Title: Experimental Visna in Icelandic lambs. Author: Pálsson PA, Georgsson G, Pétursson G, Nathanson N. Journal: Acta Vet Scand; 1977; 18(1):122-8. PubMed ID: 192064. Abstract: Icelandic lambs were inoculated intracerebrally with visna virus at 10 days of age and sacrificed 22–25 days after infection. Virus was isolated from all 5 inoculated animals, and pronounced periventricular lesions, typical of early visna, were seen in the 3 lambs with the most widespread infection. The response to the infection was very similar to that seen previously in adult Icelandic sheep. In addition, 2 uninoculated lambs housed with the injected animals and sacrificed at the same time also became infected.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
