A B S T R A C T Diagnosis of the BVDV infection among suspected and apparently healthy cattle at Kaluobia, Giza, Menofeia and Gharbia governorates was done by detection of prevalence of BVD antibodies. A total number of 151/151(100%) and 97/151 (62.25%) of examined sera were positive for BVD antibodies using serum neutralization test (SNT) and competitive immunoenzymatic assay (cIEA), respectively. Examined sera with cIEA detected antibodies against BVDV non structral proteins P80/P125. Detection of BVDV in buffy coat samples using antigen capture ELISA showed that 22/151(14.56%) of the samples were positive for BVDV. Isolation and biotyping of suspected BVDV from buffy coat on MDBK cell line showed that 19/22 of ELISA positive buffy coat samples were cytopathogenic BVDV biotype (cpBVDV) while only 3/22 samples were CPE negative suggesting a non- cytopathogenic BVDV (ncpBVDV) biotype. Inoculated cell culture with no CPE were subjected to IFAT and IPMA using specific antisera against BVDV revealed positive results indicating presence of non-cytopathogenic strain of BVDV. It was concluded that cIEA detected antibodies against non- structural proteins P80/P125 has many advantages over SNT being for rapid diagnosis of BVDV.

October is the perfect time to visit Egypt – with cooler temperatures and bright clear days. A highlight of the program is an exclusive opportunity to go “mano-a-mano” with the Sphinx. Vanderbilt travelers are granted behind-the-scenes access to the Sphinx Paws in the quarry from which it was carved in 2500 BCE! This will put you face to face with the famous Dream Stela of Pharaoh Thutmosis IV that tells the story of the king as a young boy taking a rest in the shadow of the Sphinx. Also featured is a private visit to Queen Nefertari’s Tomb, considered to be the most beautiful of all the Egyptian tombs. Nefertari was Ramses II’s favorite wife and he ordered a tomb built to guarantee her eternal status. The selection of hotels in this program is extraordinary. Two that will take your breath away are the Four Seasons Nile Plaza in Cairo and the Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Hotel in Aswan, originally built by the British in 1902. Esteemed guests have included Tsar Nicholas II, Winston Churchill, Howard Carter, Margaret Thatcher, Princess Diana, Queen Noor and Agatha Christie, who wrote much of her novel Death on the Nile at the hotel.

These samples were Coxiella burnetii collected from apparently healthy cows (n=300) from Giza, Fayoum and Beni Suief ELISA Governorates. Real-time PCR for detection of C. burnetii DNA was performed on samples IFT using two individual PCR assays with specific primers and probes to increase specificity of the result using Roche kits. IFAT revealed detection of 6% IgM antibodies in milk and 7.3% in PCR sera. While IgG was 10.6% of milk and 24% in sera. The main value of positive samples by ELISA test were 25.7%; in serum 34% and in milk 17.3%. These results showed that sensitivity Received 23/02/2020 and specificity of the ELISA test and IFAT were highly comparable. The result of Real time Accepted 27/03/2020 PCR from 77 positive samples of C. burnetii was 45.4%.
