Foetal infections with bovine viral diarrhoea virus in argentina
The frequency of isolation of bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) from primary tissue cultures and organs from bovine foetuses was studied between 1992 and 1994. Around 25% of primary tissue cultures were BVDV positive. Primär)' testis cultures were inoculated with homogenates of spleen, kidney...
