Development of a novel plaque reduction neutralisation test for hantavirus infection
In the Americas, hantaviruses cause severe cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) with a high fatality rate. Hantavirus infection is commonly diagnosed using serologic techniques and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. This paper presents a novel plaque reduction neutralisation test (PRNT) for detecting antibodies to Brazilian hantavirus. Using PRNT, plaque detection was enhanced by addin...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Plaque Reduction Assay as an Antiphage Activity Evaluation Method
Background: Antiviral screening of newly isolated or synthesized compounds is an important matter which requires a reliable antiviral test. In order to address this issue, the development of a rapid antiphage test has been conducted. To achieve this goal, the antiphage activity of three antiviral drugs (Acyclovir, Lamivudine and Trifluridin) against phage CP51 which infects Bacillus cereus (ATC...
متن کاملA plaque reduction test for dengue virus neutralizing antibodies.
The need for an efficient, practical, and accurate laboratory method for measuring dengue virus neutralizing antibody has been recognized by virologists concerned with arboviruses. Methods previously used include measurement of log neutralization indices by serial virus dilution tests with constant serum in suckling mice (1) or tissue culture tubes (2), or measurement of serum titers in sucklin...
متن کاملDevelopment of a novel efficient fluorescence-based plaque reduction microneutralization assay for measles virus immunity.
The measurement of functional measles virus-specific neutralizing antibodies is of considerable interest for vaccine-related research. In this study, we developed and standardized a simple, rapid, highly sensitive, and reproducible fluorescence-based plaque reduction microneutralization (PRMN) assay with visual and automated readout, using a recombinant measles virus engineered to express enhan...
متن کاملA Novel Test Cost Reduction Approach for Test Suites
Software utilization has gained momentum over the last decade. The development of such software is largely dependent on testing the product for its reliability. With software testing being the major cost driver in the development of software, optimizing the test cost is a major problem in software organization. Recently, attempts have been made through heuristics and evolutionary algorithms lik...
