Abstract
Nine patients with acute influenza (Hong Kong strain) had increased concentrations in serum of a lipoidal material with physical, Chromatographic and infrared characteristics identical with squalene. Convalescent-phase serum specimens from these nine patients and all specimens from 45 patients with acute febrile illnesses other than influenza showed no elevations of this material.Keywords
