Abstract
Simple, practical, reproductible methods for the detection of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) in peripheral blood leukocytes and BLV-neutralizing antibodies in bovine sera are described. Virus detection is based on syncytium formation in transformed feline (F-81) cells. The use of multiwell culture plates provides practical benefits in testing large numbers of samples. Results obtained in 2 farm herds show that the agreement of serologic and virologic test results may vary considerably from herd to herd.Entities:
