Multiplication of bovine parvovirus in two cell strains.
Bovine parvovirus has been found to infect two cell strains: buffalo lung fibroblasts and embryonic bovine tracheal cells. Infectivity titers were best determined by plaque assays. Immunofluorescence studies revealed intranuclear staining, whereas complement fixation tests confirmed bovine parvovirus antigen production. These cell strains represent economical and convenient cell types which can be used in studies on bovine parvovirus.
