Abstract: A virus strain was isolated from the liver of a raccoon dog, which was suspected as the canine distemper. It was identified to be a canine distemper virus by morphology test, hemagglutination test, indirect immunofluorescence assay and molecular virology test. The successful isolation of the virus founded the base of studying the molecular biological characteristics and pathogenic mechanism of the virus and construction of gene engineering vaccine.
