Abstract
A study of interferon yield in cell cultures prepared from a variety of chick embryo organs exposed to three strains of influenza type A virus showed that both virus and cells differed in their capacity to induce and produce interferon. The WS strain of virus was superior to the PR8 and NWS as an interferon inducer, and cell cultures prepared from chick embryo lung produced higher titers of interferon than did cells from other organs.Keywords
