title: Assay of chick interferons by the inhibition of viral ribonucleic acid synthesis.
abstract: A method for assaying chick interferons by their inhibition of viral ribonucleic acid synthesis was devised and evaluated. The technique yielded results faster and had more flexibility than other methods with similar sensitivity and reproducibility.
