The kinetics of UV inactivation of the tick-borne Kemerovo (strain R-10) and Lipovnik (strain Lip-91) viruses which have been preliminarily classified as possible members of the Reovirus group was examined. Reovirus 3 and Sindbis virus served as reference double-stranded RNA and single-stranded RNA viruses, respectively. The parameters of UV inresembled those of Reovirus 3. This is consistent with their tentative classification as reovirus-like viruses.
