Abstract |
Optimum growth temperature and viral sensitivity of 32 cell lines derived
from salmonid and non-salmonid fresh or sea water fish were studied using
the salmonid viruses: IPNV, IHNV, OMV, H. saZmonis and CSV, and non-
salmonid rhabdovirus REV. Viral replication in 19 cell lines was examined
by employing the IPNV, IHNV, OMV and H. salmonis and chromosome numbers
were observed in 8 cell lines. Optimum growth temperature of salmonid cell
lines was 20 Celsius and non-salmonid warm water fish cell lines were 25
or 30 Celsius. Most of the cell lines had sensitivity to IPNV and IHNV,
but OMV and H. salmonis showed the CPE only on the salmonid cell lines. On
CHH-1, SE, RTG-2 and CHSE-214 cell lines, salmonid viruses showed a high
rate of replication.
