serological comparison and antigenic relationships of seven serotypes of infectious bronchitis virus using the hemagglutination-inhibition test.the antigenic relationships, antigenic spectrum, and immunogenicity of seven isolates of infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) were examined using the hemagglutination-inhibition (hi) test. because there was a discontinuity of antigenic relationships and a high degree of cross-reactivity among serotypes of ibv in cross-hemagglutination-inhibition tests, the range of antigenic spectrum used to group the serotypes with the hi test should be wider than the limits suggested by the plaque-reduction test. ...19846204631
determination of the antigenic relationships within the massachusetts (m41) type of infectious bronchitis virus using the hemagglutination-inhibition test.the antigenic relationships, antigenic spectrum, and immunogenicity of seven ibv-massachusetts-41 isolates were investigated using the hemagglutination-inhibition (hi) test. hi titers equal to 32 are considered suspicious, titers lower than 32 are considered negative, and titers higher than 32 are considered positive immune responses to infectious bronchitis virus (ibv). some isolates of massachusetts-41 ( m41 ) were capable of inducing large quantities of antibodies in chickens following inocul ...19846204632
immunomodulatory activity of isoprinosine on experimental viral infections in avian models.the immunomodulatory activity of isoprinosine treatments have been experimentally verified on chicken infected by three different viruses: newcastle disease, fowl plague and avian infectious bronchitis. in protection tests, positive variations in the mean day of death rather than in the mortality rate were found depending on the modality of treatment. a stimulatory influence on primary anti-newcastle disease virus antibody response was observed. in the avian model the isoprinosine antiviral effe ...19846207123
muscle protein synthesis and growth of two strains of chicks vaccinated for newcastle disease and infectious bronchitis.rates of in vitro protein synthesis were monitored during an 8-week period in male broilers and leghorns. the birds received vaccinations during weeks 2 and 5 posthatching for newcastle disease and infectious bronchitis by the administration of a standard dose of the mixed vaccine in the drinking water. both types of birds exhibited a marked decline in the rate of protein synthesis during each week after vaccination. the decline in ribonucleic acid (rna) and deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) levels we ...19846207519
rapid serotyping of infectious bronchitis virus isolates with the hemagglutination-inhibition test.the hemagglutination-inhibition (hi) test was evaluated as a method of typing recent suspect infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) isolates. hemagglutination (ha) antigen was prepared from each isolate by phospholipase c treatment of virus concentrated from allanto-amniotic fluids of infected chicken embryos. an hi test was run with the ha antigen of each isolate against a battery of 17 antisera that had been prepared against different ibv strains classified by virus neutralization (vn). the hi test ...19846207809
egg production in relation to the results of a long term serological survey of 73 flocks of fowl.seventy-three flocks of fowl were tested at regular intervals for the presence of precipitins to fowl adenovirus (av) and infectious bronchitis virus (ibv), haemaggluinating inhibiting antibodies to bc in 14 virus, and of agglutinins to mycoplasma gallisepticum (m.g.) and mycoplasma synoviae (m.s.). in all the eight flocks affected with egg drop syndrome (eds '76), egg production problems were associated with increasing numbers of bc14 virus reactors and av reactors. in flocks showing production ...19806243424
avian infectious bronchitis virus structural polypeptides: effect of different conditions of disruption and comparison of different strains and isolates.variations in the conditions used for disruption of purified virus involving differences in heat treatment and reducing agent concentration produced little affect on the polypeptide profiles of the massachusetts 41 (m 41) strain of avian infectious bronchitis virus obtained by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. comparisons of the structural polypeptides of 12 ibv isolates, consiting of m 41, six serologically related viruses and representatives of five other serotypes, showed that the viruses c ...19806243925
two 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 flattened than the more dense particles. furthermore, these particles lacked the ribonucleoprotein polypep ...19806245175
protection of laying hens against infectious bronchitis with inactivated emulsion vaccines.commercially-reared laying chickens were challenged at 31 weeks of age with a virulent infectious bronchitis (ib) virus. they showed a sharp drop in egg production, despite having been vaccinated at four and eight weeks old with live attenuated ib vaccines to a recommended schedule. in contrast, similar birds that had been further immunised at point-of-lay with inactivated oil emulsion ib vaccine, or with a combined ib/newcastle disease (nd) emulsion vaccine, showed no detectable fall in egg pro ...19806246669
the polypeptides of infectious bronchitis virus (ibv-41 strain).the massachusetts strain of avian infectious bronchitis virus was purified from embryonated hens' eggs. four major species of apparent mol. wt. 90 000, 52 000, 29 000 and 26 000 were resolved by sds-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. omission of reducing agent failed to resolve the 29 000 mol. wt. component. labelling of acrylamide gels with 125i-concanavalin a indicated that polypeptides of mol. wt. 90 000, 29 000 and 26 000 were glycosylated and, in the absence of reducing agent, that the 29 ...19806247427
the polypeptide composition of isolated surface projections of avian infectious bronchitis virus.disruption of avian infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) particles with 4% triton x-100 and 1.0 m-kcl and centrifugation through a sucrose gradient containing 0.1% triton x-100 and 1.0 m-kcl enabled separation of the petal-shaped surface projections. by negative-contrast electron microscopy the separated projections appeared mainly as rosettes containing 3 to 12 projections radiating from a central core, although single projections and rosettes containing up to 16 projections were seen. sds-page of ...19806247435
coronavirus multiplication strategy. i. identification and characterization of virus-specified rna.we examined the synthesis of intracellular rna in primary chicken embryo kidney cells infected with the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus. infected cells were labeled with (32)p(i) in the presence of actinomycin d for the duration of the viral multiplication cycle, and nucleic acids were extracted, denatured, and analyzed on agarose slab gels. six major rna species were found. none of these rnas was found in extracts of mock-infected cells. all six of the virus-specified rnas (design ...19806247505

structural proteins and glycoproteins of infectious bronchitis virus particles labeled during growth in chick embryo cells.seven australian infectious bronchitis viruses incorporated radioactive amino acid label during growth in two types of cell culture. from purified virions, four major polypeptides of molecular weights 91,000 (gp91), 51,000 (vp51), 25,000 (gp25) and 23,000 (vp23) were separated by page. two minor polypeptides of molecular weights 210,000 (gp210) and 185,000 (gp185) were also identified. 3h-glucosamine was incorporated during growth of virus into gp210, gp185, gp91 and gp25. bromelain digestion of ...19816268567
ribonucleoprotein of avian infectious bronchitis virus.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 su ...19816268741
structural polypeptides of coronavirus ibv.avian infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) was grown and radiolabelled with 35s-methionine, 3h-leucine and 3h-glucosamine in de-embryonated chicken eggs. approximately 12 different polypeptides were clearly detected by sds-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of virus preparations. growth of ibv in chorioallantoic membrane cells labelled with 35s-methionine indicated that most of these polypeptides, and additional ones, some of which were glycosylated, were host components. five polypeptides appeared ...19816268743
polypeptides of infectious bronchitis virus. i. polypeptides of the virion.infectious bronchitis virus (ibv), strain beaudette, grown in cultured cells contained five structural proteins with apparent mol. wt. of 170 000 (p170), 94 000 (gp94), 50 000 (pp50) 30 000 (gp30) and 26 000 (p26). both gp94 and gp30 are glycopeptides since they were labelled with [3h]glucosamine. the only phosphorylated polypeptide was pp50, and both it and gp94 were occasionally resolved into two bands. two other polypeptides with mol. wt. of 28 000 (p28) and 14 000 (p14) were sometimes associ ...19816271900
influence of temperature of incubation on chicken embryo tracheal organ cultures and chick embryos infected with strains of avian infectious bronchitis virus.the ciliostatic and embryo lethal effect of four strains of avian infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) were observed at two different incubation temperatures. in organ cultures, nephrosis-producing ibv strains (gn-2 and m-41) were slightly more ciliostatic and respiratory strains (beaudette and kita-1/tokushima) less ciliostatic at 40.5 degrees c than at 37 degrees c. mortality of chicken embryos infected with the gn-2, m-41 and kita-1/tokushima strains was greater at 40.5 degrees c than at 37 degr ...19816273983
cross-immunity in chickens using seven isolates of avian infectious bronchitis virus.groups of 75 chickens were each infected with one of 7 isolates of infectious bronchitis virus (mass 41, holland 52, se 17, ark 99, clark 333, jmk, and florida). following recovery, they were challenged along with susceptible controls to the homologous and 6 heterologous isolates. cross-immunity was determined by virus recovery 4 or 5 days post-challenge. challenge with the homologous isolate resulted in 90-100% protection. challenge with heterologous isolates gave variable results and an overa ...19816274293
serologic and cross-protection studies with several infectious bronchitis virus isolates from delmarva-reared broiler chickens.five isolates, from broiler-type chickens, capable of causing acute respiratory disease were identified as infectious bronchitis virus (ibv). the agar-gel precipitin (agp) test was effective in identifying the isolates as ibv. virus-neutralization (vn) and cross-challenge tests indicated two of the isolates to be massachusetts types and one to be a jmk type. the remaining isolates were different from strains normally encountered in chickens reared on the delmarva peninsula. one isolate, although ...19816274294
detection and quantification of antibodies to infectious bronchitis virus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) for detecting and quantifying antibodies to infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) is described. purified antigen, prepared on sucrose density gradients, was required to decrease the nonspecific background, and saline was found to be superior to bicarbonate buffer for coating the cuvettes with antigen. the sensitivity of the test in measuring antiserum titers could be altered greatly and linearly by adjusting the protein content of the antigen. the elisa w ...19816274297

structural analysis of virion proteins of the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus.we have found six major polypeptides in virions of the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus grown in tissue culture: four glycoproteins, gp84, gp36, gp31, and gp28, and two non-glycosylated proteins, p51 and p23. in addition, we detected three minor species: two glycoproteins, gp90 and gp59, and one non-glycosylated protein, p14. two-dimensional tryptic peptide mapping showed that gp36, gp31, gp28, and p23 comprise a group of closely related proteins which we have designated the "p23 fa ...19826283141
synthesis of coronavirus mrnas: kinetics of inactivation of infectious bronchitis virus rna synthesis by uv light.infection of cells with the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus results in the synthesis of five major subgenomic rnas. these rnas and the viral genome form a 3' coterminal nested set. we found that the rates of inactivation of synthesis of the rnas by uv light were different and increased with the length of the transcript. these results show that each rna is transcribed from a unique promoter and that extensive processing of the primary transcripts probably does not occur.19826283182
enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the detection of antibodies to infectious bronchitis virus.an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) for antibodies to avian infectious bronchitis (ib) virus is described. the immune response of chickens following vaccination with ib virus was monitored using this test, and the titers were compared with those obtained by serum neutralization. the elisa appears to be suitable for ib serology.19826284110
the immune response of the chick following viral vaccinations and immunization with sheep red blood cells.the effects of viral vaccinations and immunization with sheep red blood cells (srbc) on the humoral response of pullets were investigated. pullets were vaccinated with marek's disease virus, newcastle disease virus (ndv), infectious bronchitis virus (ibv), and infectious bursal disease virus at appropriate ages used in commercial practice. at seven weeks, the pullets were intramuscularly immunized with srbc. ndv and ibv antibodies were detected by hemagglutination-inhibition tests. hemagglutinat ...19826284114
types of avian infectious bronchitis strains isolated in quebec.between 1976 and 1980, 24 isolates of infectious bronchitis virus were obtained from quebec flocks. the serological classification of these isolates was demonstrated by cross neutralization tests using antisera to 13 different reference virus strains. of the 24 isolates, ten were identified as connecticut, six holland and one se-17 types. seven strains did not react with any of the specific antisera.19826284325
[cultivation of various avian viruses in pheasant trachea organ cultures and chick embryos].stationary tracheal organ cultures of pheasants and chick embryos, treated with a mucolytic agent were used to study the ciliostatic effect of the following viruses: fowl pest (fpv), newcastle disease (ndv), infections laryngotracheitis (ilv), and infections bronchitis (ibv) - strain beaudette. in chick embryo tracheal cultures ciliostasis was found to set in as follows: for fpv - at the 24th hour; for ndv - at the 72nd-120th hour; for ilv - at the 168-192nd hour; and for ibv-at the 72nd-96th ho ...19826287709

preparing hemagglutinating antigen from isolates of infectious bronchitis virus.the hemagglutinating (ha) activity of 14 strains of infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) was investigated. the optimal conditions for ibv antigen preparation include inoculation of 10- or 11-day-old specific pathogen-free embryonated eggs and incubation for 30 hours at 37 c. embryos were inoculated via the allantoic cavity with 0.1 ml of a low embryonic passage of the virus (10(7) to 10(8) eid50/ml). allantoic fluid was harvested and pooled, and a 100-fold concentration of virus particles was achie ...19826293442
coronavirus proteins: biogenesis of avian infectious bronchitis virus virion proteins.we examined the synthesis of viral structural proteins in cultured cells infected with the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus. tryptic peptide mapping was used to determine the structural relationships of the intracellular proteins to the virion polypeptides. pulse-chase experiments were performed to identify precursors to the virus-specific proteins. we found that the nucleocapsid protein, p51, and the small viral membrane proteins gp31, gp28, and p23 do not undergo post-translationa ...19826294329
coronavirus proteins: structure and function of the oligosaccharides of the avian infectious bronchitis virus glycoproteins.the recent finding that the e1 glycoproteins of murine coronaviruses contain only o-linked oligosaccharides suggested that this unusual modification might be a distinguishing feature of coronaviruses and might play an essential role in the life cycle of this family of viruses. to examine these possibilities, we analyzed the oligosaccharide moieties of the membrane proteins of the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus. in addition, we determined the effect of inhibiting the glycosylation ...19826294330

comparison of the hemagglutination-inhibition test with the constant-virus diluting-serum microneutralization test for detecting antibody to avian infectious bronchitis virus.an evaluation was made of the hemagglutination-inhibition test and the constant-virus diluting-serum microneutralization test, two serological techniques that are used in detecting antibodies to avian infectious bronchitis. the repeatabilities and sensitivities of both tests were similar. both tests compared favorably when testing high-titered antisera, but antibody titers detected varied when low-titered sera were used.19836316897
coronavirus ibv: structural characterization of the spike protein.the spike protein (s; surface projection) of avian infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) strain m41 comprises two glycopolypeptides, s1 (mol. wt. 90 x 10(3] and s2 (mol. wt. 84 x 10(3], in equimolar proportions. the apparent mol. wt. of s was calculated as 354 (+/- 17) x 10(3) following co-sedimentation with catalase in sucrose gradients. incubation of radiolabelled ibv with urea resulted in the removal of most s1, but none of s2, from the virus particle. a similar result was obtained using low conc ...19836319549
significance of lysosomes in the morphogenesis of coronaviruses.virus-containing electron-dense membrane-bound cytoplasmic bodies are described in tracheal epithelial cells of chickens infected with infectious bronchitis virus and in intestinal epithelial cells of swine infected with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus. using silver-methenamine staining, phosphotungstic acid staining and acid phosphatase enzyme cytochemical staining of ultra-thin sections, these bodies were shown to be virus-containing secondary lysosomes and residual bodies. the accumulation of ...19846320768
the use of reference preparations in virus content testing of vaccines.a series of virus content tests on newcastle disease, avian infectious bronchitis and marek's disease vaccines was carried out over a period of several years on commercial products together with a standard preparation of each virus. analysis of the results of marek's disease vaccine titrations revealed a good correlation between plaque count and the ratio obtained for the standard vaccine tested in parallel. expression in relation to a reference preparation is therefore of value to vaccine manuf ...19846321508
coronavirus multiplication: locations of genes for virion proteins on the avian infectious bronchitis virus genome.six overlapping viral rnas are synthesized in cells infected with the avian coronavirus infectious bronchitis virus (ibv). these rnas contain a 3'-coterminal nested sequence set and were assumed to be viral mrnas. the seven major ibv virion proteins are all produced by processing of three polypeptides of ca. 23, 51, and 115 kilodaltons. these are the core polypeptides of the small membrane proteins, the nucleocapsid protein, and the 155-kilodalton precursor to the large membrane proteins gp90 an ...19846321790
vaccination of chickens with newcastle disease and infectious bronchitis vaccines administered singly and in combination.the reactivity and immune response were determined in chickens following the administration of newcastle disease (nd) and infectious bronchitis (ib) vaccines given singly and in combination. when given singly, the ib component resulted in an earlier appearance of respiratory signs than when it was combined with nd vaccine. the intensity of the respiratory reaction appeared similar in each case, however. measured by virus-serum neutralization and from challenge with nd and ib viruses, no evidence ...19846322151
effects of subtype variations in the holland strain of infectious bronchitis virus when applied as a vaccine.massachusetts-type infectious bronchitis viruses (ibv) designated h120, from three sources, have been evaluated as vaccines. significant subtype variations were observed with the different vaccines based upon challenge virus infection and typical ib lesions induced where homologous and heterologous serotypes were used. in numerous cases, there was little agreement between challenge virus recovery from the respiratory tract and the presence or absence and severity of ib lesions. the study indicat ...19846324156
avian mycoplasma infections: prototype of mixed infections with mycoplasmas, bacteria and viruses.mixed infections involving mycoplasmas, viruses and bacteria are well recognized in chickens. synergism has been demonstrated between mycoplasma gallisepticum and the viruses of newcastle disease and infectious bronchitis and escherichia coli, although the outcome of infection is influenced by many factors associated with the host and the organisms. airsacculitis in broilers due to m. synoviae or m. gallinarum may be precipitated by concurrent respiratory virus infections including vaccine strai ...19846324630
