Isolation and diagnosis of coronaviruses as a factor in bovine shipping fever, and a cell line for culturing both those and other bovine coronaviruses

摘要

Coronaviruses can be a significant factor in bovine shipping fever. A new human rectal tumor cell line, HRT-18G, is suitable as a host cell line for the propagation of these bovine respiratory coronavirus- shipping fever viruses, and also is well suited for the propagation of other bovine coronaviruses.
