Key result
Fowl aviadenovirus species E serotype 8b is detected in 100% of inclusion body hepatitis cases.
Why the study?
Comprehensive molecular surveillance of fowl aviadenovirus strains associated with inclusion body hepatitis in Thai poultry farms was limited despite sporadic outbreaks since 2007.
Population
28 liver samples from chickens with IBH in four Thai provinces
Design
Observational molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis study
Follow-up
June to December 2024

Novel FAdV strains characterized in Thai poultry; leaves open targeted surveillance and vaccine needs.
Observational (n=28)
Yes
Pohuang et al. (2025) conducted an observational in Inclusion body hepatitis (n=28). Fowl aviadenovirus serotype 8b was evaluated on Detection of fowl aviadenovirus by PCR and sequencing. Fowl aviadenovirus species E, serotype 8b was identified in 100% of the 28 sampled chickens with inclusion body hepatitis, revealing two phylogenetically distinct groups.
