Horse Dermal Fibroblast Cells (NBL-6 Line)

Initiated from the dermal tissue of a 4-year-old female horse (Equus caballus) of the quarterhorse strain, theNBL-6cell line (also called the E. Derm line) has played an important role in equine viral arteritis (EVA) research. EVA is a contagious respiratory disease caused by a small, enveloped RNA virus.
