Syncytium inducing strains

One of the first standardized phenotypic tests was the HeLa CD4+ plaque reduction assay (4). Although this assay is easy to perform, inexpensive and has a high reproducibility, it is rather labor-intensive and is only suitable for syncytium-inducing (SI) strains. Most patient isolates contain nonsyncytium-inducing (NSI) strains or a mixture of SI and NSI strains. The necessary in vitro cultivation of patient isolates to obtain a high-titer standardized Sl-inocu-lum selects for a subpopulation of SI variants. [Pg.224]
