Antibodies to malignant catarrhal fever virus in cattle with non-wildebeest-associated malignant catarrhal fever.
Sera from 48 cattle with non-wildebeest-associated malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) were assayed for antibodies to wildebeest-associated MCF virus. Significant titres were found in 38 sera and these reactions appeared to be specific. Some cases of non-wildebeest-associated MCF may be caused by an agent antigenically related to MCFV.
