Agar gel immunodiffusion using IBDV antigen extracted from bursa of Fabricius of infected chicken has been used officially for diagnosis of IBDV in Korea. In this study, in order to replace the IBDV whole virus antigen with non-infectious antigen, recombinant VP2 protein (rVP2) of IBDV was produced using recombinant baculovirus expression system. Purified baculovirus-expressed rVP2 was used as an antigen… Show more
