Six Freesian steers were subcutaneously inoculated with the virulent rinderpest virus strain Kabete "0" and sacrificed at the height of fever. Sections of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were stained according to the peroxidase anti-peroxidase (PAP) technique. Labelling of viral antigen,
Five Holstein heifers (approximately 8 months of age and weighing 225-275 kg) were inoculated subcutaneously with 1,000 TCID50 of rinderpest virus, virulent Kabete O strain. They become clinically ill 2 to 5 days post-inoculation, with fever (40 C to 41.5 C), conjunctivitis, and diarrhea. All were
Antiserum against canine distemper virus (CDV) was raised in pigs by intranasal inoculation with CDV strains CND65 and ROCKBORN. Immunoglobulin fractions were conjugated with horseradish peroxidase. Peroxidase-conjugated anti-CDV immunoglobulin preparations were used for the detection and titration
A modified solid phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA) is described for visual detection of anti-rinderpest virus (RPV) antibodies in cattle and goat sera. Dots of RPV antigens were adsorbed to nitrocellulose (NC) paper (hence Dot-EIA) and the adsorptive reactive sites were blocked with skim milk powder.
An RT-PCR/ELISA system has been developed that detects and differentiates Rinderpest virus (RPV) from the other closely related morbillivirus of ruminants, Peste des petits Ruminants virus (PPRV). In addition, using lineage specific probes, it is possible to determine whether the virus sample is
An exact assessment of the animal health situation in a country is an essential element in formulating eradication and control programmes, and in regulating international trade in animals and animal products from that country. Due to a lack of human and technical resources, Veterinary Services in
