Effect on Host |
Cell enlargement and clustering of rounded cells in cell culture; plaques with rounding and eventual sloughing. |
Recommended Host |
Production Host: Human TK- cells (provided by the depositor (Dr. Zhiya Yu). Virus can be propagated in numerous cell lines (see Alternate Hosts)). Production Host: ?Human TK- cells (provided by the depositor (Dr. Zhiya Yu). Virus can be propagated in numerous cell lines (see Alternate Hosts).) Alternate Hosts: BS-C-1 cells (ATCC CCL-26), Vero cells (ATCC CCL-81), and HeLa cells (ATCC CCL-2) |
Growth Conditions |
Plant cells 24-48 hours in advance and infect when cultures are 80-90% confluent. Process virus by freeze/ thawing it three times by vapor phase of liquid nitrogen and 37.0°C water bath (vortex mixing on high speed for 20 seconds between each freeze/ thaw), sonicating with 40% power for 30 seconds, and then a final vortex mixing on high speed for 30 seconds. Remove cell growth medium from the flask, and inoculate with a small volume of virus stock diluted in virus growth medium to provide a MOI of about 1-3. Adsorb 1-2 hours at 37.0°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere, rocking every 15-20 minutes to redistribute inoculum. End adsorption by adding virus growth medium. Incubate infected culture for 1-3 days at 37.0°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere, until CPE are well advanced through 90% of the culture. |
