چکیده

The growth of Rio Bravo virus (RBV) in eight cell culture systems was studied. Highest yields of virus were produced in BHK-21 (C13), L, and Vero cell lines, but L cells were resistant to low doses of virus. LLC-MK(2), HeLa, and human embryo skin cells produced moderate amounts of virus, but FL amnion and primary chick embryo fibroblasts supported little virus growth. Virus was rapidly inactivated by exposure to pH values below 7.0. Single-cycle growth in BHK-21, L, and LLC-MK(2) cell monolayers was characterized by a latent period of about 12 hr followed by rapid virus production that peaked at 36 to 48 hr. Vero cell cultures can remain chronically infected with RBV for more than 100 days. Such cultures show evidence of cell destruction, and their supernatant fluids contain virus at 10(4) to 10(5) log(10) per ml.

Replication Kinetic of Infectious Laryngotracheitis Virus in Embryonic Chicken Neural Stem Cell

Background and Aims: Infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) infection causes a highly contagious respiratory disease in poultry leads to significant economic losses in the poultry industry. The genomic and antigenic characteristics between virulent and vaccine strains of ILTV are very similar. The ability of embryonated chicken neural stem (CNS) cell for differential diagnosis of ILTV strain...
