Inactivation of enterovirus by glutaraldehyde.

چکیده
A study on the rate of inactivation by glutaraldehyde of coxsackievirus was conducted using different concentrations, temperatures, and pH values. It was found, that 2 percent glutaraldehyde at pH 7.4 and 25 C, as recommended for a sporicide, reduced the titer of infectious virus by 2 log10U in 1 min or less. The reduction was not negatively affected by high concentrations of organic matter (serum and animal spillings) in the reaction mixtures.

Coupling of peroxidase to poliovirus antibody: characteristics of the conjugates and their use in virus detection.
Antibody to poliovirus type 1 (Po-1) was coupled to peroxidase by use of glutaraldehyde or 4, 4' -difluoro,3, 3' -dinitro diphenyl sulfone. Glutaraldehyde was found to be the superior coupling agent, yielding conjugates that had up to 2.8 x 10(4) enzyme units/ml (75% of total enzyme input). Conjugates migrated as a single band when centrifuged in sucrose density gradients, demonstrating that th...

متن کاملTHE INACTIVATION OF ENTEROVIRUS INFECTIVITY BY THE SULFHYDRYL REAGENT p-CHLOROMERCURIBENZOATE
The infectivity of several enteroviruses was inactivated by the sulfhydryl reagent p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB). The rate of inactivation was dependent on the ionic environment in which the reaction was carried out. Inactivation of infectivity was reversed by the thiol compound, reduced glutathione. Under certain conditions, PCMB prevented the adsorption of some enteroviruses to monolayer cul...

The inactivation and unfolding of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) during denaturation by guanidinium chloride (GuHCl) under diverse conditions have been compared. Unfolding of the native conformation, as monitored by fluorescence and c.d. measurements, occurs in two stages with increasing GuHCI concentrations, and the inactivation approximately coincides with, but slightly precedes, the first stage...
