The Response of Normal and Iron Anemic Calves to Nasal Infection with an Attenuated Strain of Parainfluenza-3 Virus
Immunitetsvaret hos normala kalvar och kalvar med järnbristanemi efter en nasal infektion med en attenuerad parainfluensa-3 virus stam
Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica volume 16, pages 186–196 (1975)
Abstract
Calves with experimentally induced iron deficiency anemia and normal calves, both groups deprived of colostrum, were exposed to intranasal instillation of an attenuated parainfluenza-3 virus strain.
The calves became infected, but there was no difference in the clinical picture between the 2 groups of calves. Neither was there a difference in the humoral or local immune response to parainfluenza-3 virus.
Sammanfattning
Kalvar med experimentent framkallad järnbristanemi och normala kalvar infekterades intranasalt med en attenuerad parainfluensa-3 virus stam. Kalvarna hade ej tillätits dricka råmjölk.
Samtliga kalvar visade lindriga symtom på en infektion. Det var ej någon skillnad varken i det humorala eller i det lokala immunitetssvaret mellan de två grupperna.
