Title: Marek's disease virus and herpesvirus of turkey noninfective to chickens, obtained by repeated in vitro passages. Author: Konobe T, Ishikawa T, Takaku K, Ikuta K, Kitamoto N, Kato S. Journal: Biken J; 1979 Sep; 22(3):103-7. PubMed ID: 231437. Abstract: The relation between the passage level of Marek's disease virus, C2 strain, and of herpesvirus of turkey (HVT), O1 strain, in cell culture and the level of the serological response of chickens to these viruses was examined. In both cases the immune response of chickens to these viruses decreased with increase in the number of in vitro passages of virus. Virus was not recovered from chickens inoculated with HVT highly passaged in vitro, which had become a high producer of cell-free virus in vitro, and grew equally well at 37 C and 41 C.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
