Declarations
:
: All institutional and national guidelines for the care and use of animals were followed (EU Directive 2010/63/EU for animal experiments). Ethical approval was waived for this study, due to collecting blood samples during a routine veterinary inspection, which were collected regardless of this study. Part of the blood samples was used for routine veterinary determinations in herd and another part for this study. Informed consent of owner of herd was obtained. The collection of biological material during routine veterinary procedures does not require the approval of an ethical committee in Poland. Experiments on tissues collected in a slaughterhouse post-mortem do not require approval of the ethical committee. The only required document is the permission from local Veterinary Administration for the collection of material and transportation which was obtained. The permission is in accordance to European Union regulation: Article 17 "Research and other specific purposes" of the regulation (EC) no 1069/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 laying down health rules as regards animal by-products and derived products not intended for human consumption and repealing Regulation (EC) no 1774/2002 (Animal by-products Regulation) ExternalRef removed and article 11 "Special rules on research and diagnostic samples" and annex VI "Special rules on research, feeding and collection and disposal" chapter I "Special rules on samples for research and other purposes" of the Commission Regulation (EU) No 142/2011 of 25 February 2011 implementing Regulation (EC) No 1069/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down health rules as regards animal by-products and derived products not intended for human consumption and implementing Council Directive 97/78/EC as regards certain samples and items exempt from veterinary checks at the border under that Directive Text with EEA relevance (ExternalRef removed).
