Protein toxicity tests were carried out on rabbits.The VP2 gene of infectious bursal virus was amplified by RT-PCR, and lately used for pET-VP2 construction. Ten-day-old free healthy chickens were chosen for a grouped test, including the mLTA-CTLA-4(at different doses) plus VP2 groups, IBDV living vaccine group and control group. Serum and mucosal samples were collected regularly and the neutralization titers of IgG and IgA were assayed, while an animal protection test was conducted to determine the protection rate. The results showed that the protein m LTA-CTLA-4 was non-toxic and its protection rate was100%. IgG or IgA levels in the IBDV vaccine group were slightly higher than those in recombinant protein groups. These results indicated that the recombinant protein mLTA-CTLA-4 could be applied with IBDV subunit vaccine to protect chickens from infection.展开更多

The study showed that the graves of the prominent people for their pure life and miraculous deeds, who lived during the Soviet and post-Soviet periods until now are the places of veneration. These people before official canonization became saints for people and as I call them, they became “folk Saints”, as the forms of their veneration are the same as canonized ones. After post-Soviet revival of religiousness in the late 1970es, one form of pilgrimage became especially popular in the Orthodox Church of Georgia. On the memorial days of Saints or just after Sunday liturgy priest and congregation visit graves of these Saints or prominent churches dedicated to them, where they pray and have small services. The study showed that this form was not traditional Georgian form of pilgrimage, but Russian one. I also argue that there might have been five forms of traditional pilgrimage in Georgia. The study was based on historical sources, published scientific works and the personal field ethnographic materials.展开更多
