Abstract
Using a dynamic system the inactivation of polio and reovirus preparations containing essentially all single and preparations containing aggregated viruses was examined. Differences in resistance to bromine and chlorine were shown to be caused both by inherent differences between different virus groups and by state of aggregation. Electron microscopic observations of polio and reoviruses as they emerge from infected cells and in crude extracts indicated that substantial numbers of viruses may be released from infected cells in an aggregated state. Differences in stability of aggregates of polio and reoviruses and effects of dilution, ionic strength, and pH on aggregation are also shown.
