	Poxviridae disease - Poxviridae disease
		Poxviridae viral particles (virions) are generally enveloped (external enveloped virion- EEV), though the internal mature virion (IMV) form of the virus, which contains no envelope, is also infectious.
		The name of the family, Poxviridae, is a legacy of the original grouping of viruses associated with diseases that produced poxs in the skin.
		Modern viral classification is based on the shape and molecular features of viruses, and the smallpox virus remains as the most notable member of the family.

	Poxviridae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Poxviridae viral particles (virions) are generally enveloped (external enveloped virion- EEV), though the internal mature virion (IMV) form of the virus, which contains different envelope, is also infectious.
		The prototype of poxvirus family is vaccinia virus, which has been used as a successful vaccine to eradicate smallpox virus.
		IEV transports along microtubules to reach cell periphery and fuse with plasma membrane to become cell-associated enveloped virus (CEV) that triggers actin tails on cell surfaces or is releared as EEV.

	Infectieziekten Bulletin 16.03 2005 Poxviridae en de volksgezondheid
		De Poxviridae zijn onderverdeeld in 2 subfamilies: de Entomopoxvirinae, en de Chordopoxvirinae, op basis van gastheerspecificiteit (insecten vs vertebraten).
		De hierboven beschreven virussen behoren tot het genus parapox, en infecties met deze virussen leiden in het algemeen tot gelokaliseerde laesies, zoals beschreven.
		Gezien het ontbreken van een betrouwbare surveillance is de vraag hoe hard die bewering is. Wel is duidelijk dat de belangstelling voor Poxviridae vanwege de dreiging van bioterrorisme is toegenomen, wat wellicht heeft geleid tot een grotere alertheid op het optreden van dergelijke infecties.

	AVIS - African swine fever
		African swine fever (ASF) virus was originally classified as a member of the family Iridoviridae, but the structure of the genome and the replication strategy of the virus have been shown to have many features in common with members of the Poxviridae (Vinuela, 1985).
		The proposal that ASF virus be placed in a family separate from the Iridoviridae was accepted at the 6th Meeting of the International Committee on the Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) in Sendai (Japan) in 1984.
		Using restriction length fragment polymorphism and nucleotide sequencing techniques, numerous strains of ASF virus have been detected, which may vary in virulence.
