The Effect of Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus Biotypes on Bovine Oocyte In Vitro. [PDF]
Bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) is a significant pathogen with two biotypes, cytopathic (CP) and non‐cytopathic (NCP). The aims were to examine the impact of BVDV on the expression of genes related to apoptosis and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in vitro. Oocytes were infected with two BVDV biotypes.
