Abstract excerpt
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) has recently been segregated into two genotypes, namely, BVDV 1 and BVDV 2. Viruses of the BVDV 2 genotype are a cause of hemorrhagic and acute fatal disease in cattle in the US and Canada. In this study, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to the newly described BVDV 2 were produced after immunization with virus or a combination of virus and E2 peptide. From an original panel of 17...
