[ 1 ] - Detection of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus in Bovine Semen Using Nested-PCR
A rapid and sensitive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and nested-PCR were used to detect bovine viral diarrhea virus 1 (BVDV-1) in bull semen. Selected primers could amplify a part of the 5´UTR of the BVDV genome. A 294 bp DNA fragment was amplified and specificity of the results was confirmed by direct sequencing of the PCR product. Prior to RNA extraction, the seminal...
[ 2 ] - Polymorphism of Bovine Lymphocyte Antigen DRB3.2 in Holstein Bulls of Iran Using PCR-RFLP
The Holstein bulls (n=50) were genotyped for bovine lymphocyte antigen (BoLA-DRB3.2) alleles by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Genomic DNA was extracted from bull semen using phenol-chloroform method. A two-step PCR was conducted in order to amplify a 284 base-pair fragment of the target gene. Amplicons were digested by RsaI, HaeIII and BstyI ...
