| virus detection in soils: a comparison of four recovery methods. | among nine eluents tested, 0.5% (w/v) isoelectric casein at ph 9.0 and 0.5% (w/v) non-fat dry milk (ph 9.0) were the most efficient in eluting poliovirus type 1 (sabin) from eustis fine sand. however, no significant difference was found between the overall (elution followed by concentration) virus recoveries by non-fat dry milk, isoelectric casein, beef extract, and glycine-edta methods. high overall recovery (75%) of low input (200 pfu) of viruses from 100 g of soil was achieved by the isoelect ... | 1979 | 230890 |
