Comments
ATCC® VR-1825PQ™ is a high-titer, live virus suspended in 50 mM Tris-HCl + 150 mM NaCl + 1 mM EDTA + dH2O. This product was prepared from ATCC® VR-1825™ via concentration through a sucrose cushion.
Effect on Host
CPE, refractile rounding and sloughing
Recommended Host
RD cells (ATCC® CCL-136™)
Growth Conditions
Temperature: 33°C
Recommendations for Infection: Plate cells 16-24 hours prior to infection and infect when cultures are 80-90% confluent. Remove medium and inoculate with a small volume of virus (e.g. 1 mL per 25 cm2) diluted to provide an optimal MOI (e.g. 0.01). Adsorb 1-2 hours at 33°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere, rocking continuously at 0.5 rpm. End adsorption by adding virus growth medium.
Incubation: 2-3 days at 33°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere, until CPE is progressed through 80% of the monolayer.
