Poultry refers to artificially raised birds, including chickens, ducks, geese, quails, etc. Poultry is raised mainly for its meat, eggs and feathers. Over the past few decades, poultry has become the key to solving global food security problems, and its proportion of world meat production has gradually increased and surpassed pork to become the first. In addition to being a major food source, poultry is also an important source of zoonotic diseases such as Campylobacter, Salmonella, avian influenza, etc. It can be used as an animal model, such as chicken is one of the animal models of cancer and several infectious diseases. Studies have shown that birds and mammals have similar immune responses to pathogens (e.g., bacteria, viruses and parasites), both innate and adaptive.
Poultry Antibodies
In recent years, with the increasing scale of poultry farming, poultry infectious diseases have come to be widely prevalent worldwide, which poses a serious challenge to global food safety issues and human health. Antibodies as a reagent for studying the avian immune system are crucial for the control of poultry diseases. Currently, researchers have developed several types of avian antibodies, including chicken CD marker antibodies, chicken immunoglobulin antibodies, chicken lymphokine antibodies, and duck and quail antibodies. These antibodies are used to study avian host-pathogen interactions to improve poultry health.
