Three Beaudette strains of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) [two chicken-embryo trachea-culture-adapted (E71CET10 and E71CEK10CET30) and one embryo-adapted (E72)] were propagated in 10-day-old embryonated chicken eggs (CE) to investigate growth and lethality patterns. The E72 and E71CEK10CET30 viruses were similar in growth pattern as to logarithmic phase and maximum virus production, but 95% of the CE mortality with E72 virus occurred between 20 and 32 hours whereas with E71CEK10CET30 60% mortality occurred between 36 and 84 hours. The yield of the E71CET10 virus was minimum, with little lethality.

Serologic response to Haemophilus gallinarum in artifically infected and vaccinated chickens.

Serologic responses to Haemophilus gallinarum (HG) were compared in chickens artifically inoculated with living HG and vaccinated with HG bacterin, using tube agglutination (AGG), hemagglutination-inhibition (HI), and agar-gel precipitation (AGP) tests. Infected and vaccinated chickens differed markedly, as did infection routes early after treatment. HI response was delayed and lower in chickens infected intranasally than in vaccinated chickens. Both AGG and AGP responses peaked sooner than HI. AGP response was earlier in infected chickens, but later in vaccinated chickens. A maximum of three lines were observed. All which appeared for vaccinated chickens were similar to those for inoculated ones. A residual line remaining for very long periods for inoculated and vaccinated chickens appeared near the side of well of the HG antigen. The duration of symptoms following HG infection had no correlation with HI, AGG, and AGP titers. From these results, the HI test seems not to be the only serological diagnosis of HG infection in the field.

Three substrains with different hemagglutination patterns isolated from a Japanese lentogenic strain of Newcastle disease virus.

Three substrains were cloned from chick kidney cell monolayers infected with the Ishii strain of lentogenic Newcastle disease virus isolated in Japan. These substrains, which differed in plaque morphology, were distinguished as having no +24R+ and -24R- patterns in the hemagglutination (HA)-elution test.

Effect of incubation temperature or maternal antibody on virus growth and mortality of embryonated chicken eggs inoculated with the B1 strain of lentogenic Newcastle disease virus.

The effects of incubation temperature on virus growth and mortality patterns were studied in antibody-free chicken eggs inoculated with the B1 strain of Newcastle disease virus. Embryo mortality patterns did not differ much between 37, 39, and 41 C of incubation, although virus growth curves were higher at 39 C and 41 C than at 37 C. Below 35 C, embryo mortality was delayed, although from 48 hours after incubation the virus growth curves were similar to those at 37 C. In eggs with and without maternal antibody, virus titers were maximum 48 hours after incubation, although slightly higher in antibody-free eggs than in eggs with antibody whether the eggs were alive or dead. Eggs with maternal antibody had delayed mortality patterns.
