Abstract

To determine which respiratory viruses circulate among confined dogs, we analyzed nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens from shelter dogs with acute respiratory disease. An unknown virus was isolated. Monoclonal antibody testing indicated that it was probably a pneumovirus. PCR and sequence analysis indicated that it was closely related to murine pneumovirus.

Slides showing immunofluorescence of A72 cells with human respiratory syncytial virus monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). A) MAb 2G122 on infected cells. B) MAb 2G122 on uninfected cells. C) MAb 5H5N on infected cells. D) MAb 5H5N on uninfected cells. Primary MAb stocks were used as obtained from the manufacturer at a dilution of 1:100. The red background is produced by counterstaining with Evans blue dye. Original magnification ×200.
