Ultraviolet light enhanced reactivation of a mammalian virus

When CV-1 mammalian cells are lightly UV-irradiated before infection with UV-irradiated herpes simplex virus, an increase in survival (UV-reactivation) of this virus is observed. The doses of UV to the cells necessary for maximizing UV-reactivation were a factor of about 10 lower than those previous...

Summary:When CV-1 mammalian cells are lightly UV-irradiated before infection with UV-irradiated herpes simplex virus, an increase in survival (UV-reactivation) of this virus is observed. The doses of UV to the cells necessary for maximizing UV-reactivation were a factor of about 10 lower than those previously reported for bacteriophage-bacteria systems.
