Title: Digoxigenin-labeled nucleic acid probe for the detection of infectious bursal disease virus in infected cells. Author: Hathcock TL, Giambrone JJ. Journal: Avian Dis; 1992; 36(2):206-10. PubMed ID: 1320860. Abstract: A cDNA probe was synthesized from the VP-4 region of a virulent field isolate of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV). The probe was labeled during synthesis with a non-radioactive steroid hapten, digoxigenin. The probe was used to develop a hybridization assay to detect the presence of IBDV in infected cell-culture and tissue suspensions from the bursa of Fabricius of infected chickens. The test was rapid, reproducible, and sensitive, and it could detect four serologic subtypes of IBDV, including the GLS-5 isolate.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
