ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.3201/eid2401.170401 | Abstract: | To determine whether fruit bats in Singapore have been exposed to filoviruses, we screened 409 serum samples from bats of 3 species by using a multiplex assay that detects antibodies against filoviruses. Positive samples reacted with glycoproteins from Bundibugyo, Ebola, and Sudan viruses, indicating filovirus circulation among bats in Southeast Asia. © 2018, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
