Quantitation of HIV-1 activity in tissue culture supernatants: effects of culture condition on syncytial assays and virus production

G Spickett et al. J Virol Methods. 1989 Apr-May.

Abstract

We have compared the infectivity titres, reverse transcriptase levels and antigen titres in the supernatants from persistently infected cell lines that produce a variety of HIV-1 isolates. We found a poor correlation between the different assays, and a variability in viral activity dependent on culture medium.
