Introduction Inapparent virus infections of experimental animals and tissue culture systems present to the investigator a problem which it is impossible to overcome completely. Although all recognised viruses can be excluded from an experimental system, previously unsuspected viruses causing no obvious effects ('silent' viruses) will continue to be discovered. A truly silent virus would replicate, causing no change in its host cell, damage to infected tissue or immune response and would pre sumably be of no consequence.
