Article: Persistence of rat virus in seropositive rats as detected by explant culture. Brief report

Rat virus (RV) was detected by explant culture for up to 14 weeks in rats inoculated as infants and for up to 7 weeks in rats inoculated as juveniles, although both groups were seropositive by 3 weeks post-inoculation.
