Parvovirus
Reports on parvovirus findings from North Carolina State University provide new insights
Published in Genetics and Environmental Business Week, December 24th, 2009
According to recent research from the United States, "In previous work, we identified two trimeric peptide ligands (designated WRW and KYY), which bound specifically to porcine parvovirus (PPV) and demonstrated their ability to capture and remove the virus from solutions containing 7.5% human blood plasma. This article examines the influences of peptide density and the presence of all ethylene oxide spacer arm on the efficiency of virus capture using these two ligands."
"The WRW peptide bound the most virus from plasma solutions at the lowest peptide density tested (0.008 mmol/g dry resin), and binding was enhanced by the presence of the spacer arm. On the other hand,...
