A safe and effective vaccine against bovine leukemia virus. [PDF]
Previous attempts to develop a vaccine against bovine leukemia virus (BLV) have not been successful because of inadequate or short-lived stimulation of all immunity components. In this study, we designed an approach based on an attenuated BLV provirus by

Although BLV antigens have been detected in the urine of infected cows, infectious BLV has not been detected, and attempts to transmit the virus by inoculation of urine into susceptible recipients have failed. Neither BLV nor its antigens have been detected in saliva or semen, and neither secretion has been implicated in the natural transmission of the

Evidence in support of a virus etiology for bovine leukemia [PDF]
Virus-like particles resembling the C-type particles of murine leukemia were detected in tissue biopsies and more frequently in thin sections of pellets following density gradient centrifugation of milk from leukemic cows and cows in a high incidence leukemic herd. These particles had a buoyant density in potassium citrate and sucrose gradients of 1.15
