Abstract Equine influenza virus is a cause of epizootic respiratory. Disease of equine. Thirty nasal swab from horses suffering from respiratory manifestation were tested by reverse transcriptase (RT) PCR using primers specific for HA gene. Primer specificity was tested by using RNA extracted from aminoallantoic fluid infected with local isolate of A / Equi- 2 /Cairo – 2/2000 ( H3 N8). Also virus isolation from previous nasal swabs was performed in specific pathogen free embryonated chicken egg (APF- ECE) and Madin Darby Canine Kidney ( MDCK) cell. The overall viral detection with these methods were 43%, 33% and 26% respectively. RT – PCR proved to be the most sensitive and rapid method for viral detection followed by isolation in ECE and MDK cells
