title: Vulpinic acids inhibit influenza (RNA) viruses but not herpes (DNA) viruses.
abstract: Three synthetic vulpinic acids inhibited two influenza RNA viruses, type A (Philippine) and B (Paraha), in tissue culture with ID50 values ranging from 3.9 to 15.5 μg/ml. They had no activity against a third influenza virus or against two herpes viruses.
