title: Embryo transfer from goats seropositive for caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus.
abstract: Twelve attempts were made to isolate caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) from the uterine flushings of serologically positive superovulated does mated to serologically positive bucks. Embryos were transferred to eight serologically negative estrus-synchronized recipient does and the recipients were monitored serologically following embryo transfer. Virus isolation was attempted from colostrum and placental tissues from does that kidded following embryo transfers and the surviving kid was monitored serologically until four months of age. The CAEV was not isolated from any of the uterine flushings, colostrum or placental tissues. All recipients and the kid remained seronegative throughout the trial.
