Abstract
EXPERIMENTS by Zimmermann and Schäfer1 showed that p-fluorophenylalanine (FPA), given immediately after infection of chick embryo cells by fowl plague virus, inhibits the formation of any virus material detectable by commonly used biological methods. If FPA is given 2 hr. post-infection, the s-antigen appears normally, while no hæmagglutinin activity and no infectious particles can be detected.
