Abstract excerpt
On the basis of genetic differences, bovine viral diarrhoea viruses (BVDV) are subclassified into two distinct genotypes, BVDV type I and BVDV type II. We selected German BVDV type II isolates using the BVDV type I-specific monoclonal antibody WB160 and flow cytometric analysis for further characterization. For molecular characterization, a 288-bp fragment of the 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) of the selected...
