We know, since the time of Pasteur, that repeated passage of rabies street virus from rabbit to rabbit after intracerebral inoculation, leads to a modification of its effect and the appearance of mutative characters. This takes place at a variable period of time depending upon the strain employed. The irreversibility and the permanence of these characters has led to the name of “fixed virus” once the street virus has become adapted for the rabbit.
