A Rabies Virus Persistent Infection in BHK21 Cells

A rabies virus persistent infection in BHK21 cells.

A rabies virus persistent infection in BHK21 S13 cells was established and maintained in culture for more than 4 years. Initially, the cultures produced a large plaque virus similar to that produced by the original virus, but between the 10th and 20th passage, this was replaced by a small plaque variant. By the 200th passage, infectious virus could no longer be detected in the medium. After fur...

Persistent bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection in cattle herds

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a significant pathogen associated with gastrointestinal, respiratory, and reproductive diseases of cattle worldwide. It causes continuous economic losses to the cattle industry primarily due to decreased reproductive performance. The ability of virus to cross the placenta during early pregnancy can result in the birth of persistently infected (PI) calves. P...

Measles-virus-persistent infection in BGM cells

In BGM cells chronically infected with measles virus, although the composition of the phospholipids is unaltered, the fatty acid composition is modified. Uninfected, lytic and persistently infected cells were labelled with [3Hlarachidonic acid and ['4C]stearic acid and their metabolic fate analysed. No difference in the total incorporation was observed in the different systems. However, the ["4...

A Study on the Ocular Infection with Rabies Virus in Mouse

Introduction: The most common mode of rabies virus transmission is through a bite wound or contact of broken skin with saliva of a rabid animal. Various other routes of virus transmission include exposure of mucous membranes (i.e. eyes, nose, and mouth) to infected saliva of a rabid animal, aerosol transmission, and corneal transplantation. Laboratory workers during work with rabies virus and v...
