title: Effects of asymmetrical triazine copper complexes on superoxide radical formation and on the Sendai virus multiplication.
abstract: The O2- scavenging activity of some ligands of asymmetrical triazine seems to be enhanced when complexed with copper. S1 Cu complex in concentration of 10(-8) M inhibits the multiplication of type 1 (Sendai) parainfluenza virus cultivated on MCA fragments. The possible mechanism of inhibition is discussed.
