PMCID: PMC7086888  PMID: 6277284

Summary

The pathogenicity for mice of nine strains of mouse hepatitis virus was studied in mice free from the virus by the intracerebral, intraperitoneal, intravenous and intranasal routes of inoculation.

Keywords: Hepatitis, Infectious Disease, Hepatitis Virus, Virus Strain, Intranasal Route
