1 Applied veterinary Virlgy: The islatin and identificatin f viruses using embrynated Authrs: Prf. Estelle H Venter Licensed under a Creative Cmmns Attributin license. INTRODUCTION Viruses can nly grw in living cells but they are particular abut the type f cell they infect and grw in there is n universal cell that will supprt all viruses. Viruses tend t be hstspecific; therefre human viruses grw best in cells f human rigin, bvine viruses in bvine cells, canine viruses in canine cells, while sme viruses will nt grw in vitr at all. Therefre in the labratry the suspected virus must be grwn in a culture methd knwn t supprt its grwth. animals are used fr studying viruses which d nt grw in cell cultures r eggs, and fr testing vaccines, eggs supprt a fairly wide range f animal and human viruses hence their imprtance in the diagnstic service, cell cultures; different types f cell lines will supprt different types f viruses. The grwth f viruses in eggs Embrynated hen s eggs will supprt the grwth f sme viruses. Nt all viruses will grw in the tissues f embrynated eggs initially but many can be adapted t grwth in eggs withut much difficulty. Eggs prvide a suitable means fr the primary islatin and identificatin f viruses, the maintenance f stck cultures and the prductin f vaccines. The viruses grw in the cells f the embry and membranes and can be detected in several ways. These include mrtality, defrmity r haemrrhages in the embry, lesins n the membrane in the frm f pcks, edema f the develping membranes, inclusin bdies in sectins prepared frm embry tissues r the presence f viral antigens in the egg fluids. An embrynated hen s egg cntains cells (the embry and its membranes) that will supprt the grwth f sme viruses. They grw either in the cells f the embry r its membranes, r in bth and when these cells die they are liberated int the egg fluids. Cllectin f the virusinfected egg fluid is relatively simple, if smewhat messy. 1 P a g e

2 Eggs are inexpensive and easy t maintain. Eggs cme in a usually sterile package surrunded by a prus shell. As they shuld arrive clean in the labratry, they shuld nt be washed r immersed in water as this may allw bacteria t enter the egg. Use a quickly evaprating agent, such as alchl, tincture f idine r ether, t sterilize the eggshell at the site re inculatin. Eggs are freely available, especially hens eggs but ducks eggs have als been used. The immune system f the embry has nt matured; therefre antibdies are nt prduced against the inculated virus. Hwever, maternal antibdies are transferred frm the hen t the egg which implies that eggs shuld be btained frm nn-vaccinated (especially against Newcastle disease virus), mycplasma-free flcks. Advantages f eggs ver animal hst systems Eggs are readily available, cheap and easy t maintain Preliminary incubatin f the eggs is carried ut at C and 60 70% humidity. The eggs need t be turned at least twice a day r rlled cntinually in a specially designed egg incubatr Once inculated, the eggs are incubated at temperatures suitable fr the grwth f the virus, but still maintaining a high degree f humidity Eggs are easily manipulated under sterile cnditins Eggs cme in a sterile package surrunded by a prus shell. They shuld arrive clean in the labratry. D nt wash the eggs r immerse them in water as this may allw bacteria t enter the prus shell. T sterilize the site f inculatin, use a quickly evaprating agent, such as alchl, tincture f idine r ether Eggs are sheltered frm the natural diseases ften bserved in labratry animals, and are relatively free frm bacterial and many latent viral infectins. Hwever maternal antibdies are transferred frm the mther hen, therefre the eggs shuld be btained frm nn-vaccinated (especially Newcastle disease virus), mycplasma-free flcks Eggs are generally free frm natural factrs f defence, specific r nn-specific, that smetimes intervenes and prevents passage in adult animals. The immune system f the embry has nt matured therefre antibdies are nt made against the inculated virus. Als the embry is sensitive f sme viruses that are harmless t the adult bird Eggs are easily identified and labelled with details f date, virus inculated and experimental prcedure Different rutes f inculatin fr different viruses are available i.e. 2 P a g e

3 the amnitic and / r allantic cavities, the ylk sac, the chri-allantic membrane, intravenus. Viruses that can grw in embrynated Embrynated are nt rutinely used fr the islatin f viruses.
