摘要：

Antibodies against phocine distemper virus were found in liver and serum specimens of harp seals from the Barents Sea and north of Jan Mayen (West Ice) in 1987 and 1989. By immunoperoxidase testing, antibodies against phocine distemper virus could be demonstrated in 34 of 74 liver specimens (46%) from 1987 and in 44 of 126 liver specimens (35%) from 1989. The prevalence of neutralizing serum antibodies against phocine distemper virus was found to be 98% in 1989. Both findings clearly demonstrate the presence of a widespread infection with phocine distemper virus or a closely related virus in harp seals. The significance of these findings to the recent outbreak of phocine distemper virus infection in harbor seals in Northwestern Europe is discussed and it is concluded that there may be an epizootiological link between this outbreak and the large migration of harp seals in 1987.
