Isolation and molecular identification of Nipah virus from pigs.

University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. sazaly@um.edu.my

Nipah viruses from pigs from a Malaysian 1998 outbreak were isolated and sequenced. At least two different Nipah virus strains, including a previously unreported strain, were identified. The findings highlight the possibility that the Malaysia outbreaks had two origins of Nipah virus infections.
