Serological evidence of infection with a coronavirus related to transmissible gastroenteritis virus and porcine epidemic diarrhea virus 1992-04-30 .txt text/plain 2681 151 57 Abstract Antibodies to a transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV)-related coronavirus have been demonstrated in mink sera by indirect immunofluorescence, peroxidase-linked antibody assays and immunoblotting. The present paper provides the first serological evidence for infection in mink with a coronavirus (here designated MCV) serologically related to TGEV and PEDV. Initially, mink sera were examined in IFAT using acetone fixed monolayers of secondary swine kidney cells infected with TGEV as substrate and FITCconjugated protein-A to detect specific binding of antibodies to TGEV. A high-titered mink antiserum and representative high-titered antisera against TGEV, PRCV, CCV, FIPV and PEDV were selected for further studies of the serological relationship of the putative mink coronavirus to other coronaviruses. The present study has shown that infection with a coronavirus serologically related to TGEV and PEDV is common in the Danish mink population. ./cache/cord-280183-fxhkfjl6.txt ./txt/cord-280183-fxhkfjl6.txt
