THE CELLULAR CHANGES PRODUCED IN TISSUE CULTURES BY HERPES B VIRUS CORRELATED WITH THE CONCURRENT MULTIPLICATION OF THE VIRUS

Abstract
A sequential study is reported of the morphological changes occurring after herpes B virus infection of cells as revealed in ultrathin sections under the electron microscope. Monolayer cultures of renal epithelial cells prepared from the natural host of the virus, the monkey, were infected, and the cellular alterations were correlated with the appearance of infective virus in the culture fluids.
