Table 1.

Cytotoxicity of extracts and direct inactivation of viruses.

Cells	CCIC₅₀^†		Virus	ED₅₀^‡
	Ultra Dry 100 Q extract (mg/ml)	Vax Sap extract (mg/ml)		Ultra Dry 100 Q extract (mg/ml)	Vax Sap extract (mg/ml)
L929	1.0 +/- 0.1	9.5 +/- 0.1	Reovirus	>1.0 +/- 0.1	>9.5 +/- 0.1

MA-104	1.0 +/- 0.1	9.5 +/- 0.5	Rhesus rotavirus	>1.0 +/- 0.1	>9.5 +/- 0.5

The results are presented as means of four experiments using triplicate samples in each experiment. See materials and methods for conditions for the assays. These data from the treatment of reovirus with Ultra Dry 100 Q are new but generated by repeating experiments previously published [47]. The experiments were repeated and the data are included to permit a direct comparison to the new data presented for reovirus treated with Vax Sap and rotavirus treated with either Ultra Dry 100 Q or Vax Sap.

^†

Loss of cell viability of 50% of treated cells after 96 h.

^‡

Inactivation of 50% of virus within 1 h.
