As reported previously, attenuated stable inhibitor-resistant influenza viruses can be screened by a 50% ciliary activity inhibition test in ferret tracheal organ cultures. This test was further applied to a 5 attenuated cold-adapted influenza strains and to 11 strains with known a percentage of RNA-RNA hybridization with the parental A/PR/8/34 (HON1) virus strain. Again, with one exception, attenuated strains could be clearly differentiated from virulent ones. It was concluded that virulence of influenza strains for man can be detected using this test regardless of the techniques used to prepare attenuated variants. A preliminary screening of attenuated candidates for live influenza vaccines can be achieved with confidence on ferret tracheal organ cultures.
