Ultrastructure of Hamster Kidney Cell Culture Infected with Herpesvirus

Farouk Hamdy a,1, Stanley C Holt a, Martin Sevoian a
PMCID: PMC414988  PMID: 4842129

Abstract

Hamster kidney cell culture was found susceptible to infection and replication of herpesvirus of turkey (HVT) as evidenced by cytopathic effect, induction of HVT-specific, complement-fixing antigen, and demonstration of virus particles by electron microscopy. Viral structures at different developmental stages were observed. Several infected cells showed a lamellar inclusion body possibly continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum. The function of these lamellar bodies is not known.
