conclusions therefore the non-infectious dlps were became infectious if introduced into the cytoplasm of permissive and cancerous cells, without passing attachment and entry process. results we attempt to avoid the attachment and entry of the rotavirus by using lipofectamine to mediate the delivery of viral particles directly into the cytoplasm. dlp was endocytosed into the cytoplasm following ...

conclusions there are few studies on the prevalence of viral hepatitis in the general population of iran. most of the reports are from specific groups of patients. further epidemiologic studies on the general population of iran are recommended to discover the real burden of viral hepatitis. context viral hepatitis is still considered as a major health concern. defining the extent of the burden ...

the population response of heliothis armigera larvae to nuclear polyhedrosis virus (npv) was investigated. the virus was introduced by permitting the larvae to feed on lettuce leaves. median lethal doses (ld50) were determined. the estimated ld50 values for the first, second, third, early, and late fourth larval instars were 5, 141, 1226, 5168 and 24553 polyhedra per larva respectively. in ...
