Electron optical and buoyant density studies of hog cholera virus

  • Published:
Archiv für die gesamte Virusforschung Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Virus particles with a buoyant density between 1.14 and 1.20 g/ml, with a peak density of 1.15 to 1.16 g/ml were shown to cause hog cholera disease in pigs. In electron microscopic studies particles of two distinct sizes were demonstrated in these fractions. A lipid enveloped particle with an outer diameter of 39–40 mμ and an inner (core) diameter of 28–29 mμ was proposed to be hog cholera virus.
