Abstract
Bovine viral diarrhea-mucosal disease (BVD-MD) virus antigen was detected in bovine fetal muscular cells from sera of 42 cattle persistently infected with noncytopathic BVD-MD virus by the indirect immunoperoxidase procedure (IIP) but not from sera of 100 apparently healthy cattle. These findings agreed with the results obtained by the interference method. Furthermore, BVD-MD virus antigens were detectable in the smears of buffy coats by the IIP procedure and in the formalin-fixed tissue sections by the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex procedure. These procedures are therefore expected to be useful for rapid detection of BVD-MD virus antigen.
