Leung YH, Zhang LJ, Chow CK, Tsang CL, Ng CF, Wong. Poultry drinking water used for avian influenza surveillance. Emerg Infect Dis. 2007 Sep;13(9):1380-2
Samples of drinking water from poultry cages, which can be collected conveniently and noninvasively, provide higher rates of influenza (H9N2) virus isolation than do samples of fecal droppings. Studies to confirm the usefulness of poultry drinking water for detecting influenza (H5N1) should be conducted in disease-endemic areas.
