A New Approach for Monitoring Ebolavirus in Wild Great Apes	2014-09-18		.txt	text/plain	5636	256	46	CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Our new approach will contribute to a strategy to protect apes from future EBOV infections by early detection of increased incidence of exposure, by identifying immunologically naïve at-risk populations as potential targets for vaccination, and by providing a means to track vaccine efficacy if such intervention is deemed appropriate. In zone A, 20 gorilla fecal samples were opportunistically collected while following habituated gorillas roughly 2 and 3 years after ebolavirus infection was confirmed in ape carcasses at that site using a combination of RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry and antigen capture [5, 9] . All human EVD outbreaks that had previously occurred in our sampling zone study are thought to be the result of handling infected wild animal carcasses, including gorillas [13] . This study represents the first time that ebolavirus antibodies have been detected in wild great ape fecal samples, and carries important implications for the future management and survival of these primates.	./cache/cord-303647-c4umbcvn.txt	./txt/cord-303647-c4umbcvn.txt
