Summary The faint plaques formed with HEP Flury strain of rabies virus in chick embryo cells by the original method were thought ascribable to acid production from virus-infected cells coupled by the weak buffering action of the agar overlay medium. When the overlay medium contained appropriate concentrations of alkalies, clear plaques could be observed. The optimal conditions were (i) incorporation of 0.02% NaOH, 0.0025m Tris-HCl buffer of pH 8.2 and 2% calf serum in the base overlay medium, and (ii) neutral red staining after 7 days' incubation at 35
