Erythroid cell differentiation: murine erythroleukemia cell variant with unique pattern of induction by polar compounds.

abstract：:Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major human pathogen. In addition to its importance in human health, there is growing interest in adapting HBV and other viruses for drug delivery and other nanotechnological applications. In both contexts, precise biophysical characterization of these large macromolecular particles is fun...
