Popis:	SummaryAntisera prepared in hamsters by the intranasal instillation of allantoic fluids containing influenza virus were type-specific when used in the complement-fixation test with the soluble antigens; group- or subtype-specific (e.g. A prime) when used in the complement fixation test with the allantoic fluid antigen, and strain-specific in hemagglutination-inhibition tests.It appears that the hamster is an animal best suited for quick identification of influenza viruses. It is suggested that their sera be used for systematic classification of strains.
