Biochemical and biophysical characterization of light and heavy density hepatitis A virus particles: evidence HAV is an RNA virus.
Heavy density HAV was also shown to be sensitive to low concentrations of RNase. The results of these biophysical and biochemical studies strongly support the notion HAV is an enterovirus.
