Effects of oxyamylose and polyacrylic acid on foot-and-mouth disease and hog cholera virus infections.

چکیده
Two interferon-inducing polycarboxylates were tested for antiviral activity on foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) virus infections in mice, guinea pigs, and swine. Polyacrylic acid, given intraperitoneally, had a protective effect on infection by FMD virus administered in the peritoneal cavity of mice and in the foot pad of guinea pigs. Chlorite-oxidized oxyamylose (COAM) was effective in mice at a dosage of 2 mg/kg. Swine were not protected against naturally transmitted FMD by 120 mg/kg of COAM nor by polyacrylic acid. Swine were not totally unresponsive to COAM since it delayed symptoms of hog cholera. Interferon was not detected in the serum of COAM-treated swine. With FMD virus, an example was found of activity of interferon inducers in experimental hosts and lack of activity in a natural host.

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a major infectious disease of cloven-hoofed animals that is caused by the FMD virus (FMDV). This disease has significantly adverse economic impacts; therefore, rapid control measures are urgently. Traditional ranchers in Iran use Alhagi maurorum Medik. to treat FMD; therefore, we aimed to examine the antiviral activity of methanolic, ethanolic, and aqueous-acetic...

During 2010-2011, Real-time PCR procedure was used to detecting FMDV RNA on 147 epithelium samples from the field. In this survey, for Real-time PCR from 3D gene segment as conserve region selected for tracking all of seven serotypes FMDV. The assay detected the viral RNA in all serotypes of FMDV. The rRT-PCR specifically detected FMD virus in sample with greater sensitivity than our convention...

Abstract : Foot and Mouth Disease is one of the important live stocks contagious viral disease caused by Aphtovirus genus , that is belong to family RNA virus picornaviride. The important characteristic of FMD virus is high mutation that give rise to diversity of Antigen in surface of Neutralizing proteins. For this reason FMD virus have 7 distinct serotype and many subtype. Vaccination is o...
