In vitro culturability of Murman strain of Tuleniy flavivirus isolated recently in the northern regions of the USSR was studied. Stable PS pig kidney line was found suitable as a primary sensitive cell substrate for the isolation, proliferation and serial propagation of the virus. The pronounced pathogenicity of the virus to PS cells permits the testing of its infective activity comparable with i.c. titrations on mice, VNT in vitro and the plaquing technique. PS line is suitable for the demonstration and identification of the virus antigen and/or for the study of reproduction of the virus on cellular level using the technique of immunofluorescence.

Complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) in the form of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) has emerged as an immune complication of systemic adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene transfer that was unforeseen based on nonclinical studies. Understanding this phenomenon in the clinical setting has been limited by incomplete data and a lack of uniform diagnostic and reporting criteria. While apparently rare based on available information, AAV-associated TMA/aHUS can pose a substantial risk to patients including one published fatality.

In this context, we reported for the first time the design and development of a self-assembled nanoantiviral pesticide based on the star polycation (SPc) and the broad-spectrum fungicide/antiviral agent seboctylamine for field control of (SMV), a highly destructive plant virus in soybean crops. The SPc could self-assemble with seboctylamine through hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces, and the complexation with SPc reduced the particle size of seboctylamine to form a spherical seboctylamine/SPc complex. In addition, the contact angle of seboctylamine decreased, and its retention increased with the aid of SPc, indicating excellent wetting properties and strong leaf surface adhesion performance.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a versatile viral vector technology that can be engineered for specific functionality in vaccine and gene therapy applications. One of the major challenges in AAV production is the need for a GMP-ready platform-based approach to downstream processing, as this would lead to a standardized method for multiple products. Chromatography has huge potential in AAV purification, as it is a scalable method that would enable manufacturing to a high degree of purity, potency, and consistency.

Unlabelled: a natural inhabitant of the human body, is a promising candidate vehicle for vaccine delivery. An obstacle in developing bacterial delivery vehicles is generating a production strain that lacks antibiotic resistance genes and contains minimal foreign DNA. To deal with this obstacle, we have constructed a finetuned, inducible two-plasmid CRISPR/Cas9-system for chromosomal gene insertion in .
