Abstract

One handred and sixty rabbit sera from 10 breeding colonies and 13 laboratory colonies were tested for antibodies to Sendai virus and rotavirus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) . Antibodies were detected to Sendai virus in 53% and to rotavirus in 81%, indicating the prevalence of these viral infections in laboratory rabbit colonies.
