  • Title: [Results of identifying ornithosis strains isolated in Tajikistan (author's transl)].
    Author: Sopranenko LG, Degtiarev IuL, Terskikh II.
    Journal: Vopr Virusol; 1975; (5):537-9. PubMed ID: 128906.
    Abstract:
    Studies were carried out aimed at isolation of the causative agent of ornithosis from the organs of pigeons and budgerigars. The present study was based on the results of a serological survey which had revealed a high rate of infection with ornithosis in pigeons as well as a case of ornithosis in an owner of budgerigars. The isolates were identified, their pathogenicity for some animal species was determined; morphological studies were carried out in cell culture; antigens and immune sera were prepared. The results of identification permited allocation of the isolated strains to the agent of ornithosis and confirmed the role of pigeons and parrots in spread of this infection in Tajikistan.
