Two experiments involving the transfer of embryos from donors infected with swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV) to "clean" recipients were carried out. In Experiment 1, 47 embryos were collected from 4 SVDV-infected donors and transferred to 2 recipients that subsequently produced 10 piglets. All of the recipients and piglets remained seronegative for SVDV. In addition to the transfers, 10 embryos and 58 unfertilized eggs from the infected donors were assayed in vitro and found to be negative for SVDV infectivity. A fifth donor was also inoculated with SVDV in this experiment, but it could not be demonstrated that infection had occurred. This SVDV-exposed donor provided two embryos for transfer and one embryo and two unfertilized eggs for in vitro assay. In Experiment 2, 158 embryos from 9 infected donors were transferred to 7 recipients, resulting in 12 piglets. A total of 7 embryos and 37 unfertilized eggs were assayed in vitro. The recipients, piglets, and embryos/eggs were all negative for SVDV infectivity. Although a final conclusion on the safety of using embryo transfer for the control of swine vesicular disease (SVD) is not possible, the results obtained justify additional studies. |
