    Molecular Diagnostic Laboratory, Living Cell Technologies NZ Ltd, Auckland, New Zealand
    J Med Virol 80:2046-52. 2008
    ..There was no evidence of pig virus transmission into primate recipients. This preclinical study underlines the information concerning viral safety of islet cell xenograft in pig-to-primate xenotransplantation...
