Effect of -propiolactone on Sendai virus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The biological properties (infectivity, hemagglutination, hemolysis, cell fusion, neuraminidase) of Sendai virus were dissociated on the basis of sensitivity to beta-propiolactone, by freeze-thawing, by heating at different temperatures, and by adsorption-elution with formalinized chicken erythrocytes. Possible mechanisms whereby beta-propiolactone selectively destroys viral infectivity are discussed.

Enhancement of Sendai Virus-mediated Cell Fusion by Cupric Ions
The effect of divalent cations on cell fusion by concentrated Sendai virus, inactivated by beta-propiolactone, was investigated using Vero and mouse L-929 cells in monolayers. With both cell lines, which are normally resistant to exogenous viral fusion, Cu(2+) in sublethal concentrations was found to promote polykaryon formation to a marked degree. The simultaneous presence of Cu(2+) and virus ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the effects of concentration, duration and temperature of incubation with Beta-Propiolactone on inactivation of cell-derived rabies virus
Introduction: During the production process of vaccines against viral diseases, virus inactivation plays a crucial role. β-Propiolactone (BPL) is a compound that is frequently used for inactivation of viruses and production of the vaccines against viral diseases such as rabies. In this study, the effects of concentration of BPL as well as the duration and temperature of incubation with BPL on ...
متن کاملSurface modifications of influenza proteins upon virus inactivation by β-propiolactone*
Inactivation of intact influenza viruses using formaldehyde or β-propiolactone (BPL) is essential for vaccine production and safety. The extent of chemical modifications of such reagents on viral proteins needs to be extensively investigated to better control the reactions and quality of vaccines. We have evaluated the effect of BPL inactivation on two candidate re-assortant vaccines (NIBRG-121...
متن کاملRescue of infectious SV40 after fusion between dfferent SV 40-transformed cells.
We have previously reported' activation of infectious SV40 in transformed cell types of various origins after fusion with susceptible African green monkey kidney cells (AGMK). In the same report, we described failure to activate SV40 after fusion of AGMK cells with two sublines of SV40-transformed human cells (W98VaC and WI26Va4) and cultures originating from four clones of SV40-transformed gre...
متن کاملInactivation of rabies virus in reagents used for the fluorescent rabies antibody test.
Procedures for inactivating rabies virus in reagents used for the fluorescent rabies antibody test are described. Mouse brain adsorbing suspensions containing greater than or equal to 10(9) 50% lethal doses of virus per ml were rendered noninfectious by treatment with 0.1% beta-propiolactone or by heating at 56 degrees for greater than or equal to 30 min. Viable virus in tissue impression smear...
