INCLUSION BODIES FROM NEWCASTLE DISEASE VIRUS IN HeLa CELLS

Abstract
Intracyto-plasmic basophilic inclusion bodies were observed via Jenner-Giemsa stain following NDV infection of HeLa cells. Inclusion bodies were first observed 24 hours post-infect ion in a few cells. At 72 hours bodies were mostly round, some pyriform, usually surrounded by a halo. Evidence indicates that these bodies are to be found in cells which survive the first acute attack of virus.
