| congenital bovine epizootic arthrogryposis and hydranencephaly in australia. distribution of antibodies to akabane virus in australian cattle after the 1974 epizootic. | at the end of the 1974 epizootic of bovine congenital arthrogryposis and hydranencephaly in south-eastern new south wales, an australia-wide serological survey (about 4,000 serums) was made to determine the ditribution of cattle possessing serum neutralising antibodies against akabane virus. eighty per cent of the serums from cattle in northern australia (western australia, northern territory, and queensland) were positive. a detailed study in the epizootic area in new south wales (particularly ... | 1976 | 1016149 |
| a rapid indirect elisa for the serogrouping of australian orbiviruses. | this communication describes the development and evaluation of a simple and rapid method for the classification of australian orbiviruses into one of seven established serogroups (i.e. bluetongue, epizootic haemorrhagic disease of deer, palyam, eubenangee, corriparta, wallal, warrego) or an 'ungrouped' category. the australian orbivirus serogrouping elisa (sg-elisa) utilised a sodium deoxycholate-treated cell lysate preparation from infected bhk cells which was subsequently probed in an indirect ... | 1994 | 7829593 |
| intra- and inter-serogroup genetic relatedness of orbiviruses. i. blot hybridization of viruses of australian serogroups. | viruses in the eubenangee, wallal and warrego serogroups of orbiviruses have been isolated primarily in australia. several isolates in these three serogroups were examined by gel electrophoresis and blot hybridization of genomic rna. conserved and variant genes were identified by the degree of hybridization between cognate genes. the dsrna profiles of isolates within a serogroup exhibited heterogeneity in polyacrylamide gels, but they were indistinguishable in agarose gels. isolates within a ser ... | 1988 | 2826661 |
