Three neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that are specific against bovine herpes virus Type-1 (BHV-1) were studied as to their viral specificity by immunoperoxidase and immunoelectron microscopy. Microscopic examination of GBK BHV-1 infected cells revealed peroxidase activity represented by red-brown granular deposits in the nucleus and cytoplasm. No immunoperoxidase activity was observed in negative controls. For the ultrastructural observations, two approaches were used. Firstly we tested a pre-embedding technique using GBK infected cells, mAbs and gold conjugated-protein A. Gold particles were observed linked to the viral envelopes and to the host cell membrane. Alternatively, a second technique employed BHV-1 purified by potassium tartrate gradients, mAbs and gold conjugated-protein A. After performing the immune reaction, the samples were adsorbed to formvar-coated grids, stained with phosphotungstic acid and observed in a transmission electron microscope. Gold particles were mainly attached to the virion envelope.
