title: [A comparative analysis of epidemic strains of the influenza A virus (H1N1), isolated in the USSR and Czechoslovakia in 1986].
abstract: A comparative study of antigenic and molecular-biological properties of epidemic influenza virus strains isolated in the USSR and CSSR in the autumn-winter, 1986-1987 was carried out and showed that the epidemics in both countries were due to influenza A viruses of H1N1 subtype, antigenically related to the reference A/Taiwan/1/86 and A/Singapore/6/86 strains, which was confirmed by electrophoretic studies. The strains were found to vary in sensitivity to heating and to the inhibitors.
