STUDIES ON VARICELLA : THE SUSCEPTIBILITY OF RABBITS TO THE VIRUS OF VARICELLA.



Thomas M. Rivers M.D.1 and William S. Tillett M.D1

1 From the Hospital of The Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research.

1. The localization of the virus of varicella in the human skin is influenced by irritation. This is indirect evidence that the virus is in the blood.

2. Rabbits are susceptible to a virus recovered from the blood of varicella patients.

3. Testicular emulsions containing the virus are free from ordinary aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, and produce lesions in the cornea, skin, and testicles of rabbits.

4. The virus can be transmitted indefinitely from rabbit to rabbit by means of testicular inoculation, and can be preserved 29 days in 50 per cent glycerol at a low temperature.
