Abstract
Summary
Further studies of 2 higher plants (Narcissus tazetta L and Magnolia kobus DC) with antiviral action against lymphocytic choriomeningitis infection in mice have been reported, and the activity of a third substance, propionin, added. The anti-LCM activities of the 3 natural products have been compared with methotrexate.
The authors are indebted to Dr. H. A. Chirigos, Nat. Inst. of Health, for supplying methotrexate and to Dr. Ralph F. Anderson, International Minerals & Chemical Corp., for supplying crudes containing propionin.
