  • Patent number: 5554525
    Abstract: The invention is related to a nucleic acid sequence containing the genetic information of the chicken anemia virus (CAV). Especially, three genomic regions are identified encoding viral polypeptides. Said regions or polypeptides can be used for the preparation of a vaccine against CAV infection or for diagnostic purposes. The invention is also concerned with a test kit useful for the detection of CAV infected chickens.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 20, 1992
