QUESTION
Samples to be taken for the isolation of virus in EDS is?
OPTIONS
(A) Oviduct
(B) Pharynx
(C) Faeces
(D) All of the above
ANSWER
(A) Oviduct
EXPLANATION
For egg drop syndrome (EDS-76), caused by duck adenovirus 1, the oviduct is an important target organ and a principal tissue from which virus can be isolated. Thus option A is correct; pharyngeal and fecal samples may sometimes contain virus, but the oviduct is the characteristic specimen among the choices.
