  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;An isolant of duck plague herpesvirus from the Lake Andes Refuge outbreak was seeded in raw and filter-decontaminated water from two locations on the refuge, held at 4 C, and assayed for infectivity intermittently over a period of 2 mo. From an initial level of about 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;5&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;PFU per ml, infectivity in the filtered samples uniformly dropped to about 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;PFU per ml. Infectivity in the raw samples declined much more rapidly; infectious virus remaining at the end of 2 mo (ca. 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;PFU per ml) was only about 0.01% of that originally seeded.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
