Abstract:
A virus adsorption-elution (viradel) procedure was modified and evaluated for the concentration of influenza virus from water. Influent pH, flow rate, eluent pH and composition, and a second-step concentration method were evaluated. The viradel procedure in combination with a chicken erythrocyte adsorption technique resulted in up to 3200-fold concentration of influenza virus from 100 liters of tap water.
