Newcastle disease (ND) is acute respiratory disease with high mortality in chicken and pet birds. Two ostriches aged on 51 days old submitted had showed clinical signs of severe torticolis and poor locomotion. In gross, fibrinous air-sacculitis and hemorrhagic enteritis were present. The significant lesions were histopathologically lymphocytic encephalitis such as perivascular cuffings and gliosis in neuropil. The velogenic ND virus was isolated ftom 10 day-old embryonated eggs inoculated with hemogenized cecal tonsils. These results suggest that NO occurred in the ostrich in Korea.

Since the first outbreaks of Newcastle disease ( ND) in Korea was reported in 1927, the disease has been a major problem in Korean poultry industry. Several attempts related ND prevention and controls have been tried and significantly reduced the ND outbreaks. However, recently frequencies of ND outbreaks have been increased throughout the country since 1988. Many assumptions such as variances of ND virus pathogenicity, decreased efficacy of ND vaccine, incorrect vaccination program etc, has been issued and discussed. Therefore, to clearly understand this recent situation of ND outbreaks in Korea, we reviewed all available past informations related with ND outbreaks in Korea and compared the virulence of recently isolated ND viruses with that of a reference one. Also, we discussed about some problems related with serological diagnosis. administration methods of vaccine and vaccination program.

A single inoculation of combined vaccines of Newcastle disease and avian infectious bronchitis of chicken, in a form of gel-oil emulsion type (gel-OEV) was tested their immunogenecity in chickens. The results were summerized as follows: 1. Average minimum and maximum ELISA antibody titers of ND were recorded 2407 and 13144 respectively. In the case of IB, 1824 and 4496 were recorded as minimum and maximum titers. 2. The distribution of average proportional groups, in the lowest and the highest, were 1.6 and 7.0 in ND ELISA and 1.4 and 2.8 in IB ELISA antibody titers. 3. ND ELISA antibody titers were significantly increased upto 7th week after the vaccination. On the other hand, IB ELISA antibody titers were raised upto 4th week after the vaccination.

This Study was conducted to determine vaccination programs for the control of Newcastle Disease(ND) in chickens and investigate protective effect against Newcastle disease virus (NDV) after live ND vaccination. Maternal HI antibody titer level of chickens according to day(age) 1, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 were decreased gradually as 7.10$\pm$0.74, 6.57$\pm$0.74, 3.71$\pm$1.25, 2.20$\pm$1.03, 1.20$\pm$1.23 and 0.50$\pm$0.71. As a result of HI test and ELISA, both chickens vaccinated with VG/GA strain live vaccine at 1-day-old and chickens not vaccinated do not have antibody titer for protection against NDV at 14-day-old. Except for LaSota strain vaccine, in case of vaccination with VG/GA spray and VG/GA, B1 and LaSota strain drinking water at 14-day-old, the protective effect was 100% in chickens inoculated NDV($10^{7.2}$ $EID_{50}$/50${\mu}\ell$, eye drop) at 21-day-old, but not 10～50% at 28-day-old. These data suggest that live NDV vaccination should be given at 10-day-old 20-25day-old for protect against NDV at periodic outbreaks of ND caused by velogenic viscerotropic NDV in the environment of a farm.

Serum samples collected from 30 breeders and their progeny 30 chicks. The antibodies against infectious bronchitis(IB), infectious bursal disease (IBD) and Newcastle disease(ND) viruses were detected by ELISA using commercial ELISA kit. The breeders were vaccinated against IB, IBD and ND viruses according to general vaccination program. Geometric mean titers(GMT) of ELISA were monitored from 1-day old to 17-day old chicks and compared with breeder chickens. The GMT of ELISA to IB, IBD and ND were declined half level of the breeder antibody titer at 6-, 8- and 7-day old. And, the GMT of ELISA to IB, IBD and ND were declined than that of protective titer at 6-, 1-, and 4-day old. Thereafter, the GMT of ELISA was declined and disappeared according to ages of chicks. Taken together, this study led to conclusion that time-course of maternal antibody titers of chicks from vaccinated breeders, and this is very important data for vaccination to chicks.

This study was conducted to determine whether the vaccination programs for the control of Newcastle disease(ND) would affect the immune status of Ogol chicken in Yeonsan, Chungnam province. The results obstained are summerized as followes ; 1. Maternal antibody titers level of Ogol chickes was 2 $log_2$. 2. The efficacy of the Newcastle spray and drinking water vaccine was evaluated by the antibody responses and the protection rates(over 90% ) after challenge with a virulent Newcastle disease vims at 14 days. 3. Spray vaccine caused on visible side reaction like respiratory symptoms, but it is declined of the 4~5 days.

뉴캣슬병은 19세기중엽부터 뉴캣슬병 (ND)의 발생이 있었던 것으로 추측하고 있으나 영국에서 1926년 Doyle$^{62}$ 에 의해서 처음으로 발생보고 된 이내 오늘에 이르기까지 ND는 세계적으로 널리 발생되고 있을 뿐만 아니라 앞으로도 거의 근절되지 않고 계독존재하면서 양계에 많은 피해를 줄 것으로 예상된다. 이와 같이 세계적으로 분포되어 있을 뿐만 아니라 많은 학자들은 이병과 이병의 원인체인 Newcastle disease virus(NDV)에 관한 연구가 이루어져 왔었다. (중략)

The present experiment was carried out to study the pathogenesis of Newcastle disease(ND), ND virus (NDV) antigens and genes in various organs from NDV inoculated chickens were detected by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. Immunohistochemically, NDV antigens were detected in the spleen, thymus, cecal tonsil, proventriculus, trachea and lungs at 12 hour post-inoculation (hpi). Viral antigens were localized mainly in the cytoplasm of lymphocytes and macrophages. After 48 hpi, clinical findings of the affected chickens were open-mouth breathing, conjunctivitis, watery diarrhea and edema around the eye and neck. After 72 hpi, chickens showed muscular tremor, paralysis of the legs and wings, and coma. Histopathological results consist of multi-focal necrosis with hemorrhages in lymphoid aggregates of the intestinal tracts, necrosis of the lymphoid tissues, neuronal degeneration and necrosis, and perivascular cuffing. Using RT-PCR, virus genes were detected in the spleen and proventriculus at 48 hpi, and in the brain at 60 hpi.

Serum samples were collected from 100 breeders and their progeny 600 broilers. The breeders and broilers were vaccinated against infectious bronchitis(IB), infectious bursal disease(IBD) and Newcastle disease(ND) viruses according to general vaccination program. The antibodies in serum samples against IB, IBD and ND viruses were detected by ELISA using commercial ELISA kit. Geometric mean titer(GMT) of ELISA was monitored from 1-day-old to 35-day-old broilers and compared to that of breeder chickens. The GMT of ELISA to IB, IBD and ND was declined half level of the day old broiler's antibody titers at about 4, 9 and 4 days of age. The GMT of ELISA to IB, IBD and ND was declined than that of protective antibody titer at about 12, 11, and 15 days of age. Thereafter, the GMT of ELISA to IB, ND were declined and disappeared according to age of broilers. The GMT of ELISA to IBD was declined according to age of broilers, but at 25 days of age increased and 31 days of age increased than that of protective antibody titer. Taken together, these studies led to conclusion that time-course of antibody titers of broilers from vaccinated breeders and that of progeny broliers which vaccinated according to vaccine program. Those are very important data to design vaccine program to breeders and broilers.

Hemagglutination inhibition(HI) titers of Newcastle disease(ND) were measured to investigate the vaccination times on three different species of broiler chicks in Chonbuk province. Each 330 of Cobb, Ross and White-semi broiler chicks were selected from 11 broiler farms. The primary vaccine were sprayed in hatchery at one day old chicks. Secondary and tertiary vaccine were used by drinking water at 7 to 24 days old chicks. The ND antibody titer were measured by HI from each different species of broiler chicks at the marketing date. Total average HI titers of Cobbs vaccinated with primary ones, secondary and tertiary ones were recorded 1.86, 1.52 and 2.76, respectively. The antibody titers were shown to 2.22, 2.13, 3.07 in terms of vaccination of Ross broiler chicks. They were also 2.56, 2.65 and 2.78 in terms of vaccination of White-semi broiler chicks. The value HI titer were not statistically different of all treatments. The results of this experiment suggested that HI titer of sera is scored less than defensive value of ND antibody titer at more than two times of vaccination.
