title: INTERFERENCE BETWEEN THE INFLUENZA VIRUSES : II. THE EFFECT OF VIRUS RENDERED NON-INFECTIVE BY ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION UPON THE MULTIPLICATION OF INFLUENZA VIRUSES IN THE CHICK EMBRYO.
abstract: Influenza A or influenza B virus rendered non-infective by ultraviolet radiation was found to be capable of producing interference with the multiplication of active influenza viruses in the chick embryo. Certain temporal and quantitative relationships affecting the interference phenomenon with this host-virus system were studied. An hypothesis of the mechanism of interference between the influenza viruses is proposed and discussed.
