  • Title: Intrauterine transmission of ovine progressive pneumonia virus.
    Author: Cutlip RC, Lehmkuhl HD, Jackson TA.
    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1981 Oct; 42(10):1795-7. PubMed ID: 6275749.
    Abstract:
    Ovine fetuses, newborn lambs, and ovine colostrum were examined for ovine progressive pneumonia virus. The lambs and colostrum were also examined for specific antibody. Virus was isolated from 1 fetus, from 2 newborn lambs, and from most samples of colostrum. The fetus was about 100 days old and was carried by a seronegative ewe in contact with seropositive sheep. Both newborn lambs were carried by seropositive ewes. One lamb was dead at birth; the other lamb was normal and had not nursed. Antibody specific for the virus was present in the colostrum of 12 of 14 seropositive ewes and in the serum of 8 of 11 lambs that had nursed seropositive ewes, but not in the serum of lambs that had not nursed.
