abstract

abstract background and aims: to identify and isolation of viruses a susceptible cell is need which can be primary or line. the use of primary cells is laborious, time consuming and expensive, while the use of cell lines is much easier and faster. irkhbk cell line was originated from primary cells of bovine kidney by continuous passage. the aim of this study was to introduce the irkhbk cell line for isolation, propagation and diagnosis of animal viruses. material and methods: samples of the infected animals, such as the lymph nodes, tonsils, lungs and blood were used for virus isolation. primary bk cell and irkhbk cell line cultures were inoculated with the prepared samples simultaneously under the same conditions. identification of the isolated viruses was carried out with virus neutralization test using standard antibodies. results: bovine herpes virus-1, parainfluenza-3, bovine viral diarrhea, and peste des petits ruminants virus were easily isolated and propagated in irkhbk cells. the viral titer was higher in irkhbk cell line compared to the primary bk cell. the irkhbk cell line also showed considerable susceptibility in serological tests.   conclusion: the results show that irkhbk cell line can be used for virus isolation, detection and propagation. this cell line can be used for animal and human viruses’ research studies and also other pathogens that are able to grow in the cell culture.

Development and Cytogenetic Characterization of a Continuous Bovine Kidney Cell Line (IRKHBK) and Evaluation its Susceptibility to some Viruses

In this syudy a continuous bovine kidney cell line derived from a primary bovine kidney cells was established for the first time in Iran. The cells were originating from two-day-old normal male calf of Holstein breed. The cell cultures were continuously passaged following complete proliferation of primary cells. The specific properties or characteristics of the cell were defined using cytogenet...

Use Of Razi Bovine Kidney Cell Line For Proliferation Of Pneumocystis Carinii

  Background and Objective: Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) has been historically the most prevalent opportunisticinfection in patients infected with the human immunodeficiencyvirus. Culture of the organism has not been faced with suitable success in artificial media, while various results have been reported for cell culture media. The aim of this study was proliferation of Pneumocystis carin...
