Abstract

MOUSE oncephalomyocarditis virus is one of a group of viruses known to be pathogenic to a variety of animals1. Partial purification of the virus has been reported using protamine precipitation of extracts of infected mouse brain and the virus particle was found to be 27 mµ in diameter2. Recently, it was shown that the virus could be adsorbed on and eluted from columns of calcium phosphate without destroying infectivity3. In order to obtain analytical data on the composition of the virus and to perform biochemical studies on the effect of virus multiplication on the metabolism of Krebs ascites cells, we have developed a method for the purification and crystallization of encephalomyocarditis virus.
