Susceptibility of Guinea Pig Cell Cultures to Infection with Cell-Bound and Cell-Free Herpesvirus of Turkeys

Cell-bound and cell-free herpesvirus of turkeys infected and replicated in guinea pig cell cultures as evidenced by cytopathic effects, intranuclear inclusions, and the presence of herpesvirus particles as seen by electron microscopy were studied in this investigation. Further evidence for the replication of herpesvirus of turkeys in cell cultures was determined by serum neutralization, complement fixation, and the fluorescent antibody tests
