[Inhibition of adenovirus reproduction in cell culture by specific antibodies].

The capacity of specific antibodies to inhibit the reproduction of homo- and heterologous adenoviruses in Hela cell added to culture medium after virus adsorption was studied. The inhibiting effect of polyclonal antivirus and monospecific antihexone antibodies to homo- and heterologous adenoviruses was shown. The effect was more expressed when using antibodies to homologous antibodies.

[Research of modulation of CD95-mediated apoptosis in lymphoblastic MP-1 and BJAB cells infected by adenovirus and Epstein-Barr virus].

Model systems of infecting limphoblastic MP-1 and BJAB cells by Epstein-Barr virus, 5 serotype adenovirus and double infection are developed. A rather high level of accumulation of DNA of these viruses in the cells in dynamics at monoinfection and inhibition interference at multi-infection was shown by PCR method. The influence of virus infection on proliferative activity was studied.

[Detection of antigen-antibody interaction of human adenovirus by the method of surface plasmon resonance].

A possibility to detect adenoviral protein--hexon, using specific antibodies by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was demonstrated. The hexon of the human adenovirus 2 (Ad2) binds to antibodies immobilized on the sensor surface treated by KNCS and protein A Staphylococcus aureus. The specificity of antihexon antibodies was demonstrated by indirect method of fluorescent antibodies (MFA) and cellular variant of the immunoassay (cELISA).

[Manifestation of polylysogeny in Pseudomonas vignae].

Ultraviolet irradiation and treatment with mitomycin C demonstrated that a culture of Ps. vignae, strain 1025, was polylysogenic, as electron microscopic preparations of phagolysates revealed two types of virus particles: "large" with a hexagonal head of 700 A in diameter, and "small" with a round head of 500 A in diameter. Subcultivation of the test and indicator cultures showed in both cases formation of particles of these phages, the content of "small" virions increasing with the number of passages of negative colonies.
