Recently hatched bovine embryos were exposed in vitro to 1 of 4 strains of IBR IPV herpesvirus. Exposure to each virus strain resulted in embryonic infection and death, and replication of the agent was demonstrated by electron microscopy and titration of progeny virus. There was no difference between virus strains in pathogenicity or in the ultrastructural pathological findings of infection.
