Abstract
THERE have been many attempts to adapt influenza virus to growth at lower temperatures. For many viruses such as polio1–3, Japanese oncephalitis4 and measles5, a relationship has been observed between virulence and the ability to grow at lower temperatures, and this has been used in the selection of attenuated variants.

A virus strain, OCT-541, isolated directly in HKC cultures from wild caught mosquitoes was carried from 15 to 60 passages in nine different HKC rapid passage lines, most of which included reduction of incubation temperature, considered encouraging in respect to qualities essential for a live virus vaccine.
