Abstract | ||
In the present study, a non-cytopathogenic bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) field strains from bovine semen samples were detected by immunofluorescence (IF) and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Two out of five semen samples tested positive for the presence of BVDV antigen employing antigen capture ELISA kits. The two semen samples were injected in Madin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells in a trial for BVDV isolation. The chosen two samples were not cytopathic and subjected for further identification and genotyping using one step reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay. The isolated BVDV field strains from semen were found to be BVDV genotype 1. | ||
