Aim The study was designed to measure the seroprevalence of viral and bacterial diseases: Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis, bovine viral diarrhea, bovine leukemia, bovine parainfluenza, bovine respiratory syncytial disease, brucellosis, and paratuberculosis among bovine of Himachal Pradesh during the year 2013-2015. Materials and Methods The serum samples were collected from seven districts ...

The antiviral effects of bovine interferons on the replication of bovine respiratory tract viruses were studied. Bovine turbinate monolayer cultures were treated with bovine interferons and challenged with several bovine herpesvirus 1 strains, bovine viral diarrhea virus, parainfluenza type 3 virus, goat respiratory syncytial virus, bovine respiratory syncytial virus, bovine adenovirus type 7, ...

conclusions the newly developed simple indirect elisa showed high sensitivity and specificity with respect to vnt. developing such a simple, sensitive, and specific elisa which is much less expensive than the available commercial elisa kits can improve the detection of bvdv infections, help to eliminate the disease from herds, and decrease economic losses caused by this disease. background bovi...

Most studies of infectious diseases in East African cattle have concentrated on gastro-intestinal parasites and vector-borne diseases. As a result, relatively little is known about viral diseases, except for those that are clinically symptomatic or which affect international trade such as foot and mouth disease, bluetongue and epizootic haemorrhagic disease. Here, we investigate the seroprevale...

VirOligo is a database of virus-specific oligonucleotides. The VirOligo database consists of two tables, Common data and Oligo data. The Oligo data table contains PCR primers and hybridization probes used for detection of viral nucleic acids and the Common data table contains the experimental conditions used in their detection. Each oligonucleotide entry contains links to PubMed, GenBank, NCBI ...

The current knowledge is reviewed in regards to the importance of bovine respiratory syncytial virus in the bovine respiratory disease complex. The epidemiology, clinical disease, pathologic findings, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of this viral disease are discussed.
