Genotyping of bovine viral diarrhoea virus isolates from the Czech Republic

Genotyping of bovine viral diarrhoea virus isolates from the Czech Republic

This study was focused on the genetic typing of bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) isolates obtained from 41 serum samples of persistently infected cattle in the Czech Republic in the period of 2004 to 2007. For the differentiation of BVDV isolates, the 5’-UTR and Npro regions were selected. A 288-bp fragment from 5’-UTR and 428-bp fragment from Npro of the selected isolates were amplified by ...

Genotyping of Varicella Zoster Virus Clinical Isolates from the Czech Republic.

Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a highly contagious human pathogen. Virus causes varicella (chickenpox) as a primary infection during which a lifelong latent infection is established. It is easily passed through airborne particles, droplets in exhaled air and fluids from blisters or sores. Virus can be also transmitted indirectly by a contact with articles of clothing and other items exposed to...

Molecular analysis of bovine viral diarrhoea virus isolates from South Africa.

The presence of bovine viral diarrhoea virus in South Africa has been confirmed by several serological surveys. However, little is known about its biological properties. Twenty five isolates obtained by isolation in tissue culture and detected by means of the antigen capture ELISA from clinically sick cattle and from foetal calf serum in South Africa were characterized on the basis of analysis ...

The occurrence of bovine virus diarrhoea/muscosal disease in Iran

Prevalence of bovine viral diarrhoea virus antibodies in India.

A study was undertaken regarding the prevalence of bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) antibodies in bovine sera which tested negative for rinderpest and peste des petits ruminants virus antibodies. The samples were collected between January 1996 and December 1997. A total of 439 samples (327 cattle and 112 buffalo from 17 states of India) were tested using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorb...
