Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) virus infection was detected by an antibody ELISA in the bulk milk of a large closed dairy herd of high health status in an area of low cattle density in East Anglia. The herd was managed under high standards of biosecurity and was known to have been serologically free of IBR virus for the previous 13 years. Although over 70 per cent of the cows had seroconverted to IBR virus no clinical signs were observed apart from a slight bilateral watery ocular discharge in a few cows, and their performance and productivity were unaffected. The causal virus, which was isolated after it had been reactivated with corticosteroid, had the DNA profile of a bovine herpesvirus type 1 strain normally associated with clinically severe respiratory disease. In spite of extensive enquiries and seroepidemiological investigations the source of the infection was not determined.

Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR) occurs worldwide, requiring significant resources for eradication programs or surveillance purposes. The status of infection is usually detected by serological methods using the virus neutralization test (VNT) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on individual sera. The gE DIVA (Differentiating Infected from Vaccinated Animals) vaccines approach, adopted in order to reduce the virus circulation and prevent clinical signs, have tightened the range of available methods for the serological diagnosis. Different gE blocking ELISA could be performed to detect specific antibodies in sera of infected or whole virus-vaccinated animals but with less sensitivity if applied to bulk milk samples, especially in marker-vaccinated herds. A new rec-gE ELISA was recently developed in Italy and applied with good performances on blood serum samples. The present paper focuses on the application of a rapid protocol for purification/concentration of immunoglobulin G (IgG) from bulk milk and on the use of the new rec-gE indirect ELISA. The study involved three different partners and 225 herds (12,800 lactating cows) with different official IBR diagnostic statuses. The diagnostic specificity of the method was demonstrated closed to 100% while the diagnostic sensitivity was strictly related to the herd-seroprevalence. Considering 2.5% as the limit of detection of within-herd seropositivity prevalence, the diagnostic sensitivity showed by the proposed method was equal to 100%. A single reactivation of a whole strain vaccine in an old cow was detected inside a group of 67 lactating cows, showing the field applicability of the method.
