P.I. Marcus et al.. Super-Sentinel Chickens and Detection of Low-Pathogenicity Influenza Virus. EID Volume 13, Number 10–October 2007
Chicken interferon-α administered perorally in drinking water acts on the oropharyngeal mucosal system as an adjuvant that causes chickens to rapidly seroconvert after natural infection by low-pathogenicity Influenza virus. These chickens, termed super sentinels, can serve as sensitive early detectors of clinically inapparent infections.
