Tissue explants used for enhancement of herpesvirus isolations.

Herpesvirus recovery from normal and experimentally infected simian tissues prepared into 10 to 20% homogenates was compared with that obtained by explanting these same tissues. The explant procedure was by far the more sensitive of the two methods. As a result, 8 herpesvirus isolations were obtained by conventional virus isolation procedures in contrast to 74 isolates when explants were made from these same tissue sources. There is also evidence to suggest that the explant method is more sensitive than the use of tissue homogenates for recovery of other viruses as well.

Novel preparation of cardiolipin from beef heart.

A new method is described for the isolation of beef heart cardiolipin. A lipid-protein complex, rich in cardiolipin, is obtained by a one-step solvent fractionation of the tissue total lipid extract. Cardiolipin in the complex is largely freed of protein by salt denaturation and is further purified by gel filtration on Sephadex LH-20 followed by column chromatography on bicarbonate-treated silicic acid. The highly purified product is obtained as the sodium salt in a yield of 85-100 mg/100 g of fresh tissue.
