Blood specimens were fractionated into\nplasma and mononuclear cell components. Plasma\nwas tested for antibodies against feline immunodeficiency\nvirus (FIV) and feline foamy virus (FeFV), as\nwell as p27 antigen of FeLV.

However, neither\nserologic nor molecular evidence of zoonosis with any\nof the 3 feline retroviruses was detected.<\/jats:p>\n\t\t\t\t<jats:p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<jats:bold>Conclusions and Clinical Relevance<\/jats:bold>\u2014Veterinarians\nencounter occupational exposures to animal material that\nplace them at high risk for zoonoses. For feline retroviruses,\nthe risk of zoonosis among healthy adult humans\nappears to be extremely small. However, potential for\nretroviral zoonosis, especially for viruses such as FeLV\nand FeFV that can replicate in human cells, cannot be\neliminated, and universal precautions to reduce potential\nexposures should be used when handling sick cats.
