A portable device for the rapid concentration of viruses from natural freshwaters described and its performance in field use is evaluated. The system handled up to 500 litres of water in less than 90 min at a cost of only 2 pounds per sample. Where the samples contained sufficient bacteriophages for detection by direct plating the apparent phage recoveries were greater than 75%. Plant and animal viruses were also concentrated from waters with this system.
本文描述了一种用于从天然淡水中快速浓缩病毒的便携式设备，并评估了其在现场使用中的性能。该系统在不到90分钟内可处理多达500升水，每个样本成本仅为2英镑。如果样本中含有足够的噬菌体以便通过直接平板培养进行检测，噬菌体的表观回收率大于75%。该系统还能从水中浓缩植物和动物病毒。
