Virus
Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV)
Infektiöses Bronchitisvirus (IBV)
Aviäres Infektiöses Bronchitisvirus (AIBV)
Avian coronavirus infraspecies Infectious bronchitis virus (AIBV)
Aviäres Coronavirus Infraspezies Aviäres Infektiöses Bronchitisvirus (AIBV)
Strain/Type
Gammacoronavirus (previously group 3)
IBV Beaudette strain
Host tropism
Chicken
Route of Transmission
IBV spreads horizontally among the entire flock through aerosol droplets or ingestion.
Contact with feces and nasal excretions of infected chickens is considered as the major source of viral infection.
The virus can also be transmitted from one flock to another by contaminated drinking water, food and feces.
Indirect transmission occurs via contaminated vehicles, working personnel and equipment.
Characteristics e.g. sensitizing or toxic effects, replication deficiant, not infectious, attenuated, inactivated (upload relevant documents)
Note t2:
Owing to the pathogenicity for vertebrates, safety measures may be necessary under animal disease legislation which, analogous to the safety measures of protection level 2, minimise the escape of prokaryotes into the external environment or other working areas.
Approved as biological safety measure if taken as recipient organism for genetic engineering?
Genetically modified (GenTSV)
Risk group (BioStoffV)

Occupational health care (according to ArbMedVV)
In the case of activities with the biological agent no health care is required. An indication on restrictions for immunosuppressed workers should be made.Storage location of aliquots in the Biolab (just click Bearbeiten in the right corner of the header to add or change information in the table and use the menue in the left header to e.g. add a row)
