Abstract
The addition of penicillin to unfiltered sputums inoculated to chick embryos prevented bacterial contamination and permitted survival of the embryos in the majority of instances. Less favorable results were obtained in tissue cultures. Reference is made to the isolation of 2 strains of herpes virus by primary egg inoculation of unfiltered sputums treated with penicillin.
