چکیده

The standardization and quantitative evaluation of an assay for myxoviruses, based on the enumeration of individual infected clone 1-5C-4 cells manifesting hemadsorption within 24 h of infection, are described. Hemadsorption was detectable earlier than immunofluorescence in infected cells or hemagglutinins in culture medium. The relationship between virus concentration and cells exhibiting hemadsorption was linear. The assay was highly precise, sensitive, and reproducible.

Assay of human interferon in Vero cells by several methods.

Four methods for the assay of human interferon in Vero cells were compared based on the inhibition of viral cytopathic effect (CPE) in tubes, the inhibition of CPE in microplates, the reduction of plaques, and the inhibition of quantitative hemadsorption. For inhibition of CPE, Sindbis virus, vesicular stomatitis virus, poliovirus type 2, and vaccinia virus were used for challenge. In the plaqu...

Hemadsorption immunosorbent technique for determination of mumps immunoglobulin M antibody.

We used hemadsorption immunosorbent technique (HIT) to detect mumps immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody. IgM from human sera was adsorbed into anti-human IgM-coated wells in plates, and mumps-specific IgM was detected by adding mumps virus hemagglutinin and guinea pig erythrocytes consecutively. Specific IgM-positive sera showed hemadsorption, whereas negative sera showed hemagglutination. All 81 p...

Hemadsorption-negative plaque test: new assay for rubella virus revealing a unique interference.

A simple and rapid plaque procedure has been developed for detecting and accurately assaying rubella virus in a noncytopathic virus-cell relationship. Plaque-formation is based on the development, in individual cells infected with rubella virus, of a unique type of intrinsic interference to infection with Newcastle disease virus. Rubella virus-infected cells challenged with Newcastle disease vi...

Quantitative Assessment of Mycoplasma Hemadsorption Activity by Flow Cytometry

A number of adherent mycoplasmas have developed highly complex polar structures that are involved in diverse aspects of the biology of these microorganisms and play a key role as virulence factors by promoting adhesion to host cells in the first stages of infection. Attachment activity of mycoplasma cells has been traditionally investigated by determining their hemadsorption ability to red bloo...

Solid-phase antibody capture hemadsorption assay for detection of hepatitis A virus immunoglobulin M antibodies.

A solid-phase antibody capture hemadsorption (SPACH) assay was developed to detect hepatitis A virus (HAV)-specific immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies in sera from humans recently infected with hepatitis. The assay is performed with microtiter plates coated with anti-human IgM antibodies to capture IgM antibodies from the test sera. HAV-specific IgM antibody is detected by the addition of HAV he...
