ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method for culturing a virus including the steps of (A) providing cells from a cell line susceptible to infection by the virus and a specimen; (B) treating the cells with a compound of formula RC(O)Q, wherein Q is R, OR, OX or X, each R is independently hydrogen or a hydrocarbyl group containing 1 to about 10 carbon atoms and wherein X is hydrogen or a cation; (C) inoculating the treated cells with the specimen; and (D) incubating the inoculated cells to allow viral growth to proceed.
