Seven strains of feline panleukopenia (FPL) virus were isolated in feline kidney cell cultures from 2 of 4 spontaneous cases of FPL, and in direct cultures of the kidney obtained from 2 of 3 FPL cases. All of them exhibited cytopathic changes accompanied by formation of intranuclear inclusion bodies in feline kidney cell cultures, and hemagglutinated porcine erythrocytes at 4°C. They could not be distinguished from one another by serum-neutralization (SN) or hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) tests. Discussion was made on biological and physicochemical properties, the routinization of isolation and quantitative determination methods, and the SN and HI tests as serologic procedures for FPL virus.
