Abstract

Interspecies transmission of the BLV by the inoculation of milk and blood of cows infected by the enzootic bovine leukosis directly into the bloodstream or through the gastrointestinal tract of heterologous species (rabbit) was demonstrated. The results of this work indicate the ability of the BLV to overcome the interspecies barriers. Use of native milk with infectious properties is shown to be dangerous.
