B1 Crossref Works API · 2026-05-29 · PUUV
Bank voles ( Myodes glareolus syn. Clethrionomys glareolus ) are frequently used as an animal model in ecological and biomedical studies and are an important reservoir of viral and bacterial zoonotic pathogens, e.g., Puumala hantavirus (PUUV). Here we describe an accidental PUUV outbreak in a large bank vole laboratory colony caused by an accidental introduction of infected wild-trapped bank voles, and the successful eradication of the virus. The eradication plan was based on results of previous studies showing tha
