Abstract
Ca++ ions at a concentration of 0.5-20 mM greatly reduced the hemolysis of chicken erythrocytes caused by Sendai virus. Mn++, Sr++ and Ba++ can replace Ca++ in preventing the virus induced hemolysis. When the lytic effect of the virus was minimal, fusion of erythrocytes was observed by phase contrast microscope. Fusion indices of 1-8 could be obtained in the presence of Ca++ or Mn++.
