Description
Derived from new-born bovine turbinate tissue. Used in propagation of BVDV and IBRV, some strains of parainfluenza 3 virus (P1-3V), some types of bovine adenovirus and enterovirus. The Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus (BVDV) status of this cell line was previously described as negative. Results of recent multiple molecular tests for BVDV that were undertaken by two independent testing laboratories were equivocal. This means that we cannot confirm the BVDV status of this cell line.
