PAGE TWELVE THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON THURSDAY, AUGUST 4, 194? Now Cultured In Test Tube Tumalo By Paul F. Ellis (UnlUd PrM Scitnc. Writer) (Coprrlsht. 14, br th. United frt Awociationl Boston, Mass., Aug. 4 (IPi The virus that causes polio now can be grown and studied in the test tube, opening the way ior an accelerated four-pronged attack on Infantile paralysis. The accomplishment In itself by Harvard university's Children's hospital scientists in developing a new technique to grow the virus outside the human body is great enough, but the ultimate gains may be even greater. The new work Is being done by these Inves tigations in the research division of Infectious diseases. Children's Medical center, Boston, and is fi nanced by funds from the Nation al Foundation for Infantile Paral ysis. Scientists previously were able to grow the polio virus for a short time in a test tube, using nerve tissue for culture. The children's hospital research team, however, now have found that the virus will grow and multiply in a cul ture with other types of human tissue. Project Tear Old Although the project Is but a year old, the Harvard scientists have shown that the virus of one strain in group 2 polio can be grown In the test tubev and pre liminary experiments Indicate that a strain In group 1 polio also may so succeed. The avenues, which possibly may be speeded up as a result of the work here, lead to such polio goals as: 1. A source of Urge amounts j of virus for possible vaccination purposes. 2 Classification of virus tynes 1 and the elimination of animals for ' some experiments in polio. 3. Disclosing how the virus at tacks and feeds on the living cell. 4. Isolation of virus as a pos sible aid to diagnosis. Feeds on Tissues The work indicated that the virus, a parasite, feeds on human tissues other than nerve cells. Such mlht explain why polio vir us can be found in healthv per sons without outward symptoms. In the experiments" here, the Harvard scientists obtained their virus known as the Lansing strain from infected mice or monkeys. It is placed in a fluid made up of salt, serium of ox blood, penicilin streptomycin, and minced human tissue. The pencillin and streptomycin are used to destroy any bacteria that may have been in the tissue and thus sterilize the fluid without af. fecting the virus. The ox blood ! ana salt serve as food for the tis sue cells, keeping them alive so that the virus can in turn feed and multiply upon the tissue. The scientists have kept the human tissue alive for as long as 40 days and within 20 diys the oolin virus has multiplied itself b k )ti tUo pw ,,ione, a "production" of virus that mere ly ic(je&eus tne overflow from the main growth going on in the tissue cells. May Speed Research Development of the new tech nique here may bring about more : rapid strides in the search for a 1 safe vaccine against polio. For! the first time it now appears that ' .ultimately scientists will be able ' to produce virus in large quan tities, free from brain or nervous tissue which has been known to result in serious complications in vaccine material for other dis-i eases. , j The experiments are continuing i with other types of polio virus and other human and non-human ; tissue slated for investigation. : Eventually, the scientists may, find that polio virus can be grown ! in the embryonic egg, using tissue ! culture as a starting growth. ; in many otner diseases, vac cines have been developed largely because the disease organism could be grown in large quantities in test tube or egg incubation. TOOLS STOLEN Tools valued at $65 were taken from his car sometime between Monday and this morning, Jack Lee, 42 Hawthorne, told police today. , ; Entrance was made by break ing a window. The car was not in use until this morning, since early Monday, Lee said, account ing for his failure to discover the loss sooner. The tools, all marked with X," included two sets of socket wrenches, one ", and one Yt". Tumrdo, Aug. 4 (Special) Word was received by friends here last week of the sudden death of Richard Curr, 19-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. William Carr, of Es tucada, on July io.
