Mode of initiation of cell infection with sludge-associated poliovirus.

R L Ward, C S Ashley
PMCID: PMC243485  PMID: 229768

Abstract

Association with sludge solids did not allow poliovirus to enter cells other than through the normal receptor-mediated route. This implies that the infectivities of sludge-encapsulated virions are masked until their exposure permits binding to cell surface receptors.
