Description
Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large group of enveloped positive-sense RNA viruses. They belong to subfamily Coronavirinae, in the family of Coronaviridae, of the order of Nidovirales. Coronaviruses infect a number of mammalian species such as dogs. Two types of Coronaviruses have been identified in dogs: CCoV type I, and CCoV type II. Both the types of viruses are eligible to be detected in the same dog, however, due to genetic recombination events, CCoV type II is further divided into two sub-types: CCoV type IIa and CCoV type IIb. About 20% of the canine coronavirus infections are of CCoV type I, whereas 44% of the infections are of CCoV type II. Coronavirus infections in dogs are limited to the intestine, and results in only mild enteritis.
Technique
Polyclonal, Antibody, anti-, anti, antibody to, antibodies, antibodies against human proteins, antibodies for, Polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) are mostly rabbit or goat antibodies that are secreted by different B cells, whereas monoclonal antibodies come from a single N cell lineage. Pabs are a collection of immunoglobulin molecules that react against a specific antigen, each identifying a different epitope.
