Susceptibility of Mammalian (Hamster) Cell Culture to Infection with Herpesvirus of Turkeys

H G Bedigian 1, Martin Sevoian 1
PMCID: PMC380594  PMID: 4341969

Abstract

Herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) infected and replicated in hamster kidney cells as evidenced by cytopathic effects, intranuclear inclusions, and by the presence of herpesvirus particles as seen by electron microscopy. Additional evidence for the presence of HVT in cell cultures was determined by the serum neutralization, complement fixation, and the fluorescent-antibody tests.
