Study Notes
Viral Morphology
- Viruses have morphology characterized by the presence of RNA or DNA particles, depending on the type of virus.
Measurement of Viruses
- The size of viruses is typically measured in nanometers.
Inoculation of Coxackievirus
- Coxackievirus is usually inoculated in suckling mice.
Source of Complement in Wasserman Test
- The source of complement in the Wasserman test is the guinea pig.
Ethylene Oxide Sterilization
- Ethylene oxide is used for sterilization of materials that are damaged by heat, such as plastics, rubber, blankets, pharmaceutical products, and heart-lung machines.
- It is lethal to vegetative bacteria and viruses.
- It has rapid diffusion into dry and porous materials.
Examination of Viruses
- Viruses are typically examined using an electron microscope (EM).
