Infection of Cynomolgus Monkeys with the Ohio Type of Coxsackie Virus (C Virus)

[摘要] Cynomolgus monkeys may be infected with the Ohio type of C virus; in contrast, rhesus and cercopithecus monkeys show no such susceptibility. This has been shown to be true with 3 different strains of the Ohio type, all immunologically related.Evidences of infection in the monkey are: the development of fever and a virus carrier state both in the intestines and in the throat. Additional evidence for infection is the formation of neutralizing and complement fixing antibodies.
