Isoelectric focusing of herpes simplex virus
Abstract
Herpes simplex virus was inserted into a preformed stable pH gradient and electrofocused for about one hour. Dextran was used as the density gradient forming agent. Virions banded at pH 4.9+/-0.1 and nucleocapsids at 4.1+/-0.05. About 10-20 per cent of infective virus was recovered.
