The effect of nocodazole and taxol on IMV and EEV entry

Treatment	IMV		EEV
	No. of coresa	%b	No. of cores	%
Controlc	59.5  ± 20.9	100	68.8  ± 23.3	100
Nocodazole (10 μM)	54.0  ± 20.0	91	69.1  ± 25.1	101
Taxol (2 μM)	61.5  ± 22.9	103	68.6  ± 25.4	101

^a Average number of cores and S.D.s per cell after infection with IMV (MOI 50) or EEV (MOI 20); n = 30. In each case the amount of cores in the cytoplasm of 15 “small” and 15 “big” HeLa cells were counted. 

^b Percentage of control, the average amount of cores in untreated cells was taken as 100%. 

^c Control signifies no drug treatment.
