Abstract
AGENTS apparently capable of causing morphological transformation in baby hamster kidney cells BHK21–C13 (ref. 1) have been isolated from both healthy and diseased British red squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris leucourus). Similar agents have been isolated both from seemingly healthy and from diseased grey squirrels (S. carolinensis).
