THE NATURE OF THE VIRUS OF MEASLES
As soon as we had satisfied ourselves of the susceptibility of the monkey to inoculation with measles 1 we turned our attention to the study of the nature of the virus as it exists in the circulating blood. Accordingly we made experiments to determine its filterability, its resistance to drying, heat, freezing and "age," and now desire to present ...
