Antibody production in milk serum after virus instillation of goat mammary gland VI. "Sham infection" with special reference to rabies.

The ERA strain of rabies vaccine virus failed to propagate or cause clinical manifestations when instilled into the mammary gland of lactating goats. However, the virus did produce neutralizing antibodies in this gland as a result of repetitive viral stimulation, a "sham infection". The protective property of the concentrated and partly purified milk serum antibody was assessed in mice. In the first trial, protective activity was observed when a single dose of milk serum antibody was administered at intervals up to three days after exposure to virulent rabies virus. In the second trial, using a more concentrated milk serum antibody, about half of the mice were protected when the milk serum was administered up to ten days after exposure to virulent virus.

Decay of influenza A viruses of human and avian origin.

The decay rate of six strains of Influenza virus Type A of human origin and eight strains of avian origin were examined in aerosol form under fixed conditions of temperature and humidity. Strains of avian origin were demonstrated to have greater resistance to decay of viability.

Myxovirus influenza A isolated from ducklings.

A strain of haemagglutinating virus isolated by Walker and Bannister in 1953 and identified by them as "Filterable Agent" of ducks has been examined. The evidence suggests that although belonging to the Myxovirus Influenza Type A group, it possesses specific strain properties.
