TI  - [Prevalence of antibodies against the viruses of European swine fever, Aujeszky's 
      disease and "porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome" in wild boars in the 
      federal states Sachsen-Anhalt and Brandenburg].
PG  - 33-8
AB  - During the hunting season from 1991/1992 blood samples were collected from wild 
      boar shot in the Federal States of Sachsen-Anhalt (482 samples) and Brandenburg 
      (177 samples) which corresponds to 2.1 and 0.4% of the total hunting bag. All 
      sera were screened in a complex trapping blocking (CTB) ELISA for antibodies 
      against hog cholera virus (HCV) and in an indirect ELISA for antibodies against 
      Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV). Additionally the sera were tested for 
      neutralizing antibodies against HCV strain ALFORT/187, bovine viral diarrhoea 
      virus (BVDV) strains NADL and 1138/69, and against an ADV field isolate. In case 
      of questionable results sera were tested against HCV strain "BERGEN", HCV vaccine 
      strain "RIEMS" and three HCV field isolates from wild boar. The serological 
      testing for antibodies against "porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome 
      virus" (PRRSV) was carried out in indirect immunoperoxidase monolayer assay 
      (IPMA). Four sera (Sachsen-Anhalt) reacted positive in CTB-ELISA. Seven sera 
      yielded neutralizing antibodies against HCV but only one of the "non-negative" 
      samples scored positive in both techniques, ELISA and VNT. Two sera (Brandenburg) 
      had low neutralizing antibody titres against Alfort/197 but scored negative in 
      CTB-ELISA. Screening for antibodies against ADV of 640 sera led to 13 positive 
      sera including 5 positive findings in both ELISA and VNT. Antibodies against 
      PRRSV were detected in two sera which were collected Sachsen-Anhalt. Estimations 
      resulted in a prevalence of about 5% for antibodies against HCV.
