Rapid microbiological assay for chlorhydroxyquinoline that uses a cryogenically stored inoculum.

abstract：:Viral infections are among the main causes of death worldwide, and we lack antivirals for the majority of viruses. Heparin-like sulfated or sulfonated compounds have been known for decades for their ability to prevent infection by heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG)-dependent viruses but only in a reversible way. We h...
