title: A simple method for concentration of enteroviruses and rotaviruses from cell culture harvests using membrane filters.
abstract: Organic compounds in cell culture harvests known as membrane-coating components (MCC) prevent virus adsorption to membrane filters. Blending cell culture harvests with fluorocarbon removed the MCC and permitted adsorption of virus in acidified harvests to epoxy-fiberglass filters. Subsequent elution with high pH buffer resulted in recovery of greater than 90% of the virus with concentrations of up to 100-fold.
