The presence of a heat-stable interferon-like inhibitor in allantoic and amniotic fluids collected from chick embryos infected with type C influenza virus was determined. This inhibitorwas characterized as an interferon and the ability of both live and ultra-violet-irradiated influenza type C virus to induce the substance was examined under various conditions.
