| 011V-02838 | Virus | MERS-coronavirus | Middle East respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) was isolated in June 2012 from a man with acute pneumonia and renal failure. MERS-CoV is a zoonotic virus, which means it is a virus that is transmitted between animals and people. Studies have shown that humans are infected through direct or indirect contact with infected dromedary camels. MERS-CoV has been identified in dromedaries in several countries, including Egypt, Oman, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, and MERS-CoV specific antibodies (a finding that indicates an animal has previously been infected with MERS-CoV) have been identified in dromedaries in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia. | Middle East respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus | MERS-CoV | lineage C of the genus Betacoronavirus | Erasmus MC isolate | Platinum | In stock | RG3 | ERASMUS-MC | 1,500€ | View all details on this product . . . | Free access available |
