Studies on bovine ephemeral fever. I. Isolation and preliminary characterization of a virus from natural and experimentally produced cases of bovine ephemeral fever.

Production of Monoclonal Antibody against Prokaryotically Expressed G1 Protein of Bovine Ephemeral Fever Virus

Epitope-G1 of bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV) G glycoprotein has been genetically and antigenically conserved among various isolates of BEFV and only reacts with anti-BEFV neutralising antibodies. Therefore, it is a candidate antigen for development of the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for serological identification bovine ephemeral fever (BEF)-infected animals. The aim of this ...

Isolation of Bovine Ephemeral Fever Virus in Iran

Expression of G1- epitope of bovine ephemeral fever virus in E. coli : A novel candidate to develop ELISA kit

Bovine ephemeral fever is an acute and arthropod-borne viral disease of cattle and water buffalo which occurs seasonally in most of the world tropical and subtropical regions. The epizootic feature of the disease has been reported in Iran with serious economic consequences. The surface glycoprotein G of bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV) is composed of 4 antigenic sites (G1-G4) and plays the m...

Fluorescent antibody studies on ephemeral fever virus.

THEODORIDIS, A. Fluorescent antibody studies on ephemeral fever virus. Onderstepoort J. vet. Res., 36 (2) , 187-190, 1969. The preparation and use of a highly wecific fluorescein-conjugated antiserum against bovine ~phemeral fever virus are described. The demonstration of fluorescent cytoplasmic inclusions IS a dependable diagnostic test. The test also revealed cross reactions between the vir u...
