A comparative study of acute phase protein concentrations in historical and modern broiler breeding lines [PDF]
Acute-phase proteins (APP) are secreted from the liver as a result of inflammation or infection and are measurable in serum and plasma. To determine whether the constitutive APP serum amyloid A (SAA), alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), ceruloplasmin (Cp ...

Infectious bursal disease virus in chickens: prevalence, impact, and management strategies
Infectious bursal disease (IBD), also known as Gumboro disease, is a highly contagious, immunosuppressive disease of young chickens. Although first observed about 60 years ago, to date, the disease is responsible for major economic losses in the poultry ...

Intracellular Interference of Infectious Bursal Disease Virus [PDF]
ABSTRACT A search for dominant-negative mutant polypeptides hampering infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) replication has been undertaken. We have found that expression of a mutant version of the VP3 structural polypeptide known as VP3/M3, partially lacking the domain responsible for the interaction with the virus-encoded RNA polymerase ...

Plant expression vector's construction of VP2 gene of infectious bursal disease virus
The VP2 gene of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV, HZ96 strain) was amplified by polymerase chain reaction with special primers containing Kpn Ⅰ and Sal Ⅰ. The purified PCR product was digested by restricted enzymes Kpn Ⅰ and Sal Ⅰ.

Molecular epidemiology of infectious bursal disease virus in Zambia [PDF]
Nucleotide sequences of the VP2 hypervariable region (VP2-HVR) of 10 infectious bursal disease viruses detected in indigenous and exotic chickens in Zambia from 2004 to 2005 were determined. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the viruses diverged into two
