Effect of Ether on Certain Coxsackie Viruses.

Abstract
Of 8 strains of Coxsackie viruses tested, including 5 of group A representing 4 serol. types and 3 of group B, only the group B, type 2, Ohio-R strain was susceptible to diethyl ether. In addition to serving as a means of differentiating the Ohio-R strain from other serol. types of C viruses, the use of ether may be a limiting factor in the isolation of this agent.
