ABSTRACT:
Methods for measuring pathogen inactivation, and in particular, methods for measuring pathogen inactivation in blood and blood products after photochemical decontamination. The methods involve measuring the inhibition of template-dependent enzymatic synthesis of nucleic acid following the addition of compounds that add covalently to nucleic acid.
