This work was aimed for isolation and identification of Rota and Corona viruses at New Valley governorate. During the period from August 2022 to December 2023, 102 fecal samples were collected from diarrheic (n=92) and healthy calves (n=10) and isolate on Madin Darby bovine Kidney (MDBK), cell line. All positive samples on tissue culture were examined for presence of BRV and BCoV by using an antigen Enzyme Linked Immune Sorbent Assay (ELISA).
