Results from the first measurements at the crystal structure analysis beamline (BL02B1) at SPring-8 are presented. The capabilities of this beamline are also discussed.
Ferrets experimentally infected by various routes with pseudorabies virus were examined for gross and microscopic lesions. Nonsuppurative meningoencephalomyelitis, as well as visceral lesions, occurred. The incubation period seemed related to the viral dose and to the distance between the inoculation site and the central nervous system. The distribution of the lesions in the central nervous system appeared to be closely related to the peripheral nerve pathways from the inoculation sites. Other findings indicated that the lymphohematogenous route could have a role in the dissemination of the virus in infected ferrets.
