Diagnosis of Equine Infectious Anemia

The terms, acute, subacute, chronic and relapsing types have been used to classify EIA cases. These types have been correlated with clinical and pathological observations. The acute and subacute types have sevet·e clinical symptoms and are often followed by death while the chronic type is identified by the occurrence of intermittent febrile attacks in a sut·viving case of the disease and with m...

Equine infectious anemia virus in China

Equine infectious anemia is an equine disease caused by equine infectious anemia virus, which was first reported in 1840. Equine infectious anemia virus research in China started in the 1960s, focusing on etiology, pathology, diagnosis, and immunology. Notably, in 1978 an attenuated vaccine was successfully developed for equine infectious anemia virus, effectively preventing equine infectious a...

Equine Infectious Anemia or Swamp Fever.

INFECTIOUS ANEMIA, or swamp fever, also known in some sections of the United States as malarial fever, slow fever, and mountain fever, is one of the most serious maladies of the horse, and because of its insidious nitture and widespread distribution it has become a problem of world-wide concern. Infectious anemia is an acute or chronic disease of equines, caused by a filtrable virus that poison...

Electron microscopy of equine infectious anemia virus.

Equine infectious anemia (EIA) virus was observed in thin sections of infected cultured horse leukocytes by electron microscopy. The virus particles had a spherical shape and were between 80 and 120 nm in diameter. Most of them contained an electron-dense nucleoid 40 to 60 nm in diameter. They were observed to form by a process of budding from the plasma membrane and appeared to have thin surfa...

Hemagglutination by equine infectious anemia virus.

Equine infectious anemia (EIA) virus which was propagated on an equine dermal cell line agglutinated guinea pig erythrocytes. Viral fluids containing about 10(7.5) mean tissue culture infective doses/ml showed hemagglutinating (HA) titers ranging from 16 to 32 units/0.05 ml. Results of cesium chloride equilibrium density gradient centrifugation revealed that the hemagglutinin was inseparable fr...
