Supplementation of culture medium with MgSO4 or Na2SO4 in millimolar concentrations caused an enhanced measles virus (MV) yield from cultured quail embryo cells. MgSO4 at 25-50 mM concentrations exhibited the most pronounced and consistent stimulatory effect. MV infectivity increases ranged from 2- to 200-fold; the effect was highly reproducible for stationary monolayer, roller or microcarrier-grown cell culture types. MgSO4 also improved MV plaque development and caused MV plaque size enlargement on Vero cell monolayers. At mM concentrations MgSO4 was not operative as a MV thermostabilizing agent; rather, salt-induced enhancement of MV yields appeared to be due to intracellular events, e.g., augmented viral protein synthesis. |
