title: Experimental infection of rabbits with the virus of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis.
abstract: Adult and newborn rabbits were infected with the LA strain of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus. Adult rabbits developed only mild, self-limiting conjunctivitis, but had microscopic inflammatory foci in the liver and adrenal glands. Newborn rabbits developed a severe, sometimes fatal, generalized infection with focal and diffuse necrosis of the liver and adrenal glands.
