Abstract

Monoolein, monolinolein and (most strongly) gamma-linolenyl alcohol inactivate ASF virus and inhibit its replication in Vero cells at 25 micrograms/ml while at 10 micrograms/ml no inactivation occurs but inhibition of replication in tissue culture is observed. This suggests two possibly different action mechanisms.
