Abstract Background and Aims: To identify and isolation of viruses a susceptible cell is need which can be primary or line. The use of primary cells is laborious, time consuming and expensive, while the use of cell lines is much easier and faster. IRKHBK cell line was originated from primary cells of bovine kidney by continuous passage. The aim of this study was to introduce the IRKHBK cell ...

Introduction: The most common mode of rabies virus transmission is through a bite wound or contact of broken skin with saliva of a rabid animal. Various other routes of virus transmission include exposure of mucous membranes (i.e. eyes, nose, and mouth) to infected saliva of a rabid animal, aerosol transmission, and corneal transplantation. Laboratory workers during work with rabies virus and v...

The two basic methods for establishing a laboratory diagnosis of dengue infection are detection of the virus (e.g. culture) or detection of anti-dengue antibodies (serology). Until recently, detection of the virus implied solely the recovery of the virus by culture; however, current procedures can detect dengue virus RNA and specific dengue virus antigens. Consequently, these procedures are lik...

the objective of this study was to compare the effect of two conventional h9n2 avian influenza (ai) vaccines on replication and shedding of the h9n2 ai virus in broiler chickens. these inactivated oil emulsion vaccines contain either a uae or an iranian h9n2 ai isolate. one hundred and fifty one-day-old commercial broiler chickens were randomly divided into six groups. the birds, except for the...

The growing number of computer viruses and the detection of zero day malware have been the concern for security researchers for a large period of time. Existing antivirus products (AVs) rely on detecting virus signatures which do not provide a full solution to the problems associated with these viruses. The use of logic formulae to model the behaviour of viruses is one of the most encouraging r...

Development of a sensitive and selective detection system for pathogenic viral agents is essential for medical healthcare from diagnostics to therapeutics. However, conventional detection systems are time consuming, resource-intensive and tedious to perform. Hence, the demand for sensitive and selective detection system for virus are highly increasing. To attain this aim, different aspects and ...

β- thalassemia major is a common hemoglobinopathy in humans. in some journals, numerous studies have reported different prevalence of hepatitis c among β- thalassemia major because thalassemic patients need multiple blood transfusions and blood transfusion is a common transmission pathway for hepatitis c virus. thus this study was performed for detection of anti-hcv between β- thalassemia major...

objective: as we are approaching the global eradication of wild poliovirus, laboratory surveillance of poliovirus by the gold standard cell culture method becomes increasingly important. as there is a lot of concern about accurate and sensitive detection of imported wild and vaccine derived polioviruses (vdpvs) in polio-free countries, in this study we assessed and compared the sensitivity of t...

background epstein barr virus (ebv) is one of the most common viral infections in human population. ebv has a significant role in pathogenesis of hodgkin's lymphoma, burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. the role of ebv in non-hodgkin’s lymphoma, diffuse large b cell (nhl - dlbl) in the head and neck is controversial. objectives the purpose of this study is to find out the ...
