✦ Synopsis


Hepatitis A virus (HAV) strain HM175 derived after repeated subculture of persistently infected B-SC-1 cells caused a specific cytopathic effect upon acute infection of B-SC-1 cells. The virus formed visible plaques on B-SC-1 cell monolayers after 9 to 14 days of incubation at 34 degrees C, and virus can therefore be titrated by plaque assay. Virus could be re-isolated from plaques of infected cells, which allows the clonal isolation of HAV variants. The stability of a plaque-purified variant of HAV at elevated temperatures exceeded that of poliovirus type 1, but this variant is less stable than previously reported strains of HAV.

Most hepatitis A virus (HAV) replication in cell culture has been reported to be nonlytic and relatively slow. A rapidly replicating isolate of strain HM-175 from persistently infected, serially passed cell cultures (pHM-175) was found to induce a cytopathic effect. This observation allowed the deve

## Abstract Phenotypic assays of hepatitis B virus (HBV) play an important role in research related to the problem of drug resistance that emerges during long‐term nucleot(s)ide therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B. Most of the phenotypic assay systems that are available currently rely on t
