Hydrophobic Interactions Involved in Attachment of a Baculovirus to Hydrophobic Surfaces

Natural Evironment Research Council, Institute of Virology, Oxford OX1 3SR, England

ABSTRACT

The hydrophobic interactions of Trichoplusia ni nuclear polyhedrosis virus were characterized by hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The determination of the hydrophobic force and some of the factors that influence its size is discussed in relation to the attachment to leaf surfaces of polyhedra during their use as biological control agents against insect pests.
