Abstract
Three infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) isolates were adapted to culture in chick embryo fibroblast cells in which they produced a cyto pathic effect. The isolates were identified as IBDV by virus neutraliz ation tests using a standard hyperimmune serum against infectious burs al disease, physicochemical properties and their pathogenicity in chic k embryos and chicks. The IBDV S394 strain was antigenically different from IBDV S194/IBDV S494 as well as from the IBDV Intermediate Georgi a strain, one of the vaccine strains in use in India.
