Description
Summary:This study was carried out to determine serologically the bovine adenovirus (BA V) type 2 infections on 950 cattle blood sera in Konya.<p> The cattle blood sera collected from 950 cattle in Meat and Fish Association's Slaughterhouse in Konya, were subjected to microneutralization test, initially by diluting 1/10, then by diluting them two times and by comparing BAV type 2 viruses with the ratio of 100 DKID<sub>50</sub>1.05 ml.<p> MDBK (Madine Darby Bovine Kidney) cell culture were used in virus production, in titration and in microneutralization test. As a cell medium, Eagle's MEM with % 10 inactivated calf sera and as virus medium Eagle's MEM medium without sera were used.<p> Based on the results the neutralization antibodies were found in 247 sera of the 950 sera against BAV type 2.<p> This study pointed out that the adenovirus infections were prevalent in cattle in Konya.
