sickandconvalescentbirds,thelatterbeingprolongedcarriersofthevirus(upto1
2years).Withthisregard,acertainstationarityisobserved.

236.In the conjunctival form of LT, wet eyes, tear secretion and oedema of
infraorbital sinuses are observed, especially in a complicated infection. The typical
clinical and morphological signs are sufficient to assume the presence of LT. The
diagnosis is confirmed with the detection of intranuclear inclusion bodies in the
trachea throughout the histological study in the early stages of the disease,
serological studies (VN, ELISA) etc. LT should be differentiated from IB, SHS, M.
synoviae infections etc. Premises, contamined with the LT virus, should be freed,
cleansed, disinfected and occupied again after 5 6 weeks. The vaccination of
unaffectedbirdsandthesefromotherpremisesoftheinfectedfarmcouldprotectand
