After infecting the Vero E6 cells by nasal/throat swabs collected from SARS patients, we studied the SARS-associated virus by electron microscopy and molecular biological technique. The results show that the diameter of newly isolated virus is about 50 nm without envelope or 100 nm with envelope. The virus was proved to be a new coronavirus by RT-PCR and it responded positively to convalescent-phase serum specimen from SARS patients, which is the evidence that this new virus is etiologically linked to the outbreak of SARS. The morphogenesis and distribution of the virus are also discussed in this article.
用从非典患者采集的鼻/咽拭子感染Vero E6细胞后,我们通过电子显微镜和分子生物学技术研究了与非典相关的病毒。结果显示,新分离出的病毒直径约为50纳米(无包膜)或100纳米(有包膜)。通过逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)证明该病毒为一种新型冠状病毒,并且它对非典患者的恢复期血清标本呈阳性反应,这是这种新病毒在病因上与非典爆发有关的证据。本文还讨论了该病毒的形态发生和分布情况。
