Virus interference. II. Some properties of interferon

Isaacs, Alick, Lindenmann, J., Valentine, R. C.·1957·Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B - Biological Sciences

Abstract

Interferon could be titrated by the amount of interference induced in fragments of chorio-allantoic membranes challenged with influenza A virus. Over a ten-fold range, inverse proportion between interferon concentration and haemagglutinin titre reached by the challenge virus was observed. Interferon proved stable at 2°C for 2 weeks. Marked inactivation took place after 1 h at 60°C. Interferon was not measurably sedimented by 100 000 g for ½ h. It was held back by gradocol filters of a. p. d. 0.6 μ. It was not dialyzable. Interferon was active against influenza A, Sendai, Newcastle disease and vaccinia viruses. It was not neutralized by anti-MEL rabbit serum and only slightly inhibited by pooled human serum rich in complement-fixing antibody to influenza A soluble antigen.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
