an experimental study on early pathogenesis of a very mvirulent isolate of infectious bursal disease virus, employing immunohistochemistry

in this study, immunohistochemistry was used to clarify the early stages of viral kinetics and cycliccourse of ibdv, ir499, which has been described earlier as a very virulent strain (vvibdv). fifteen, 4-week-old spf chickens were inoculated with 10³ eid50 of vvibdv, ir499, via oculo/nasal route. five birdsserved as controls, and inoculated with phosphate buffered saline (pbs). the birds were t...

Evaluation of Experimental Inactivated Infectious Bursal Disease Vaccine Using a Local Very Virulent Pathotype Strain

Characterization of a Highly Virulent Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

Vaccination of Chicks with an Experimental Oil-emulsion Vaccine against Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

Very Virulent Infectious Bursal Disease Virus

The primary feature of vvIBDV is the ability to induce high mortality. Mortality ranges from 5% – 25% in broilers and 30% – 70% in layers. Surviving birds are severely affected with a high condemnation rate. vvIBDV induces clinical signs similar to Gumboro disease, which is induced by classical virulent strains of IBDV, except that the disease is more pronounced and acute in individual birds an...

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 ...
