Differentiation of filoviruses by electron microscopy

TW Geisbert, PB Jahrling - Virus research, 1995 - Elsevier
Cultured monolayers of MA-104, Vero 76, SW-13, and DBS-FRhL-2 cells were infected with
Marburg (MBG), Ebola-Sudan (EBO-S), Ebola-Zaire (EBO-Z), and Ebola-Reston (EBO-R)
viruses (Filoviridae, Filovirus) and examined by electron microscopy to provide
ultrastructural details of morphology and morphogenesis of these potential human
pathogens. Replication of each filovirus was seen in all cell systems employed. Filoviral
particles appeared to enter host cells by endocytosis. Filoviruses showed a similar …
