INFLUENZA : II. EFFECT OF INFLUENZA VIRUS MULTIPLICATION ON THE OXYGEN CONSUMPTION CURVES OF EMBRYONATED EGGS INCUBATED AT DIFFERENT TEMPERATURES

In addition to the cycles of growth shown by the influenza A virus during the first 24 hours of its residence in the fertile egg, cycles separated by longer time intervals have been noted between the 24th and 96th hours. These longer cycles are best seen when the eggs are incubated at 40°C.

Corresponding fairly accurately with these cycles of growth of the virus, wide cyclic variations in the rates of increase in oxygen consumption of the infected eggs have been found to occur. These variations are in striking contrast to the uniformity of increase noted in uninfected eggs.

The variations in infectivity may be caused by periodic interference with virus multiplication by accumulated inactive virus particles. The variations in oxygen consumption probably are correlated with variations in the concentration of virus toxins.
