Abstract
The present paper describes a modified method for cell culture staining with hemalumeosin. Cell culture staining permits a cytological examination of bouth normal cells and of cells showing a marked cytopathic effect (CPE) caused by different viruses. For a sharp contrastive staining of cell parts and a clear demonstration of viral CPEs such preparations have proven to be the most suitable demonstration teaching tool in medical course virology classes.
