Effect of ambient temperatures on multiplication of attenuated transmissible gastroenteritis virus in the bodies of newborn piglets. 1976

S Furuuchi, and Y Shimizu

Newborn piglets were found to be more resistant to infection with attenuated transmissible gastroenteritis virus when maintained at higher temperatures. This was attributed to a decreased rate of virus propagation and spreading in the bodies of the infected animals. The highest virus levels were detected in the tissues of piglets maintained at 8 to 12 C. In contrast, no virus was recovered from piglets maintained at 35 to 37.5 C. The virus was found only in the lymph nodes and respiratory organs in the piglets maintained at 20 to 23 C.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D003332	Coronaviridae	Spherical RNA viruses, in the order NIDOVIRALES, infecting a wide range of animals including humans. Transmission is by fecal-oral and respiratory routes. Mechanical transmission is also common. There are two genera: CORONAVIRUS and TOROVIRUS.	Bafinivirus,Coronavirinae,Torovirinae,White bream virus,Bafiniviruses,White bream viruses

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013552	Swine	Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).
