title: Fast isolation of recombinant baculovirus by antibody screening.
abstract: The use of a rapid and efficient scheme for the detection and purification of recombinant baculoviruses is described. The method is based on the detection of foreign proteins in cellular lysates of baculovirus-infected insect cells by antibody screening. The recombinant virus is purified by repeated serial dilutions. The method allows the identification and purification of recombinant viruses within two to three weeks.
