Egg With Cold May Help Track
Source of SniffIes in Humans

I'VE got it very early, within the
first few hours" DR.. Topping said.
The subject displayed faint red
dening of the nostrils and had tine
merest symptoms, peppery feeling
in his nose"
Sterile skinned milk was used
for nasal washings. The washings
then were administered intranasally
to prisoner volunteers who previ-
ously has been isolated six to eight
days. All five developed cold Symp-
toms, one to a more severe degree
than the others.
Nasal washings from this subject
then were given by innoculation to
embryonated hens eggs, together
with 1000 units of penicillin and 100
units of streptomycin.
Consistent symptoms.
The fluid of the eggs allantoic
cavity was passed to another egg
and the agent was found still vigor-
Gus after seven such passages in
one substrain used Other sub
strains produced less satisfactory
results.
OF 60 volunteers in eight groups
given the egg fluid containing the
agent. ST have developed consist
ent group of cold symptoms, the
doctors reported.
During the same period. 48 "con-
troll" volunteers were given egg
fluids which did not contain the
agent. They remained we'll except
for mild, transient nasal irritation
in 25 to so per cent of them.
So far. the agent has not pro-
duced visible reaction when sub
lected to standard laboratory tests.
Only the electron microscope has
shown it-and then only to the ex-
tent of revealing its gross appear
ance.
Further, it has failed to produce
symptoms in several strains of mice
rats. hamsters. cotton rats, guinea
pigs and rabbits.
Tests to Continue.
The experiments at Lorton will
continue, DR.. Topping said. He said
the institution was highly appre-
ciative OF the cooperation of the
District Department of Corrections
and the prisoners.
More than 500 inmates have VOL
unteered for the cold experiments.
and about 200 have been used, he
said. He pointed out colds, as
humans know them, are not found
i'll animals, with the exception of
the chimpanzee, which is expensive
and difficult to obtain and to main
tain in a laboratory.
The prisoners accepted for the
experiments are given SO a week
spending money, considerably more
than the approximately 81 a week
they can earn in the prison indus
tries. DR.. Topping said. They are
highly interested in the work but
are told little to guard against their
suppressing true symptoms or dis
playing false ones through auto
suggestion, he added.
DR.. Atlas, who obtains most of
the nasal washings, said he finds
himself either catching cold or
getting over one most of the time.
Maybe he has had succession
of colds or maybe it has been a
recurrence of the same one-eveit-
ually. he and DR.. Topping hope to
determine this. For one of the many
things not known about cold Is
when 1t starts and ends.
