Pathogenicity Study and Restriction Enzyme Profile of a Recently Isolated Infectious Bursal Disease Virus in Iran

The pathogenicity of a recent isolate of Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), IR499, isolated from a nonvaccinated flock with 17.5 % mortality rate in susceptible SPF chickens, chickens embryos and broilers was discussed. The molecular characterization of the virus based on the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) pattern was also investigated. The mortality rates were 85% and 22%...

Characterization of a Highly Virulent Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

Pathogenicity of Czech Isolates of Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

Juranová, R. , Nguyen Thi Nga, L. Kulíková, V. Jurajda: Pathogenicity of Czech Isolates of Infectious Bursal Disease Virus. Acta Vet. Brno, 2001, 70: 425-431. An epidemics of infectious bursal disease (IBD) affected chicken farms in the Czech Republic in the mid nineties. Characteristics of six strains of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), isolated from broiler chickens, lying hybrid pulle...

Comparison of Pathogenicity and Serologic Response of Four Commercial Infectious Bursal Disease Live Vaccines.

Various commercial vaccines for immunization of broiler chickens against infectious bursal disease (IBD) are available, so it would be appropriate to compare the pathogenicity and immune response of chickens to these vaccines. In this study the pathogenicity and serologic response of four IBD vaccines, cloned D78®, Bursine-2®, Bursimune® and Cevac Gambo-L®, were evaluated in specific pathogen f...

Isolation, Characterization and Standardization of New Infectious Bursal Disease Virus for Development of a Live Vaccine

Background and Aims: Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is an acute contagious viral disease of birds worldwide. The causative virus induces a persistent immune suppression following destroy B lymphocytes precursors in bursal lymphoid follicles. Vaccination is the main strategy for prevention of the disease in commercial poultry industry. Materials and Methods: To produce a live vaccine against th...

Cloning and secretory expression of VP2 gene of infectious bursal disease virus in eukaryotic cells

VP2 gene coding region of a vaccinal strain (D78) of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) was clonedin a eukaryotic expression vector, pSec Tag2A. The gene was placed downstream of Ig κ chain leadersequence, under the control of human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) immediate early enhancer and promoter. Theconstruct pSec Tag2A-VP2 was transfected in COS-7 cell line and the expression and secretion of...
