Growth of Igbo-Ora virus in some tissue cultures

O D Olaleye et al. Acta Virol. 1990 Aug.

Abstract

VERO, MRC5, MDCK, and MA104 cells were tested for their ability to support the growth of Igbo-Ora virus. In VERO and MRC5 cell cultures the virus replicated to high titres causing apparent cytopathic effects (CPE) (cell rounding and complete lysis) and formation of complement fixing antigens. The virus grew to lower infectious titre in MDCK and MA104 cell cultures in which CPE was limited to cell rounding only.
