Progress towards sheep and goat pox vaccines

Vaccine, 1983
Sheep pox and goat pox are diseases of sheep and goats caused by pox virus. The variety and range of clinical signs produced by a single strains of virus in different breeds and age groups of animal tends to overlap those produced by different viruses within the same group or even different groups of pox viruses.

Retrospective analysis of epizootic situation in sheep pox and goat pox

Veterinaria Kubani, 2020
Sheep pox and goat pox are highly contagious transboundary diseases of sheep and goats caused by viruses belonging to the genus Capripoxvirus of the Poxviridae. These infections of goats are subject to mandatory notification to the OIE. Diseases cause great economic damage to sheep and goat breeding, due to the death and forced slaughter of sick ...

The Extent and Impact of Sheep Pox and Goat Pox in the State of Maharashtra, India

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2000
A survey of sheep and goat producers in the state of Maharashtra, India, was undertaken to ascertain the extent and economic impact of sheep pox and goat pox (SGP). One thousand one hundred and sixteen owners were interviewed. Eighty owners (7.2%) reported that they had experienced an outbreak of the disease in the previous 6 years.

Preliminary characterisation of the sersenk strain of goat pox virus

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1980
The Sersenk strain of goat pox virus first isolated in Iraq, grew on chorioallantoic membranes (CAM) of developing chicken embryos producing generalised large pocks, 2 to 3 mm in diameter, on the third day post-inoculation. The virus killed the inoculated embryos.

Spot agglutination test for the rapid diagnosis of goat pox

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1996
A spot agglutination test was standardised for the rapid diagnosis of goat pox using antigen and antibody systems after being coupled to glutaraldehyde-treated sheep erythrocytes. The sensitivity was comparable to that of counter-immunoelectrophoresis and reverse-phase passive haemagglutination tests.

Isolation and identification of the Sersenk strain of goat pox virus in Iraq

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1979
Goat pox virus was isolated during an outbreak of pox infection among goats in the Sersenk district, Iraq. The isolated virus grew on the chorioallantoic membranes of developing chick embryos and in primary lamb testis cell cultures. It was identified morphologically as a pox virus and serologically as a member of the Capripoxvirus group in the family ...

Prevalence, distribution, and risk factor for sheep pox and goat pox (SPGP) in Algeria

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2017
A cross-sectional study using a tested questionnaire was carried out across Algeria between January and June 2014. Our investigation demonstrated that of the 150 flocks visited, 21 were positive for sheep pox and goat pox (SPGP) with an overall flock prevalence of 14% (95% CI 11.08-16.92%) suggesting that SPGP is endemic in Algeria.

Evaluation of hyperimmune sera against goat pox viral antigens

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1998
Laboratory diagnosis of goat poxvirus (GPV) requires suitable diagnostic reagents (sera and antigens). GPV-infected scab suspension has been used as antigen for production of hyperimmune sera (HIS) by several workers (Pandey and Singh, 1972; Tantawi et al., 1980; Sharma et al., 1988).

Detection of goat pox antigen and antibody by the counter immunoelectrophoresis test

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1988
The counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIE) test was standardised for the detection of goat pox antigen and antibody using inactivated antigens. The chloroform inactivated and live antigens were equally sensitive for detection of goat pox precipitins. The precipitinogens of goat pox virus (GPV) were found to be soluble in nature.

Coagglutination test: A simple and rapid diagnostic technique for goat pox

Tropical Animal Health and Production, 1989
The coagglutination test was standardised using Staphylococcus aureus strain Cowan I (containing Protein A) coated with anti-goat pox serum for the detection of goat pox antigen of infected goat skin or kid kidney cell culture antigen. Agglutination was observed within 10 seconds in virus dilutions up to 10(-6). As the test is easy to perform it can be
