Effect of disinfectants on variola virus in cell culture [PDF]
Twenty kinds of disinfectants were examined for ability to inactivate variola virus. Cytopathic effect and plaque formation on monolayer cultures of an established monkey kidney cell line were used as indicators of virus inactivation. A micromethod using microplate cultures, and not requiring a CO2 incubator, was adopted.

An Antigenically Atypical Strain of Variola Virus
The Kuwait-5-67 strain of variola virus, although indistinguishable from variola virus in its other properties, behaved atypically in immuno-diffusion tests with antivaccinia serum. The precipitation line pattern produced was similar to that of cowpox virus but lacked one of the main precipitation bands given by all other strains of variola, alastrim ...

Immunofluorescence staining for detection of variola virus [PDF]
In September 1975 Bangladesh was the only country in the world with endemic variola major, and the eradication of the disease was imminent. A rapid and accurate laboratory diagnostic method was required to supplement immunodiffusion in agar gel and culture on chorioallantoic membrane of embryonated egg available at the Institute of Public Health in ...

Assay of Variola Virus by the Fluorescent Cell-Counting Technique [PDF]
A quantitative assay for infective variola virus particles was developed which is based on the enumeration of cells containing fluorescent viral antigen after infection of McCoy cell monolayers. The direct fluorescent-antibody technique was employed to stain cells.

Neutralization Determinants on Poxviruses
Smallpox was a highly contagious disease caused by the variola virus. The disease affected millions of people over thousands of years and variola virus ranked as one of the deadliest viruses in human history. The complete eradication of smallpox in 1980,

Development of a High-Content Orthopoxvirus Infectivity and Neutralization Assays. [PDF]
Currently, a number of assays measure Orthopoxvirus neutralization with serum from individuals, vaccinated against smallpox. In addition to the traditional plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT), newer higher throughput assays are based on ...
