Airborne Rabies Virus Isolation

W. G. WINKLER 1

1 From the Epidemiology Program, National Communicable Disease Center, Bureau of Disease Prevention and Environmental Control, Public Health Service, U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare, Atlanta, Georgia 30333

Airborne rabies virus was isolated from Frio Cave, Texas, using a mechanical air sampler. Several types of samplers have been used, but only an electrostatic precipitation device has collected measurable quantities of virus. Prior to this, the only known reported isolations of airborne rabies virus had occurred when susceptible animals were confined in bat caves for long periods of time. The use of a mechanical sampler can facilitate quantitation of virus in caves.
