The effect of acetone on the viability of chicken anemia agent.
To study the effect of acetone on the viability of CAA, a sample of CAA with a known titer was treated with 90% acetone for 24 hours at room temperature. The remaining viable CAA was quantitated by titrating the treated preparation in MDCC-MSB1 cell culture. Results indicated that CAA is very resistant to inactivation by acetone.
