Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation of swine infertility and respiratory syndrome virus (isolate ATCC VR-2332) in North America and experimental reproduction of the disease in gnotobiotic pigs

TL;DR: This is the first isolate of SIRS virus in the United States that fulfills Koch's postulates in producing the respiratory form of the disease in gnotobiotic piglets and the first report of isolation and propagation of the virus on a continuous cell line (CL2621).
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of swine infertility and respiratory syndrome (SIRS) virus (isolate ATCC VR-2332).

TL;DR: The characterization of an isolate of swine infertility and respiratory syndrome (SIRS) virus (ATCC VR-2332) is reported and it is indicated that this isolate is a fastidious, nonhemagglutinating, enveloped RNA virus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus infection in one-, four-, and 10-week-old pigs.

TL;DR: Findings presented here indicate that interstitial pneumonia, lymphoid necrosis, and mononuclear myocarditis are characteristic lesions of PRRSV isolate ATCC VR-2332 infection in 1-, 4-, and lo-week-old pigs.
Journal Article

Experimental reproduction of swine infertility and respiratory syndrome in pregnant sows.

TL;DR: On the basis of the findings, virus isolate ATCC VR-2332 causes the reproductive failure associated with SIRS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control and elimination of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus.

TL;DR: A voluntary regional program to involve all herds present within an area that has been relatively successful and reflects local leadership, a cooperative spirit, and a will to eliminate virus from the region is considered.
