Isolation of virus-like particles from sera of anti-HCV positive patients and their ultrastructural characterization are reported. Particles were identified in sera of 5 out of 6 patients tested. Immunoelectron microscopy assay revealed small aggregates of viral particles. Size and morphological criteria suggest that these particles can be classified as Togaviridae.

Abstract
Isolation of virus-like particles from sera of anti-HCV positive patients and their ultrastructural characterization are reported. Particles were identified in sera of 5 out of 6 patients tested. Immunoelectron microscopy assay revealed small aggregates of viral particles. Size and morphological criteria suggest that these particles can be classified as Togaviridae.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
