A flow cytometry-based assay for quantifying non-plaque forming strains of yellow fever virus. [PDF]
Primary clinical isolates of yellow fever virus can be difficult to quantitate by standard in vitro methods because they may not form discernable plaques or induce a measurable cytopathic effect (CPE) on cell monolayers. In our hands, the Dakar strain of
