[Cytotoxicity of ferric chloride used as an adjuvant of organic acid precipitation].
The objective of this study was the amelioration of the organic acid precipitation technique currently used as a secondary stage for viruses concentration using ferric chloride (FeCl3) as an adjuvant. To carry out this work successfully, we have studied the cytotoxicity effect of FeCl3 towards cell lines usually used for the investigation of enteric viruses. Two kinds of african green monkey kidney cells, MA104 and BGM, were used as a cellular model. The results showed that optimum concentration of FeCl3 for either BGM or MA104 cell survival and organic acid precipitation varies from 0.5 to 1 mM. The cytotoxicity test used in this work was simple, easy to realize and gives an appreciable information about the cytotoxicity dose of a given biological and chemical product.

[A method for recovery of enteroviruses from milk].
A method of detection of enteric viruses in milk was studied. The high protein content of milk and the protein nature of enterovirus allowed the detection of these viruses using the organic acid flocculation method. The poliovirus type 1 (Mahoney strains) and the E.C.H.O.1 isolated from the environment were used as virus model and were inoculated to creamed, half-creamed and whole UHT commercialized milk. The method consists on a milk sample clarification with acid precipitation and centrifugation. The clarified extract is reduced to a final volume of 10 to 15 ml after addition of beef extract powder and protein precipitation. This technique allows the recovery of 26 to 36% of poliovirus type 1 and 10 to 46% of E.C.H.O.1 viruses. In this work, the ferric chloride (FeCl3), added in 0.5 to 1 mM final concentration, was used as an adjuvant for the organic acid precipitation.
