## Abstract A rapid simple method for the typing of wild HSV isolates based on selective inhibition of HSV‐2 replication by the pyrimidine analogue oxauracil (2H‐1,3‐oxazine‐2,6(3H)‐dione) has been developed. Chi‐square analysis of the results of typing of 30 wild strains by serum neutralization te

✦ Synopsis
Treatment of suckling mice with the pyrimidine analogue 2H-1,3-oxazine-2,6(3H)-dione (oxauracil) proved successful in reducing mortality associated with HSV-2-induced encephalitis. Oxauracil did not decrease mortality associated with HSV-1 infection; however, there was an increased survival time and a decrease in the amount of infectious virus recovered from the brains of HSV-1-infected animals.
