Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Persists in the Light Zone of Germinal Centres

The situation of foot and mouth disease virus types and subtypes in Iran in 1980-1983

Rapid and accurate diagnosis of Foot-and-mouth disease virus by Real-time PCR in field samples

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...

Assessment of Foot and Mouth Virus Subtype O2016 Genetic Alterations During Successive Passages in BHK Monolayer

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...

Comparison of two gel filtration chromatography resins for the purification of foot-and-mouth disease virus as a purified vaccine antigen

Introduction: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious and economically devastating viral disease of livestock that is categorized in list A of animal diseases by the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE). Vaccination is effective against FMD and the vaccine production centers largely use the industrial ultra-filtration and chromatography in order to remove the cellular proteins...

Assessment of the Immunogenicity of Foot and Mouth Disease Vaccine Produced by Razi Institute against Types of A13, A15 and O2010 of FMD Virus

Background and Aims: Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) is a highly contagious infectious disease of livestock which has made a barrier to hygiene causing severe loss in livestock and their products. The aim of this study was the assessment of antibody response against foot and mouth disease virus  types A13, A15 , O2010, after injection of FMD vaccine candidate produced by Razi Institue. Mater...
