Whole-genome analyses of human adenovirus type 55 emerged in Tibet, Sichuan and Yunnan in China, in 2016
Fig 5
The effect of heat and ultraviolet treatment on the infectivity of HAdV-55.
The viruses were incubated for 30 minutes at 56°C or treated for ultraviolet irradiation at a wavelength of 254 nm for 30 minutes. (A) Viral DNA levels after treatment were determined by qPCR. (B) Viral titers in heat- or ultraviolet- treated virus samples were determined by infection on Hep-2 cells. Data were shown the means and standard errors of three replicate assays (* P < 0.05, compared with control). WT, XZ, SC and YN present HAdV-55 strains of Y16/SX/2011, LS89/Tibet/2016, SF04/SC/2016 and KM03/YN/2016 respectively.
