Ribonucleoprotein of avian infectious bronchitis virus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ribonucleoprotein (RNP) of avian infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) was examined by electron microscopy after shadowing with carbon/platinum. Linear RNP strands up to 6.7 microns in length, from three IVB strains, were sensitive to both pancreatic RNase and to proteases. These strands were obtained from spontaneously disrupted complete particles but not from disrupted incomplete particles that lacked RNP. They were also released from Nonidet P40-disrupted particles and could be isolated on sucrose density gradients at a density of 1.27 g/ml. In some cases, helical RNP complexes associated with virus particles were observed that were similar to RNPs of human coronavirus strain 229E and mouse hepatitis virus strain 3.

A serological survey for detection of avian infectious bronchitis virus antibodies in domestic village chickens in Esfahan, central Iran
Infectious bronchitis (IB) is a very contagious disease caused by a coronavirus (IBV). In chickens, thevirus affects the respiratory, reproductive, and urinary systems. This study was carried out to determine theseroprevalence of anti-IBV antibodies in domestic village chickens. Serum samples of 300 domestic villagechickens from Esfahan (centeral Iran) were collected and examined for the presen...

Avian infectious bronchitis (IB), caused by a gammacoronavirus, is an OIE-listed (List B) disease and characterized by respiratory and renal involvements, causing high mortality, and economic loss in both layers and broilers. In comparison with other diagnostic methods, real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and conventional RT-PCR are potent, more sensitive and faster techniques for infe...
متن کاملDetection of Infectious Bronchitis Virus in Allantioc Fluid by Rapid Hemagglutination Test.
To detect the presence of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) in infected allantoic fluid (AF) of SPF embryonated eggs rapid hemagglutination (HA) activity after treatment with neuraminidase enzyme was used. Twenty IBV suspected materials were inoculated in SPF embryonated eggs via chorioallantoic cavity. Harvested AFs were treated with neuraminidase enzyme and the presence of IBV was detected by...
متن کاملGenotyping of Infectious bronchitis viruses isolated from broiler chicken farms in Iran during 2015-2016
BACKGROUND: Avian infectious bronchitis is considered as an important viral disease worldwide. Genotyping based on the S1 subunit of spike protein gene of the causative agent, avian infectious bronchitis virus, can be used to classify IBV isolates. Objective: This survey was carried out to characterize the infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) genotypes circulating in Iran and determine their preva...

Background: Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is the etiological agent of an acute and highly contagious disease. Infectious bronchitis (IB) affects chicken of all ages and poses major economic loses to the poultry industry worldwide. The continuous evolution of the spike protein (S1) of IBV is responsible for the prevalence of many serotypes/genotypes around the world. Multipl...
متن کاملTwo particle types of avian infectious bronchitis virus.
Two distinct types of avian infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) particles were isolated on sucrose density gradients. The higher density particles banded at 1.18 g/ml, had typical coronavirus morphology and contained all the structural polypeptides and a complete genome. The less dense particles of density 1.13 g/ml appeared to have typical coronavirus morphology, although they were much more fla...
