Effects of norakin on respiratory syncytial virus in tissue culture and in mice
Abstract
Norakin at 1 microgram/ml inhibits the reproduction of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in Vero cells to 50% and at 5 micrograms/ml to 90%. The development of lung lesions in RSV-infected BALB/c mice was suppressed by 70% when the animals were treated with two doses (25 mg/kg each) of norakin, 30 min before and 4 hr post infection. (p.i.), respectively.
