Guinea pig embryo cells may aid coxsackievirus isolation in research settings; leaves open adoption for routine clinical diagnostics.
Does the use of guinea pig embryo cell cultures allow for the isolation and propagation of group A coxsackieviruses?
Guinea pig embryo cells provide a sensitive alternative to suckling mice for the isolation and propagation of certain group A coxsackieviruses.
