An Australian bovine parvovirus isolate (BPV 267) was found to haemagglutinate human, guinea-pig, rat and dog erythrocytes, out of a range of 16 species of erythrocyte tested. The haemagglutinating activity was generally found to be both pH and temperature dependent. The virus was found to replicate best in intestinal epithelium, macrophage and lung cells, out of 9 bovine cell types tested. Highest yields of virus were obtained by the use of selected cell strains at low-passage levels which were maintained near neutral pH under conditions of high rates of cell growth. Studies of the rates of thermal inactivation with time showed the virus to be relatively stable at 37 degrees C, 56 degrees C and 70 degrees C, the incorporation of serum proteins, 1 M MgCl2 and 2 M NaCl in the medium having no influence on stability at 56 degrees C. The virus was resistant to the action of CHCl3, ether and 1% trypsin, and its replication was inhibited by BUDR, this effect being reversed by thymidine. Actinomycin D was found to inhibit virus replication, but only when applied during the first 8 h post-infection. Density gradient studies showed infective virus to have a density of 1.41 g cm-3; haemagglutinating non-infective virus with defective morphology having a density of 1.31 g cm-3. In addition, a proportion of morphologically-complete haemagglutinating, but non-infective virus particles was found at a density of 1.36 g cm-3. The virus proved to have a mean diameter of 22 nm.  相似文献

In an effort to develop alternate disinfectants for rotaviruses, pilot studies were conducted to determine if bacterial proteases could render simian-11 (SA-11) rotavirus non-infectious. SA-11 was found to be fairly temperature resistant, retaining a low-level of infectivity following 65 degrees C treatment for 2h at pH 8.5. It also resisted pH 8.5-5 at 45 degrees C for 2h. Alcalase, an alkaline protease, was the most effective of the various proteases (alcalase, durazym, neutrase, and savinase) tested. To analyze specific parameters for alcalase, SA-11 virus (10(5.5) median tissue culture infective dose/ml original titer) was treated at pH 6, 25 and 15 degrees C (simulated field conditions), with 0.1 and 1.0% alcalase. At pH 6.0 and 15 degrees C, 0.1% alcalase reduced SA-11 titer by 0. 75 log in 24h, and by 1.25 log in 120h. At 25 degrees C and pH 6.0, 0.1% alcalase reduced the titer by 2.25 log after 24h, and by 2.75 log in 120h. At pH 6.0 and 15 degrees C, 1% alcalase reduced SA-11 titer by 1.50 log in 24h and by 1.75 log in 120h. At the same enzyme concentration and pH, but at 25 degrees C the titer was reduced by 2. 75 log in the first 24h and by 3.25 log at 120h. These results show that the alkaline protease alcalase is capable of inactivating SA-11 virus to a certain degree depending on conditions. Further definition of operating parameters, demonstration of inactivation under field conditions and analysis whether the demonstrated degree of inactivation would decrease calf morbidity and mortality remain to be explored at this time.  相似文献

It has been demonstrated that after experimental infection of pig slurry from the space under the slatted floor (infection dose of 10(6)PFU per ml), the Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) survived for 72 hours at the temperature of 15 degrees C and at pH 6.5, but was inactivated after 96 hours. When technologically treated pig slurry from the storage tanks was saturated with water and infected with ADV at the dose of 10(5)PFU per ml, the virus survived for 23 days when kept at 15 degrees C and 4 degrees C and at pH 6.8, but was inactivated under the same conditions after 30 days. When the infective ADV dose in the technologically treated pig slurry in the storage tanks was reduced to 10(4)PFU per ml, the virus survived 16 days at +4 degrees C and pH 7.0 and 8.0 but was inactivated within 23 days after infection.  相似文献

The porcine epidemic coronavirus (PEDV), tentatively classified as a coronavirus, was adapted to Vero cells and a plaque test developed for infectivity titration, allowing us to test the biological and biophysical properties of the virus. Growth kinetics showed peak titers of 10(5.5) plaque-forming units ml-1 15 h after infection. Filtration experiments and electron microscopy revealed a particle diameter between 100 and 200 nm. The buoyant density of the virus was 1.18. The particle lost its infectivity on treatment with lipid solvents. Virus replication could not be inhibited by 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine. PEDV was moderately stable at 50 degrees C, but heat sensitivity was not altered by divalent cations. At 4 degrees C, the virus was stable between pH 5.0 and 9.0, but at 37 degrees C stability was restricted to the pH range 6.5-7.5. Viral infectivity was not impaired by ultrasonication or by multiple freezing and thawing. PEDV was not neutralized by transmissible gastroenteritis virus antiserum. On the basis of the tests carried out, PEDV is a pleomorphic, enveloped RNA virus with a particle diameter of approximately 150 nm and a buoyant density of 1.18. Infectivity depends on the presence of trypsin, and infected cells show a tendency to fuse and to form syncytia. All of these properties, as well as its physicochemical characteristics, allow PEDV to be classified as a coronavirus.  相似文献

Thermal inactivation of Berne virus proceeded at a linear rate between 31 degrees and 43 degrees C. Storage at temperatures lower than -20 degrees C preserved the infectivity, while at 4 degrees C appreciable loss occurred between 92 and 185 days. Freeze-drying or desiccation at 22 degrees C caused only insignificant loss of infectivity. Virus preparations were not affected by pH values between 2.5 and 10.3. Inactivation by UV occurred more rapidly than with herpes, toga and rhabdoviruses. Berne virus infectivity was sensitive to pronase and B. subtilis proteinase. It was not inactivated by trypsin and chymotrypsin treatment, which resulted in enhancement of infectivity; low concentrations of pronase (less than 10 micrograms ml-1) had a similar effect on Berne virus. Neither phospholipase C or RNase, alone or in combination, nor sodium deoxycholate (0.1%) inactivated the virus; in contrast, Triton X-100 (0.1%; 1.0%) caused rapid inactivation with a constant level of residual infectivity.  相似文献

Metalloproteases that selectively hydrolyze connective tissue proteins may tenderize meat without creating texture problems associated with myofibrillar protein degradation. Our objective was to characterize the activity of bovine placental proteases to determine whether they can improve meat tenderness through disruption of the connective tissue matrix. Enzymes were extracted, crudely purified, and proteolytic activity was assessed against gelatin and collagen under varying pH and temperature conditions using both SDS-PAGE and zymography. Gelatin zymography revealed proteolysis between 57 and 63 kDa, with decreased activity as buffer pH decreased from pH 7.4 to 5.4 (37 degrees C). Proteolytic activity was pronounced at 37 degrees C, moderate at 25 degrees C, and absent at 4 degrees C following 48-h incubation (pH 7.4). Placental enzymes were metalloproteases inhibited by excess EDTA. Maximum proteolysis was achieved in the presence of Ca2+, with or without Mg2+ and Zn2+. Absence of Ca2+ decreased proteolytic activity. Complete degradation of both the 125- and 120-kDa proteins of the alpha-chains of gelatin was achieved following enzyme incubation for 6 h at 37 degrees C or 24 h at 25 degrees C. No degradation was observed following enzyme incubation with native Type I collagen. Given the marked decrease in enzyme activity at pH 5.4 and 4 degrees C (standard industry conditions), bovine placental metalloproteases would not be expected to contribute to connective tissue degradation or improve meat tenderness.  相似文献

The tenacity of viruses in liquid manure of cattle was examined in a total of five samples inoculated with ECBO-virus (strain LCR-4) representing viruses without envelope and Aujeszky virus (field isolate) representing enveloped viruses. The titers were examined at regular intervals over a period of 26 weeks. On the day of inoculation each sample had a titer of 10(5) ID50/ml. After 16 weeks complete inactivation was observed in the Aujeszky virus sample stored at 20 degrees C. The Aujeszky virus sample wich was kept at 4 degrees C at 26 weeks had a titer of 10(1,75) ID50/ml. In the samples inoculated with ECBO virus after 26 weeks of inoculation a titer of 10(3) ID50/ml was found in the manure stored at 20 degrees C. No influence on the virus titers in the liquid manure samples was observed either from pH or the number of bacteria (3,4 x 10(7)-1.16 x 10(8)/ml during the examination period.  相似文献

Aerosols of bovine parainfluenza type 3 virus were generated with a Devilbiss 40 nebulizer from Eagle's minimum essential medium and nasal secretion from a non-infected calf and stored in a rotating drum at temperatures of 6 degrees C or 32 degrees C and relative humidities of 30% or 90%. The aerosols were sampled at seven minutes, one, two and three hours after the start of generation with an all glass impinger (AGI-30) and titrated for infectivity in cell cultures. Physical decay was determined by a rhodamine tracer technique. Media, temperature or relative humidity had little effect on the survival of parainfluenza type 3 virus during spraying (zero to seven minutes). During aging of aerosols at 32 degrees C and 30% relative humidity, parainfluenza type 3 virus was less stable in Eagle's minimum essential medium than in nasal secretion from a noninfected calf, but at 6 degrees C and 30% relative humidity, the virus was more stable in Eagle's minimum essential medium. At 32 degrees C, the virus was less stable during aging at 90% relative humidity than at 30% relative humidity. The virus was consistently more stable during aging of aerosols at 6 degrees C than at 32 degrees C.  相似文献

A study was made of different aspects of the bluetongue virus neutralizing antibody response and the reaction between the virus and antibody. Optimum neutralization was obtained in a 2mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 9,0, at a temperature of 4 degrees C. The reaction of virus and antibody could be demonstrated by electron microscopy in the formation of clumps which were shown to be serotype specific. It was found that both IgM and IgG antibodies can neutralize the virus, but that IgM reached its maximum level sooner after infection than IgG.  相似文献

A modified version of the test method of the Comité Européen de Normalisation (CEN) was developed using formic acid and three commercial disinfectants to evaluate virucidal activity against three non-enveloped viruses, bovine enterovirus type 1 (ECBO virus), mammalian orthoreovirus type 1 and bovine adenovirus type 1 (BAV 1). Determination of the effects of temperature was carried out at 20 and 10 degrees C. All tests with protein load used bovine serum albumin (BSA) and yeast extract. The investigations were performed in suspension tests and in carrier tests using poplar wood virus carriers. The carrier tests showed that ECBO virus could be inactivated at 20 degrees C with 1% formic acid within a 60 min reaction time. For disinfection of ECBO virus at 10 degrees C within 60 min, a 2% concentration of formic acid was necessary. Formic acid was ineffective against reovirus and bovine adenovirus and cannot be recommended as a reference disinfectant. Inactivation of ECBO virus and adenovirus type 1 using a disinfectant containing aldehydes and alcohols could be achieved, but only at room temperature. The disinfection of reovirus type 1 at room temperature with this product was possible without a protein load. This disinfectant exhibited disinfection ability at 10 degrees C at a concentration of more than 2% or with a longer exposure time. A disinfectant containing aldehydes was effective at room temperature but its effect was reduced in the presence of organic matter. Inactivation at 10 degrees C was found only against adenovirus. The fourth disinfectant, which contained peroxiacetic acid, inactivated all test viruses at a concentration of 0.5% within 15 min independent of temperature and protein load.  相似文献

Survival of Aujeszky's disease virus in pig slurry was investigated during anaerobic storage at 5, 20, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 degrees C using 100-ml laboratory models simulating the conditions in slurry tanks during winter and summer seasons and during anaerobic digestion in batch reactors. The inactivation rate was found to increase with increasing temperature. Virus was inactivated at 5 and 20 degrees C in 15 weeks and 2 weeks, respectively. At 35 degrees C (mesophilic conditions) the virus was inactivated in 5 hours and at 55 degrees C (thermophilic conditions) no virus could be detected after 10 minutes.  相似文献

By selecting pseudorabies virus (PrV) as a model virus, this study assessed the feasibility of applying viral inactivation strategies to manufacturing medicinal products from the milk of transgenic sows. The efficacy of heat, acidic/alkaline and detergent treatments was also evaluated with respect to their ability to inactivate PrV in milk samples. Experimental results indicate that PrV was inactivated obviously at least 7.125 log10 for 30 min at 60 degrees C. At alkaline values of pH 10 and acidic value of pH 4, PrV infectivity was reduced to 3.625 log10 and exceeded 5 log10, respectively. Moreover, PrV virus was inactivated efficiently (> 3.875 log10) by using 0.25-1% of Triton X-100 treatment and without a loss of biological activity of the recombinant human coagulation factor IX (rhFIX). RESULTS: of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed detergent inactivation method for PrV inactivation of rhFIX production from transgenic products, especially in milk materials.  相似文献

Canine coronavirus (CCoV) is responsible for mild or moderate enteritis in puppies. The virus is highly contagious and avoiding contact with infected dogs and their excretions is the only way to ensure disease prevention. Since no studies have yet focused on the sensitivity of CCoV to chemical biocides the present investigation examined the efficiency of physical and chemical methods of viral inactivation. CCoV infectivity was stable at +56 degrees C for up to 30 min, but tended to decrease rapidly at +65 degrees C and +75 degrees C. Germicidal ultra-violet (UV-C) light exposure demonstrated no significant effects on virus inactivation for up to 3 days. CCoV was observed to be more stable at pH 6.0-6.5 while extreme acidic conditions inactivated the virus. Two tested aldehydes inactivated the virus but their action was temperature- and time-dependent. The methods for CCoV inactivation could be applied as animal models to study human coronavirus infection, reducing the risk of accidental exposure of researchers to pathogens during routine laboratory procedures.  相似文献

The vaccination strain of infectious bursal disease virus, multiplied in cultures of chick embryo cells, was very resistant to heat. At a temperature of 56 degrees C the infection titre of the virus (TCID50) decreased by 0.9 log10 within two hours and by 1.2 log10 within five hours, but the virus remained infective still after 24 hours. At a temperature of 37 degrees C, a slight decrease in infection titre was recorded only after two days and a decrease by 1.2 log10 was recorded within ten days. After the 21st day the virus was almost inactivated. At a temperature of about 20 degrees C the infection titre of the virus decreased linearly from the third to the twelfth weeks. The control samples kept at +4 degrees C retained their infectivity for three months and at -20 degrees C even for six months. The discussion deals with the effect of the concentration of protein and magnesium chloride in the medium on the thermostability of infectious bursal disease virus.  相似文献

Bovine blood containing bluetongue virus was stored as whole blood with EDTA (4 degrees C), as washed cellular components (4 degrees C), and as washed cellular components with 10% DMSO (-70 degrees C). Periodic isolation attempts were made over a period of 330 days in four cell lines and embryonating chicken eggs (intravenous inoculation). Bluetongue virus was successfully isolated in all systems from most samples throughout the test period. There appeared to be more variation amongst days of attempted isolation within systems than between systems.  相似文献

1. An experiment was conducted to investigate the development of shortening-induced toughness in the Pectoralis major (PM) muscles of commercially processed broilers, air-chilled at 0 degrees C and -12 degrees C, as a function of muscle pH early post-mortem. Electrical stimulation was used immediately after stunning and neck cutting to provide carcases with pH values 15 min post-mortem (pH15 min) ranging between 6.79 and 5.85. 2. The deep PM muscle temperatures of carcases chilled at -12 degrees C were lower (cooler) after primary chilling and at 215 min post-mortem than those chilled at 0 degrees C, although chilling regimen had no major effect on pH values over the 24 h post-mortem period. However, carcases chilled at -12 degrees C had longer sarcomeres, lower cooking losses and lower shear force values than those chilled at 0 degrees C. 3. Correlation analysis of the results for both chilling regimens clearly demonstrated that over the pH15min range 6.79 to 5.85, carcases with the lowest pH15min values had the shortest sarcomeres, the highest cooking losses and the toughest meat. In addition, there was no evidence to support the occurrence of cold shortening within this population. This suggests that an early onset of rigor at higher temperatures in broiler carcases, as well as inducing rigor shortening and toughness, might also induce greater protein denaturation and subsequent loss of water holding capacity as manifested in increased cooking losses. 4. Quadratic regression curves showed that over the pH15min range 6.80 to 6.30, only the fast chilling regimen at -12 degrees C could inhibit rigor shortening and minimise changes in cooking loss and shear force values. However, neither chilling regimen was effective in preventing severe rigor shortening, increased cooking losses and adverse toughness in carcases with pH15min values below 6.30. 5. The benefits of fast chilling carcases with pH15min values above 6.3 can also be quantified in terms of carcases exceeding a 4.00 kg/cm2 toughness threshold. Only 1.9% of these carcases chilled at -12 degrees C exceeded this limit (maximum shear force value of 4.72 kg/cm2) compared to 34.9% of the carcases chilled at 0 degrees C (maximum shear force value of 8.46 kg/cm2), further emphasising the considerable reduction in textural variability and improvement in tenderness gained by fast air-chilling at -12 degrees C.  相似文献

To develop a live virus vaccine for the prevention of bovine respiratory syncytial (BRS) virus infection in calves, an attempt was made to produce an attenuated virus. The RS-52 strain of BRS virus, isolated from the nasal secretions of a naturally infected calf, was subjected to serial passages in adult hamster lung established (HAL) cells at 30 degrees C and the attenuated rs-52 strain as a live virus vaccine was established. The rs-52 strain multiplied better at 30 degrees C than at 34 or 37 degrees C in HAL cells. The differences in the highest virus titers of this strain between the culture temperature of 30 degrees C and that of 34 or 37 degrees C were more than 2.25 log TCID50. Colostrum-deprived newborn calves and 2 approximately 4 months old calves inoculated with the rs-52 strain manifested no abnormal clinical sings at all. However, all inoculated calves produced serum neutralization antibody. When the colostrum-deprived newborn calves immunized with the rs-52 strain were challenged with the virulent NMK7 strain of BRS virus, they exhibited no pyrexia or other abnormal clinical signs at all. An attempt was made to recover the virus from nasal secretions of these calves, but in vain. On the other hand, a nonimmunized control colostrum-deprived newborn calf developed slight fever, mild cough, and slight serous nasal discharge after challenge exposure. The virus was recovered from nasal secretions of this calf. From these results, it was considered that the rs-52 strain could be used as an attenuated live virus vaccine for prevention of BRS virus infection.  相似文献

Stability of bovine leukemia virus glycoprotein 51 and nonglycosylated protein 24 antigens was examined under various conditions. The glycoprotein antigen was unstable at 56 degrees C and 37 degrees C and at acidic and basic pH. The specificity of the glycoprotein 51 antigen was reduced to half by the first treatment with ethyl ether, but was not decreased further by repeated treatments. This antigen was not inactivated with triton X-100 and was resistant to lyophilization as well as to freezing and thawing. The protein 24 antigen was generally very stable under all conditions tested.  相似文献
