Members holdings
APHA contains an extensive collection of biological material (including virus, bacteria, parasites, soft tissues, fluids) from both field (naturally infected) and experimentally infected cases from a wide range of animal hosts. A proportion of this collection is exploited commercially via APHA Scientific, to support product development, Proficiency Testing schemes and research for private and government sectors.
