The cells were infected with a multiplicity of infection of 0.01, and the vaccine was harvested when the cytopathic effect reached 80%. The vaccine was then freeze-dried to preserve its stability. A ...

One of these viruses (Fig. 1, Case 22) was not neutralized with antiserums against the 3 types of poliovirus, Coxsackie virus Group A, Type 9, and Group B, Types 1 through 6, and ECHO virus Types ...
