I. Vassias et al., AN IN-SITU HYBRIDIZATION TECHNIQUE FOR THE STUDY OF B19 HUMAN PARVOVIRUS REPLICATION IN BONE-MARROW CELL-CULTURES, Journal of virological methods, 44(2-3), 1993, pp. 329-338
An in situ hybridization technique using digoxigenin labelling was dev
eloped to study B19 infection. By using appropriate DNA probes, transc
ription of structural and non-structural genes was detected in bone ma
rrow cell cultures. Such a simple system is useful to the study of B19
-cell interactions in non-permissive cell lines.
