Abstract

Eight feline viral serotypes are classified as picornaviruses. They are ether resistant, less than 51 mμ in diameter, and their essential nucleic acid is RNA. As a group, they are heat sensitive and moderately labile at pH 3.0. The viruses are not stabilized in solution of magnesium salts. Their position within the picornavirus group is yet to be determined.
