Description
Penetration of the KOS strain of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and the MS and 333 strains of herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) into HEp-2 cells at pH 6.3 was at least 100-fold less efficient than at pH 7.4. Penetration of two low passage clinical isolates was completely blocked at pH 6.3. The syncytium-forming
