Abstract
A filterable virus was isolated from skin lesions of a 15-mos.-old child with Kaposi''s varicelliform eruption. Fluid from cutaneous vesicles produced lesions in a rabbit''s cornea. The virus strain was readily perpetuated by inoculation of corneal fluid into mice or chick chorioallantois, or by direct inocul. of vesicular fluid into chorioallantois. The 2 virus strains, one isolated by rabbit''s cornea and the other on the chorioallantois, gave similar results in all studies. Both are well established in mice.
