J.  aBluetongue virus in goats.  c1972  aBluetongue (BT) viremia in Saanen goats was assayed by inoculating blood into embryonating chicken eggs. High-titer viremia consistently occurred in Saanen goats inoculated with either BT 8 or 63-66B strain of BT virus. Low-titer viremia consistently occurred in Saanen goats inoculated with 4 other strains of BT virus. Virus was detected as early as postinoculation day (PID) 1, increased to a peak on PID 6 or 7, and then gradually de- creased, but was still detectable as late as PID 21.  Goats did not develop overt signs of illness, and 13 of 18 goats inoculated had group-specific BT viral precipitin antibodies in their blood serums on PID 21. All goats had antibodies 21 days after the challenge viral inoculation was given.  aBluetongue virus  aBody temperature  aCulicoides imicola  aGoat diseases  aHematocrit  aImmunodiffusion tests  aImmunology  aLeukocyte count  aSheep diseases  aCaprino  aDoença Animal  aLíngua Azul  aVírus  aChick Embryo1 aANAKWENZE, E.
