Preliminary data on the survival length of enteroviruses in nonalcoholic beverages. Inactivating action of some medicinal herb infusions.

Vaccinal poliovirus type 1, Coxsackie B3 virus and echovirus type 1 survived in mineral water, camomile infusion and coffee for over 20 days. In contrast, Chinese tea, lime and mint infusions had a possibly transient inactivating effect on the same enterovirus strains. There was a direct relationship between the concentration of the infusions and their inactivating action. The vaccinal poliovirus was more sensitive than Coxsackie and echoviruses to the inactivating action of the infusions.

Enterovirus contamination of swimming pool water; correlation with bacteriological indicators.

The investigation of swimming pool water samples revealed the presence of enteroviruses (in 28.4% of the samples), as well as of coliforms, fecal streptococci, staphylococci and Candida albicans (in proportions ranging from 37.0 to 86.9% of the samples). A direct correlation could be established between the extent of viral and microbial pollution and the length of stagnation of the swimming pool water.

Coxsackie A virus-associated herpetiform angina.

Virological investigations were performed in 25 herpangina cases that occurred in a large urban centre in the summer season of 1982. Twelve Coxsackie A virus strains (10 Coxsackie A5 strains, one Coxsackie A4 and one Coxsackie A6 strain) could be isolated from 9 (36.0%) of the patients.
