In the course of studying the properties of several viruses pathogenic for suckling mice (Stanley and Hayes, 1950; Stanley et al., 1951), it was found necessary to attempt to purify certain strains to determine if virus, free from large amounts of non-virus protein, could be used in haemagglutination or complement-fixation tests. This paper describes the purification procedures adopted with three strains. The use of these purified preparations in complement-fixation and haemagglutination tests will be the subject of a further communication.
