title: Susceptibility of a line of dolphin kidney cell culture to several herpesviruses.
abstract: A cell line was established from cell cultures of kidney cortex of a pantropical spotted dolphin, Stenella attenuate. The replication of 6 strains of herpesviruses was studied in the cells. Five strains of them, herpes simplex virus type I and type II, equine rhinopneumonitis virus, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus and Aujeszky's disease virus, were grown fairly well in showing clear cytopathic effects and plaques under agar overlay medium.
