Abstract
Data over a period of eleven years was analysed for Infectious Bursal Disease (IBD) virus isolated from chicken samples submit ted to the Regional Veterinary Laboratory at Bukit Tengah Malaysia (RVLBT) for diagnosis. A total of 247 suspect IBD cases were tested by Virology Section RVLBT between years of 2006 to 2016. IBD virus has been isolated by using Agar Gel Precipitation Test (AGPT) a bursal homogenate which has been used as an antigen against a known positive antiserum. About 27 cases (11) from a total of 247 suspect cases in chickens were positive for the presence of IBD. The rate of IBD may be influenced by age of chickens with an increase in the possibility of IBD occurring in chicken older than 3 weeks. Apart from that both broiler and local chickens are highly susceptible to this disease. Therefore awareness on the existing IBD cases indicates the importance of strict management procedures proper management programmes vaccination and immunisation for chickens in Malaysia.
