Reversible inhibition of Sindbis virus penetration in hypertonic medium.
Under hypertonic conditions, the penetration of baby hamster kidney cells by Sindbis virus was inhibited. Virus became cell associated, but remained susceptible to neutralization by specific antiserum and to removal by elution. When cells were returned to isotonicity, inhibition was reversed.
