeper understanding of CEVD pathology.
This work describes the first confirmed cases of carp oedema virus disease (CEVD) in Slovakia and the Czech Republic and the phylogenetic analysis of Czech and Slovak carp oedema virus (CEV) isolates. Four cases of disease outbreak in the Czech Republic are described, the oldest dating from mid-May 2013 and one case from Slovakia dating from May 2019. In all cases, virus presence was confirmed using nested PCR.
