Figures & Tables

Fig. 1

Distribution of feline foamy virus Gag, Bet and Env antigens seroreactivity in 223 domestic cats from Poland. Dashed red lines indicate determined cut-off values

Fig. 2

Detection of FFVfca-specific antibodies by immunoblotting assays with a cellular antigen in representative feline serum samples. M – prestained protein ladder; A – lane with Crandell-Rees feline kidney cells (CRFK)/FFVfca cells lysate as antigen; B – lane with uninfected CRFK cells lysate as antigen; P – FFVfca positive control serum; N – FFVfca negative control serum; 34/64, 34/79, 34/15 – representative samples with their ELISA reactivity to FFVfca Gag antigen (OD Gag)

Scatter plot of ELISA results showing relationship between (A) feline foamy virus Gag and Bet and (B) Gag and Env antigens; correlation coefficients are indicated on both graphs. Circles indicate Gag ELISA negative and squares Gag ELISA positive samples

Fig. 4

Distribution of the cat serum samples’ reactivity to feline foamy virus Gag antigen by animal origin. Black circles indicate Gag ELISA-negative and grey squares Gag ELISA-positive samples; A – Warsaw; B– Gdańsk; C– Kraków agglomerations
