[Treatment of swine cell line with antibiotics: effect on growth kinetics and susceptibility to foot-and-mouth disease virus and to mycoplasma-like organisms].

Cell cultures treated with tylosin tartrate and kanamycin sulphate antibiotics were studied in relation to the cell growth rate, the susceptibility to the foot-and-mouth disease virus and to the microorganism eradication. These treatments did not affect the cell growth rate and the cell behavior to the viral infection. On the other hand, the decontamination of the intracytoplasmatic formas of mycoplasma-like organism was not observed.
