Western blot detection of infectious bursal disease virus infection.

Comparison between Micro and Tube Virus Neutralization Tests for Detection of Serological Responses to Infectious Bursal Disease Virus Following Vaccination

Development of a recombinant protein-based dot-blot hybridization assay for the detection of antibody to chicken infectious bronchitis virus

Nucleocapsid (N) protein of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), one of the viral structural proteins, inducesstrong antibody response in natural infection. In this study, a simple, recombinant N protein-based dot-blottest was developed to serologically examine chicken serum samples for the presence of IBV antibody.Initially, 72 serum samples were tested for the presence of IBV antibody using a c...

Expression of the VP2 gene of classical D78 infectious bursal disease virus in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris as a secretory protein

Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is the causative agent of Gumboro disease, an infectious disease of global economic importance in poultry. The expression of heterologous proteins in P.pastoris is fast, simple and inexpensive. In this study, VP2 encoding gene of classical D78 IBDV was amplified using reverse transcription (RT) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned into pPICZαA vector...

Effect of experimental infectious bursal disease virus on clinical signs and pathogenesis of avian influenza virus H9N2 in turkey by real time PCR

Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) in turkeys may result in immunosuppression, and inability of turkeys to resist nonpathogenic or less pathogenic organisms. A total number of 120 day-old commercial male turkeys were purchased and blood samples were collected from 20 day-old turkeys, remaining 100 were divided into four equal groups and kept in separated rooms. Groups 1 and 2 were infected ...
