Assay of variola virus by the fluorescent cell-counting technique.
A quantitative assay for infective variola virus particles was developed which is based on the enumeration of cells containing fluorescent viral antigen after infection of McCoy cell monolayers. The direct fluorescent-antibody technique was employed to stain cells. The efficiency of virus adsorption was markedly enhanced by centrifugation of virus inoculum onto McCoy cell monolayers at 500 x g ...
متن کاملFluorescent cell-counting assay of yellow fever virus.
A quantitative assay of infective yellow fever virus particles was developed that is based on the enumeration of cells containing fluorescent viral antigen 24 hours after infection of coverslip McCoy cell cultures. The rapidity and efficiency of virus adsorption onto cell monolayers was markedly enhanced by centrifugation of virus inoculum. By this procedure, 95% of virus was adsorbed within 15...
متن کاملDevelopment of a High-Throughput Respiratory Syncytial Virus Fluorescent Focus-Based Microneutralization Assay
Neutralizing antibodies specific for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) represent a major protective mechanism against RSV infection, as demonstrated by the efficacy of the immune-prophylactic monoclonal antibody palivizumab in preventing RSV-associated lower respiratory tract infections in premature infants. Accordingly, the RSV neutralization assay has become a key functional method to assess ...
متن کاملPolyadenylation-dependent screening assay for respiratory syncytial virus RNA transcriptase activity and identification of an inhibitor.
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a multi-subunit ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex that, in addition to synthesizing the full 15 222 nt viral genomic RNA, is able to synthesize all 10 viral mRNAs. We have prepared crude RNP from RSV-infected HEp-2 cells, based on a method previously used for Newcastle disease virus, and established a novel polyadenylation-dep...
