Identification of DNA viruses by membrane filter hybridization.

P Stålhandske, U Pettersson
PMCID: PMC272179  PMID: 6279697

Abstract

The use of membrane filter hybridization for the identification of DNA viruses is described. We designed and used a procedure for identification of herpes simplex virus. This method can discriminate between herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 in a simple way.
