RESUMEN

The interaction of ultraviolet radiation and virus particles of Western Equine Encephalomyelitis Virus (WEE) and Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) which have respectively RNA of positive (RNA+) and negative (RNA-) polarity as genomes, was studied using purified particles. The purified virus preparations were irradiated at a range from 1,000 to 6,000 joules per m2 with posterior analysis of their propagation in primary cell cultures of chicken embryos. It could be observed that a radiation dose of to 4,500 joules per m2 could induce 10(9) TCID50 per ml as minimal loss of titer for WEE virus and NDV. The hemagglutination assay was used as a toll to evaluate the alterations caused by UV radiation on the molecular arrangement of virus proteins. Alterations of the virus hemagglutinating activity were only observe when radiation levels higher than 6,000 joules per m2 were used. The results from hemolysis assays showed the importance of the loss of the envelope integrity and the damages to nucleoprotein structures during the inactivation process, when we used radiation doses higher than 6,000 joules per m2. This model of study can increase our comprehension of the radiation effects on the cell physiology and biological components of the cell membranes.
