VIRUSES OF POLIOMYELITIS

AN IMMUNOLOGICAL COMPARISON OF SIX STRAINS

James D Trask 1, John R Paul 1, Agnes R Beebe 1, William J German 1
PMCID: PMC2133511  PMID: 19870628

Abstract

Qualitative immunological differences exist between early passage strains or so called human strains of the virus of poliomyelitis. These differences show a relationship to the epidemic source of the virus and are exemplified in this study by 4 strains isolated in different years during an eastern and western epidemic of poliomyelitis.
