During the propagation of A (H3N2) influenza virus in chick embryos, incorporation of 3H-thymidine into virions takes place, whereas no such incorporation occurs with Newcastle disease virus. Incorporation of 3H-thymidine is a result of DNA synthesis. This virion-associated DNA is present in cores obtained after treatment of virions with bromelain.

The conditions of a rapid, indirect-enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV) antibodies have been established. Optimal sensitivity was obtained using 10 micrograms/ml protein concentration of the Mass 41 strain purified from infected allantoic fluid. Specificity was demonstrated with Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) antigen-antibody system. Negligible crossreactions were observed. After bromelain or lipase treatment IBV had an ELISA reactivity similar to untreated particles suggesting that peripheral constituents of IBV play a minor role when whole virus is absorbed on solid phase. The method offers a simple and specific antibody assay which could be used for the laboratory diagnosis of avian infectious bronchitis.
