Research Project:
GENERATION OF BROAD SPECTRUM, HIGH TITER, CAPRINE POLYCLONAL ANTISERA AGAINST BOVINE VIRAL DIARRHEA VIRUS (BVDV)
Location: Ruminant Diseases and Immunology Research Unit
Project Number: 3625-32000-106-10
Project Type:
Trust
Start Date: Dec 15, 2011
End Date: Dec 14, 2013
Objective:
The objective of this cooperative research project is to elicit the production of antisera in goats that recognizes a broad range of bovine viral diarrhea viruses (BVDV).
Approach:
Antigenically and genetically diverse pestivirus strains will be selected. Inoculum will be prepared by growing selected viruses in tissue culture or by expressing proteins in a baculovirus vector. Inoculum will be delivered to goats in order to produce antibodies.
