Summary
-
1.
A method is described for the purification of Col-SK virus which makes use of adsorption on and elution from sheep red blood cells.
-
2.
The ultraviolet adsorption spectrum of Col-SK virus is characteristic of nucleoproteins.
-
3.
When large amounts of Col-SK virus are adsorbed on sheep red blood cells there occurs a decrease of electrophoretic mobility of the latter. This effect is not obtained with less than maximal amounts of virus.
-
4.
Red cells from which the virus has been eluted move in the electrical field at the same rate as do normal red cells.
