Abstract:
Objective To establish the crystal violet plaque assay for detection of virus titer of recombined Tiantan vaccinia AIDS vaccine,and provide more stable method of virus titration for rTV AIDS Vaccine.Methods Optimized the concentration of Vero cells,the time and temperature of virus adsorption,and the time of determination for CPE,then established the crystal violet plaque assay for virus titer of rTV.Counting and analysis the plaques by BioSpot Reader,then analyzed the relativity of plaques counted with BioSpot Reader and manual; Several lots rTV AIDS Vaccine and Tiantan vaccinia were titrated by the method of plaque formation-hemadsorption assay,neutral red and crystal violet plaque assay,then analyzed the relativity of the results of three methods ; meanwhile,the virus titer of samples were determine repeatedly by the crystal violet plaque assay,then calculated the coefficient of variation( CV),and verified the precision of the method; SPSS17.0 was used in statistical analysis of the experimental results.Results When the concentration of Vero cells was 5.0×105-9.O×105 cells/ml,virus been adsorbesd 2 h at 37℃,then cultivated 72 h after adding the culture medium containing methyl cellulose.Plaques counted by BioSpot Reader was highly related with counted by manual (r =0.985),so BioSpot Reader counting can objectively reflect the virus plaques with various size,and reduce the error by manual counting; compared the virus titration for different lots of rTV AIDS vaccine and Tiantan vaccinia with three methods,the crystal violet plaque assay was highly related with plaque formation-hemadsorption assay (r =0.997,P＜0.01 ) and neutral red plaque assay(r=0.980,P＜0.01 ).Conclusion Crystal violet plaque assay was established for virus titration of rTV AIDS Vaccine.
