General Virology Applications
Viral Growth/Titration
Viral titration assays allow quantification of virus concentration and production and isolation of purified virus. BioTek Imaging and Microscopy instruments with Gen5 Image Analysis Software automate viral growth and titration assays.
- Detection of CPE
- Calculation of TCID50
- Fluorescent FFA
- Plaque assay
Viral Replication Kinetics
Viral replication and growth kinetics provide key information for understanding virus-host interactions. BioTek Imaging and Microscopy instruments and Automation accessories provide live cell imaging and analysis capabilities.
- Viral growth kinetics
- Subcellular localization during virus lifecycle
- Replication complexes
Viral Detection
For both basic research and clinical applications, the ability to quickly detect virus in a sample is key to any virology pipeline. With BioTek Imaging and Detection instruments, virus can be detected using a variety of methods, while BioTek Liquid Handlers and Stackers increase assay efficiency and throughput.
- Rapid ELISA screen
- Fluorescent detection of immunolabed/reporter strains
- Screening antibodies for viral detection
