Use of integrated cell culture-PCR to evaluate the effectiveness of poliovirus inactivation by chlorine.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Current standards, based on cell culture assay, indicate that poliovirus is inactivated by 0.5 mg of free chlorine per liter after 2 min; however, integrated cell culture-PCR detected viruses for up to 8 min of exposure to the same chlorine concentration, requiring 10 min for complete inactivation. Thus, the contact time for chlorine disinfection of poliovirus is up to five times greater than previously thought.

Identification of RD and L20B Cell Lines Cross-Contamination by Multiplex SYBR-Green PCR in Poliovirus Laboratory
Background and Aims: World Health Organization Global Polio Laboratory Network (GPLN) plays a critical role in the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. Cell culture methods (mostly RD and L20B cell lines) have been used for Enteroviruses and polioviruses isolation, respectively. Cross-contamination among L20B and RD cell lines causes the problem in accuracy of poliovirus surveillance and decrea...
متن کاملStudy on inactivation kinetics of hepatitis A virus and enteroviruses with peracetic acid and chlorine. New ICC/PCR method to assess disinfection effectiveness.
The virucidal activity of chlorine-compounds was studied using hepatitis A virus (HAV) and Poliovirus 2 and comparing the disinfectant efficiency of peracetic acid. HAV presented a higher resistance to HClO than Poliovirus did. With ClO2 the inactivation times of HAV were markedly shorter. A comparison between these data and those resulting from the kinetics with peracetic acid (PA) showed that...
متن کاملInactivation of norovirus by chlorine disinfection of water.
In an effort to validate previous research suggesting remarkable resistance of norovirus to free chlorine disinfection, we characterized the disinfection response of purified and dispersed Norwalk virus (NV) by bench-scale free chlorine disinfection using RT-PCR for virus assays. The inactivation of NV by two doses of free chlorine (1 and 5mg/L) at pH 6 and 5 degrees C based on two RT-PCR assay...
متن کاملMechanisms of inactivation of poliovirus by chlorine dioxide and iodine.
Chlorine dioxide and iodine inactivated poliovirus more efficiently at pH 10.0 than at pH 6.0. Sedimentation analyses of viruses inactivated by chlorine dioxide and iodine at pH 10.9 showed that viral RNA separated from the capsids, resulting in the conversion of virions from 156S structures to 80S particles. The RNAs release from both chlorine dioxide- and iodine-inactivated viruses cosediment...
متن کاملEffect of ionic environment on the inactivation of poliovirus in water by chlorine.
The rate of inactivation of poliovirus in water by chlorine is strongly influenced by the pH, which in turn influences the relative amounts of HOCl and OCl- that are present and acting on the virus in the region of pH 6 to 10. The distribution of HOCl and OCl- is influenced to a lesser extent by the addition of NaCl. The major part of the sharp increase in disinfection rate seen with this salt ...
