Embryonated chicken eggs (ECE) and the Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line were compared for isolation of swine influenza virus (SIV) from nasal swabs and tissue samples. Samples originated from 30 pigs experimentally inoculated with 2 x 106 to 2 x 10(7) embryo infectious dose 50% (EID50)/mL of swine influenza strain A/Swine/Indiana/1726/88 (H1N1). The results were analyzed with McNemar's chi-squared test for symmetry. The results indicated that more samples were SIV-positive with ECE than with tissue culture (P < 0.001), suggesting that ECE remains the system of choice for isolation of SIV. It is recommend that routine use of both SIV isolation systems will increase the sensitivity of detection of virus shedding by considering the differences in growth and tropism of diverse SIV strains.
