burst size

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The burst size describes the number of newly formed virions in an infected host cell .

properties

The burst size depends , among other things, on the virus type , the infected host species , the cell type within the host species, the absence of antivirals and the general nutritional and health status of the infected cell. The number of infected cells in an organism and the respective burst size affect the virus titer and possibly the viral load in this organism. If the multiplicity of infection is high , the burst size can be influenced.

Examples

The influenza virus generates burst sizes in embryonated chicken eggs or cell cultures of around 1,000 to around 19,000 daughter virions per infected cell ; with SIV , the burst sizes range from 13,000 to 59,000 virions per infected cell.
