A method for the collection of nasal epithelial cells and secretion from domestic animals
Abstract
A method for aspirating nasal and genital epithelial cells and secretion using a vacuum pump is described. The samples obtained are suitable for diagnosis of infectious diseases by isolation of bacteria and viruses and by demonstration of the organisms by immunofluorescent techniques.
