Summary
A linear relationship between incubation period (time after inoculation of virus before cytopathic effect) and log concentration of seed virus has been demonstrated for some adenoviruses in tissue culture. Different strains and even different lines of the same strain of virus showed somewhat varying regression coefficients.
The addition of tryptose to the medium increased the degeneration rate of one of the virus lines.
