In an attempt to plaque-purify and to quantitatc some strains of influenza viruses and of avian reoviruses we succeeded to cultivate cells from the chorioallantoic membrane of chick embryos. The following strains were tested for their ability to grow, induce a cytopathie effect and form plaques in chorioallantoic cells of the chick embryo (CAM-cells). After an incubation period of 8 to 16hrs the media were assayed for hemagglutinating activity and for infectivity by plaque tests on the same cell type used for growing the viruses, i.e. CAM cells or chick embryo fibroblasts. ./cache/cord-004830-vmka378d.txt ./txt/cord-004830-vmka378d.txt
