Abstract
A strain of Eastern equine encephalomyelitis virus was maintained for 11 years by (1) periodic repassage in guinea pig and developing chick embryo between the periods of storage in the dry-ice cabinet and (2) by storage at 4 °C. in the presence of cysteine hydrochloride without repassage. No change in pathogenicity or antigenicity of either clone was noted.
