본 연구는 송아지 설사병의 주요원인체 중 소로타바이러스(bovine rotavirus; BRV)와 소코로나바이러스(bovine coronavirus; BCV)에 대한 난황항체를 생산하고 이의 면역 특이성을 확인하고자 실험을 실시하였으며, BRV 및 BCV를 2주 간격으로 5회 산란계에 근육주사를 실시하여 혈청과 난황내의 특이 항체 형성 유무를 확인하였다. 실험 6주차에 면역한 산란계로부터 획득한 혈청을 이용하여 교차반응 시험을 실시한 결과, BRV 및 BCV를 면역하여 얻은 혈청은 각각 BRV 및 BCV 항원과만 특이적인 결합반응을 보였다. 면역에 따른 혈청항체 및 난황항체의 수준은 실험 8~12주차에 최고도에 달했고, BRV에 대한 항체의 경우 혈청과 난황내에서 면역 후 12주째에 각각 약 104,000과 107,000의 역가 수준을 보였으며, BCV의 경우 8주째에 각각 약 145,000과 155,000의 수준을 보였다. BRV 및 BCV에 대한 중화능력 유무 확인을 위하여 분리된 난황항체를 이용하여 혈구응집억제반응 시험을 실시한 결과, BRV 및 BCV에 대한 혈구응집억제 희석비가 각각 5,120 및 1,260으로 면역하지 않은 대조군에 비하여 8배 이상 높은 중화력을 나타냈다. 이러한 결과를 종합하면, 산란계에 BRV 및 BCV를 면역하여 얻어진 난황항체는 BRV 및 BCV에 대한 면역 특이성을 가지고 중화할 수 있는 능력이 있으며, 이러한 난황항체는 BRV 및 BCV의 증식을 효과적으로 억제시킬 수 있어 임상에 적용할 경우 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

The bovine rotavirus(BRV), bovine coronavirus(BCV) and bovine viral diarrhea virus(BVDV) are main viruses of bovine viral diarrhea disease. These viruses could be rapidly amplified by the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). This study was conducted to develop rapid and accurate diagnostic methods of these viral diseases by multiplex RT-PCR. Specific primers were designed based on the sequences reported by Chang KO et. al. (1997) and Schroeder BA, et. al. (1990), RNA were prepared from the cultured viruses, first-stranded DNAs were synthesised by reverse transcriptase. PCR were conducted to amplify specific regions of the viruses by multiplex. Three bands such as 1,062bp for BRV, 458bp for BCV, and 300bp for BVDV were successfully produced by multiplex RT-PCR. In conclusion, this result suggested that these viruses could be diagnosed rapidly and accurately by multiplex RT-PCR.

The nonstructural protein NSP4, encoded by gene 10 of rotavirus, has been shown to playa role in viral assembly and known to be an enterotoxin, causing diarrhea in mouse pups. NSP4 gene was cloned from CBNU-2 (virulent bovine rotavirus/diarrheic fecal sample) and CBNU-1 (cell-culture adapted bovine rotavirus/isolated from CBNU-2 and 75 times passaged on MA104 cells), respectively, by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and sequenced and compared. The sequence data indicated that the NSP4 genes of bovine rotavirus (BRV) were 751 bases in length and encoded one open reading frame of 175 amino acids beginning at base 42 and terminating at base 569. Differences in nucleotide sequence between CBNU-2 and CBNU-1 were observed at 6 positions (base 274, 296, 391, 394, 396 and 579). NSP4 gene of BRV exhibited a high degree of nucleotide (90% and 94%) and amino acid sequence (91% and 97%) homology with those of SA11 and UK but a low degree of nucleotide (77% and 79%) and amino acids sequence (81% and 85%) homology with those of Wa and OSU.

From July to December 2022, we investigated the incidence of enteric pathogens causing diarrhea in calves under 100 days old at 22 farms across Korea. A total of 354 calves (including 247 dairy calves and 107 Korean native calves) were included. We used commercially available rapid diagnostic kits to identify five enteric pathogens, including bovine rotavirus (BRV), bovine coronavirus (BCoV), Cryptosporidium. Escherichia coli (E. coli), and Giardia. This study investigated how factors such as age, season, and birth month, which can influence the incidence of intestinal pathogens, affect the incidence of these pathogens in diarrheic dairy calves and Korean native calves. Our study found that the incidence of diarrhea-causing pathogens differed between dairy and Korean native calves. In diarrheic dairy calves, bovine rotavirus (BRV) incidence rates, correlated with season and birth month. Similarly, Cryptosporidium incidence C were associated with age and season, while Giardia incidence rates varied by season and birth month. Korean native calves, on the other hand, exhibited seasonal and birth month-related variations in BRV incidence rates, with Cryptosporidium incidence rates influenced by birth month.

Among calves' diseases, digestive diseases most frequently occur in Korea, and especially viral diarrhea is one of the most important diseases. This study was conducted to get some basic information for the control of the viral diarrhea in calves. The samples were obtained from 319 calves with clinical diarrhea from 195 farms in Gyeongnam south area (Gosung, Tongyung, Hadong) from June 2005 to August 2006, Viral detection was examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Etiological viruses were detected from 171(53,6%) of 319 calves, and bovine rotavirus (BRV) were 130 (40,8%) and bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) 41 (12,9%), and no coronavirus was confirmed, Statistical difference was found in BRV detection between summer (32.6%) and winter (57.7%). However there was no seasonal difference in BVDV. In detection rate of the calves under 19days, BRV was highest (55.1%), but BVDV lowest (5.1%). No big difference was in rate among herd size. However, BRV was lowest (26.8%) in the group over 51 heads, but BVDV was highest (19.5%) in the same.

로타바이러스는 유아와 어린 포유동물에 있어서 위장염을 일으키는 원인체로서 다양한 혈청형에 의해 발병되기 때문에 효과적인 백신 개발이 되지 않고 있다. 본 연구는 국내 분리 한우송아지 로타바이러스 S97과 JBR(Jeju island bovine rotavirus)에 $textsc{k}$-casein, GMf, sialic acid를 첨가하여 MA-104세포에 감염시켰을 때 그 억제 효과를 규명하기 위해 시행하였다. 한우송아지 로타바이러스 597과 JBR을 무혈청 Ml99배지의 MA-104세포에 감염시켜 37$^{\circ}C$에서 6일간 회전 배양하여 활성화시킨 다음, 로타바이러스 역가를 분석하였고, MA-104 세포에 활성화된 BRV를 감염시키고, $textsc{k}$-casein, GMP sialic acid를 각각 농도에 따라 첨가하여 15시간 배양한 다음 AEC 염색법으로 염색시켜 현미경 상에서 감염된 세포수를 계산하였다. 한우송아지 로타바이러스 S97과 GMR의 역가는 각각 2.5$\times$107과 2.0$\times$106 PFU/ml이었다. $textsc{k}$-casein, GMP의 농도 20001M에서 S97의 세포감염율은 97.4%와 97.44%로 나타났고, $textsc{k}$-casein, GWP의 농도 2000$\mu$M에서 JBR의 세포감염 억제율은 99.52%와 99.78%로 나타났다. Sialic acid의 농도 2000$\mu$M에서의 S97과 JBR의 세포감염 억제율은 3.85%와 3.63%로 나타났다. $textsc{k}$-casein, CU는 로타바이러스 S97과 JBR에 대해 농도 2000UM에서 97%이상의 억제효과를 나타냈으며, sialic acid는 억제효과가 거의 없었다. K-casein, GMP는 송아지뿐만 아니라 유아의 로타바이러스에 의한 설사를 억제할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used for the detection of bovine coronavirus (BCV) in fecal samples by using reverse transcriptase and two primers which flanked M gene sequence of 407bp. RT-PCR detected bovine coronavirus specifically, but did not detect mouse hepatitis virus (MHV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), and bovine rotavirus (BRV). The M gene sequences of MHV are homologus to that of BCV, but minor differences exist in the primer regions, preventing annealing of the primers. Detection of BCV using RT-PCR was compared with ELISA and the agreement of BCV detection by RT-PCR and ELISA was 95.3%. RNA detection in positive clinical specimens was significantly better by PCR than immunological detection of BCV by ELISA.

Between February 2020 and September 2021, 378 calves with diarrhea were investigated across 96 cattle breeding farms in Korea, using a rapid diagnostic kit. The study examined the infection rates of major pathogens causing diarrhea in calves, which were categorized by season, age, birth month, and region. Additionally, logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the factors affecting the infection rate. The study found that the five representative pathogens causing calf diarrhea exhibited differences in infection rates based on season, region, age, and birth month. Bovine rotavirus, bovine coronavirus, Cryptosporidium, and Giardia commonly exhibited varying risks of infection based on season and age. Furthermore, in addition to these risk factors, bovine rotavirus and Cryptosporidium were found to impact the infection risk of each pathogen by region, while Giardia was found to be affected by birth month.

Sera from 304 Holsteins or Korean native cattle were collected from slaughterhouse in Kwangju area to study the infection of major virus-borne diseases. Serum antibody titers against infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus(IBRV), bovine viral diarrhea virus(BVDV), parainfluenza type-3 virus(PI-3V), bovine ephemeral fever virus(BEFV), bovine Ibaraki virus(BIV), bovine Akabane virus(BAKV), bovine rotavirus(BRV), bovine coronavirus(BCV) were measured by serum neutralization tests. Results which obtained were as follows. Sera from 280 cattle(92.1%) contained antibodies against BRV which rate was the highest among the 8 viruses, and serum antibodies against BCV, BVDV, BIV, BAKV, BEFV, IBRV and PI-3V were detected from 266(87.5%), 149(49%), 108(35.5%), 94(30.9%), 80(26.3%), 32(10.5%) and 24(7.9%) cattle, respectively. Prevalence of seropositives to BVDV, BIV, BAKV, BEFV were higher among Holsteins than among the Korean native cattle(P<0.05). Prevalence of antibody titers against BVDV, BIV and BEFV in Korean native cattle were higher among females than males, while more males contained antibodies to BAKV, IBRV and PI-3V than females in their blood(P<0.05). Seropositives to BVDV, BIV, BAKV, BEFV and IBRV in Holsteins were higher among females than males(P<0.05). In Korean native cattle, serum antibody titers against IBRV and PI-3V ranged from 1:2~1:32 and 1:2~1:64, respectively, while serum antibody titers against the rest 6 viruses ranged from $1:2{\sim}1:{\geq}256$. In Holsteins, serum antibody titers against IBRV and PI-3V ranged from 1:2~1:64 and 1:2~1:32, respectively, while serum antibody titers against the rest 6 viruses ranged from $1:2{\sim}1:{\geq}256$.
