Dounce Homogenisation
  1. Remove cells from the flasks by scraping with a disposable plastic scraper and poor into a Amount10 mL centrifuge tube.

Pellet the cells in a bench top centrifuge at Centrifigation2000 rpm Duration00:02:00 , remove supernatant.

2m
Resuspend the cells in equal volume TC water and transfer to glass homogeniser tube.
Insert teflon plunger into cordless drill, set drill on max speed.
Homogenise(20 strokes) inside Class II BSC cabinet.
Clarify resultant solution at Centrifigation13000 rpm in Eppendorf centrifuge for Duration00:01:00


1m
Stand for Duration00:05:00 to permit viruses to diffuse back into solution, from the debris, and provide an interface for the sampling of membrane associated viruses. Use supernatant for sample below.
