RESUMO
A flow cytometry-based assay was developed to assess the infective titer of two recombinant viruses: a recombinant herpes simplex type 2 (rHSV-2) and a recombinant canary pox (rALVAC.gfp). This method uses granularity of infected Vero and QT-35 cells, respectively, and correlates this to the infectious titer of virus samples. The percent of the cell populations with a high level of granularity could accurately be correlated to viral titers obtained through a traditional plaque assay, with R2 values greater than 0.8 using a semi-logarithmic scale. This approach offers a rapid, high-throughput method for infectious virus titration with similar accuracy to a traditional plaque assay.
