The background for the project was a discussion about whether the current infection test for family material can be done more efficient. The hypothesis was that the families with the lowest virus levels are also the families that can neutralize the virus most effectively, thereby spreading the virus to the least extent to the environment. This could be tested by first find the families that survive a viral disease and from these again select for the families that have lowest virus levels. Alternatively, it could be thought that the families who tolerate the infection / virus best, regardless of the amount of virus and the ability to neutralize and thereby remove viruses, also has the greatest ability to to survive. If this other alternative is the case, current infection tests will not contribute to less spread of virus. A project for testing these hypotheses was designed and implemented in a collaboration between The Veterinary Institute, SalmoBreed, PatoGen Analysis and the Norwegian Veterinary College. The very the infection testing was performed by VESO Vikan.
