Lymph nodes (Ln) are the preferred samples for virus isolation and detection. Inthe present study, carcass and visceral Ln of apparently healthy cattle were screened for the presence of bovine herpes virus type 1 (BHV-1) and bovine ephemeral fever virus (BEFV) antigens. A total of 198 Ln (114 carcasses Ln and 84 visceral Ln) were collected. Lymph node homogenates were assayed by agar gel precipitation test (AGPT), rapid Staphyloccocal protein A (SPA) agglutination test and Dot-ELISA. The overall results revealed that BHV-1 antigens were detected in 43.9%, 56.1% and in 68.4% of carcass Ln, and in 29.8%, 47.6% and 57.1% of visceral Ln collected from slaughtered cattle by AGPT, SPA agglutination test and Dot-ELISA respectively. On the other hand, BEFV antigens were detected in 5.3%, 38.6% and 52.6% of carcass Ln, and in 6%, 41.7% and 54.8 % of visceral Ln collected from slaughtered animals by AGPT, rapid SPA agglutination test and Dot-ELISA respectively. The results showed high percentage of positive samples with SPA agglutination test and Dot- ELISA in comparison to AGPT for both BHV-1 and BEF.

Forty-eight pathogen free New Zealand rabbits were divided into two groups, the first group contained eighteen rabbits served as normal control and the second group of thirty rabbits were received 1 ml bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) virus suspension (107 TCID 50) by intraperitoneal route. Rabbits both groups were subjected to hematological, serum biochemical, different serological and histopathological examination 3,7,10,14,21 and 28 days post infection. Clinical observation of infected rabbits showed febrile response and mild conjunctivitis after 24 and 48h. of inoculation, respectively. The hemogram revealed no significant alteration in the erythrogram while leucogram showed leucocytosis accompanied with heterophilia, lymphopenia and monocytopenia at the 3rd and 7th days post infection. Serum biochemical analysis showed significant elevation in the activity of AST, ALT and AP and in blood urea nitrogen and creatinine concentration along the experimental period. Serum total proteins, albumin, :, ; and < globulin significantly increased at different periods of the experiment. BHV-1 antibodies were detected in the sera of infected rabbits by Dot ELISA and ELISA from the first week until the forth week post infection. Histopathological examination revealed that the most affected organs were the trachea, lungs and liver while adrenals, kidneys, and spleen showed mild pathological alterations.
