Utilization of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) Infection for Subhuman Primates to Evaluate Experimental Chemotherapy and Vaccines. Titration of Two Strains of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) in Macaca Mulatta and Tissue Culture.

Abstract

The purpose of this research to to determine the infectivity of a biological clone (Ells) and a molecular clone (clone 8) of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) in Macaca Mulatta and tissue culture. The study commenced on March 15, 1989 with the selection of the acceptable age and size of 35 candidate rhesus monkeys and housed in the study room.
